ADD QUOTES
- A: (on acting with John Wayne) John Wayne was my father's favorite actor, and we went to the local drive-in theatre to see every one of his movies. We'd have to wear our pajamas, cause we'd always fall asleep in the car on the way home, and when I actually met "The Duke" I had the strangest sense of deja vu, like I was still wearing those pajamas.

- A: (on acting with Meryl Streep) To me, Meryl is the best in the business and to play opposite her especially doing comedy was like getting to go to the University of Great Acting every day.
