Hostage to fortune: Jodie Foster directs as Julia Roberts and George Clooney star in Money Monster

JODIE Foster looks youthful at 53. She says she stays relaxed because she doesn’t work too hard and in recent years she’s been a devoted mum to her sons, Charlie (born 1998) and Kit (born 2001).
Although a world-famous actress because of her roles in movies such as Silence of the Lambs and The Accused, her heart lies in the act of filmmaking, she says. While she cites Home for the Holidays starring Robert Downey Jr as her favourite of the films she’s directed, she says her films follow her life, starting with Little Man Tate.
