More quotes by Jessica Lange
The worst is when I talk myself into something. Sometimes you take things because you want to work with a certain actor, or you want to work with a director, even if the script or the part's not that great.
Jessica Lange
Successful model? That's a myth. The year I modeled was the most painful year of my life. Editors would always talk to you in the third person as though you were merely a piece of merchandise.
Jessica Lange
There was a period of time when I was very political, when I was at the university. It was like the late '60s, early '70s and I was a dissident like everybody else I guess. Now I follow it but there's nothing that really grabs me. The most fascinating thing to me right now is China.
Jessica Lange
I like playing characters who are out there on the edge, where they can explode at any moment or fall off the precipice.
Jessica Lange
Sometimes the odds are against you-the director doesn't know what the hell he's doing, or something falls apart in the production, or you're working with an actor who's just unbearable.
Jessica Lange
I love men. I've always been drawn to poets, artists, and madmen. Sometimes all three in one
Jessica Lange
To work with a director that has emotional commitment and passion toward the characters, and the piece, and the experiences, it only enriches your work.
Jessica Lange
I have made decisions based from purely an actor's point of view.
Jessica Lange
As an actor, you have to have trust and believe that somebody is taking care of you or watching your back. With a part like this, especially with where we're going with it, I can't pull any punches. I can't do it halfway, especially when you're dealing with madness and this descent into madness.
Jessica Lange
I never felt like I belonged in Minnesota when I was growing up there. That's why I was out the door as soon as I turned 18.
Jessica Lange
The thing with psychoanalysis is I know basically what happened in my childhood. I know where things went wrong and I know what my mother said at one point and what my father said at one point.
Jessica Lange
I worked on my voice for 'Sweet Dreams' but only to match my speaking voice to Patsy's actual singing voice. That was my way into that character.
Jessica Lange
Once I started on 'Frances' I discovered it was literally a bottomless well. It devastated me to maintain that for eighteen weeks, to be immersed in this state of rage for twelve to eighteen hours a day. It spilled all over, into other areas of my life.
Jessica Lange
I had a big family - two older sisters and a younger brother. My family was like moving around a lot so I lived in a lot of small towns. My father was very restless.
Jessica Lange
I want to live my life with no goals anymore, but just completely free, like I did when I was younger.
Jessica Lange
I could be making a lot more money now if I had chosen a different kind of movie, but none of that matters to me... I've done the parts I wanted to do.
Jessica Lange
Sometimes parts just come along when it's the perfect time for you to do them.
Jessica Lange
To stay interested in acting, I have to keep trying stuff I've never done before.
Jessica Lange
Don't be absent from your own life.
Jessica Lange
I do love acting. But to work as a photojournalist would have been extraordinary.
