“The ways in which people are damaged are the ways in which they're strong. It's what makes people interesting - what they've overcome and how, and what they haven't and how that's become a good thing. Almost everyone's life is both a gorgeous story and a tragedy. I think being alive is really, really hard, and I'm constantly stunned and amazed by people who make it interesting and beautiful.” PeopleThinkingWayHardStoriesBeautifulLife IsStrongInterestingAliveStrengthHavensOvercomingTragedyGood ThingsAmazedGorgeousStunned Author:Sarah Polley

So we're seeing a lot of the same kinds of stories.” PeopleWritingKindLongFilmAbilityDirectProfessionMaking MoneyFinancing Author:Sarah Polley
