Trees Lounge is based on my own life. Both my parents like the movie. My father, of course, thinks it's a masterpiece.
It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.
My parents were political, so it's definitely in my bones. Wherever I am, I always seem to get involved with politics. I think, once it's in your bloodstream, it's always there. I love it.

I have a great relationship with my parents. I have not been on lithium.
