For steadier, values-driven lines, see our Good quotes.

I feel like directing is more about who the individual is rather than if they're a man or a woman. It's kind of hard to generalize and group all of us female filmmakers into one group, like we're all going provide you with the same thing, because we're not. We're all individuals.

'Marriage' was not that big a deal, to be honest!
