I'm basically a writer, it's who I am. I direct and I like theatre directing very much. But I've done 17 movies, they don't say 'Let's get Garry, he'll make a helicopter shot,' they say 'Get Garry, he'll fix the script.'

I wasn't really that good at being a musician. And then I tried being a standup. I was an actor. I was a photographer. I tried everything.
