Later in the confessional, the 61-year-old filmmaker got candid about her love for the movies.

She disclosed, “Movies are so important to me, growing up. So important as a touchstone to let me see myself, in other ways, other opportunities and other places.”

“Especially international films, I grew up with my mom taking me to foreign films mostly European films -- and neither of us have been out of the country so there’s France, there’s Italy, there’s Japan, there’s the Philippines, and we we became to embrace the world thru film,” she recalled in conclusion.
