These stories are usually tearjerkers and there's no need for it.
There are a lot of laughs in this movie, but it's not just about the laughs. It's really about the story, about a guy who finds his soul and realizes what's truly important.
Nine out of 10 times these guys will hit it-they'll be on something incredibly funny, but one out of 10, two out of 10, they'll fall flat on their faces. That's what makes them great actors: they take those chances, they don't play it safe.
We've had no problems with the actors, but we keep a really loose set.
Just in time for the Sox to make another run.
Her idea of a perfect date is playing 36 holes, then going on to a ball game.
It's one of those things where the timing is never right. And there are a lot of people interested in the parts.
I wanted this movie out there. It's very funny, but I also saw the potential for changing people's perceptions of people with intellectual disabilities.
Absolutely. You're not laughing at them. You're really laughing with them. There are a lot of jokes in this movie, and they're in on them all.
Acting is easy. Mainly because we have a lot of roles-and they're like our friends and they want to be in movies, so we put them in.
I love Philip Roth, I love all his stuff.
There's two lines. There's a line that the critics will tell you is there. And then there's the real line. And the real line is what we go towards. We never cross that line. Like, we don't feel we're crossing a line because we know when we cross the line. That's when they don't laugh, because the audience won't laugh if it's truly mean-spirited.
To the critics: You always complain that Hollywood never gives you new stuff, and then when you get it, you flip out. Lighten up.
Movie 43 is about the hardest R Rated comedy ever.
