I still want to do a romantic comedy or a western or a gritty independent film... there's so much that I still want to do.
I am not married, no. I wasn't really into the notion when I was younger, but now I think a proposal is the ultimate romantic gesture.
I'm from L.A., so I'm used to seeing people in sunglasses and flip-flops. There's something so romantic about a man in a scarf and a knitted hat.
Moving to the country is a very bold thing to do. You can have vague romantic notions about doing that, but in actuality, it can be a terrifying thing.
I always think the most romantic books or films are the ones where the romance doesn't happen, because it makes your heart ache so much watching it.
I was comfortable in my thirties playing the romantic partner, the hero that saves the day, or the woman who is facing a world that revolves around younger kid actors.
My husband, Sal, and I put date nights on the calendar once a week. I know that doesn't sound romantic, but otherwise it won't get done.
How far away the stars seem, and how far is our first kiss, and ah, how old my heart.
Reverse every natural instinct and do the opposite of what you are inclined to do, and you will probably come very close to having a perfect golf swing.
If you are going to throw a club, it is important to throw it ahead of you, down the fairway, so you don't have to waste energy going back to pick it up.
I'm a mum, so my wardrobe consists of sweaters and jeans. As long as I don't leave the house forgetting my jeans, I count that as a fashion success.
Children, even infants, are capable of sympathy. But only after adolescence are we capable of compassion.
I love an old-school gentleman. Picking me up for dates, sending flowers, holding the door open, I love it all.
I love producing! It's so much fun to start with a blank canvas and create the picture you want to create and see it all come together.
I love being a writer-director. I couldn't imagine directing without writing it. You have to write and tell your stories - that's what directing is to me.
I always had a love of music, from the time I was a little kid, dressing up and singing along with Michael Jackson songs.
I love the Bee Gees, but only the pre-disco stuff. From '64 to '69, I've got all their albums.
When a book is just a plot, you know, two men fight for the love of a woman in a wild frontier, I immediately ask, 'Why?'
When I wrote songs like 'Everyone I Love is Dead,' I never thought about how I was going to execute them live.
It's really hard to find a love song that is real. That's when you really strike a chord with somebody, when you dig in deep and grab a hold.
I just love music in general. I've been a fan of all different kinds of music since I can remember.
