Sarah Polley Opens Up About What Really Matters to Her


Sarah Polley opens up in a rare extended interview on The Filmmakers. »Subscribe to CBC Arts to watch more videos: http://bit.ly/CBCArtsSubscribe "I think there's an assumption in our society that everyone secretly wants to be famous, and if they don't want to be famous, they're lying," Polley says in the clip, a highlight of a longer discussion about fame. "And certainly among my friends in high school, that was the deal. I definitely grew up with a group of people who really wanted to be in the media or in film. So I was like a big bullshit artist because obviously that's what I wanted." Eventually, though, Polley came to realize that for some people, it's their worst nightmare to have that kind of attention — and that she might be one of them. So she altered her idea of what she really wanted.
