More quotes by Laura Dern
I don't turn my nose up at anything. If it's a great part, it's a great part. I'd love to do a box-office hit.
Laura Dern
I'm interested in flawed protagonists. I was raised on them.
Laura Dern
I would say Steven Spielberg is family to me. He's a genius. We survived a hurricane together. I ran from half-puppet,half-nothing creatures. It was months of our life as family. It was the wildest film, Jurassic Park, I'd ever worked on that way.
Laura Dern
What do you say when someone has truly inspired you? How do you express to an artist how deeply their work has affected you?
Laura Dern
Luckily, I was raised by people whod already seen all the yuck stuff, which is why they originally didnt want me to act. I understood the difference between getting a part at a Hollywood party and getting a job.
Laura Dern
I'm interested in human nature. That's why I chose to become an actor. Whatever people are struggling with, the struggle is often where the drama is.
Laura Dern
You're not directing an actor toward a thing they can't achieve. Because direction is elusive. When directors hold respect for the various craftsmen and -women who are telling the story, it's the greatest result. I think people do their bravest work when given an elusive canvas.
Laura Dern
The really courageous and bold thing is to make movies about human behaviour
Laura Dern
I went to a Catholic school. The private school was good - the teachers wanted all of us to have the freedom to think for ourselves. The education was good at the Catholic school, but you only got that one ideology.
Laura Dern
I do think my mother was a bit overprotective, not in any sordid way, but just normally. She certainly might say to me, You know, Laura, I don't have a good feeling about that guy. I don't know if I want you to go out with him.
Laura Dern
I love comedy. David's Lynch the only person I've worked with more than once who sees me as a specific thing - he sees me as the sexy bimbo, in ways, and he also sees me as Lucille Ball. Actually, Nick Cage and I did Lucy and Ricky in two scenes in Wild at heart that were cut because the movie was four hours long.
Laura Dern
It sounds like a cliché, but mother is really one of my closest friends, and so's my dad. He and I weren't very close when I was younger, but now we're best friends.
Laura Dern
When you're playing someone who has a strong ego about themselves, you can't play them when you have the opposite opinion of the one they have of themselves.
Laura Dern
When man decides he can control nature, he's in deep trouble
Laura Dern
My mother opened a bank account for me when I made $60 on my first day of work as an extra. She's that kind of mother.
Laura Dern
Whatever character you play, it gives you the chance to expose another side of yourself that maybe you've never felt comfortable with, or never knew about
Laura Dern
As someone who has been asked to ask David Lynch what his movies mean for 25 years, I'm very careful about asking artists what their art means.
Laura Dern
I don't turn my nose up at anything. If it's a great part, it's a great part. It's not like, I don't make studio films I work for David Lynch and maybe a few American Playhouse directors, but that's it - I'd love to do a box-office hit.
Laura Dern
I love to rescue animals.... The pounds were so crowded they were putting animals down almost immediately. Seven thousand dogs were put to sleep.
Laura Dern
I really don't consider myself to be a conventional Hollywood star. I've never really been marketed by the big studios to do mass market box office films.
