It's based around a Jewish family but it really is a universal theme about getting along and coming along.
My sons were so excited to be picked up in the limo and be part of everything. I think they are proud of me. They see me doing what I love. They get.
We are so lucky Americans are impressive with what they're willing to give. We get bashed too much. And, so many young people in this country give so much. They're not all gang bangers.
Sometimes movies gloss over things, and it was important to me that this was realistic.
I also think a Hot Mom is someone who can connect with what's current in her kids' world.
I'm at a time in my life where I'm so filled up that I don't want more.
Two years ago I created Painted Turtle Camp in Lake Hughes, California. Each week the summer camp welcomes children with a different disease.
Less than Zero was not an easy movie to make. It was hard-fought for me to get. Even on the audition they did not want to see me.
They see a work ethic in both of us. But, they also see that my husband is more in control of his future, and I am more reliant on other sources for my career.
Special effects movies have taken over the universe. That and scary movies.
As a mom, I always feel I have to protect them. I talk about them because they are the most important things in my life but they are private people. I won't use them for my own press.
I have three sons, and I think were both fierce protectors of our children.
I have three sons, a husband, parents, and I'll fight and get angry, but what is very important that I have found as I've matured, is that I have to move on.
The great equalizer is health. If you don't have it, you're screwed.
