You brought it up.
That's why I have to be clear on what it is.
I think there's not going to be a franchise of this film, but who am I to say?
And anyway, she is someone who is...
She's really depressed.
Well, let me ask you something else then.
You just said you experienced postpartum depression after your second child.
Can you talk to me a little bit about what that looked like for you?
And I guess that must have been surprising, perhaps.
I'm a parent myself and also someone who's suffered from mental illness, PTSD and other things.
And so, you know, I was watching the film.
And again, I think what's really powerful about the film is that it can't speak to different things that people have experienced.
There's the universality of, of course, anyone who's been a parent and a mother, but also just anyone who's struggled with their mental health.
Have you, other than that time of postpartum depression, struggled with mental health issues, things like that that helped you sort of understand the character a little better?
The other thing that she sort of deals with is a loss of her creative self that is also really hard.
I mean, one of the things that I think as mothers you can feel often is just how your child seems to just leech all of the energy, all of the feeling of motivation out of you and you just give it all to them.
And as someone who is in a creative field as an actor, I mean, was that something that you kind of were able to connect with?
I do want to talk about the American Revolution and politics.
But I wanted to ask you one more thing about the film that struck me.
There's a lot of nudity in the film.
