When You Finally Accept That It's Ok

I Remember Realizing, When I Did Little Women [1994], That That Was The Only Time Girls That Age Were Being Written About. It Was Always Boys - From David Copperfield To Lord Of The Flies To Holden Caulfield. There Were Never Young Women Going Through Adolescence Or Teen Years; There Were Only Little Girls.

Break-ups Are Hard For Anybody, But It's Particularly Tough When It's Being Documented And You See The Person's Picture Everywhere. Most People Don't Have That Added Problem When They Break Up With Someone.

Bette Davis, She Was So Brilliant And One Of My Heroes, But She Worked A Ton, And Then She Didn't Get All About Eve [1950] Until The Last Minute. Claudette Colbert Was Supposed To Be Margo Channing, But Then She Broke Her Back And Couldn't Do It. That Allowed Davis To Play Her Age.

I, Myself, Am Strange And Unusual.

If Something Brilliant Comes Along But I Really Feel Like It's Too Old For Me - That I'm Not Gonna Have The Experience It Takes - I'm Not Gonna Do It. Even If It's "a Big Mistake For My Career".
