They used to say I was a younger Winona Ryder and that always made me laugh because I'm three years older than she is.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always been fond of Winona Ryder.
Certain type of actresses get younger instead of older. I always say, 'Only ingenues age.'
The truth is that the actresses who I look up to are either my age or a few years older or a lot older.
I often joke that 100 years from now I hope people are saying, 'Dang, she looks good for her age!'
Whether it's a blessing or a curse, I have always played someone like 10 years younger. When I was 23 or 24, I was playing 15 opposite Evan Rachel Wood in a movie called 'Pretty Persuasion.' She was 16 and nobody in a million years would have thought I was that much older than her.
In Hollywood, she's revered, she gets nominated for Oscars, but I've never heard anyone in the public or among my friends say, 'Oh, I love Winona Ryder.'
My siblings were a bit younger than me, and I was always entertaining them and making up stories.
It's like, God, I'm in my 80s. Nobody, when I die, is going to say, 'How young?' They're going to say she had a great ride.
I'm only two years older than Brad Pitt, but I look a lot older, which used to greatly frustrate me. It doesn't anymore. I don't have to fit into that category and get trounced by Tom Cruise and Brad.
I got old the way that women who aren't actresses grow old.
