Culture Quote by Emma Corrin
“I met a producer at a festival last year, and she said: you will find as you get older that there might not be parts; there aren't always roles for women out there that are any good. I don't think I will ever stop feeling that way: we've all grown up in the culture, it infiltrates your subconscious.”
