Some people in the industry actually appreciate Sean's personality!
David Green, the director of Fire Birds:
“I can’t praise her too highly. She is ruthlessly honest with everyone around her to the point of being blunt. She tends not to filter her thoughts. Some people might see that as being unsubtle or tactless, but there’s an in-built honesty and integrity there. She doesn’t try to hide her emotions. She needs personal attention, involvement in every element of the production, and constant reinforcement of her belief in herself."
Director Joel Schumacher was warned against working with Young. But he enjoyed working with her:
”When I hired her for Cousins, I got a lot of phone calls from people saying I was crazy. Sean is an artist, and she doesn’t know how to monitor herself. She will pour out her emotional road map of the day to you"
Carl Reiner, Fatal Instinct director:
”I was apprehensive when I first met her and I put it right to her: ‘You’re perfect for the role, but are you going to drive me crazy?’ And then I found out it was all a fairy tale…. She’s a very gifted comedienne and actress.”
Sean on Mena Suvari, her co-star in Sugar and Spice:
"What’s nice about Mena is that it cheered her up greatly that I was in the movie. She asked me for autographs and she expressed to me her appreciation of my work."
