I'm not playing a comedy. I want to be playing the truth of the moment, and then have the comedy come out.

If I were to work with my mom, I probably would not want her to play my mom. That would get too real.

I'll write and make chords with my voice sometimes if I don't have an instrument even though it takes a million times longer.

When you work on a movie, especially an independent movie, it's a lot of work to make it! It's not just our job as actors - so many people are working so hard, and even the littlest movie takes a lot of work.

I love to play music, and this is fun, and let's record this stuff in a way that we both like. That was exciting enough, so we just recorded it. There was no business in it until the very last minute, really. It was really as much of an extension of me writing the songs in my bedroom as it could possibly be.

I've been watching a lot of Joni Mitchell YouTube clips and I can't believe her transformation from this folk singer in Canada.

For me, writing is 75 percent procrastinating and 25 percent actually sitting down and working.
