More Quotes from Nick Cave:
Being of a certain age made things clearer. I'm 48, that's helped enormously, ... I have a much fuller understanding of relationships than I did when I was 20. A central thing about the relationship between Stanley and his wife Martha played by Emily Watson is that they don't have a kid. Arthur Burns, who they are trying to obliterate, has a family.
