Deregulation created this epidemic of greed which according to the rules of capitalism was OK. Beyond that there was criminal behaviour. There have been no repercussions and it's hard to make your peace with.
For a long time, I really struggled with the idea of being an actor because I really felt that I should be in the Peace Corps.
People who avoid the brick walls - all power to ya, but we all have to hit them sometimes in order to push through to the next level, to evolve.
I think Julia is defining a new feminism. It's the power of the open heart. And its ok to be sexual.
