Tig Notaro Interview Instant Family
25Tig Notaro Interview Instant Family
The children in Instant Family are absolutely terrifying—screaming, crying, lying, cursing—and these are the good ones. How any parent survives the eighteen-plus years it takes to rear a child is a miracle in and of itself. And yet somehow, maybe, it’s all worth it. There are a lot of those discussions in Instant Family between new adopted-parents Ellie and Pete (Rose Byrne and Mark Wahlberg), as well as about how a family doesn’t just instantaneously come together. It’s something formed through trial and error, love not at first sight but earned through hard-work and care. The screaming, crying, lying, and cursing all becomes worth the price of admission, when a child looks up at you wide-eyed and finally calls you "Mom" or "Dad."
In the following interview with Tig Notaro, she discusses terrorizing her own parents as a child, how she’s now going to keep her own children in line, and what parenting lessons she took away from Instant Family. For the full interview, watch above.
