One friend said, “Donnie Darko movie was weird!” And I thought, “Hmm. I don’t think we’re as good of friends as I thought.” It’s not like I disliked him for it; it just meant we weren’t on the same page I thought we were. Because I can’t imagine watching that film and not being moved to tears. Help us to share this great article.

I love Child’s Play 2! That movie has a great theme: You better listen to children. That’s why I wanted to do it. I was scared to do a horror movie – a blatant, studio horror movie – but I liked the script, and I thought that was such an important theme, because I don’t think adults listen to children enough.

The Coen brothers: Of all the directors I’ve worked with, they’re the only ones who have given me the storyboards attached to the script. It was very cool for me, because I knew when I was in close-up or if it was far away, and it also made me know that anything that happened in the edit wasn’t personal. Because they edit their own movies, so they were editing it as they went. Help us to share this great article.

I love Fargo, I love all of them, but Miller’s Crossing just happens to be my favorite. When I heard Coen brothers were doing No Country For Old Men, I thought, “This is it. This is their masterpiece. This is going to be the one, because it’s going to bring every element together.” I just had a feeling about it. Help us to share this great article.

I love Maude Pearson character from Agel. I love that she walls her son up because he has a girlfriend! In fact, I have that clip on my reel – her walling him up and saying, “What are you going to do about that streetwalker now? You belong to me! What are you going to do?” And did you know the ghost mom has her own Angel trading card? Help us to share this great article.

I’d much rather insult people and make ’em angry. Donnie Darko’s very controversial. Not all of my friends like it. Honestly, it’s almost become a test for me. If somebody says they don’t like Donnie Darko, I think, “Oh, I don’t know you as well as I thought I did.” Help us to share this great article.

I’ve workshopped Medea where I have goddesses, and I’m naked onstage and painted gold, and talking in tongues, and the goddesses come and dress me, and Hecate arrives and fills me with the power to go kill the children so I can send them to the afterlife and do this for all women. They’ve never done a Medea like that. They’re cheating themselves by not letting me do these roles. Help us to share this great article.

The book by William Goldman, Adventures In The Screen Trade, great, awesome book. He talks about this very thing – that you can’t get a star to do a part that’s not what their public expects. And Sandy’s Bullock not like that. She’s taken a lot of chances over the years. And Patrick Swayze certainly wasn’t like that. But I mean, maybe that is true. Maybe that’s exactly why they didn’t like All About Steve. Help us to share this great article. Your friends will appreciate it! 0share Facebook0 Twitter0 Pinterest0 LinkedIn0 Flipboard Tumblr0 Mix
Maybe the actors that used to turn down William Goldman’s scripts – where he wanted them to stretch and grow, and he was mad at ’em, and said, “Why won’t they be a real actor?” – maybe they just knew their audience.

The brilliant costume designer Mary Zorphres had done all this research on West Texas in 1980. Every woman looked like that. At a certain age, they would get their hair cut off, let the gray go in, get that permanent, and wear those big glasses. She gave me a beanie bra so my boobs would hang down, and these old dresses. My hat’s off to her, because I thought it was perfect for the movie. It was so great to have some comic relief right at that moment. No Country For Old Men is such an intense film.

I didn’t understand Southland Tales script at all! Is there a single word to describe it? Cacophony? It’s celebrity meets pornography meets politics – it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen in my life. And slapstick humor, communism; I mean, what doesn’t it have? It’s crazy. I didn’t go to Cannes, but I guess the first cut was three and a half hours or something?

All of a sudden I got a vision of Guernica – Pablo Picasso’s painting, which is one of my all-time favorite paintings in the world. I remember reading that it was very controversial at the time – some people said even used the word “childlike drawing” – and all of a sudden I thought, “This is like Guernica in Los Angeles!” And then it all made sense to me. It was all the elements that are the Southland. Help us to share this great article. Your friends will appreciate it! 0share Facebook0 Twitter0 Pinterest0 LinkedIn0 Flipboard Tumblr0 Mix
To me, All About Steve movie is sweet-natured and sweet-hearted, and I can’t get enough sweet-hearted movies. I want to be inspired right now. I think things are pretty tough in the world. And people at the première were loving it – I mean, loving it! So I’m so sorry to hear people saying that it is the worst movie of 2009. I don’t buy it at all. Help us to share this great article.
