My dad always said that hard work beats talent when talent doesnt work hard enough.
I was addicted to the original 'Star Trek' when I was growing up, because of my dad. We grew up in St. Helens, Oregon and we weren't allowed to watch a lot of TV.
I grew up watching science fiction with my dad. It was kind of our little secret. It was our bonding time as father and daughter.
The first movie my dad ever showed me was Predator - I was five. And I think the second one was Jaws. I've has this understanding of fiction for a very, very long time but I've also had this thing where I've idolized the male action heroes because that's what I watched with my dad.
