I have loved movies as the number one thing in my life so long that I can't ever remember a time when I didn't.

I just grew up watching a lot of movies. I'm attracted to this genre and that genre, this type of story, and that type of story. As I watch movies I make some version of it in my head that isn't quite what I'm seeing - taking the things I like and mixing them with stuff I've never seen before.

Some mornings you wake up and think, gee I look handsome today. Other days I think, what am I doing in the movies? I wanna go back to Ireland and drive a forklift.

I don't really have a schedule of when I want to show my children my movies.

I was making a lot of 8mm home movies, since I was twelve, making little dramas and comedies with the neighborhood kids.

Sexiness, particularly in movies, is the chess game in the 'Thomas Crown Affair'. It's, it's, I don't know, but Faye Dunaway comes up a lot in that thinking. It's the subtlety of sexiness. The moment you try to be sexy, then it's not.

I didn't grow up thinking of movies as film, or art, but as movies, something to do on a Saturday afternoon.

I have been pregnant in so many movies it's ridiculous.

There are a lot of movies that are unbelievable successes that I would be mortified to be a part of.

My nominee for Best Picture of the year - maybe the best picture ever, because it's essentially made up of and is an ecstatic love letter to all other movies - is Christian Marclay's endlessly enticing must-see masterpiece 'The Clock.'
