Did You Know?

Personal Quote:

[on Barbra Streisand, directing her in Yentl] She'd fix my hair ribbons, brush an eyelash off my cheek, paint my lips to match the color of the fruit on the table. I was like her little doll that she could dress up. See more »

Trivia:

The scene in Carrie where her character Sue is walking along the footpath to put flowers on Carrie's burnt house (dream sequence). Director Brian De Palma wanted Amy to walk backwards in that shot in order to make it look more "dreamy". That is why a car in the background appears to be driving in reverse and birds are flying backwards. See more »
