Steve Guttenberg When I was nine, we'd take a bus to the seaside. Coming back, we'd take turns entertaining, singing songs and the like. I tried some stand-up comedy. I had a captive audience in that bus. Then I realized I wanted to do more than that. Jim Dale It's a lot of work and I also feel like I've done it. I miss comedy. And I also think that, from purely a logistical standpoint, that the day-to-day schedule on a comedy allows you to have a life, much more of a life, than on a drama. Adam Arkin I'll probably stick to comedy for the time being. I mean, a great piece of work is a great piece of work, and I'm up for good work anytime. But I do love comedy! Jenna Elfman I love sketch comedy. My real goal is to do something with Albert Brooks. That would be my fantasy. I stay up night and day thinking up stuff he might find funny. Illeana Douglas Comedy is so hard; it's so much harder than drama. The pacing of it, the energy of it. Josh Lucas It's a very tough time for the playwright. Broadway has become almost a musical comedy theme park with all these long-running shows. John Lithgow Especially while television I think is going through some growing pains or is in need of - I think current comedy is a bit, uh, not happening, you know? Jenna Elfman And if you have great writing, it's really easy, but if it's not so great and you have to work a little harder, I could tell where the work needed to be done but comedy is just fun. Matt LeBlanc You won't find me in a romantic comedy. Those movies don't speak to me. People don't come to talk to me about those scripts, because they probably think I'm this dark, twisted, miserable person. Naomi Watts Doing comedy for film is always a challenge because you are in the hands of the editor after the fact. I am hoping I can do some more soon, I enjoy doing comedy. Tim Roth Comedy is much more challenging, because you have to have the same level of belief but you have to make people laugh, and that's definitely a challenge. Jenna Elfman I'm in the mood for another Moonstruck experience, for another romantic comedy. Norman Jewison I can cry at the drop of the pin. But comedy is hard for me; it's the timing. Moira Kelly Especially with a comedy, you've got the clear cut goal of trying to make a scene funny. It's not like drama where you're trying to achieve some kind of emotion or trying to further the story along. You're trying to figure out what's the funniest way to do something. Luke Wilson If I do a poetry reading I want people to walk out and say they feel better for having been there - not because you've done a comedy performance but because you're talking about your father dying or having young children, things that touch your soul. Roger McGough Unless you're Jack Lemmon or Cary Grant, there are few guys who can do comedy and drama. Steve Guttenberg Clearly romantic comedy is my franchise genre, I don't mind saying that, it's true. I love doing them and hopefully always will do them. Meg Ryan Why would they have gone to the trouble to hire the best comedy writers in the business to write funny material for us to play straight, if the children in our audience were the only audience. Burt Ward You're at the top of your game if you do comedy. Hector Elizondo |
