Details
Director Allyn's take on Heard
While speaking about Heard's personality, Allyn said, "I'm so happy that Amber went through something so awful and it didn't change her as a person. She's still the shining light that we explained earlier and to go through something that terrible and be able to come out the other side and be whole, well I can't imagine it."
Journey
Calvani lauded Heard's journey
Calvani spoke about Heard in very high regard. He said, "No matter what side you're on, no matter what you believe or which social media you plug into or whatever your hashtags are, you have to give credit for the incredible journey this woman has been through and she can teach us all a couple of things as far as resilience and courage."
