Certainly people have a lot tougher situations than I’ve had to deal with. But I will say we are all dying from the moment we are born. This is not just rehearsal.

I did a film called ‘Floating’ early on that had a scene which was similar to a real-life situation I was in at the time. It involved me having a conversation with my father, who was dying. It was close to home and it made me realise acting wasn’t just making faces for the cameras, it was a real art form.
Most of the villagers were hiding in the bush, where they were dying from bad water, malaria and malnutrition.

I’m dying to go to India… because the culture seems so vastly different from what I’m used to in the States. I would love to do some yoga there. And be amongst people who are so different than myself. There’s so much you can learn from people who grew up in a different environment.
I trust myself. I trust my instincts. I know what I’m gonna do, what I can do, what I can’t do. I’ve been through a lot, and I could go through more, but I hope I don’t have to. But if I did, I’d be able to do it. I’m not going to enjoy dying, but there’s not much prep for that.

In 1965, I went to what was called the worst Bihar famine in India, and I saw starvation, death, people dying of hunger, for the first time. It changed my life. I came back home, told my mother, ‘I’d like to live and work in a village.’ Mother went into a coma.

It hurts, it hurts… Im dying, I’m dying.
