Q&A: Ashley Judd
— -- Taking a break from the romantic misadventures of Someone Like You, Ashley Judd takes on the PrimeTime Q&A.
Q: If you could be anyone in history, who would you be?A: If I could be anyone in history, I don't think I would want to be someone terribly important. I would either want to be Buddha, because he was happy … or I would want to be, I think, just a normal probably rainforest Aboriginal. I love being outside and I think that that would be … They have such an extraordinary relationship to the Earth and the cosmos and such an imaginative way of explaining this dimension. I think that would be the most fabulous experience.
Q: What's your favorite movie? A: I think my favorite movie changes. But at the moment, and it also has been before — it's making a repeat appearance as my favorite movie, so it might end up being the ultimate victor — Adam's Rib with Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracey. The love story between those two is so ripe and passionate and it's also intellectual. And I love it when she gets all fired up about how she can tell that this woman is going to have a really hard time getting a fair trial. And Spencer Tracey just says, "I love it when you get all cause-y" because he's … he's making fun of her but at the same time, he loves her. And I think actually that happen to me a lot so. It was good for me to be able to see it from his point of view, and how much he loves her. So then it wasn't as frustrating. Do you know what I mean?
Q: What really makes you mad?A: Injustice. Ignorance and injustice.
Q: What would you order for your last meal?A: For my last meal, I think I would want something really, really simple. Like I would want creek water … you know, I would want some fresh water that came from a spring that has a shale rock to it … like you get in Kentucky … I don't think that having, you know, some big greasy meal would be what I would want. I think that I would want something very sort of simple and from the Earth.
