When my career first began, I didn't have children - so there's a whole lot of difference in the way I choose roles now. Not just films for my children, but how long I'm going to be away, and is Dad going to be home while I'm gone. That sort-of factor plays a part. ↗

If I didn't have my films as an outlet for all the different sides of me, I would probably be locked up. ↗
