“Watching [women] become friends and then essentially become family, that’s the kind of thing I root for when I watch a movie,” Melissa told Bust magazine. “I want to see that. I love to show women and girls uniting. I love showing that because I think so often in movies, you see women just fighting and not liking each other. That’s not real life. That’s not the norm.”
