We Got Some Devastating Reviews

There's Been An Amazing Backlash For The Last Decade In America: Political Correctness. In Many Ways, I Think That, While We've Been Remarkably Violent In Our Media, There's Been A Real Schizophrenia. In Private, On The Internet, And On Public-affairs Shows Or Talk Radio, We're Way More Explicit Than We've Ever Been. But Traditional Hollywood Has Been Much More Frightened Than It Ever Was In The '70s About Presenting Things That Could Be Perceived As Politically Incorrect.

I've Always Believed In Populating My Films With Characters Who We Like, Who We Have Some Warmth For, Who Have Warmth For Each Other, Who We Would Like To Hang Out With, Who We Emulate In One Way Or Another. It's Not That They All Get Along, Or That There Aren't Bad People Or People We Make Fun Of. But At The Core, There's A Kind Of Sweetness.

Everybody Says How Hard Comedy Is, But, When It Comes Time To Honor Things, Whether It's On A Weekly Critical Basis Or Whether It's Award Time, At That Time Of The Year, Comedy Is The Poor, Dumb Child Of Dramatic Work.

I'd Love To Do A Musical Actually. My Background Is In Music. I Have A Bachelors In Music. I Thought That I Was Going To Be A Composer, Long Ago When I First Started. So It Was Amazingly Fun To Do Those Two Routines In The Film.

In A Comedy It Helps Enhance Things That Were Already There.
