It's also a question of finding good material and interesting roles. I'm not the only actress out there, and good parts just don't fall into your lap that easily. But I like most of the films I've made recently and so I'm pretty positive about the future.

I feel my best when I'm happy.

If I showed you scripts from my first few movies, the descriptions of my characters all said 'the ugly girl'.

I, myself, am strange and unusual.

I was inspired by lots of people, certainly in acting and in writing and stuff, but I never wanted to be somebody else.

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.

Most of my wardrobe is vintage, and I've worn dresses to the Oscars that I got for $10.
