There's a large oak tree in the Newton Centre park playground that is legendary because only a few humans have hit it with a baseball from home plate, and B.J. Novak is among them. And I was there that day.
continue experience learning relationships
All relationships are a learning experience, even ones you continue to be in. If you don't see them as that, then that's a problem.
honest being-honest
Let's be honest, there are a lot of family movies; I like some of them, I don't like other ones.
credits waiter wednesday work
By being a waiter 100 percent, I think I was a lot like any other actor in New York. I had credits because I'd work lunches during the week, and then on a Wednesday would go be lucky enough to be in a movie like 'Kinsey.'
drive gotta home minutes stay weird
I always stay with my parents. When you come home, you gotta do that. It's weird to be like, 'Hey, I'm at a hotel. Drive 20 minutes to see me, and we'll have dinner.'

I had done one failed pilot. I remember, when it failed, I was like, 'Oh my God, how does someone survive this? That's it - that's the end of my career; it's over.'

I taught English in Costa Rica before I went to college. I'm not an especially outdoorsy guy, but sometimes I would spot wildlife while whitewater rafting or walking in the rainforest at 5 A.M.

Bizarrely, on movie sets, they don't really dig it when you look in the camera, which is a bizarre fact.
dad ideals instilled
I've always loved where my dad came from and the ideals that he instilled in me.
biggest knew people pretend surrounded talented
Probably the biggest challenge for me as a director was to not show how scared I was. I was surrounded by some of the most talented people in the industry, and I had to pretend I knew what I was doing.
front movies somebody
I've always loved those movies where somebody really wants something, and then the thing they want is right in front of them.
