Most Directors, I Discovered, Need To Be Convinced That The Screenplay They're Going To Direct Has Something To Do With Them. And This Is A Tricky Thing If You Write Screenplays Where Women Have Parts That Are Equal To Or Greater Than The Male Part. And I Thought, 'why Am I Out There Looking For Directors?'—because You Look At A List Of Directors, It's All Boys. It Certainly Was When I Started As A Screenwriter. So I Thought, 'i'm Just Gonna Become A Director And That'll Make It Easier.'
