The least consideration of any film I've ever worked on is who is right for it.

In their 30s women really start to live... they're not children anymore, and they're not just mothers.

My idols are all older.

All I really want to do is entertain people out there sitting in the dark and for them to believe it.

That's where I got my start and where I'll continue to work, but I can't tell you the number of films between Drugstore Cowboy and Curly Sue that I auditioned for and wanted that didn't choose me.

I can't wait til I get the chance to be a character and how my face looks isn't the first consideration.

You learn your text and have it in the back of your head, without a thought as to how you're going to say it.

The worst thing would be for them to find out who I really am, because that's where I hide.

I think right now in the world we're feeling like there's no solid ground beneath our feet, you know?

You know, I change my hair color a lot, I do all sorts of different things.

In a collaborative environment directors hire actors because they want their input, not just their bodies.

Well, I'm a consumer as well. I go to the movies with my popcorn and believe everything I see.

The least consideration of any film I've ever worked on is who is right for it.

You look at Gone With the Wind, how right Vivian Leigh was for that. Don't know if that would happen today.

Yeah, I do feel badly sometimes, not for whose coming up and getting roles I'm not right for anymore but the people I compete with, who range from Uma Thurman on up.

But actors at a certain point take the best of what's available to them.

If it's independent, it's because I love it... 'cause they usually end up costing me money to do.

I like to show as much of a woman as I can. I like to fill things out.

It's part of the fun of it to work with strong personalities.

The fact that I got Drugstore Cowboy at all was a fluke.

I make a good living and I've never looked at myself as being an artiste.

My whole career is based on taking a left turn after each film and doing the opposite of what I've just done.

Most movie stars don't change their look at all.

I do come shackled with whatever people think I am.
