Play Quotes

In the contract days, the big studios groomed us to play particular roles and we would stay with the image they gave us and insisted on Picture Quote #1

However, most of my part, I play a pediatrician, and most of my role had to do with being in another place, staying at the hospital and trying to save kids and stay until people could come. So, it was more based on reality Picture Quote #1

I just play because I love playing and I try and take as many wickets as I can Picture Quote #1

I know how I want to dress, I know what kind of house I want to live in, I just know more about myself, and that’s true about the roles I want to play and what parts of myself I want to express. You’re just more in touch with yourself Picture Quote #1

I wanted to play a mother again. I thought it would be interesting to play the mother of an older child. And it was also the kind of part I’ve been looking for my whole career, actually, in film. You know, just to play a femme fatale who’s very smart, and wicked Picture Quote #1

All I ever wanted to do was play the drums; I felt good about myself when I played the drums. So I worked anywhere and everywhere I could lug my drums in Picture Quote #1
