My original inspiration was my mom: a few years after the death of my dad she started dating one my teachers!
In the original draft I was 27 and Peter was 55 in the script. That's not the same as a guy in his 40s and a dad in the end of his 70s. It's a different point in both our lives.

It is conventional to call 'monster' any blending of dissonant elements. I call 'monster' every original inexhaustible beauty.
