I Haven't Wanted To Play

Who Can Worry About A Career? Have A Life.

After Blood Simple, Everybody Thought I Was From Texas. After Mississippi Burning, Everybody Thought I Was From Mississippi And Uneducated. After Fargo, Everybody's Going To Think I'm From Minnesota, Pregnant, And Have Blonde Hair. I Don't Think You Can Ever Completely Transform Yourself On Film, But If You Do Your Job Well, You Can Make People Believe That You're The Character You're Trying To Be.

I Don't Need A Director Who's 'good With Actors.'...a Master Manipulator Is Heaven.

I Never Trusted Good-looking Boys.

I Don't Think Of Myself As A Movie Star And I Can Pretty Easily Convince Other People That I'm Not A Movie Star.
