Rehearsals and screening rooms are often unreliable because they can't provide the chemistry between an audience and what appears on the stage or screen.

Everyone should see Hollywood once, I think, through the eyes of a teenage girl who has just passed a screen test.

I'm really curious to see first the 10 days of previews, and the chemistry of the stage and the audience. Do they embrace the story and the actors and all the special effects? I want to see how they respond to the totality. If it doesn't work, we will tweak and fine-tune and address moments of weakness. If anything, that's the area we will be in.

When you have spent an important part of your life playing Let's Pretend, it's often easy to see symbolism where none exists.

Jealousy is, I think, the worst of all faults because it makes a victim of both parties.

A comic, you have to be looking down at him. My favorite rooms, the audience is above the stage, stadium-style.
