This clip is an interview of Natalie Portman and she discusses her new film called Anywhere But Here. She is in a studio wearing a blue shirt with her hair down. It is a medium shot. She says because I think it's a really good reflection of parent child relationships and I think everyone obviously knows what Its like to be a child if not a parent and you know there's always the tensions when your moving into adulthood of you know being protected and sheltered by someone and than all of sudden wanting be on your own and take care of yourself and be independent and um so I think we have all gone through that and the movie is a bout that really.
