I always wanted to know what lens they were on, how close they were. I didn’t do it with a plan in mind, but I would instinctively gear what I was doing toward what lenses they were using.

I was always cutting dialogue out when we were rehearsing, and when I produced movies, too. I felt that people don’t say things in life – they act, they do things. I always wanted my characters doing, rather than saying what they were doing – which was redundant.

Scarlett O’Hara didn’t think she was manipulating. That’s just the way she got what she wanted.

Early on in my career, I’d go into the makeup trailer, and they’d spend an hour doing my makeup, and I would hate it. I’d go into the bathroom, wash it off and start over again, which took an enormous amount of time. So I just started doing it myself.

My message is – keep moving. If you do, you’ll keep arthritis at bay.

I thought it was very important that femininity wasn’t lost.

If there is anything I would do differently in my life, it is that I would study business more. I’m trying to teach my daughter Chloe at an early age about investing and money so she’s not afraid of it.

I’m back to doing everything I used to, loving life as ever.

The meeting tonight was to reinstate or not reinstate the bus stops.

I really want to spend as much time as I can with my daughter and really participate in her growing up. I'm very active in her school.
