In Retrospect, I Went To Jane Fonda

The Actors That I Do Know Are People Who I Think Have Souls, You Know?

I Grew Up In San Francisco. My Parents Were Not Hippies; They Were Writers. They Were Very Active Politically, But On The Intellectual Side, Not On The "taking Drugs In A Field And Listening To The Grateful Dead" Side.

Most Actors Don't Know What They're Going To Do Next, So You Get Into This Thing Where You Have To Force Yourself To Have Another Life Outside Of Acting. And Then, As Soon As You Start Something In This Sort Of Normal Life That You're Trying To Live, You Get A Job. So You Have This Constant Struggle Because You Want To Be Able To Commit To Things And To Finish Things In Your Life, But Then You Also Want To Be Able To Act.

I Was Very Depressed After Breaking Off My Engagement With Johnny Ten Years Ago. I Was Embarrassingly Dramatic At The Time, But You Have To Remember I Was Only 19 Years Old.

There's A Scene [in The 1990 Film Welcome Home, Roxy Carmichael] In My Bedroom Where I Start Eating Almond Roca. I Was So Young. It Was Before I Knew The Tricks Of Moviemaking, And I Didn't Know You Shoot A Lot Of Different Angles. I Gobbled Them And Didn't Realize I Had To Keep Doing It. So I Had To Eat 64 Almond Roca That Day. I Got So Sick. In The Beginning You're Like, 'ooh, That Looks Good.' But Hours Later, No.
