“When they’re in the kitchen, they’re dying ribbons with beetroot juice. I didn’t put that in, but it’s brilliant. They had to be making do. Again, a nice touch from my production designer, Sarah Greenwood. She´s my closest collaborator. We started in television together, and she’s just brilliant. She’s the one that comes up with ideas like the beetroot. When I don’t know what to do about a scene, she’ll come out with things like the beetroot.”

83% of American households have combined incomes under $100,000.
(But this points to something much more interesting, which is that almost all of us feel like we are middle class. Do you think that you’re middle class? I certainly do. I remember in high school, my European History teacher asked us to raise our hands if we considered ourselves middle class, and every single person in class raised his or her hand except for this one guy, who was the heir to a department store fortune. I laughed at the time, but in retrospect he was one of very few people who answered honestly. If you’re in that top 25%, meaning that you have two parents who work and who both earn more than $50,000 a year, you are much wealthier than most American families. Like, this guy comes off as a total brat, but most people in his position probably have the exact same experience.)
This is interesting.. I’ve never seen this with scholarships so much… but I never qualify for any financial aid because my family “makes too much money”. I find this stupid because 1. my parents income is counted towards my financial aid whether or not they’re helping me pay for college. It doesn’t matter if they are giving me absolutely no support, I still can’t have financial aid. 2. Just because your parents make a nice amount of money does not mean that they can afford to pay for you college completely or partially. (What if they have lots of kids?).
If so, you’re just shit outta luck. You’ve got the option to take out all kinds of student loans and pay them back for the next 15-20 years.
