Nashville is the place where I first realized how impossible it is to look at someone and know what is inside them, what special something they possess.
From Callie Khouri
I think of feminism as more of a political ideology.
If the same energy went into marketing movies to women as they do on the other demographics we might see more of a spike.
Chick flick is not a term used to praise a movie. Nobody says 'it's a great chick flick.' It's a way of being derisive. I'm not clear why it's ok to do it.
I call myself a feminist, not a feminist filmmaker. If somebody asked me if I had a feminist sensibility it would be pretty hard to deny, but is it the theme of my work? Not necessarily. I'm interested in a lot of things.
I tried to get a baseball movie made a couple of years ago and I don't think it didn't happen because I was a woman, but because sports movie don't sell internationally.
