Halle Berry comments about her movie ‘Bruised' and how it relates to abuse and trauma:
"It viscerally impacts me. I’ve seen this. I grew up with a very abusive father who was alcoholic, very much like our Desi character. I know that man. That could have been my father or my uncles.
"But what I also know about these people is they’re not bad people. They’re good people with bad problems."
This is a brief excerpt from a Los Angeles Times podcast titled How Halle Berry channeled her childhood trauma in directorial debut, ‘Bruised.'
