Sam also opened up about working with Aaron on two movies that she directed. “It’s really interesting,” she said. “When I directed Nowhere Boy, he wasn’t my husband. When I directed A Million Little Pieces he was. He gets very intense. It’s quite interesting depending on what character he’s playing.” Sam continued, “Nocturnal Animals for example, was very hard.
