I didn't have the safety net that a lot of young actresses have. A lot of young girls have their families around to support them and help choose wisely.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Family issues and a failing career would be enough to consume most young actresses.
Every actress has to face the facts there are younger, more beautiful girls right behind you. Once you've gone beyond the vanity of the business, you'll take on the tough roles.
There is this thing in America where actresses reach 40 and go mad. The film industry wants all these young people.
There's a very small group of elite actresses who are my age, who people want to work with. It's not easy to get a good job with good actors.
I'm 40 next year and I'm very well aware that where I am now, it becomes a bit of a wilderness for actresses.
As the years went by, working on Broadway, I started seeing that I had a fan base and that they were mostly young girls. They are looking for someone that they can look up to, that they see as a role model. And I don't take that lightly; it's a big responsibility.
Fighting the ageing process just doesn't work. I think that actresses, ultimately, are responsible for the faces we give to women.
Young girls of 13 or 12 are great actors.
It's important to have female solidarity and support each other and other actresses.
I love actresses who are brave and don't do what's expected of them or don't play off how they look or take risks.
