Oyster #99: Lena Dunham Interview

“I think a lot of girls grow up — especially girls who don’t necessarily look like supermodels or feel like they conform to certain ideas about how a woman should look or behave — they grow up with a feeling of both worthiness and unworthiness, and there is a lot of tough, embarrassing stuff that comes up when you are trying to form relationships and understand who you are. So, those pains and anxieties, to me, are lessened when I express them and I get feedback from other people who say, “I understand. I’ve been there too.” That, to me, has always been the function of movies and television — to create this unifying experience — and it’s really comforting to see your own experience reflected back at you. That’s the power of media.”
