“I mean, is 'fat' really the worst thing a human being can be? Is 'fat' worse than 'vindictive', 'jealous', 'shallow', 'vain', 'boring' or 'cruel'? Not to me I'd rather [my daughters] were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny - a thousand things, before 'thin'.

“It was a dagger in the haughty father's heart, an arrow in his brain, to see how the flesh and blood he could not disown clung to this obscure stranger, and he sitting by. Not that he cared to whom his daughter turned, or from whom turned away. The swift sharp agony struck through him, as he thought of what his son might do.” HeartCharacterMightFatherInterestingBrainBloodSonDaughterSittingStrangerFleshAgonyObscureArrowsFlesh And BloodDaggersInteresting CharactersHaughty Book:Dombey and Son ...

“You need to try to find a way to humanize your villains. Genuine villains, in real life, still have mothers and daughters and sisters, and they fall in love. They don't walk around with a big sign saying, "Bad guy," on their head. They think they're good guys. If you can play that, I think it makes it more interesting.” IfsThinkingWayNeedsTryingStillsRealPlayBigsMotherGuyFallWalksInterestingDaughterFalling In LoveReal LifeGenuineVillainBad GuysGood GuyMother And DaughterSign Sayings Author:Mark Strong

“The fame thing is interesting because I never wanted to be famous, and I never dreamt I would be famous....You know I didn't think they'd rake through my bins, I didn't expect to be photographed on the beach through long lens. I never dreamt it would impact my daughter's life negatively, which at times it has. It would be churlish to say there's nothing good about being famous; to have a total stranger walk up to you as you're walking around Safeways, and say a number of nice things that they might say about your work.” ThinkingKnowsLongMightWould BeWantedWalksInterestingNumbersNiceWalkingFameDaughterImpactStrangerBeachMy DaughterLensesUp To YouNice ThingsBeing FamousRakes Author:J.

“I think the relationship between mother and daughter is so interesting, even in a semi-normal family. Emily Thorne/Amanda Clarke's family relationship is going to be so interesting to explore. It is going to give me so many places to go. Obviously, it has been said that she is not the most stable of characters. What is interesting about that, when you think about mental health, is that young women will often come into those problems and difficulties in their 20's, so it is very possible that this will start to affect her psyche.” ThinkingGivingHas BeensSaidCharacterProblemYoungMotherInterestingNormalDaughterGive MeDifficultyMental HealthStableYoung WomenEmilyMother And DaughterPlaces To GoAmandaFamily RelationshipNormal Family Author:Emily VanCamp

“For me, it was always clear that Toni Erdmann is more a film about what globalization, capitalism, does with private relationships much more than making a "political" film. It's more interesting to raise questions, because I don't feel in a position to "make a statement" with the film. Toni Erdmann comes from a completely different generation then his daughter, it's the post-war generation, they were very politically engaged. They raised their children with a lot of human worldviews, sent them out in the world believing in a world without borders.” WorldBelieveChildrenDifferentFilmPoliticalInterestingDaughterCapitalismGlobalizationWorldview Author:Maren Ade
