The movie worked because people believed in her heroism. I won't play her with negative attributes she'd never have.

I'm a technician. I don't go for the get-into-the-role stuff. I read the lines and play the scenes.

It's my job, ... I wouldn't not promote my movie and you want to get out there and tell people what it's about and to communicate why you loved it.

'Silence Of The Lambs' was not something people expected me to do.

The world is littered with movies about people that are depressed that either did not come out or are not successful.

If I make two movies my entire life, and they're two movies that - whether they make a lot of money or two people go to see them - they speak of me, then I consider them incredibly successful. I don't need to be Steven Spielberg.
