It's tough to make funny films. And the truth is, with this process, especially if you write your own movie, then you're giving three years of your life to it.

Now it's somewhat easier for a woman to be a film producer or something like that if she wants, though it's not that easy. But to be any kind of successful woman took a lot of doing in the '30s, '40s, '50s, '60s... in the '70s it's getting simpler.
