character writing play
The way I write is that I'll actually have a conversation out loud with myself. In a weird way, I just kind of get schizophrenic and play two characters.
writing mixtapes opinion
In my opinion, one of the biggest drawbacks about Sergio Leone films are the scores composed by Ennio Morricone. If [Leone] were as talented as I am, he would have made mixtapes for his movies instead of letting some schmuck write the soundtracks for him. But then if he were as talented as I am, he'd be Zach Braff. And have his own Grammy.
stars mean writing
I could see why someone would want to make a website about me, and my quotes. They are all gold. How many people have written, directed AND starred in their own movies. I just don't know why they would want to put words into my mouth, I mean I did write, direct AND star in a critically acclaimed movie.
new-year writing garden
People still make New Year's resolutions? Wow. I figured those were pointless once I perfected myself by directing, writing, and acting in Garden State. I guess it makes sense, though. It gives people a chance to hope that they can become as great as me someday.
stupid mean writing
Turning water to wine? I mean c'mon, that's stupid. They should have let me write the bible.
real writing ideas
I didn't necessarily have a total idea when I was writing the movie of where everything was going. I just wanted to have really realistic dialogue and write like people I knew talked. I tried to keep it very real.
writing biographies too-late
Somebody approached me about writing a biography on me, I told them they were too late.
jobs writing acting
Dude, writing, acting and directing are such easy jobs. But to do them all as awesomely as Zach Braff does, well that... that's something.
new-york writing years
I did theater for a few years while I was in New York, but it was tough having to perform scripts worse than what I knew I could write.
changed guy liked opinion saw short sitcom
They all saw my short films, and I think that changed their opinion of me as just a guy on a sitcom because they liked my movie.
kids dna tough
I've always wanted to have kids of my own, it's just tough finding a woman I wouldn't be wasting my DNA on.
character dual garden jersey meaning mind state
I think Jersey is a character (in the film), and there's a dual meaning with a state of mind - a garden is where things begin.
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,
