Every Director Should Take An Acting Class.

I'm Not A Painter Who's Saying, "i Want People To See My Work When I Die; It Will Be This And That." That's Not Satisfying To Me.

I Couldn't Be Happier To Not Be Acting. I Miss It, But I Don't Miss The Auditioning Or Trying To Get Work.

At The End Of The Day, I Just Want A Movie That's Great, That People Are Going To Love And Laugh At And Be Affected By, And Also Have An Emotional Journey.

Scripts Are A House Of Cards And You Can't Just Reach In The Middle And Pull Out The Middle Card Because The House Of Cards Will Fall Down. But At A Certain Point You Almost Have To Allow That House Of Cards To Get Knocked Down A Few Times Because You Need To Make It Sturdier. How Many Times Do You Hear, "no, That Doesn't Make Sense," Or "why Would This Happen?" That Was A Mistake. You Shouldn't Have Those Moments, Because The Moment You're Knocked Out Of The Story, Then You're Dead. And All You Can Go Is Moment To Moment,or Joke To Joke. And That's Gonna Wear People Out.

I Was A Standup Comedian, Which Is Kind Of Like Writing And Directing Yourself.
