I'm Too Big A Fan Of Rhythm

If Someone Else Made 'up In The Air' Or 'thank You For Smoking' Or 'juno,' I Would Have Wanted To Rip Their Head Off. I Need That Same Sort Of Passion For Every Project I Take On.

Being The Son Of A Filmmaker, You Are Aware Of A Career As A Director. You Don't Think Of It As Just Movies, But As A Life.

I Think Romance Is A Tool, Comedy Is A Tool And Drama Is A Tool. I Really Just Want To Tell Stories That Challenge The Viewer, Move People, Make You Laugh, Perhaps Push An Idea About Being Open-minded But Never Settle On A Genre Or An Opinion. I Hate Genre. I Like Movies That Are Original In Their Approach.

I Really Enjoy Theater. I Just Went To See 'death Of A Salesman,' And It Knocked Me On My Ass.

From The Onset Of The 'live-read' Series, We Wanted To Hit All The Major Writers And Woody Allen Is Simply One Of The Greatest Screenwriters Of All Time. He Has Ability To Match Pathos And Comedy And Drama And Then Turn It All On A Dime. If You're Going To Make A Series Based On Dialogue, You Can't Find Much Better Than Woody Allen.
