I like dramas. I've always liked dramas. And I'm a pretty light person. I don't consider myself a very dramatic person. But I do like doing that onscreen.

There is no doubt that each of us is born an individual. Why is it then that so many of us die carbon copies?
Jodie Foster
Image
I prefer to commit 100 per cent to a movie and make fewer films, because it takes over your life.

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.

I'd prefer not to act in the film I'm directing. I think, though, as an actor, you do learn how to turn things on and off quickly and kind of compartmentalize. You learn to accommodate the camera and the other actors, to notice where the boom is and where you mark is, and be able to repeat something a few times.

I don't know why people think child actresses in particular are screwed up. I see kids everywhere who are totally bored. I've never been bored a day in my life.

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.
Jodie Foster
Image
All the movies that I make in some ways have to be the story of my life. There are different chapters in my life.
Jodie Foster
Image
I think there is something to being curious about your choices, but not wanting to kind of pierce the bubble of them, because it takes away from the act of discovering.
Jodie Foster
Image
It was a weird moment in my life and a weird experience [doing a theater]. It made me think, Gee, I don't know if I ever want to do this again. And I love theater. I love going. I love the experience of theater. But I am not sure it's for me.

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

By the first week of shooting, you know exactly where your film is heading based on the psychology of your director.

Image
I think an artist's responsibility is more complex than people realize.

You guys might be surprised, but I am not Honey Boo Boo Child.

Image
I didn't grow up really wanting to be an actor. I don't remember ever not being an actor.
Jodie Foster
Image
I absolutely love religions and the rituals. Even though I don't believe in God, we celebrate pretty much every religion in our family with the kids.

I think Anna and the King is a look at Asia from the Asian perspective, reflecting the Asian experience, which is very rare.

Acting, for me, is exhausting. I'm always more energized by directing. It's more intense to direct. I can pop in and express myself, then pop out again. It's a huge passion for me.
