Quote by Tamra Davis

“I wanted to make a film that wasn't just a biography. When you watched it, you actually felt that you watched a movie, that you had an emotional reaction. In order to do that, I felt that I had to really keep myself emotionally raw while working on the film. I had to feel myself crying, so the audience could be moved, too.”

That doesn't happen every day on set, but if it happens a couple of times in the course of making a film, you can consider yourself very lucky.”
