Acting, Phoebe Cates

If the film, play or any project I`m involved in requires some sort of violence or nudity to advance the plot, scene or character in any way, then I would be considered unprofessional not to oblige. Of course, I want to make sure -- and I think I always have -- that the scenes are shot in good taste. I try to have some control; now that I know what I`m capable of including in a contract, I can continue that control. Nudity is not something I necessarily want to avoid and yet it`s not the most fun thing in the world to do. It`s part of the job as far as I`m concerned because you bare yourself emotionally and that`s just as terrifying as baring yourself physically. It`s all part of acting.

Like coins between a dying miser's fingers.
