I Think Work Really Is A Life

I Live Quite An Unsettled Life.

The Early Part Of My Career I Really Struggled, Getting Turned Down Again And Again. I Was In Debt, And It Was Horrible. And Then My Family Hit Such Highs In Their Careers, I Asked Myself What I Was Thinking Going Into The Same Profession.

When I Very First Started Out, I Had That Arrogance Of Youth.

Ok, I Wasn't As Successful As, Say, Julia Roberts, But I'd Spent Years In A Very Respectable Career, Some Big American Films But A Host Of Other Smaller, Really Exciting, Maybe Experimental Films, Being Paid Rubbish But Working With Fine People, That Was What I Thought I Was Known For.

The Highest Pay Cheque My Mother Ever Received Funded The Building Of A Nursery School In Shepherd's Bush - The School Cost Well Over Three Times The Money She Donated To The Making Of The Film 'the Palestinian.' Unsurprisingly This Always Goes Unmentioned In The Press.
