The imperative

Ladies and gentlemen, my first guest tonight is a director and an actress with two Academy Awards who has entertained audiences for over 50 years.

She now stars in the film A Private Life.

Please welcome back to the Late Show Jodie Foster.

All the late night people need you in order to tell them all the silliness of what's what.

You know, I've said to you before, I'm a big fan, not only of your acting, but

This is a famous image of you from Contact here.

You got a scarf on under the hat, and you got headphones on.

It's almost like you don't want people to see your hair.

That tells you a little something about my personality.

One is that when it comes to clothes, I'm kind of like, yeah, whatever, I'll wear it.

You know when somebody's really insisting and really says, like, we really want you to wear this hat?

Is this the largest hat you've ever acted in?

I'm going to test that theory a little bit later.

What I really wanted you about was Carl Sagan.

Carl Sagan was still with us when this movie was made.

You know, he's a hero of mine, of all of ours.

And he had written the original screenplay.

He decided one day that he was gonna write a screenplay.

And then years later, resurrected it and said, now can somebody who can write a screenplay Write a screenplay for my book.

You've got the new film that we're going to talk about in just here called Private Life.

Because they don't understand English over there.

Le bibliotheque et derriere les toilette.

First of all, how did it happen that you.

I did a little French movie when I was a kid and then a couple of little small roles, but

I've always wanted to do something more challenging.

You speak a fair amount of French in Elysium, too.

Well, yeah, the real thing is I have more knowledge of your career than you do.
