She has managed to turn her movie teams into cozy families as well: during the filming of Ever After, in an isolated village in France, she endeared herself to the crew by supplementing the set's meager craft-services table with fresh fruits and sandwiches. A strict vegetarian who objects to harming animals, Barrymore also believes in the spiritual power of auras, karma, energy fields and the like. Maybe...
