I love my kids as individuals, not as a herd, and I do have a herd of children: I have seven kids.

You know, I don't really do that much looking inside me when I'm working on a project. Whatever I am becomes what that film is. But I change you change.

When I was very young, I remember my mother telling me about a friend of hers in Germany, a pianist who played a symphony that wasn't permitted, and the Germans came up on stage and broke every finger on her hands. I grew up with stories of Nazis breaking the fingers of Jews.
