It is nice to do an independent film that can be a commercial hit. I think comedies do really well. I wish more independent films were comedies.
I often take clothes from my mom's closet, because she was a Simplicity pattern model in the 1950s and loves clothes. She's also a total pack rat.
I enjoy doing independent films more, only because there's more freedom. There's not as many cooks tampering with what you are trying to do.
God only knows what else is on the web about me.
I'm a huge poster collector.
It's nice to see a movie where people are actually succeeding.
