She worked enormously hard. You get to see, like, all of her many gifts." Lopez likewise acknowledged Affleck’s role in bringing the film to screens, telling Today, "If it wasn't for Ben, the movie wouldn't have gotten made, and I will always give him that credit." She also said that working on the project helped her through a difficult personal period, adding, "The movie is about escapism. It's about how movies and art save us in the hardest times of our lives."
