I Think There's Great Stuff On Television.

I Was Also A Congressman. I Had Decided To Run For Office And Had Become A Congressman With Queen Latifah.

You Work With Every Actor Differently. It's Like If You're A Mother, If You Have Children, Some Children Need More Discipline. Other Children You Back Off Of A Little Bit And Let Them Be. It's The Same Way With Actors. Some Actors Need A Lot Of Hand Holding. Other Actors Like To Be Let Be And You Let Them Go. Some Actors Like To Be Nudged Just A Little Bit. Some Actors Don't Mind Line Readings.

People Always Said, "i Can't Believe You Made A Movie That Had No Script." Yeah, But Here's The Thing, If You've Got Actors Who Are Used To That, And That's What They Like To Do, They're All Good Improvisers And They're All People That Feel Comfortable Doing That, Then You Know, It's Not That Big Of A Deal. It's What You Do.

I Think I Have A Finely Tuned Sense Of Humor. I Think Just Being Around It And Growing Up In It... My Dad And Mel Brooks And Norman Lear. These Are The People I Grew Up Around.

Usually, I Have In Mind What I Want To Do. I Shoot Pretty Economically, So I'm Not Shooting Tons Of Stuff That I Could Change, All That Much. I'll Cut Something Or Add A Little Something Back, But Not Too Much. This Is Maybe The Producer Part Of Me, But I'm Always Worried About The Budget, So I Shoot What I Know I Need To Shoot For The Film.
