THEY SAID WHAT? THE STARS’ BEST QUOTES
One of the great things about A Wrinkle in Time has been world creation, being able to play with big visual effects and all that stuff that so few women and directors of color get to do. For women and people of color, sci-fi takes on a much more potent space in our consciousness and imagination. It feels a lot more robust when I read the work of sci-fi or fantasy writers who are women, or women of color, because there is a muscularity to it that speaks to a present, a real situation, and it’s not just escapism for fun’s sake. It’s escapism for survival, for sanity —it’s imagining a world that’s not here.” — A Wrinkle in Time director Ava Duvernay in the February issue of Marie Claire
