Diane Keaton, 1980.

“I could never write female characters when I started out. And when I met Diane Keaton, and got friendly with her, and lived with her for a few years, I became so enamoured of her, I just fell in love with her. I became so enamoured of her as a human being, so in awe of her, that I started to write for her. I wrote Annie Hall for her, and then after that I could almost only write for women characters. They were cardboard figures before her, and I made no effort to change it, but after I met Keaton I could write women, and only write women, that was all that interested me.”- Woody Allen

New York, 1978: Sissy Spacek and Diane Keaton, definitely seem in a party mood at Sardi’s in New York during a party which they received New Yorks film Critics Awards. Diane was honored as “Best Actress” for her appearance in, “Anne Hall.” Sissy was names “Best Supporting Actress” for her work in, “Three Women.”

“I see myself as an oddball” - Diane Keaton

The person that I admire the career the most is Diane Keaton, because she’s found a way to do it all and to do it all her way. She doesn’t remind me of anybody else and she seems authentic to me. She also seems very nervous and I can empathize with that. I love her in comedy and I loved her in The Godfather, and I love her in Looking for Mr. Goodbar. I think that she can do it all, in a very special way. She puts it all together herself and that makes me want to be more myself. So it’s not really that I’d like to be like her, it’s that she inspires me to be more whatever my path is.—Emma Stone

“When I was younger I had these enormous vanities about what I expected from myself. I`m glad to have a comfortable and fascinating life, but now I see it for what it is, so I can be braver and more spontaneous and say to myself, “Oh, screw it, just go out there and do it.”
