Sundance is the only hand that feeds for women directors.
The women I cast have to embody all sorts of contradictions... I have to find the right woman to speak to other women.
Roman Polanski is one of my favorite filmmakers, and John Phillips one of my favorite songwriters. I had the honor to meet each of these men and was almost giddy to be blessed with the chance to tell each artist what his work meant has to me.
Maybe women sometimes wish that a man would come along and buy them.
