I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure simply because you had to be prepared to go through an idea without any fear. Failure you learned as I did in art school to be a wonderful thing. It allowed you to get up in the morning and take the pillow off your head.
It would be great to be able to pass on to someone all of the successes the failures and the knowledge that one has had. To help someone avoid all the fire pain and anxiety would be wonderful.
It evolved from my experience in the fifties growing up during the McCarthy era and hearing a lot of assumptions that America was wonderful and Communism was terrible.
I feel responsible that everyone has a really wonderful experience and to do the best work possible and to always know my lines and to always be on time and to bring a level to the show in terms of quality that other people will follow.
In my experience it's all wonderful with girls until about 16. Around that time boys kind of calm down and start focusing their testosterone. Girls get a little challenging especially for fathers.
It's wonderful to be in love. And it's definitely wonderful to cuddle and have sex and get to experience life with somebody. But it's OK if you don't find him and you're 24. You can find it someday.
I had a heartbreaking experience when I was 9. I always wanted to be a guard. The most wonderful girl in the world was a guard. When I got polio and then went back to school they made me a guard. A teacher took away my guard button.
The wonderful thing about acting is you move along with your decade. The older you get the more interesting the parts you get to play and you bring more of your personal experience to the part.
I was so emotional. Choked up. I could hardly talk all day. I'll be cleaning out my trailer and saying goodbye soon realizing what a wonderful experience this has been.
Any film or to me any creative endeavour no matter who you're working with is in many cases a wonderful experience.
