You said, “I’m talking about more important things. Directing. Writing. Aren’t you into film? I don’t think you’re destined to be a backstage girl. I think you’ll wind up in charge of it all.” I can look back and see how that might have made a certain kind of kid fall in love with you. But I got something completely different from it. A new vision of myself, for one. A sense of possibility. Ultimately, a career.
