Robin Gayle Wright Quotes
- [on the state of film in 2012] Everything now is escapism, because that’s where the money is. There is a vacuum for serious drama. The mid-budget serious drama is something you don’t experience anymore.
- These heavy movies, you carry them with you. Some days, when it would be great to chill and be a mom and just crash, I’m so wired, I can’t turn it off. I would love to do a comedy again, it would be so much fun. Do people know that? Let’s tell ’em!
- Choosing these kinds of intense roles is becoming sort of a bad habit. Playing the average manic-depressive woman who’s hitting 40 – yep, that’d be me. Bring it on! But I think what it is, really, is that [Hollywood] sees you do certain roles and says, ‘Okay, that’s her, let’s cast her again and again as the same thing.’ Then you wind up saying, ‘I’d like to do something else,’ and they whine, ‘But why?’
- On working on the soap Santa Barbara (1984). “I don’t want to knock it. It’s been great. This has been my acting class – and paid training ain’t bad.”
- Famous is celebrityism and I don’t want that. I know that I’m not that. Everybody knows who you are, I can’t imagine living that life.
