girlfriend children years
I have not spent years in therapy; I tried therapy in my mid-twenties, and it did not go very well. I just thought, 'This is so not for me. I would rather talk to one of my girlfriends.' I'm not at a point in my life when I'm analyzing too much. I have young children, and I'm just pretty much crazed.
stars interesting age
I was never the ingenue, so hopefully that'll make it easier to age and still work. I know a lot of actors who are really dissatisfied with where they're at even though some of them are huge stars and I feel like, 'Oh, my God, you're at the top.' Something interesting will come. It always does. I have faith.
mean play want
To play Hillary Clinton? I'm kind of winging it. No, are you kidding me? I prepared obsessively. I mean, as much as I could in the time that I was given. Of course, with someone like Hillary Clinton, obviously, anything you want is on YouTube and at your fingertips there.

I'm not really high-strung now, but I was a very high-strung child.
home new-yorkers
I'm a New Yorker, and I rarely get to work at home.
fire light storytelling
Storytelling is what lights my fire.
pet gone lucky
I've been lucky. I've made films that I really like. It's been a combination of what comes to me and what I choose. I've gone after lots of things that I didn't get, pet projects that everybody ends up chasing after. Really, you're lucky if you get anything.
years film enjoy
I like to work. I enjoy once a year, doing a film.
reflection looks way
The older you get, the more you realize that the way you look is a reflection of how you treat yourself.

I feel like I'm one of the happiest people I know.

I haven't frequented a nail salon in a long time.

I just love to make a whole roomful of people laugh.

I travel all the time, and I have two small children.

I would do 'American Splendor' and 'About Schmidt' again in a heartbeat.
