My relationship with my father was the most central relationship of my life from the time I was zero to 30.

As you sort of go through life, you realize it's very rare to have a relationship as an actor with a director like I have with John.

It's a prizefight. Get off the stool, take your beating, go back to your corner, rest, and take a beating again. Believe in your own talent. Marry well.

He's always sort of felt like family to me in some respects. I know exactly what he's trying to convey. I trust him so implicitly. Sometimes, you work with someone and you're sort of guarded because you're not sure about their instincts. But with him, I feel he's going to take me much further than I could get on my own.

The frequency will be much less than it ever was, ... I think I'll only do something if I'm sure that when it comes time to talk about it, that I'll be happy to be talking about it. That it's work I will feel proud of and that I'll learn something from doing.

I would have been willing to do anything for my father. I would have moved in with my father to look after him if my mother had died. It's just that sort of commitment. That's just the way my family is.

Everything has been homogenized. Over time, with television and jet travel, everybody has blended together. Some of our wonderful charm has been lost.

That we would do it one day ....

They said I wasn't pretty enough, ... That's a true story.
