Olivia previously explained that being a mother greatly enhanced her ability to play her role in the flick- “I think anyone who becomes a parent, their heart expands, and you empathize on a different level. That's what I think was required to tell this story as it should have been told. I don't know if I would have been able to play Sarah without being a mother. It's actually kind of a gift of motherhood: You're in touch with different levels of emotions. I think it's all very connected.”
