Critics and academics often employ theories and philosophers in order to help them understand and dissect movies and books.
I played Winnie Cooper on 'The Wonder Years' from ages 12-18, and did a few other movies during some of the summers.
In movies and in television the robots are always evil. I guess I am not into the whole brooding cyberpunk dystopia thing.
I wasn't allowed to go to movies when I was kid; my father was a minister. 101 Dalmatians and King of Kings, that was the extent of it.

In Hollywood, I'm lucky, I only do big movies like 'Blade.' It's much more comfortable: you have a trailer.

I have always been drawn to coming-of-age stories and books and movies featuring compelling young characters.
For true downtime, I enjoy going for light runs, having drinks with friends and going to the movies with my husband.

I've been offered lots of movies. There's always some actor who's doing a project and would like to have me do it.

Comedians do movies and TV so that when they tour, they sell out. That's the goal: To get popular enough so the place is packed.
I am a giant proponent of giant screens. But I accept the fact that most of my movies are going to be seen on phones.
In Hollywood you can't even smoke in a bar anymore and yet in the movies they're always showing people smoking. I don't get it.
'Dr. Strangelove' was and is one of my favorite movies ever, and I just can't believe they actually blew up the world after that.
I'm not surprised that Spielberg was able to capture the heroism of Schindler; so many of his movies are about the better part of mankind.
