Episode quotes:
“I think it would have clouded my worldview, in terms of how I would continue to be raised in this bubble where everything is sorted for you.”
“Going to the university, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a great or a bad university, gives you a great understanding of how the film industry actually works.”
“You just need to find the teachers that are really good, have some experience and absorb it from them as much as you can. Ask them questions and just spend time with them.”
“But on set you've got so many people around you and you work with them every day. Everyone needs to be easy to work with and you'd want to hire, you'd want someone you know and trust, rather than just a random person.”
“If you think about it, anything that you want in life can be figured out. You can figure out how to get it.”
