Editing is not a part of the filmmaking process I've ever been privy to as an actress.

There really are three types of religious movies: the ones that make fun of it, the ones that vilify it and the ones that literally preach to the converted.

Do I pray? Yes. Prayer is very important to me.

I have a two-year-old who just turned three, and my four-year-old just turned five. I have the same irrational feelings taking them to pre-school. It's this charged combination of stress and joy and anxiety and excitement. When they're away, you've got a sudden loss of purpose and this ever-present fear about the kid's welfare. The departure of our children from our nest is not an easy thing.

I can't do Los Angeles. I've always been the anti-Barbie. I don't want to be in a place where almost every woman walks around with puffy lips, little noses and breasts large enough to nourish a small country.

There are some times when I think acting can be a noble profession. And when those rare roles come along, like Down to the Bone, you have the opportunity to be of service.

There's no wrong way to experience a film.
