I was lucky enough when I was about 30, 31, to be invited at a dinner.
It was a small dinner in New York.
I lived in New York for 10 years.
And it was a small dinner with a group of people who my husband at the time, Sam Mendes, he had just worked with.
Paul Newman and Tom Hanks.
Wow.
And somehow I found myself having a meal with them.
There were maybe seven or eight of us.
And Paul Newman ordered 24 oysters.
And I was sat beside him and they were passed around the table.
He's a very, very generous man.
It's the only time I met him.
Passed around the table, would you like an oyster?
Would you like one?
Would you like one?
I'm thinking, oh God, he's going to offer me a fucking oyster and I'm going to have to say no.
The plate came to me, and how about you?
Would you like an oyster?
And I said, no, thank you.
And I looked at his eyes, and I went, actually, yes.
