Your relationship with your husband should be an important part of your private life, but publicly you should be able to define yourself.

We live in a real world. Come back to it.

I tend to lean toward strong female stories. I want to make things that don't already exist out there.

A movie about a weak, vulnerable woman can be feminist if it shows a real person that we can empathize with.

I grew up in the classic American-Jewish suburbia, which has a whole different sense of what it means to be Jewish than anywhere else in the world.

I don't want to sound superficial, but when I go see a movie myself, I'd rather look at Tom Cruise than some shmo with a beer belly

Committing yourself to one person is sacred.
