I would love to have read about myself being compared to Lauren Bacall.

Jennifer Lawrence is so talented and so lovely. She has a real ability to connect with people.

I feel like something magical is going to happen, and I feel like all the stars have finally lined up perfectly for Angie Stone.

The cast, led by the extraordinary Jennifer Lawrence, is absolutely wonderful across the board. It's such a pleasure to see how they've embodied the characters and brought them to life.

Even though I never worked with her, it was still really cool to have Brooke Shields on set. She was so nice and so funny.

Lauren Bacall, James Garner, and Jack Lemmon - they're all gone now, but I was so impressed by them.

This is so cliche, but my beauty icon would have to be Angelina Jolie. She looks like she wears natural makeup, but she's still beautiful.

I'm so impressed by Jennifer Lawrence and Carey Mulligan. They have this exquisite taste. They are very gifted in their ability to make great choices.

I always choose to remember the moment that was the best of Jeanne Cooper - those photos where she's in that wild dress triumphantly hoisting up the Emmy the night she finally won the damn thing. She was so proud, so happy.

I adore Bette Davis and Vivien Leigh, but more because they were good actresses. That's what makes me interested in them, that they didn't present themselves as idols; they were just doing their jobs.
