What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, more unashamed conversation.
Glenn Close
Image
I really hope it engenders a lot of conversation because I believe there are a lot of people who put on faces. We all do it, every time we walk out the door. And there are a lot of people who have to hide who they are. And I think this story speaks to that.

It always amazes me to think that every house on every street is full of so many stories so many triumphs and tragedies, and all we see are yards and driveways.

Just play the moment, that's the fun of it. You just play the moment. It's great writing and very clever writing, I think it's witty. And I have those great clothes.

And when you're with a great crew like we had, it becomes a thrilling, again, collaboration, which is to me one of the great aspects of the process that you go through. I find myself at this point in my career, getting potentially, incredibly bored if I stand around a lot, so that's why I really like the pace of television.

When they tested Fatal Attraction, the audiences were so upset by her behavior, they literally demanded her blood.
Glenn Close
Image
I don't have the body or the face for romantic comedies, so I've never been offered those. The challenge is that a lot of people see you only as your last character, so you're constantly competing with whatever your last movie was.

I don't think the tabloids find me very interesting.
Glenn Close
Image
I think the diva is kind of a cliche. My definition of a diva is somebody whose talent does not match what they're trying to play, so all this temperament comes out.
Glenn Close
Image
I grew up with a house full of dogs. My mother was a great nature lover and taught us to have almost a religious sense of respect for the natural world.

We have to be vulnerable as actors, but we have to protect ourselves.
