Actor Julianne Moore has earned an Academy Award and has a resume filled with critically acclaimed roles most actors would envy, yet she admits that she occasionally worries if she'll get another part, she tells Jane Pauley in an interview for CBS SUNDAY MORNING to be broadcast Sunday, March 3 (9:00 AM, ET) on the CBS Television Network.
Feeling a lack of job security is a part of the entertainment industry, she tells Pauley.
"Oh, of course. We all do. All actors do," Moore says. "We are self-employed, you know? And talk to anybody who's self-employed. The minute that job is over you have to find another one. So people always say, 'Why do you worry that, you know, it'll go away?' And I always say, 'Because it's not unprecedented.'"
To her more than 75 film credits, Moore, 58, adds "Gloria Bell." Moore plays a divorced woman spending her nights looking for love on the dance floor. The role joins a variety of characters she's played in the past, including a drug-addicted porn star losing custody of her child in "Boogie Nights" and a 1950s housewife with a bisexual husband in "Far from Heaven."
What's the common thread in those roles that interests Moore, Pauley asks?
"They are generally a woman that people don't see," Moore says. "So she's not always the person that you would consider at the center of the story."
Moore talks with Pauley about her life at home, her career and what it is like to be at THE ACADEMY AWARDS as a nominee.
CBS SUNDAY MORNING is broadcast Sundays (9:00-10:30 AM, ET) on the CBS Television Network. Rand Morrison is the executive producer.
