I am fiercely independent and I probably wouldn't be if it wasn't for the way in which I was brought up.
My grandmother had the most dramatic effect on my life because she set me in one direction, and I had to go back the other direction for my sanity, and for my ability to be a social human being.
Any film is about heroism: the triumph of good over evil. If you look back at my films, you will see that as a recurring theme.
