television tvs grew
I grew up going to the movies, not watching them on television, so I'm still a bit resistant to TV as a medium.
home atmosphere different
I'm always struck when I go somewhere I've never been before, especially if it's in my home town, by just how different the atmosphere can be, and how disorienting it can be - especially if there's any kind of trouble.
hero home play
I wrote a play once called 'Lobby Hero,' which I thought turned out very well, but there's no final version of it. I published the one we produced, but there are seven other versions with different variations sitting in my desk at home.
assuming mets
I was nearly a teen-ager before I stopped assuming that everyone I met was Jewish.
writing ideas caught
I still haven't quite caught on to the idea of writing without dialogue. I like writing dialogue, and there's nothing wrong with dialogue in movies.
way actors want
I like to let the actors work the way they want to.
