Lena Dunham of Girls talks to Tracy Smith. Hannah Horvath, an aspiring writer in New York City. Girls is a show about everything. 20 somethings trying to make it in New York City. The show, at times, can be vulgar. Unique but alienating. 20 something angst. "Tiny Furniture." The "girls" are children of famous people (e.g., Mamet, Williams). Show depicts awkward interactions with parents. OCD wears a groove in your brain. In times of stress, return to certain ways of thinking. Dunham is now 26; do you feel envy from other people?
