Margaret Atwood found life on the film set to be very different than her solitary life as a writer; the group dynamics, the realization that the director has Alzheimer’s and the lead actress, whose breasts were becoming increasingly larger, was pregnant. “‘You don’t have those problems when you’re a novelist. If the person’s breasts in the novel get bigger and bigger, it’s because you’ve made that happen.”” – The Globe and Mail (Canada)
