What We Talk About When We Talk About Love
Actress/producer Tilda Swinton on her postmodern romantic epic, I Am Love
And the affair takes off in a direction quite different from Visconti, as the coming out of daughter Elisabetta (Alba Rohrwacher) plays an important role in the mother's self-discovery. "What saves her, in a way, is her daughter. It's the gay daughter who leads her mother to her liberation."
It might be said that Swinton was born liberated. Set apart from her own very traditional family, she relishes the term class traitor as a way to describe herself. Yet, she's a traitor with much practice playing matriarchs.

"You could have an American Mother box set with me by now. There's The Deep End, Thumbsucker this now this new one, We Need to Talk About Kevin. But you could have I Am Love in there as well. But maybe you should also include Young Adam, and The War Zone. You could call it Tilda Swinton: The Mother Lode!"
