I Learned Directing By Editing

It's Definitely Easier For A Woman To Do A Romantic Comedy Than A War Movie. It's Assumed A Woman Doesn't Have A Sense Of What Action Is.

I'm Not Going To Pursue It The Way That Actors Pursue It Which Means Going To All Of The Auditions And Getting A Job And All That Stuff, Because I Don't Really Need To Get A Job Because I Have A Job As A Writer/director. That's How I Make My Living Mostly Now. So I Don't Need To Make A Living As An Actress.

I Love Making Movies. I Love Writing. I Love Acting. I Love It, And I Feel Really Blessed To Be Able To Actually Make A Living With Something I Love Doing.

Basically, Editing Is Done In Rehearsal And In The Writing Process And In The Acting, So It's Very, Very Tricky, Very, Very Tricky.

I've Never Had Help From Anyone, Ever. I've Never Had This Great Director Who Saw Themselves In Me, Because I'm A French Woman In Hollywood. Who Could Identify With Me As A Successful Director In Hollywood? Nobody. And The Few People Who Could Have Been Mentors, Instead They Just Stole My Ideas.
