I always knew my mom was a good actress.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My mom wasn't a movie star.
My Mother is an actress, so it's always been a part of my life.
For as long as I've been acting, I have been very lucky to be paired with really great actresses playing my mom.
My mom was incredibly supportive when she found out that I wanted to be an actress, and that certainly made things easier and more fun.
Growing up in North Carolina, my mom was always just sort of my mom to me. I never really recognized her as a famous actress. I'm always thrilled when she's cleaning out her closet. Last time, I got a pair of boots that she bought in Paris 20 years ago. I have completely worn them out.
I announced to my mother one day when I was 8 that I wanted to be a serious actress.
I think my mom is the inspiration of me wanting to do film and TV and be an actor because she loved film so much. She loved, like, horror films and action films, so growing up, she loved watching all the Charles Bronson films and all the westerns.
My mom kind of led me toward acting. She wanted to be an actress when she was younger. That made me interested in it when I was a kid, because she and I are very close.
I was clearly brought into the whole thing about acting by my mother. She loved the theater. She had a very pleasant singing voice, which she used to sing for her ladies' club.
I always enjoyed acting. My aunt was actually an actress.
