I have a life that's just been a well of loneliness.
Acceptance and tolerance and forgiveness, those are life-altering lessons.
I could be making a lot more money now if I had chosen a different kind of movie, but none of that matters to me... I've done the parts I wanted to do.
I never just slide through anything. I explore everything to the fullest, whether good or bad.
I have been a waitress, and I was a damn fine waitress too, let me tell you.
It was easier to do Shakespeare than a lot of modern movie scripts that are so poorly written.
The only place I've felt was really my home is my cabin up north. There's something in the water there that connects me to that place. There's also this sense of isolation and loneliness about it that I've never been able to shake.
Photography was a blessing because it filled my time.
To my mind the election was stolen by George Bush and we have been suffering ever since under this man's leadership.
I worked on my voice for Sweet Dreams, but only to match my speaking voice to Patsy's actual singing voice. That was my way into that character.
