Well, it's obviously a big problem. If you've ever seen the stage production you say, "How are they going to do that?" And I certainly felt that way until the script arrived. It was Rob's idea. Rob knew clearly how to do it. It's meant for the vaudeville stage. Where do you put the stage? His solution was to put the vaudeville stage in her mind, and it was just so smart and perfect and you see how seamless it is in the movie. It's very clear. It's not intrusive, but it makes you feel you're dealing with multi-layers of emotional reality, which you are. Because they're usually not telling the truth. You're seeing her emotional truth based on her needs, but not an objective truth. So I think it's really smart and fun to see that.
