What naturally stops you making the film is there is no more money in the budget. That's really what it is.

When I went to acting school, the kids that got the best grades were the kids that could cry on cue. But it didn't really translate into careers for any of them, because the external is the easy part.

Don't worry, and don't kick yourself forever. Just take the opportunities when they come.

Even though my father was a radio comedian, it wasn't cool to say, at a young age, 'I want to be a comedian.'

I've always been in the middle of making my own movies, so taking acting jobs that take me away from that has been impossible.

Once you sign on as an actor, you know, you don't go to the editing room, you don't see how they cut, you don't see how they score, you don't see how they cast the rest of the movie.
