That's really beautiful.
I am...
What moved me most about that story was just when she talked about being there with women who were older than her or more aged than her.
And I remember the first time I went to like a bathhouse.
And when I went and I was nude, I actually went at a time where there were only women 60 and up there.
And she marks that, you know.
And realizing that the continuum of womanhood, it's a journey we're on for life.
That really resonated with me.
And I remember the first time the actors in Liberation disrobed, we have a multi-generational cast.
And I myself grew up in a home where we are nude quite often.
Very often, all the way through my grandmother.
I can remember the folds of her body.
And it gives me pride to remember that, and I think it will allow me to walk into my more seasoned years with some pride and dignity.
So there's something about that in the story and something that I tried toβ
I think the greatest sign of love and respect that anyone can show a woman is giving her space and trust and time to tell her story.
without editing it, without trying to manipulate it, without trying to change it, and letting her tell the story that she has in the way she wants to.
And so that line, it means a lot to me.
I think it's such a sign of bestest brilliance.
But there's so many times I've experienced in my own life
Someone telling me how I should tell my own story, how I should be in the world, how I should walk in the world, how I should dress, how I should look, how I should sound, the way my very voice should sound.
