Quote
1
We were big Saturday Night Live and Eddie Murphy fans.
2
I loved the idea of the Nerd as Hero, which Ghost World also had.
3
I'm a huge poster collector.
4
I met Patricia Neal, John Houseman. But I loved my grandfather because he was this kind, talented man.
5
I love sketch comedy. My real goal is to do something with Albert Brooks. That would be my fantasy. I stay up night and day thinking up stuff he might find funny.
6
I had an obsession that I was male characters from movies.
7
I love anything to do with ventriloquism and magic.
8
I wore a lot of vintage clothing. I dressed like a reporter, with a little card in my hat. I had these fantasies of who I wanted to be, so I'd dress like an explorer, a cowboy. I dressed up like Elton John a lot too. That was another period.
9
I'm a big fan of Albert Brooks, Nichols and May. I'd like to follow in their footsteps and do comedy films.
