I mean, I think they sort of go hand in hand, and you just keep... You keep growing as a person and then you put that into your work and then your work grows you in another direction and you take that back into your personhood. And I think that's why this can be truly a healing experience.

Like I think of playing, like when I played Steven Spielberg's mother, I think about her aura and her zest for to make the ordinary moments a little something extra to hang on to. Her appreciation, her love. Her lustiness for the mountains, for the desert, for color, for her lipstick, for her children, for her lover, for everything. I think about that.

Yeah, it was, boy oh boy, I was 30 when I made that movie, and that was just the hardest thing I'd ever done. I think I cried every morning and every night. Why was it the hardest thing? Because I'd never tried anything so audacious, and I'd never tried anything that was so far from my idea of myself. And... I don't know how I was crazy enough to say yes to that.

Because I had zero evidence that it was something that I would be capable of. But again, I have this drive and maybe it is because... I lack formal education. I have this real need to learn new things. And so when I looked at that role, I just thought, well, there's a lot of learning there. And I was right because it landed me in London and it landed me with these master teachers.

And so it gave me this kind of crash course to a way of working that I hadn't experienced before, this physical reinvention. to have to learn how to completely remake my own body with my own habits and propensities and holdings, to let go of those and to allow a new structure to emerge that was more similar to Marilynne. And that was very painful.
