“For me, the movie was much more about the fact that whether it’s having lived enough years, having seen enough ups and downs, having had children and divorce. I’m at a point now in my life where I have sufficient life experience to bring to a role to make it really interesting for me.” Affleck said.
“Growing older and having had more intense and meaningful personal experiences have made acting more interesting for me and in turn made me drawn to the kinds of movies that are about people that are flawed.”
