I Was Raised By An Actress, And

I Made A Commitment To Myself: That I Wanted To Be An Actress, And I Wanted To Do Films That Make A Difference. Whether It Makes Someone Laugh, Or It Has A Moral To The Story - It Doesn't Have To Be An Ethical Film, But It Has To Move People. If It Doesn't Excite Me, It's Not Worth Doing - It's Better To Work On Myself And My Own Life And Wait Until Another Great Thing Comes Along.

I Would Say Steven Spielberg Is Family To Me. He's A Genius. We Survived A Hurricane Together. I Ran From Half-puppet,half-nothing Creatures. It Was Months Of Our Life As Family. It Was The Wildest Film, Jurassic Park, I'd Ever Worked On That Way.

Luckily, I Was Raised By People Whod Already Seen All The Yuck Stuff, Which Is Why They Originally Didnt Want Me To Act. I Understood The Difference Between Getting A Part At A Hollywood Party And Getting A Job.

It Sounds Like A Cliché, But Mother Is Really One Of My Closest Friends, And So's My Dad. He And I Weren't Very Close When I Was Younger, But Now We're Best Friends.

Even If You've Gone Through An Average Childhood, You Have Girlfriends Who Get Pregnant And Then Have To Choose Whether Or Not To Have A Child. And This Stuff Certainly Makes You Think About What You're Taking On. I Certainly Want To Have Children, But I Could Never Do It Until I Felt I Loved Myself Enough, And Wanted To Bring Someone Into The World Because I Had Some Kind Of Security.
