I don't know.
I just loved this whole section.
She talked about how making things and helping them with their films and then helping them with her films reminded her mother of like Soho in the 1970s, when someone fascinating was always doing something fascinating and all you had to do was get out of bed to find it.
And like, it's like that time when you're just creative and you're trying to do stuff.
And I don't know, what did you think of this like section?
No, it was like an indie sleaze time capsule, like the way she describes how all the men dress like grandpas.
And I was a film programmer at the National Museum of the American Indian, and we programmed like a bunch of films, programmed some like momocore films.
And I had like an internship with Barry Jenkins.
And so like there was some kind of cross-pollination here in a way that like.
It just reminded you of the time.
I don't know.
It feels weird to be nostalgic for something that doesn't feel like it was so far away.
But I agree.
It was an exciting time where people would take money from editing DVD extras and like make a feature in the summer.
And then suddenly they were making movies.
And it was just such like a beautiful kind of optimistic time.
And she really, her writing just like really captures, I feel like, that moment.
And so...
It's in that sort of creative soup that she writes her first feature, Tiny Furniture.
She writes it in like a few days, she said, which is just incredible.
