Laura: I'm interested in flawed protagonists. I was raised on them. (edit) Laura: I'd never done nudity in a movie. I've never condoned it for myself, but David Lynch wanted it, and I was completely comfortable with it because the love story was so protected. (edit) Laura: I was raised by an actress, and I watched all those women turn sixty and ask, Shouldn't we get face work? My mother and Anne Bancroft said, We're not going to fall into that. (edit) Laura: I wanted to go to Jupiter. That was my plan from day one, and David Lynch gave me the ticket. (edit) Laura: I want to have a psychology degree and work professionally with children.
