[on 'Love is Strange'] I think that all of my previous films were about the nature of love and its destructive toll on an individual. But even more, they were films of self-discovery, about people who were trying to understand who they are and what they felt about that. This is a film that begins with two men who know who they are, and face a conflict together. How they face that conflict is the story of the film and also describes their love. I've always thought of it as an epic story told in a New York apartment because it's multi-generational. It's really about all these generations and how, at each stage of our life, we know such different things. Show less «
