Every Director Should Take An Acting Class.

A Lot Of Comedies Fall Apart Because They Just Go From Joke To Joke, And The Characters Are All Sort Of Being Crazy Off On Their Own.

I Think Things Go Wrong When There's Not A Very Specific Plan And Specific Emotional Roadmap. You Need To Know What A Scene Needs To Get Across, And What Story Point That Needs To Be Advanced, Whether It's Discovering Someone For The First Time Or Whether It's Seeing A Relationship Get Strained. What I Do As A Director Is Really Create A Safe Environment That Everyone Can Feel Very Comfortable In And Experiment Within So That They Don't Hold Back Anything.

I Love Funny People, And When I'm With Funny People, Or People Who Are Amusing In Their Weirdness, I Love It. Because That To Me Is Funny, As Opposed To Someone Who Stops And Says, 'hey Let Me Tell You A Joke.'

What You Never Want To Do Is Have A Story That Doesn't Track Emotionally, Because Then You're Going Joke To Joke And You're Going To Fatigue The Audience. The Only Thing That's Going To String Them To The Next Joke Is How Successful The Previous Joke Is.

I'm Extremely, Extremely Lucky To Be Who I Am And Do What I Do And Work With The People I Work With. Even Though I Can Always Find Something To Complain About, I Find It Very Hard To Complain.
