I think a lot of times people who jump from one movie to another don't enjoy their private life. It's a great way to escape reality. But I enjoy my life.
There are lots of great actresses who are great because they'll do anything.
Who's to say I can't find some great work when I'm 55 or 65?
Kindness can come from someone on Twitter, it can come from someone on the street, it can come from someone at work. Without kindness, I don't know what I would do. The greatest part of life is the simple things.
Sometimes I get intimidated by people, intellectuals, because I don't have a great education. The only thing I feel helps me compete with all these people, people with degrees from Harvard, that you're thrown in with and have to work with, is that I'm grounded.
I've had a great experience in the fashion business.
I'm just human, and I have great relationships with the people that work for me.
Having the option to be able to have a career and feel good about yourself as an individual and still be a great mother is definitely a possibility.
It's so funny to get a call from Dustin Hoffman because he has that great voice.
My girls have been a great support to me. I come to them when I need to make a decision; they love to watch me work.
The riskiest thing I have done in my fifties is to do a Polish accent for a new film. I had a great time working on it and two wonderful people to guide me. A dialect coach that I have known for thirty years and a Polish actor.
North Carolina has been so great because nobody asks me about work.
I still love finding the soul of the characters I play and defining who they are. This to me is my paint set, and the colors are always exciting to choose.
I had a whole bunch of very successful movies. I have worked with some incredible people - incredible.
