"Timothy Hutton turns in one of the best male performances I’ve ever seen. And that family dynamic was so subtle in what could have been a really angsty movie. Everything from the way it was shot to the way it was acted. John Bailey was actually the DP on my movie that I directed (Brief Interviews with Hideous Men) and he was saying that when they shot the psychiatrist scenes he started out with the camera right over their shoulders, and then he moved the camera back slowly and changed the lighting, because he said that if you’d been going to therapy for months, then the lighting would be different every time of the same day. And I thought, “That’s insane that someone thought of that.” And then he moved the camera back 100 feet so that they were compressed on each other so it was a much more intimate scene. I was like, “Wait, wait, wait, this is insane!”"
