Once you're done with the film, it's almost like empty nest syndrome: your kid has moved out of the house.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is a certain moment in the film when the son is in the nursing home and he goes to the television and turns it off because he sees himself in the image.
Doing a kid's movie is fun when you have kids. You don't want to do kids' movies if you don't have kids. When you have kids, things change in your life.
My children can't see many of the films that I've been in because I'm always either dying or taking my clothes off.
Any time you make a movie where you're living in a certain head space for an extended period of time, it's tough not to take a little piece home with you.
When you start acting as a child, you grow up ahead of your movies.
Hopefully this movie will help people understand that if a child is never given the tools to know how to love others and love and respect themselves, this is what happens.
At a certain point in one's career, it's really wonderful when your child turns around and goes, 'Oh my God, Mommy, you have to be in that film. My friends are going to die.'
I've made a lot of movies with kids in them. I don't know why that is, but it's something I've noticed.
I look at my movies; I call my movies 'the kid.' It's like I'm giving birth. I'm in the cocoon, you know?
I've never left them to go do a film. No, we all go together. I could never leave them. My kids are my whole world.
