It's Always Been A Desire Of Mine

I Was Raised By An Actress, And I Watched All Those Women Turn 60 And Ask, "should I Get Face Work?" And My Mother And Anne Bancroft Said To Each Other, "we Are Who We Are, And We're Not Going To Fall Into That."

We Like Our Archetypes And Heroes To Be What They Are At Face Value. And Life Doesn't Work Out Like That

Unfortunately, Overall, Movies Are A Conglomerate. People Buy And Sell People In This Business, Which Can Get Really Ugly Unless You Have The Right Set Of Values And Understand Why You're Doing It. Luckily, I Was Raised By People Who'd Already Gotten To That Point, And Seen All The Yuck Stuff - Which Is Probably Why They Originally Didn't Want Me To Act.

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.

It's Interesting To Talk To My Mom About Her Character In Wild At Heart, Because She Sees Her As A Mother Who's Just Trying To Protect Her Baby From A Bad Boy. I Think That's Why It Works So Beautifully - She Has Conviction About What She's Doing.
