Penelope Spheeris

When men have money and power they get turned on, sexually. They get horny as hell. Can't imagine why, though.

Now, it's almost impossible to go out and do a film about a new form of music.

For the most part, studio movies have huge budgets. They don't do anything under 30 to 40 million. When you have that much money at stake, you have so many people breathing down your neck.

They say I can open movies, and that's nice in that it puts into people's minds that women can do it. It's not just Kevin Costner, not just Arnold Schwarzenegger. Not just the guys.

If you're going to go to an audition, you don't want to go in trying to force yourself into some archetype that has been thought up by a director and translated by a casting director.

I loved working with Jamie Lee Curtis, and I felt she was a wonderful actress even that early in her career.
