Relationships in general make people a bit nervous. It's about trust. Do I trust you enough to go there?

People have perhaps gotten to the point where for the most part movies are a just bit of escape.

It's funny how that comes up, because sometimes I'll write something and I'll think, I don't know if that's a film or a play, and then other things I feel very strongly about them just being plays - they feel very theatrical to me.

In a relationship you have to open yourself up.

But for me, it feels like a natural extension of what I've been doing: exploring relationships. Here you have two relationships and we can explore how difficult it is for people to be together.

You start as an audience member and create a world you're interested in, and then you move into the telling of those stories, bringing what has interested you as an audience member.

I'm more than open to hope, but I think men and women have a difficult time dealing with each other and often take the low road.
