Naomi Watts on The International and Motherhood

Naomi Watts stars as a Manhattan Assistant District Attorney who's drawn into the investigation of a corrupt bank in The International, a political thriller co-starring Clive Owen and directed by Tom Tykwer (Perfume). All you have to do is listen to the news and it's apparent The International is a timely tale, and Watts believes there are lessons to be learned from the film.

"I mean, you just have no idea. Banks are very powerful things and they talk you into doing all kinds of things with your money despite what you're really capable of doing with your money and what you should be, and that's how people get so hideously in debt," said Watts at The International's LA press day. "And this particular bank, it's so ugly and grim and there's so many people involved it just doesn't stop. And it's impossible to expose them. And that's what I loved about the film, is that these two characters are standing up and going against something, despite their odds. And the very people that should be policing them are fueling it, the whole system." Read More...
