My improv definitely shows a different side of myself, which is more true to what my real humor is and what my real personality is, and I think - I guess 'wild' is a good word for it. I'm still sweet! But I won't let anyone walk all over me.
In rough times, pathfinders rely on work, friends, humor and prayer. They develop a support network.
To me, 'Scream' is a masterpiece on every level - the performances, the humor, the tone - it's just flawless.
My humor tends to be a little more edgy than is appropriate for 'Twilight,' although I got some in there. That was fun! There's just a tonal difference. For me, storytelling is storytelling. But, I do like writing for grown ups.
I have been definitely influenced more by Latin American writers than by any other type of writer. They are very close in terms of voice - their humor, their fatalism, their... well, that over-used term 'magical realism.'

I feel like I don't really have a sense of humor... I don't know if I could characterize it dark or light. I just - I do like humor.
I tried to go out for theater or theater arts, but I was too scared or too intimidated. But I had a lot of friends on the cross country team that had great senses of humor.
People often think that you have a sense of humor because you think that life is funny. Life isn't funny at all. It's appalling and tragic.
My intention when I make a film is very clear. I make it for a certain kind of people who have average intelligence - because I am also like that. I have an average sense of humor and an average brain.
