You have a wonderful child. Then, when he's thirteen, gremlins carry him away and leave in his place a stranger who gives you not a moment's peace. You have to hang in there, because two or three years later, the gremlins will return your child and he will be wonderful again.

I guess anyone would be nervous to give your life over to someone to make a film about it.

You give yourself permission to be the person you want to be, the artist you want to be, no matter what your circumstances!

I think people in the gay and straight worlds can get a sense of what it means to be an artist.
