I'm encouraging these women, like Cheryl Strayed, to take the jump to writing for the screen. She is adapting her book Tiny Beautiful Things for us. They're infinitely capable of tackling the format.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
I'd always ask my grandma, who was so, so smart, why she didn't work, and she would explain that her parents didn't approve of her working after she had children. She didn't feel like she had choices.

We each own one car, and we have a reasonable house. It's a lovely place to be, but it's not extravagant.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
There's no bad consequence to loving fully, comma with all your heart. You always gain by giving love.
Reese Witherspoon

As an artist, I feel more strongly than ever that my job on earth is to tell the stories of the invisibles, and women have been invisible on film for a long time.
Reese Witherspoon

I don't know what I would have done so many times in my life if I hadn't had my girlfriends.

My sheets are monogrammed, so is my silverware and pretty much everything else I own. My rule is, if it's not moving -- monogram it!

The truth is... I gave my heart away a long time ago, my whole heart... and I never really got it back.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
Being a Southern person and a blonde, it's not a good combination. Immediately, when people meet you, they think of you as not being smart.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
The joy we get as actors is out of transforming ourselves into something that's not necessarily anything true to ourselves. And it's a power - not being yourself, and being in the role it's just like another prop.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
For our first date, I made Ryan Hamburger Helper, which is basically what I grew up on. I make my own version of it now, with macaroni and cheese and hamburger meat. And the kids - it's their favorite dinner.

I don't want to discount the beautiful work that the fashion houses do, but somehow, just focusing on what you're wearing feels reductive.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
Everything I sang sounded awful. So I went outside and I screamed. Everyone pretty much agreed it was awful.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
I take the kids to church and Sunday school. They love it. I really think it's important for a child to feel that there are things that are bigger than your life out there.
Reese Witherspoon
Image
My kids make me laugh every day. And they're so supportive. As I get older, they understand those things I worried about - the guilt of being gone - in a way that's so healing for me, when they say, Mom, we know you love what you do. We love to watch you do what you do.

I always let my husband read the script so he knows what's about to happen to his wife. When I played Cheryl Strayed in Wild, I'd get really mad about certain things, I'd say really profound things, and I'd curse out of nowhere. He'd say, Are you you, or are you Cheryl?
