It`s kind of true, you do disappear off the planet if you are a middle-aged woman, but that has some advantages as well. Because too much of my life was spent waiting to be seen. Hoping to be seen, hoping to be picked. Once you realize that you aren`t loo...

[on Frank Capra] He was my favorite director. Woody Allen and I once sat in a restaurant and picked five pictures we`d take to an island. And much to my shock, he didn`t take a Capra picture and I took two. He took three Ingmar Bergman movies.

We all believe what we read. I read how Tom Cruise and I were two big egos holding up shooting. I know that isn`t true - but if I wasn`t making a movie with him and I just picked up the paper, I`d believe it. That`s interesting, isn`t it?
