Jodie Foster

Jodie Foster

Jodie Foster
I did a couple of plays in junior high school, maybe high school, and then I did a play in college.
Jodie Foster
I've always had this idea that I wanted movies to make people better not worse.
Jodie Foster
I've got that Irish thing going on. Lots of Irish in my background.
Jodie Foster
