"Well, honestly, both my husband and I tend to ignore the tabloids. We see them every once in awhile or it comes to our attention that we are in a tabloid for one reason or another. But it's always false."
"I think my recognizability ebbs and flows. I don't lead a particularly celebrity lifestyle or anything like that.

I've not been very visible in the last year or so and as a result hardly anyone stops me in the street."

In that, being famous was no different from being gay, or Jewish, or from a visible minority: you are who you are, and then people project onto you some notion they have."

I think it really exists and is part of the human condition. I think in the course of your life you figure out ways to deal with that."
"I like directing. It takes a lot out of you, but I'd like to do it again - I just have to find a story I want to tell."
