Jodie Foster praises young actresses

Jodie Foster was full of praise for young actresses in a recent interview.

The actress spoke highly of young actresses today, and the way they handle things.

“These actresses are amazing,” she said. “They’re great, and their feet are firmly entrenched in drama, which is very nice to see. It is definitely an answer to all those people who say being a young actress in Hollywood will make you crazy. These are very well-adjusted people we’re talking about.

“Their experiences will be very different from mine; it was a different world when I was growing up. News and entertainment were two different compartments, you didn’t have the mad reality show mentality about celebrities then, and actresses that were 17 or 18 weren’t really worth a lot, financially. It’s only recently that young actresses have become a hot commodity in film.”
