I know that I've seen a mannerism, or a way I've cried, or something, where I see a flash of my parents.
I've seen 3-D movies where it seems a little crude or too in-your-face.
Everything's cyclical. Having been raised by actors, I watched their careers, and the challenge is to take time off.
When you're first reading the script and thinking about playing the part, it's slightly daunting. It's easy to question, 'Is an audience going to like me? And is that my job?'
I wanted to go to Jupiter. That was my plan from day one, and David Lynch gave me the ticket.
It's a strange world, as David Lynch would say.
I will be working with David Lynch when I'm 80.
You must always watch when David Lynch makes anything.
David Lynch is like that - every sound, every detail to the end of making the film, he never gives up. It has to be perfect.
Decision-making is very scary for me.
I like movies about longing and desperation, and dark and light things, stories about people struggling to raise children, and to have relationships and be intimate with each other.
If I had different parents who were in it for the money, I might have a different perspective. But they really are artists; they intelligently approach each character and prepare in every sense of the word. I grew up in a world that had great discipline.
I'm lucky enough that directors sometimes seek me out for little projects that people don't even know about, that just surface later on.
Having egregious divorces - where you just hate each other - is really the easy way out.
My daughter wants to do yoga with me and wants to be in the theater thing, and I can't tell her, 'Don't be an actress.' My son loves guitar and loves to be in a band and wants his iTunes downloaded with all this old-school hip-hop so he understands where hip-hop came from.
Diet is weird. It's elusive. I just try to listen to my body.
My mother is extremely interested in everything esoteric.
It excites me to go to a movie and be reminded that I'm human, and I'm filled with opposites, and I'm built with flaws. Part of growth and healing is recognizing that.
Wild at Heart made a few people angry-they thought I was exploiting women by showing that when a woman says no she really means yes.
I was raised in the '70s, and I've worked with people I love, and I've been on sets with my parents, with people who run a set and require of actors a sense of liberty and freedom and exploration and failure into brave achievement.
