I love comedy. It's where my heart is.
You couldn't hope to make a drama and have people rewriting on the day and having the actors making suggestions, "Wouldn't it be funny if my character did this?" "No. You're the actor. I'll tell you what to do."
As a director, you always want things to look good. You're always trying to make things look tidy. That's what we're all trained to do.
