When I was 16, I filmed an episode of 'Full House' where my family goes to Disney World. I remember putting on baggy overalls just to hide my stomach. When I watched it, I was pretty disappointed and bummed out looking at myself... I didn't feel good...
It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do. It's not unexpected for me to be in a comedy film anymore; I'm no longer the underdog in that world. Not that I'm great or good ...
I would direct TV. That's a little different. It's more of a contained world as a director. When you're doing a film you get on the rollercoaster, you put the safety bar down and then you're gone. And it's hard. It's hard, too, as a parent, I think, ...
I grew up in a town with no movie theater. TV was my only link to the outside world. Film wasn't such a big deal to me. It was TV. So much so, that when I meet TV stars now... Not my co-workers, but real TV stars, I get nervous. I freak out around th...
The lack of diversity, specifically in genre films and the superheroes our kids grow up watching and emulating, they can't really identify with. When you see the same thing, over and over again, and it seems not to speak of you and your heritage and ...
Film has to be reflecting the world that we live in, and that's all you want to be a part of. Actors inhabit the same planet as everyone else. It's a weird thing that happens when you're an actor because people hold you up because you somehow embody ...
I loved 'Junebug.' It was one of my favorite films, my favorite type of film.
I watch mostly independent films.
'Saawariya' was my debut film. It will always be the most special film.
I grew up on film scores and scores from films.
But the process of making a film is not glamorous. Certainly not my films.
I've never really liked horror films.
Short films don't go too far.
I've always loved animation and animated films.
On a film set everyone is very cool. Well, blase really.
For me, personally, the value of a film is not determined by a review, but the health of the film is.
The Opera was a very cold film, a hopeless and dark film, no hope, no love.
I don't feel that fear is a good incentive on a film set.
So, where's the Cannes Film Festival being held this year?
I don't think violence on film breeds violence in life. Violence in life breeds violence in films.
I love film, and I love seeing movies on film.
