Jennifer Connelly : (3) " I’ve chosen not to live in Hollywood, and instead I live in Brooklyn, New York. It’s how I like to live. I’d rather hang out with my kids and family when I’m not working. Going to premieres is not my idea of a fun night out. " - Jennifer Connelly " The thing that really matters to me is well-being and happiness. Maybe it comes from knowing people who have tortured themselves trying to meet these strangely narrow and rigorous definitions of what our culture thinks is beautiful. " - Jennifer Connelly " I pick different projects for different reasons. Usually, it’s a combination of things. I admire the director, and I am interested in working with the director. Or, it’s the cast. I can be moved by the story. The ideal situation is you love the director and you love the cast. " - Jennifer Connelly
