person who understands it all in the seeing some of your films they tell a story but sometimes it's hobson quite well the story is if you don't mind me saying is that deliberate do you want us to make our own interpretations of what you're doing or do you have a. particular message i think this story is most of the times it's by obvious from my perspective and but it's maybe not easy it's not an easy story and it makes you think and i really like to make people think and to go deeper and think about what they see and not just consume moving images. and you address a lot of serious subjects social issues for instance but also with a lot of humor and i wonder is that because you like to do that or is that she does that actually give you a strong meaning and i think humor a good sense of humor is really really important in telling also sad things tragic things in our society and through humor you can you can it's more powerful more emotional and you can reach people much better through you. i mean is that a constant with you always humor with it i've only seen things that have humor in them i

welcome back let's get back to wilfred frost in london who spoke earlier today with mellody hobson. i did, indeed. in fact, her first business tv interview since being named co-ceo of ariel investments this year in july and i began by asking her what she felt about these record market highs we've been seeing, despite a number of significant headwinds that remain. >> i think what we would say is that the fundamentals have been very strong and that's what we're seeing in the markets. the markets are showing us that the underlying strength of the u.s. economy, especially, does warrant this performance and we've been saying that for a long time. it feels as if we've been trying to wish ourselves into a bad market, just because it's gone on for so long >> u.s. equities then the best place to be? >> it has been, clearly. going forward, i'm a value investor so when you've had a run like this, you're always thinking, where in the world can you find value and clearly there are other parts of the world that haven't done as well but even in the u.s., which has done so well, there's always valu
