You can't guarantee that you'll make a great movie, but you can make a greater effort than I made at trying to see that the basics are there.

Drama is more focused and it reveals itself to you, whereas comedy is just right there, when you first read it.

I think everybody has a public persona. We all present ourselves.

When you're 20 you can put a ton of old-age prosthetics on and be an old guy, but when you're 70 you can't play a 20-year-old.

The alternative scene, for a couple years now, has been taken seriously and that's a cool thing. I don't think it's exploded or anything, but I think it's pretty cool that it still exists, it's still affecting people.

Being comedic is a skill, because there is a fine line where the context is important. And being dramatic is just being honest and real in that moment.

I think that cable TV is a great venue to do something interesting.
