You May Be A Little Older, Or

I Came From A Real Working-class Show Business Family.

I Find That’s One Of The Great Things About Acting-you Have The Opportunity To Stand In Somebody Else’s Shoes. Each Character Faces A Dilemma In Her Life, And As An Actor You’re Able To Step Into That Character’s Skin, Look Through Her Eyes. You Leave Transformed, A Different Person, Because Once You Live A Little Bit Of Someone’s Life, It Changes You.

There Are Not A Lot Of Places For An Actor To Explore What It's Like To Be A Woman In Her 60s. There Aren't Any Films About It And There Very Few Tv Series About It.

I Really Have No Ulterior Motive In Taking On Certain Roles. I Have No Larger Issue That I Really Want To Show People. I'm An Actor, That's All. I Just Do What I Do.

It Took Me Getting To My 50s Before I Could Say "whatever!" About Other People's Criticism, Especially When It's Not True.
