You have to question a cinematic culture that preaches artistic expression, and yet would support a decision that is clearly a product of a patriarchy-dominant society, which tries to control how women are depicted on screen. The MPAA is okay supporting scenes that portray women in scenarios of sexual torture and violence for entertainment purposes, but they are trying to force us to look away from a scene that shows a woman in a sexual scenario, which is both complicit and complex. It's misogynistic in nature to try and control a woman's sexual presentation of self.

I loved growing up in Canada. It’s a great place to grow up, because - well, at least where I grew up -it’s very multicultural. There’s also good health care and a good education system.

If the character is true, the movie will fall into place. Or at least that's what you hope.

I know there are only so many characters I'll be able to play.

I love being Canadian. I think growing up in Canada gives you a world perspective that I certainly enjoy.

I think we just knew that we had a movie when Rachel walked in the room.

The thing that's so exciting when you're making a film is that it can be anything and there are no limitations on it.
