Quotes

  • It's not about gender. In a mature movie, if some nudity improves the scene, it wouldn't matter if it were Alexander or Alexandra. A filmmaker would have to consider it.[2004]
  • It's not enough to come to Hollywood and say you have money. It's much better to say, 'I have a great script and a great director. Want to be partners with me?'.[2003]
