Joss on SMG: 'I'm proud of what she's trying to do.'

[Apollo]

Article is mostly about Eliza as was for "Dollhouse" promotion, but also had this to say about SMG:

But what about the One True Slayer? "Sarah Michelle Gellar's made some really good choices," he says. "She's had some bad breaks. She goes with the independent, interesting young filmmakers and then they get slammed, like Southland Tales. I'm proud of what she's trying to do. It's hard."

This reminded me of how Joss and Sarah were getting along at Paleyfest. Nice to hear as it may hold some hope for future projects involving both of them (Sorry, Priscilla!).

Paleyfest and this does seem to suggest that if it was true that there was some friction between them towards the end of BtVS then time and an appreciation of what both of them are trying to do career wise has helped matters .

I doubt Joss would have a bad word to say about the likes of Sarah and co over their future projects. Mainly because they starred in a international tv hit, which was Joss's major break (okay Toy Story aside, but it wasn't all his work) as well. Plus they must have all gotten along as they worked together for seven seasons.
