“I mean you can go wherever you want with it really. No matter what story you're telling you're always representing some reality. You are always representing human beings, their fears, their shortcomings, their braveries, their doubts, their loves, their abilities, their brilliance and those things inevitably lead to bigger political systems, foreign policy and crime and religion. It's an action film. We are not taking a stance about big government.”
![“Ultimately, the people [who] are going to help you make your film are the people who believe in you and believe in the story. And as long as you stick to your guns, hopefully what you come out with will be what you imagined.” quote by Dee Rees](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/f3b/dee-rees-4528_believe_ultimately-the-people-who-are-going-to-h_1037436.jpg)
