"It centers around three different women. Annette Bening plays my mother, which I know seems like a stretch but she had me when she was 14 and she adopted me out, and she's searching for me and I'm looking for her too. And then there's a third character played by Kerry Washington who is trying to have a baby and can't and wants to adopt and we all sort of interrelate."

• "I figured it's only 10 days and a chance to get out of the New York winter and shoot in LA. It's a beautiful piece and I'll be working with Annette Bening playing my mother. In the script, she had me when she was 14 and gave me up for adoption. She is now looking for me. Annette is a wonderful actress and I love her work."
