I'm Always One Time Zone Behind Myself.

We Shot That In Morocco, And Got Out Of The Country At The Beginning Of July - And Two Months Later Came The Attack On Twin Towers. The Movie Was Then Released In December, So That Kind Of Atmosphere Is Not Something That Was Unfamiliar To Me.

I Deliberately Fly In And Out Of La For As Small A Time As Humanly Possible.

By The Time I Finished Comedy, I Was Really Burnt Out Of It. I Had Had Enough. I Don't Really Have A Strong Desire To Prove Myself In That Area, Or To Go Back To It In Any Great Way.

I Think You Need To Be Able To See A Lot Of Negative In Things In Order To Extract Material, So There's Probably Something To That. A Lot Of The People I Used To Work With Were Very, Very, Very Unfunny Offstage, So That's A Pretty Common Thing.

I'm Realistic About It. It's Been Quite Some Years Since I've Worked Full-time In That Area, So I No Longer Have Any Material That Bears Any Relevance To My Life Or The Audience. I'd Need To Take Probably A Year Off, Which I Wouldn't Be Prepared To Do, So It's A Romantic Ideal.
