I'm no actor. And I wasn't like George Lucas or Spielberg, making home movies as a teenager, either. But I would go back and watch certain movies again and again. By the time I saw 'The Graduate' I was aware of how these amazing stories could be told. ↗

Acting deals with very delicate emotions. It is not putting up a mask. Each time an actor acts he does not hide; he exposes himself. ↗

In my first film, I was a basketball player. Like every good actor, I lied when they asked me if I could play. ↗

I'd been shy since childhood, constantly full of self-doubt. And as an actor, I'd been so scared of failing that I made my career - and myself - a big joke. ↗

In my first few years as an actor, I took one terrible TV job after another. But even as I laughed off my awful roles and made fun of myself to friends, my work made me cringe - I dreaded anyone's seeing it. I was crushed that I wasn't doing anything I was proud of. ↗

You are exposing yourself all the time as an actor. There's the risk of being thought of as bad or boring or unattractive. ↗

Eventually I want to be a full-time mother who works occasionally - and being an actor you have that freedom. ↗

I love working with male actors, and I think there's a tendency to write really interesting characters that would work solely alongside men where they would be in a man's world and have to deal with that, and it creates a lot of interesting storylines. For me, it's kind of circumstantial, but I definitely enjoy it. ↗

When people see an actor speak, they think they know him or her, whereas I'm just a face or a body to them. ↗
