Reese Witherspoon Talks About Her Role as Movie Producer
Originally posted 02/27/2008 03:55PM
Without undermining her star status, Reese Witherspoon's resumé just added another line.
The Oscar-winning Walk the Line Best Actress is now a producer.
Her new movie: the offbeat fable Penelope, starring Atonement's James McAvoy and Christina Ricci as the rich girl of the title – who is cursed with a pig nose as she awaits the love of a nobleman.
"This was the first film that we found the script, found the director and did all the heavy lifting," Witherspoon – who is partnered with Jennifer Simpson in the production company Type A Films – tells the Associated Press.

VIDEO: Reese Witherspoon and Christina Ricci Are Pros at Letting Go
Originally posted 02/26/2008 02:05PM
Reese Witherspoon and Christina Ricci have similar outlooks on dealing with very different struggles – just let it go.
In addition to producing and acting in the new flick Penelope, Witherspoon, 31, is also juggling single-motherhood. She tells the Associated Press that cutting herself some slack is the only way to get through.
"I feel like you are always in that negotiation with yourself: How much time at work? How much time at home? And I think you have to give up to the fact that you're never going to totally get it right, but you're never going to totally get it wrong, so if you just let yourself off the hook a little bit it helps a lot," the mom of Eva, 8, and Deacon, 4, said.
Penelope star Ricci, on the other hand, lets pesky photographers off the hook, saying, "In terms of paparazzi or Internet blogs that are mean to you, you just have to do your best to ignore them."
