Maggie Q: Watchlist

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition
"How much I cry! The last time I cried that hard was The Land Before Time! I was at a party with my lawyer at the Toronto Film Festival.

Let's just watch the last half-hour," which is the worst half-hour, the worst of the best. At the end of that half-hour, we were a mess, and she looked at me, like, "Thanks, Maggie! Now we're going to go out all puffy in the face!" "
