Acting Is A Matter Of Giving Away

I Just Would Never Go Audition, And Yet I Was In Very Visible Places Where People Would Come Looking For Actors. I Say I'm Lazy, Though I'm Sure If I Were In Therapy For A Lot Of Years, It Would Turn Out To Be A Lot More Than Laziness. After Awhile, It Was, Like, Too Embarrassing For Me Not To Go On Auditions. I Had To Be Humiliated Into It.

When I Played Leonardo Dicaprio's Mother, They Liked That Leo Had Very Hooded Eyes And A Rounded Nose With A Ball. They Said, They Look Like They Could Be Mother And Son.

'normal Heart' Was My Most Transcendent Moment As An Actor.

I Guess I Worry About Weird Existential Things, Like How Do We Spend Our Final Act. This Is A Very Emotional Question. I Can't Answer It Without Crying. I Think, You're 56 Years Old, What Did You Do? You Raised Two Good Kids. What Am I Going To Do Now That Is As Meaningful As That? I Don't Know The Answer Yet.

I'm Method Trained. How Is This Character Like Me? What Does She Think Of Her Mother? What Does Her Mother Think Of Her? It's Like Construction, And Then, Yes, You Hope You're Talented And That The Universe Aligns And Captures The Kind Of Laborer's Work You've Done And Whatever Else Sprinkles Down On You, And It's All Caught On Film Or Onstage.
