00:00Colleen wrote a book that had such a clear emotional journey that I completely understood why Lily made the decisions that she made.
00:08I understood why she loved the people that she loved, why she was hurt by the people she was hurt, and all of the decisions that she made.
00:14And it felt very, very, very personal.
00:17And, you know, I was fortunate to have a lot of authorship in the storytelling.
00:21And I think that, like, I think this movie feels first person.
00:25Like, I don't think it feels like you're an objective party watching and observing Lily.
00:31I feel like you're very much with Lily on this journey.
00:34And you feel what she feels as she's feeling it.
00:37You feel why she justifies certain things that she justifies, why she makes good decisions, why she makes bad decisions, why she makes gray decisions.
00:44And her victories feel like your victories when she has those moments.
00:48And her pain feels like your pain.
00:50And that was really, really important to us in the filmmaking and in the storytelling.
00:55And I think that, like, yeah, I think you feel that in every decision we made, you know, whether it be music or whether it be color or whether it be narrative,
01:08it was all to let you into Lily's feelings and her journey.
