Insightful lady, following Freud's advice to focus on love and work.
Thank you, Liv, for the "boulder" advice. I pondered this as I got ready for work yesterday and then put it in motion as soon as I got to my office. By noon, I had moved three "boulders" which I was putting off because they seemed so daunting. The rest of my day was lighter and focused on the "pebbles." Great, simple advice which I will continue to implement. I appreciate you sharing!

She has always carried herself with elegance and peace. There is a core stillness to her acting. It makes her so much more than just another pretty face.

A charming interview of a lovely and very interesting woman. Liv Tyler was destined by her genetic ancestry to be gorgeous and rock-and-roll, and she fulfilled her destiny.

She's been lovely and graceful in several movies, and she seems like a nice person in interviews. I have and enjoy her book on etiquette that she co-wrote with her grandmother. An interesting family!

How is it possible that an organization as impressive as the NYT cannot fact check/edit their articles (online or not) to know that a significant show is on HBO not Showtime. I love the NYT, but I am consistently disappointed by the lack of control of the online articles. There are an enormous amounts of "corrections" which, to me, are just lazy or cost saving due to using bots or staff that are not getting the job done. The NYT is one of the last places left of quality; is it wrong to ask that the quality pervades the organization as it would have in the 80's and before?
Thank you...

I like Liv Tyler as an actor. It must be hard to balance bein g a parent and an actor.

Fame is cheap these days. Relevance not so much.

A rock and roller and model’s daughter. Is anyone in the film industry not related to someone already famous?

To correct the historical record, I think that Liv Tyler's mother Bebe Buelle's fame came more from her time as a very famous groupie rather than as an actress. Bebe Buelle was the real-world inspiration for the fictional character Penny Lane (played by Kate Hudson) in the movie "Almost Famous." So both Liv Tyler's parents were rock-and-roll legends in their own way.

The Leftovers was on HBO, not Showtime

Leftovers was HBO not Showtime, I believe.

“I feel like women are so often times, quite judgmental and negative toward each other, more than men are toward women,” she said. “Sometimes I think it’s important to stop and take stock of that, how quickly we can gossip or make assumptions about other women.”
Ms. Tyler is quite beautiful, wealthy, and a movie star. I don’t doubt that she’s dealt with the envy and resentment from less-blessed women for most of her life. I’m fairly average by comparison, but my biggest detractors and bullies have always been women—up to and including professional life. It’s depressing.

@Greenie. I a man. And same for me. I hope by the time my daughter has entered the work world that women will feel secure enough to treat their colleagues kindly - both men and women. This will only happen, however, if the fear and anxiety that plagues women in every type of work place is ameliorated. I doubt that will ever come to pass. One, male discrimination and resentment will never end just as racism will never end. Two, hyper-capitalism has ended any loyalty employers once had to All employees, Everyone lives in fear of being laid off, shunted into a dead end, or de-equitized. Fear and anxiety breed jealousy and back-biting, and in the worst case backstabbing. We live in an even more anxious Age of Anxiety” than even Auden could have imagined.

My sister-in-law was born and raised in London but has lived in the USA for 30-35 years. I think her accent remains distinct and pronounced but she reports the last time she visited family all her siblings said her new USA accent was obvious and unsettling to the ears.

This prompted me to look up cognitive behavioural therapy. I wish our entire society would do some inner work.
