“When the police found Brynn that fall, Adam had no explanation. Shattered wrists, sunken face, and a broken leg – it was never clear what had happened. Bailey found her at the bottom of the stairs and called for help. Adam sat in the parlor, tipping cigarillo ash into the glass tray. Though the charges for assault were dismissed due to lack of evidence, Bailey couldn’t escape her suspicions, and by Christmas, she moved away. The divorce papers arrived in the mailbox, crinkled and brief. Adam pulled them from the box and walked toward the house. Looking up, he was sure he saw something falling from the sky.”

“Immortals is without doubt the best-looking awful movie you will ever see. Eiko Ishioka's costume designs alone deserve an Oscar nomination.

She added: "I guess that's what we deserve for using free tickets we got at a Blackhawks game.”

“All my cuts are always about three hours, at the start, mainly because any scene in the movie that's 90 seconds, I probably shot a five-minute version of. If you just extrapolate that through the whole movie, I have a very long version of every scene, usually because, if there's one funny joke, I'll shoot five because I don't know if the one I like is going to work. I'll get back-ups because my biggest fear is to be in previews, testing the movie, and a joke doesn't work, but I have no way to fix it because I have no other line.”
