@drewbarrymore : Current mood. I Just finished the hardest film I’ve done since Grey Gardens. I play two different women. Candy and Paula. And many characters within them both. I laughed. I cried. I wore prosthetics (by Vivian Baker, the make up artist, who did Grey Gardens with me) (and my Voice coach Liz Himmelstien who is the best in class and taught me Edie Beals voice too!) we wore over 15 wigs by Mr Daniel Howell. Jamie Babbit, our director picked me to be her two actresses! I didn’t think i could truly be different women and not twins. I faced my worst fears. Which was failure to launch let alone pull this off. The film is called “The Stand In” and I am really proud right now. I went method. I didn’t speak to anyone unless i was in one of the two characters voices or names. I pulled crazy hours. I never let go of the fear so that I would keep working harder on this job than I ever have in my life. And i have worked my whole life like it always matters. I started in diapers. My mom put me in front of a camera at 11 months old. And this might be the best work i have ever done since that fateful day. I bared my soul. And the lesson I told my daughters the whole way through making the film (which they would come and visit often) was that if you want to do your best, you have to work harder than you ever have. I also never had two girls to win over and impress like my daughters. If I have made them proud and showed them that an infallible work ethic is key, well than I really did my job. We shall now see how this film turns out. But I loved. I lived. And I kicked some mother ass. And if you feel like this guy looks in this painting after a job well done, than all I have to say is congratulations to anyone that dared to try.
