![On having the sex talk with her kids: "I said, 'Daddy has a beautiful penis, which enters Mama, and these two precious parts of us join together . . .'

Lucky I got to her first."
On telling her kids she was sexually abused: "I told them that the first time I ever had any sexual encounter, it was abuse. Eventually, my 12-year-old stopped me and said, 'Mum, don't worry. I am way cooler than you were at my age.'"
On Hollywood's evolvement: "I am so grateful for work [that isn't] yet another underwritten role, written for a woman by a man . . .
