I Really Only Did Theater In School

Ridiculously - Fortunately - My First Job Was With Dustin Hoffman. I Had A Little Part In This Movie Called Tootsie. And He Taught Me How To Watch Dailies. That It Was Very Important.

After A Couple Of Rehearsals And A Couple Of Takes, Sydney Pollack Says, "come Here. Why Are You Not Nervous?" And I [say], "do You Think It Would Be Better If I Was Nervous?" And He Says, "no, It's Just I Can't Understand It - How You Would Be First Time On A Set, You're Acting, When He Flubs His Line You Make Up A New Line. It's Very Interesting." It's Not That I Think I'm Great; That's What I Knew I Wanted To Do.

I Told My Parents When I Was Three That I Wanted To Be In Movies. I Don't Know What I Saw At Three Years Old That Would Make Me Decide That's A Job And I Want To Have That Job. But I Was Very Confident, Very Sure That's What I Wanted To Do. I Didn't Do Anything About It. I Didn't Prove It To Myself Or Anything. I Just Knew.

All Of Hollywood Is Run On One Assumption: That Women Will Watch Stories About Men, But Men Won't Watch Stories About Women. It Is A Horrible Indictment Of Our Society Of We Assume That One Half Of Our Population Is Just Not Interested In The Other Half.

I Do Have A Very Chill - I Can Watch All My Movies. A Lot Of People Don't Like To Watch Their Work. I Watch Everything. All The Time.
