Women are better than men.
From Ryan Gosling
When my mother and I walked to the grocery store, men would circle the block in cars. It was very, very scary, especially as a young boy. Very predatory - a hunt.
My home life now is mostly women. They are better than us. They make me better.
What's nice with comedy is that you know it's working if it's funny.
I did what I had to do to get where I wanted to go. I had unearned confidence.
I've always liked women more. I was brought up by my mother and older sister. I found my way into dance class.
People don't step outside themselves and make the film they want to make, because they're afraid of the reaction. But once you get that reaction and have lived through it, there's nothing they can do to get you down.
It was a strange experience, making a love story and not getting along with your co-star in any way.
I'm from Canada, and I think, like everyone growing up anywhere else in the world, you are very aware of America - it sort of looms large in its legend, and so did Detroit.
I had a lot of romanticised ideas of what Detroit was like, but I didn't get there until I was 30, and it was very different than I had imagined it.
