I'mn not surprised, she strikes me as someone with a great sense of humour. This movie is GOLD.
shareshe strikes me as someone who has been in a lot of bad plays
shareI would think almost everyone in show business has been in a lot of bad plays. They have to pay the rent after all, and scripts of staggering genius don't turn up in the post every week.
they say the highway's one big road
and it goes from here to there
I knew I always liked that girl.
shareKate Winslet: Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward got away with it. You put enormous pressure on yourself. I don't think that Sam and I would disagree on a lot of things in that situation. Even if I did disagree with him, I would still do what he wanted to do. It's very much part of my job to respect whatever vision the director has, even if I think it's crazy. But I think about what it would be like, and I honestly think that we would have such a laugh. No one makes me laugh like Sam. We're obsessed with Waiting for Guffman. I drive Sam mad because I do all the dialogue, all the songs, do all the dance moves.
G: You should be in a Christopher Guest movie.
KW: I would absolutely die to be in a Christopher Guest movie! But I'm sine they'd never have me. I'm too much of a face, and he likes to have those kind of indie actors. Titanic being the exception, I would completely consider myself to be an indie actor! This is going to make me sound like a nerdy fan.

Better late than never, but thanks for posting this! I always enjoy reading about Guffman/Guest fans.

She's a great, smart actress with great taste and sense of humour :)

That's so cool to know. I can't say I'm surprised. Also I can actually see her being pretty good in a Guest movie. I saw her on Extras with Ricky Gervais a while ago and she was playing a dirty nun or something and she was actually pretty funny.
I love the Internet.
