Frances Louise McDormand Quotes

  • [on plastic surgery] I have not mutated myself in any way. Joel (Coen, her director husband) and I have this conversation a lot. He literally has to stop me physically from saying something to people – to friends who’ve had work. I’m so full of fear and rage about what they’ve done.
  • I’ve got a rubber face. It has always served me very well and really helps, especially as I get older, because I still have all my road map intact, and I can use it at will.
  • I don’t like award shows. At our house we call this time of year ‘the convention’. It’s too bad we haven’t figured out how to stop it. But I think it will come around because of the Internet – I think it will naturally go away. We’ll have other ways to gather; it’s not going to be this stuff. The shoes hurt too much.
  • You have to get away from the theater or from the set and live life. If you work constantly from job to job, you’re living in a fantasy world and you have nothing else to offer than fantasy.
  • With most people when there’s a pain in their life there’s mental scar tissue that forms over the pain and helps you go on living. An actor’s scar tissue really never covers over things the same way, not if you’re going to be sensitive. With good technique, an actor can do that and walk through life without going insane.
  • I’m a character actress, plain and simple…Who can worry about a career? Have a life. Movie stars have careers – actors work, and then they don’t work, and then they work again.
  • On “women’s pictures”: “Most women’s pictures are as boring and as formulaic as men’s pictures. In place of a car chase or a battle scene, what you get is an extreme closeup of a woman breaking down. I cry too, maybe three times a week, but it’s not in closeup. It’s a wide shot. It’s in the context of a very large and very mean world.”
  • On playing ‘mothers’: “Those roles weren’t just mothers in a story about a male protagonist. First they were specific, three-dimensional people.”
  • [on how she got the part in Fargo (1996)] “The fact that I’m sleeping with the director may have something to do with it.”
