Independent films have a very different cachet than success films.
Diane Lane
Image
I think that directing is the ultimate martyred task of filmmaking, that it has nobility to it. It takes three years to make a film, for the most part. I think it requires the attentiveness of a mother hen. I don't know how people raise children and direct films. I'm sorry, I don't know, how can you be good at both?

I loved acting, I started as a child and it is interesting because I didn't compare myself to others that were doing the same thing. I just felt that I needed to stay focused and stay out of trouble.
Diane Lane
Image
Because that's what intimacy is: It's a willingness to be vulnerable, a willingness to bite my tongue and a willingness to set an example of what I believe in.
Diane Lane
Image
My roles are in some way like children to me. You don't ever really want to scrape one off your shoe.
Diane Lane
Image
I try not to be overly analytical.
Diane Lane
Image
I think the secret to happiness is having a Teflon soul. Whatever comes your way, you either let it slide or you cook with it.

For me, going away to work is the hardest part of my life and career.

I wish I could always look like I've just finished a really good laugh.

Every film is its own experience, its own planet, its own family. It seems infinite when you're working on it, and then it's suddenly very finite, and it's done.
Diane Lane
Image
I don't know what it is, exactly, but there's a negative drag on film sets after the second week or so, a mutinous vibe because the infinite capacities of the directors and everybody else become quite finite and everybody's under the gun and it becomes work.
