Tell me about your recent movie, Tuesday. It's sort of an adult fairy tale. The story centers around a mother and a daughter, and the daughter's quite ill. And so it has a lot of...

Yeah, well, let's see. The first go-round, yes, I stood behind things, I carried boxes, et cetera. By the time I was pregnant the second time, nobody cared and we just kept, it was like it wasn't happening. We just sort of, I walked in, I was out to here and no one said anything. Yeah.

Yeah. She's in a position of power, but she's not quite there yet.

And so, you know, you think you've made it. No, you didn't. And nobody cares. Right. Isn't that amazing? So I thought that there was so much to be, so much material could be mined from that position.
