Out of her bag she pulls a paperback--Adam Gopnik's Paris to the Moon--and the bookmark is an envelope. "How's this for affectation?" she laughs. "It's my vote." Inside the envelope is her official Oscar ballot, all ready for PricewaterhouseCoopers. "It's sealed," she says. "It's got to be sent."

"No," she says. "Not every year."
