Zoe R. Cassavetes - Proof - "Q: 'Was making [Broken English (2007)] a friends-and-family kind of thing?' Zoe Cassavetes: 'I didn't know Parker [Posey]. But I thought, Who's my dream cast? I always loved her work. Same with Drea [de Matteo] ... Why make a movie if you're not having fun, if you're not enjoying yourself? On the set, we were just girls, hanging out, chain-smoking", NY Metro, Jun. 25, '07

Parker Posey - Proof - quit - "What do think you have in common with Nora [her character in Broken English (2007)]? This is like the 'issues' movie of mine: the dysfunctional issues -- abandonment, feeling low self-esteem and self-worth, loneliness. This is a film about loneliness -- about the normal kind of feelings of being alone that we don't see that much in movies. She's got to drink. She's got to smoke. She has a sense of loneliness and of fear of being left alone. I was kind of amazed at how exaggerated something that had existed so long [inside me] was easy [to convey]. I think it's much harder to [do that]. I don't know what that says about me, but that was what I was kind of like going through in the movie. I could relate. I quit smoking. I felt like it was isolating me much further. I'd go outside and have a conversation with my cigarette", URChicago magazine, Feb. '07
