I'd like to know what law is it that says that a woman is a better parent, simply by virtue of her sex. ↗

Tender Mercies is a very low-budget film, but it was a huge budget compared to anything I had done in Australia. My fee for Tender Mercies was something like five times all of my Australian films combined. ↗
