Catherine Keener

“Well, for one thing, I like being a supporting actress. I like to come and go in the film. The interesting characters are very few if you want to be the lead, and they depend on you being beautiful. Since I'm not interested in those parts, the pressure's off, in a way. I'm not cast for my physicality. I find that playing so many characters in so many films is a way to be in the moment.”

    LOVELY & AMAZING

    NICOLE HOLOFCENER United States, 2001

    Catherine Keener’s second collaboration with Nicole Holofcener shines with the actor’s breezy charm and the director’s wry insight. Co-starring a baby Jake Gyllenhaal and romcom heart-melter Dermot Mulroney, this lovely comedy looks on at the neuroses of American women with warm, honest affection.
