You said that that had made you realize that you would also be a director.

Mm-hmm.

And I was wondering, now sitting here with this big budget movie, you know, where you're at in that kind of evolution.

Well, let's talk about The Bride because I think it's an incredible film.

And it tells the story of the Bride of Frankenstein's monster.

And you have said that you were inspired by the 1930s movie original.

This is almost a century later.

Why are we still so interested in monsters and Frankenstein?

And what was it for you that seemed so enduring about that story?

This is, you know, quite a violent film.

It's visceral.

It's bloody.

I'm wondering what you were tapping into with that.

So fascinating.

I want to hear about that, but finish this.

Yeah, I'm thinking of a lot of directors off the top of my head whose signature is that kind of violence, right?

You have just articulated something which I think is very true about your work, which is this has been a persistent theme.

And I guess I want to understand why.

Well, like what part exactly?

Well, the idea of violence towards women.
