A Quote by Cary Fukunaga

One of the most loved, one of the most skillful, one of the most intelligent, one of the most sensitive, charming actresses---and friends, in my life---but also in the later stages of her life, the UNICEF ambassador to the children of the world.

These types of films that are psychologically sort of dark at times, I find extremely exciting to do because there's always something to think about.
