If a film is well made, then great, whatever it's about.

I got to work with Gena Rowlands when I did Night on Earth, and the movie was just you and someone else in a car, you're just hanging out. There's nobody else, just a walkie-talkie. It was a night shoot, and it was only a week or ten days. But it was incredible just being in her presence.

I want to be a good person, and a person that people enjoy working with, 'cause I certainly enjoy working with other people.

The fact that I got into acting at all was kind of fluke-ish. I loved movies, but I can't remember ever really wanting to be an actress, and I certainly didn't imagine ever being in a movie. I think I wanted to be a writer.

I thought it was a cool parallel. Being replaced by the young thing. I know that definitely happens in Hollywood. It's harder to find good roles, and suddenly there's new girls. I'm at that age I've been warned my whole life about.

I would love to someday do a play. I did one when I was very young in San Francisco, where I grew up. A girl can dream.

I think it's important to have as much as a normal life and take the time to get perspective because it only helps your work in the long run.
