- "I live in a town where if you're a woman over 40, you're really passé. In the movies, a Sean Connery can get Catherine Zeta-Jones as a love interest. But Shirley MacLaine can't have Billy Crudup as a boyfriend".
- Now that I'm directing is where I've felt how difficult it is. Out of 200 or so movies made last year, only seven were directed by women. There's been an enormous leap of women producers and heads of studios, but strangely enough, those women haven't given other women a boost. It's very frustrating.
- I felt they had really moved the characters in a direction that was very interesting. The family had really felt the impact of what had happened to the.
- I wanted to play the part that Mary Kay played, the lawyer who wanted to have baby and felt her clock ticking, because it was something I could relate to.
- I think there's a danger of a being typecast as the all-American mom forever.
- Larry Kasdan wanted us all there, all the time, even if we weren't filming.
- I was concerned about doing a sequel and repeating myself. That was before I read the script.
- I would like, certainly, to do different things.
- I've seen my own kids go through their own ups and downs, and as a mother, you want to make it better.
- It was my first scene in any movie and my only scene in Kramer vs. Kramer (1979). I was petrified.
- I think a lot of the time, we don't give our family connections the kind of credit they deserve, like how important they are to us and how much they mean to us. I think family makes all the difference.
- I was raised in cities but I was raised in Texas, so there's a certain amount of connection to the earth.
