Quotation
SPOILER ALERT:
Maria: I read your script.
Young Filmmaker: ... I actually wrote it with you in mind.
Maria: As a mutant?
Filmmaker: I'm trying to consider genetics from a more human point of view.
Maria: When I was reading it, I imagined someone much younger...you were seeing me in movies that were made years ago, I...I've changed. ....Can I be frank? Maybe because I'm working with her, but...as I was reading it, I... I kept thinking about Jo-Ann.... she's smart, and talented. She's modern, just like your character.
Filmmaker: My character isn't modern, not in that way, anyway. She's... outside of time.
Maria: "Outside of time." I don't understand, it's too abstract for me, sorry.
Filmmaker: I don't like this era.
Maria: You're wrong, it's yours.
Filmmaker: Hey, man, I didn't choose it. And if my era is Jo-Ann Ellis and viral internet scandals, I think I'm entitled to feel unrelated, aren't I? I mean, it's nothing against her, I guess I just assumed you'd understand.
