Women today are dealing with both their independence and also the fact that their lives are built around finding and satisfying the romantic models we grew up with.
— Jane Campion
To deny women directors, as I suspect is happening in the States, is to deny the feminine vision.
Women often postpone their lives, thinking that if they're not with a partner then it doesn't really count. They're still searching for their prince, in a way. And as much as we don't discuss that, because it's too embarrassing and too sad, I think it really does exist.
Actual violence has no attraction for me at all.
What I have learned from my work up to now, is to try to be open, but also protect myself by not letting the good and the evil get too much importance.
