About Rene Russo: Rene Marie Russo is an American actress, producer and former model.
I have nothing against younger women and older men on screen. What is sad is that so many women over 40 who have so much to give aren't being considered to play opposite men their own age or younger.
Maybe it's that I'm naive, but I don't think of myself as an age.
Every day, every birthday candle I blow out, every penny I throw over my shoulder in a wishing well, every time my daughter says, 'Let's make a wish on a star,' there's one thing I wish for: wisdom.
I'm always drawn to melancholy personalities.
Being married, I would say most relationships are pretty codependent in some ways.
I think all writers are different. I've been with a few writers; they're all different.
I always go into a film situation depressed and fearful.
I am self-conscious, and I'm aware of my body. But I struggle with America's limited idea of what perfection is.
I envy my daughter's childhood.
In high school, I was very unpopular.
I have an unusual face.
I was a high-school dropout; I was a loner.
I was never the kind of person who cared much what people thought about me.
I don't know much about sports.
I'm a California girl, and I'd love to restore a sense of place to Southern California.
