“I love fairy tales.” — Sondra Locke Quote

I love fairy tales.

Working on location is ideal because you enter the character and the story. Shooting at a studio near home, there's a certain split. But on location, you forget the real world, and when you come back to reality, just going to the market can be traumatic.

I am a romantic. I want to cry when I throw out my Christmas tree, and I have a lot of feelings about magic and fantasy.

Since everything in my life collapsed in '89, I was just determined that I wouldn't cave in. I wouldn't just go away or become a basket case. I knew the value of me as a person.

I believe in elves and giants. I believe that fairy tales are nothing more than news reports of what once happened.

I was raised just on Grimm's fairy tales.

I loved fairy tales as a kid, so that's where my mind gravitates.

I liked Hans Christian Andersen because the tales were so dark and tragic.

I love fairy tales because I think that behind fairy tales, there is always a meaning.

Fairy tales are really violent, the original ones.
