Boys are easy. I mean, there are just a lot of bruises when they're young. With boys, you get a lot of accidental jabs in the eye and stepping on your feet, and those tantrums they cause when they don't want to leave the toy store.

Image
I had to take my makeup off at work every night. I wasn't allowed to do it at home because my mom said that when your work day is done, you're done with work.

When I go into the stores, I pet the saddles. Until security comes and takes me away.

Adolescence is a tough one to be a child actor.
Jodie Foster
Image
But the reason I became, why I wanted to be in the business was because there was Midnight Cowboy.
Jodie Foster
Image
I prefer to commit 100 per cent to a movie and make fewer films, because it takes over your life.

Image
Look, it's terrible, I know, but weakness really, really bugs me, to the point that if there is a wounded bird on the sidewalk, I look at it and I go: I think I'll just kick it.
