Maggie Gyllenhaal: Things I’ve Learned as a Moviemaker

Sometimes Maggie Gyllenhaal has worked on films with directors who appreciated her brilliance. Sometimes she hasn’t.

“I have learned over the years as an actress that most people — and there are exceptions, and they’re incredible, and they’re always the most exciting directors — most people are not really that interested in an actress with a whole lot of ideas,” Gyllenhaal says. “So I learned as an actress over the years how to take what I needed artistically without asking for too much.”
