Respiro E Movimento

Hunter notes that even successful actors find themselves in a constant state of transience. She explains, “An actor’s career is in a constant state of metamorphosis. I don’t know what I’ll be doing in two months. Where will I be?” For example, few would have expected Hunter to star in a movie produced by Judd Apatow at her stage of her career. She points out, “I love there’s a part of my life that’s uncertain and unknown. There’s a part of that that I resent, but I’ve learned to live with it. More than anything, I wanna keep it real. I wanna keep my face real. This is hard, particularly for actresses as they get older. I want people to understand my face. I don’t wanna do stuff to my face where people don’t recognize me anymore. ‘I think that’s Holly Hunter?’ [Laughs.] It’s a constant negotiation for actresses — you wanna be photographable, but you also wanna get older because that’s real. I don’t want anyone to ever wonder who I am.”
