“Im drawn to stories about ordinary people who get tangled up in an extraordinary event or idea or emotion. Im not saying I dont love films about super-people or super-doctors, but my preference is for stories about how we get through this life, what it is to be human, because Im always struggling with it myself.” PeopleHumansIdeasStoriesFilmEmotionStruggleEventsOrdinaryDoctorsExtraordinaryThis LifePreferenceOrdinary PeopleTangledLove Films Author:Sophie Okonedo
