More From Celebrity. There were weekend nights I would lie in bed instead of going out with my friends. I'm really proud of the film, but it was strange for me to be looked at as a sexual object when I was I think it is a really beautiful thing that we have recognition within our industry - but it's not that important. But we have to remember that almost all films are written and directed by men. Female characters are women imagined by men, so it's always this classic figure of a sexy woman with a childish innocence.
You walk into a nice strip club, the ones where the women are treated well - obviously 'well' is debatable - and the women just seem so powerful. Women have full control; they can get whatever they want from these guys. But they realise it is a tacit contract: they are that way because men want them to be like that.
Obviously, if the men wanted them on the floor scrubbing their shoes they'd probably be doing that too. I see that my girlfriends, already at 23, are thinking, "What career can I choose that will also suit having children? Whereas my male friends aren't thinking that way.
Premiere magazine. After all the crazy hairstyles I had to endure for the films, it's quite liberating to have no hair - especially in this heat. On filming Star Wars: You learn after your first blue-screen movie, and more after your second, the extent to which you have to prepare. You have to come up with the scenery, the characters, the whole world, as well as what's going on with you. You're often talking to a tape mark instead of a character, and you have to project what they might be thinking, what's going on, how they're treating you.
On filming Free Zone in Jerusalem: I was sleeping five hours a night and we were running from location to location and making up the story as we went along. There's a scene where my arms are uncovered and I'm very close to the guy. People got upset and we moved to another place. It was just crazy because they were calling us Nazis, and I think that's a little much.
I was the precocious one when I was younger, and now I'm the girlish one, which ultimately means I've stayed the same. Which is not a good sign. People think the film industry is going to corrupt me. I wasn't really home when my friends were trying pot for the first time.
I was always around adults who wouldn't curse or smoke or do anything like that around me. The people whose secrets I most want to know are people who actually have families and marriages as well as careers - people like Meryl Streep , Cate Blanchett and Julianne Moore. I think that if I were like mids and didn't have kids yet I would probably start adopting or something. Aargh, I don't even have a boyfriend, and I'm talking about kids! On starring in Closer : It's not exploitative, but it is about sex.
No kids allowed. It's definitely a different thing for me, but I feel like I'm old enough to handle it now. I sort of understand more how to deal with it publicly, and it doesn't shatter me. I don't have to go to school the next day and have people be like, "Oh I saw you in that movie; you were very dirty. I think, especially in those first few years of college, my body started changing a lot.
I got hips. Your metabolism changes; you're not exercising as much. I ran track for a couple of years in high school, and I was also dancing. I was always doing something. At Harvard, you don't really join the team unless you're a star. On which of the three Star Wars prequels is her favorite They are all so very different, Episode III is very dark and much more demanding, we all know that Anakin becomes Darth Vader but to actually see this transition is very painful.
So when you have such a dark story to work with it demands you as an actor to work harder. So even though I haven't seen the film yet, I would suppose that the last one is my favorite. I began Star Wars when I was 14 and I'm going to be 24 when this final movie comes out, so these movies were 10 years of my life and now I'm just trying to do something different.
I agree with Walter Murch's theory that digital will never have the emotional or visual power of regular film, because audiences respond to absences. Regular film has a split second of blank screen between each shot, which the audience's brain has to automatically fill in. Digital doesn't have that, so it doesn't engage the audience in the same ways. In all modernist literature, the most present thing is what's absent.
Like the opening of The Sound and the Fury, where they're looking between the fence. Or in Closer the most important parts, the relationships, are missing and have to be filled in by the audience. Absences are crucial. I was especially fascinated by memory studies. There was one that requested people's good and bad memories, and then checked them for content. But non-pathological people, people who maintain a happy, healthy brain, couldn't provide negative memories.
They'd say, "But I learned this from the experience"; they'd turn their negative memories into positive ones. I get a copy of every action figure from Star Wars. I send them to charity. Some of the really cool ones I keep.
Like there's a snow globe thing with one of the spacecrafts in it, which is also a music box, which I really love. Asked if winning the Globe was a shock God, yes!
I was so sure I wasn't going to win it, I went up to Meryl Streep nominated for The Manchurian Candidate before the show and said, "You're going down.
When they called my name, all I could think was, oh no, Meryl's going to be mad at me! On the necklace she gave Julia Roberts Oh, I made the mistake of telling one person I did that - now everyone loves this story!
It was just a joke, because there were lots of dirty words in the script and, every time Julia had to say a bad word, she got all blushy.
The moment you buy into the idea you're above anyone else is the moment you need to be slapped in the face. I actually am starting to feel I should start a revolution against heels, even though that wouldn't be a dramatic revolution.
Everyone around me says, "You have to wear heels. In seventh grade, I cried every single day when I came back from shooting The Professional. My friends were not my friends. They were saying, "She thinks she's so hot now," things like that, and it was the most painful thing I've ever gone through.
Clearly, I haven't had that difficult a life. Jane Magazine, Ashley Judd and I went to this place called the Broken Spoke. You walk in and everyone's wearing cowboy hats and men come up to you and ask you to dance. We danced the two-step together, and all these men were coming up, saying, "It's not right to see two ladies dancing.
Let us cut in! There were stories in the house of what had happened to them her grandparents during the Holocaust , and it wasn't that much talked about. I had to go on a website to read my grandfather's descriptions of what happened to the family. It was part of what made the film seem like a joint search for something, a joint expedition. That question only provides irony if you prematurely die. I went out into the desert and an amazing storm was taking place, which is so unusual in the desert.
I ended up in a tent with the six strangers whom I had just met, and had traveled with earlier on camel back. There we were, watching this amazing lightning in the middle of the desert. The tent was shaking and it was a really exciting experience.
I aspire to make more comedies because we never see enough good ones. When I was nine and attending a Jewish school, we had different kosher lunches served. We weren't kosher at home. My mom used to make me chicken salad sandwiches and I would have to lie to everyone, saying it was tuna.
We worked on this accent that If you look at them, their voices and the stature is so regal, even in their everyday characters. And that's kinda why I used it to model after. From now on, I'm going to trust my gut more. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is say no. There was a scene in a movie that felt inappropriate for me, but I didn't want to make waves Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is say 'no'. Parade magazine. And I think the other people have not been so lucky.
It's a tricky thing, and not necessarily a positive thing,that young people are working and seeking this kind of attention. Getting this sort of attention changes them. Overall, to get a real deep, nuanced understanding of human behaviour, art is the best way.
I think it's beautiful in films, and sex is such a big part of life, and nudity is obviously our natural state. That's not my issue. My issue is that I feel it takes something away from what you're doing.
And also that it can be used afterwards for different purposes. You ask people why they don't like her and it's because her husband cheated on her! That was obviously not her choice. She's so much more polished and experienced than anyone else. Last night, a friend, a social worker in L. I mean, look how many women are in government Hillary's one of, what, [a handful of] female senators?
I also like Obama. I even like McCain. I disagree with his war stance -- which is a really big deal -- but I think he's a very moral person. I met him and Hillary on the same day, actually, when I went to Washington with Finca [a nonprofit that gives loans to businesswomen in developing countries].
