I admire her for giving it up just to do her own thing


Some people look down on her for wanting to be a full time mum and wife not been a big name in Hollywood. She seems like she's far more comfortable out of the spotlight and helping talent through her acting school. I admire that, been a star or a actress isn't the be all and end all for some talent.

Her C.V had some gems in it, Drag Me to Hell. Matchstick Men, Big Fish, White Oleander, Where the Truth Lies, Beowulf and Things We Lost In The Fire. I don't want to go on like some that she was the second coming of Meryl Streep like talent we lost, she wasn't. She's was a good actress, had the looks to be a popular star but I don't think she had the desire to be one and that's fine.
