adult appreciate came center exchange five flavor high jewish love program school student teenager weeks
I came when I was in high school as part of a student exchange program with the Jewish Community Center in New Jersey, to Ramat Eliyahu. You come and volunteer for five weeks at a day camp. I was a teenager - I couldn't really appreciate it as much, and now I come back as an adult and I can really get the flavor of the city, and I love it.

I'd love to do more theater in New York City. And I'd love the chance to do a big movie with a great director -- you know, the Coen brothers or Woody Allen or Steven Spielberg, ... I'd love a shot at that.
building enormous fan fifth love ok people point season shows year
The fifth season isn't a year that's about building an enormous fan base. It's about going, OK these are our hard-core fans, let's make shows for them. Let's really point it at the people who love our show. I feel like this season, more than any, is really aimed at doing all the things we know that people who really love this show love about it.

bit came disney early feeling felt good happens maybe people putting reviews saw seeing time
Maybe that happens for the filmmakers, but I don't really feel that. I think they felt that before people started seeing the movie and Disney started to see what they had. And Disney saw some early reviews and that thing from Time came in and I think they were feeling a little bit of pressure. Then they started to see that they really had something good as you can see what they are putting into marketing.
aspect easy enjoy leader organizer requires stretch
For me that's the one that's the most challenging. And I say that not that the other two are easy by any stretch but the one that I feel like requires every aspect of myself. It requires me to be an actor, a writer, an organizer and a leader and I really enjoy it,

It was pretty much the last person we found - an independent financier who paid for the whole thing out of his pocket.

In fifth grade, we had to write a story and read it in front of the class. When I read mine out, the class were just belly laughing. And I remember being like, 'This is the coolest!' So I want to dedicate my life to trying to make people laugh. I can't imagine doing anything else.

I think I felt compelled in a way because if I hadn't written the part, I never would have been offered the part. There are at least 10 guys who would have been offered the part before me.
