The size of a studio film lets you see technology in a way that you wouldn't on an independent film, like the gadgets and the angles and all that.

It's all about the director for me; we have to click. It's a trust thing. I'll say I'm ready to let down my walls. I'll cry for you as long as you need. But you're going to have to hug me afterwards.
