Im really committed to keeping it real. The last thing in the world I want to do is make another stupid show about Nashville. Its a balance obviously. Its a ten oclock drama on ABC, so there is a certain mandate that we really include the soapy elements, which I'm fine with, as long as it is grounded completely in reality. There doesnt seem to be any reason why those things cant coexist.

At some point she just doesnt want to deal. Doesnt want to be bothered with these people who are coming in, who have paid no dues, who dont know the road theyre on, who dont know the long haul of it, who dont know what theyre in for. I see young actresses in Hollywood all the time and its like they think its never going to happen to them. They think theyre never going to be 35 and not getting the part.

The movie I've watched a million times is 'A Face in the Crowd,' directed by Elia Kazan, starring Andy Griffith and Patricia Neal. I first saw this movie, I guess I was in my early 20s. I'd never heard of it, and somebody told me about it, and I watched it and was just completely jaw-droppingly shocked at how current it was.

I think this happens to a lot of people, men and women, where you reach a point in your life and all of a sudden realize that things have changed. You suddenly realize that people are coming up behind you, that maybe somebody might want to replace you for less money.

I don't think any studio, it was a long shot at the time but I don't think any studio in a million years would make 'Thelma and Louise' right now. But there's so many other kinds of movies they won't make right now.

When you look around right now, Nashville is kind of going through another changing of guard; you're watching the Martina McBrides and the Faith Hills and all of them that have been the big stars for the last however many years, and the next generation is coming in: Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, those girls.

One of the magical things about Nashville is just how many incredibly talented people are here and the way they support each other.

I tried to get a baseball movie made a couple of years ago and I don't think it didn't happen because I was a woman, but because sports movie don't sell internationally.

I call myself a feminist, not a feminist filmmaker. If somebody asked me if I had a feminist sensibility it would be pretty hard to deny, but is it the theme of my work? Not necessarily. I'm interested in a lot of things.

Whenever I've seen shows or films set here, they just don't feel like the real Nashville to me.

One of the reasons I wanted to do a show about Nashville in Nashville was because when I lived here, the hardest thing to go out and hear was country music. Country was taking place inside the studio and it was an export.
