Quote by Linda Cardellini

“People are drawn to watching things that are dramatic. And the tighter a relationship is, the more dramatic it can be. That's something family lends itself to.

It explores the darkest sense of family.”

When you compare the similarities and differences to other cultures, you start to learn about them and appreciate them.

“We all come from someplace. We didn't just get here by accident. Where we come from has got to be known, if you want to know where you are and who you are. You cannot understand the present without understanding the past, especially when it comes to family.”
