My Mother, For The Last 20 Years

The Early Part Of My Career I Really Struggled, Getting Turned Down Again And Again. I Was In Debt, And It Was Horrible. And Then My Family Hit Such Highs In Their Careers, I Asked Myself What I Was Thinking Going Into The Same Profession.

You Grow Up By Making Mistakes. I've Made A Ton Of Them, But As Long As I Keep On Failing Better, I Don't Mind.

I'd Love To Adopt, But Having A Daughter, Daisy, Who's In The Middle Of Her Teens, I'm Now Thinking: Is This A Time To Start All Over Again Or Is This A Time To Realise Those Child-rearing Years Are Over?

Ok, I Wasn't As Successful As, Say, Julia Roberts, But I'd Spent Years In A Very Respectable Career, Some Big American Films But A Host Of Other Smaller, Really Exciting, Maybe Experimental Films, Being Paid Rubbish But Working With Fine People, That Was What I Thought I Was Known For.

There's Still A Bit Of A Problem, In That So Many Leading English Roles Are Taken By American Or French Actresses.
