Sean Smith (from Premiere magazine) on Jodie Foster:

Her voice hasn't changed. You can still hear the tomboy in tennis shoes, the 12-year-old toughie. Yet that face seems to acquire new angles each year, as if some unseen diamond cutter were chiseling away the last bit of rough. We have been watching Jodie Foster for four decades now, and she continues to intrigue us. Perhaps this is because, while we may love to watch Julia fall in love, we love to watch Jodie think.

What a lovely way to be described.
