As An Actress, You Want To Try

I Think That As Actresses - And I've Definitely Gone Through This In A Really Bizarre Way, Because I Worked So Much And Was Really Lucky With The Roles That I Got When I Was Younger - I Remember Hearing The Older Actors Saying, "it Gets Tough," And Thinking, "really? I Can't Imagine."

But I've Always Felt A Need To Have A Life Which Is Completely Separate - At Least As Far As Possible - From The Kind Of Illusory Lifestyle That Comes With Being A Celebrity.

That First Movie I Did, Lucas [1986], Was Probably The Closest To Me. And Beetlejuice A Little Bit, In The Sense That I Did Look Like That. All They Did Was Like Put A Little White Powder Here.

Certainly With The Crucible, What I Love Is That Every Role In That Is So Crucial.but There's Something Almost Comic. I Remember There's That Line Where She Says, "i Am 18 And A Woman, However Single," Which Killed Me Every Time!

In Retrospect, I Went To Jane Fonda For Literally Everything. During Mermaids, We Were Staying In The Same Building, So She Was Right Upstairs From Me. I Was In My First Relationship, So I Got All Sorts Of Advice. She Became Famous In Her Late Teens.
