On filmmaking
“I went to an audition once, and the director asked me to name two rivers. I chose the Tigris and the Euphrates, because those are the only two rivers I’ve heard of. He then told me to name two more rivers. Panicked, I asked if he remembered the first two rivers that I’d said. He said no, so I chose the Tigris and the Euphrates again. He thanked me for my time, and the next day, I got the part.”
—Julianne Moore
On her best audition
“I saved up the money to buy my first car by convincing people they had children that didn’t exist and then babysitting their fake kids. Honestly, if I had to do it over again, I probably would have just babysat for people who actually had kids, but what did I know—I was only 42 years old.”
—Oprah Winfrey
