I never really felt like I belonged in California.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We never really wanted to play in California.
I was making films about American society, and it is true that I never felt at home there, except perhaps when my wife and I lived on a farm in the San Fernando Valley.
When I was growing up, I never felt that I belonged anywhere because we never lived in a house for more than three months. That's all I knew, and that's why I don't really belong anywhere.
I mean, I love California, but LA to me is still a strange place.
I lived in Los Angeles in the '80s, which was not the best place to be.
I never pictured myself in California. I just thought I would be a character actress in New York on the stage. I never really had that stardom goal; I just wanted to be able to work as an actress and not as a waitress.
I always wanted to be a Californian. In my wildest dreams, I always liked California - it's the place where oranges grows on trees! Fruit just falls off the trees.
When I was still in high school I knew I wanted to live in California.
I had fallen in love with California.
It never occurred to me that I could live in California. Now I can't imagine living anywhere else.
