I interview Shohreh Aghdashloo…
…at Alliance of Women Film Journalists. She’s starring in The Stoning of Soraya M., opening in the U.S. in limited release today, and which I’ll review shortly. And I’ll just say that I am seriously girl-crushing on Shohreh. She is totally awesome, and I want to be just like her when I grow up.
