3 December 2020 Rachel McAdams I use filming as an excuse to take classes. I got my certification in sailing for ‘Wedding Crashers,’ and now I can handle a 26-foot boat. I played a seamstress once, so I took sewing classes. I love dipping into these other lives.
3 December 2020 Abigail Breslin My mom didn’t ever think I would take to acting because I was a very shy, very reserved kind of child. But obviously, something changed!

3 December 2020 Edward Hopper It’s to paint directly on the canvas without any funny business, as it were, and I use almost pure turpentine to start with, adding oil as I go along until the medium becomes pure oil. I use as little oil as I can possibly help, and that’s my method.
