One of the sad commentaries on the way women are viewed in our society is that we have to fit one category. I have never felt that I had to be in one category. ↗
I was watching 'Up In The Air' and I thought, 'Jesus, who's the old gray-haired guy?' And it was me. I never wear makeup for movies and now it's starting to show. ↗
The last real movie stars were probably Redford and Newman. And things were different then. There wasn't this amazing amount of magazines and information about them. ↗
I knew the term Stepford Wife, and I knew what that meant. I never read the book, and I think before I started filming I watched the movie. I thought it was very dated. ↗
Up until 35 I had a slightly skewed world view. I honestly believed everybody in the world wanted to make abstract paintings, and people only became lawyers and doctors and brokers and things because they couldn't make abstract paintings. ↗
Other kinds of movie stars, it's a different thing, they bring their persona to the part and that's what people like to see, and they are not really transforming in terms of their character. ↗
