In mainstream romantic comedies I'm usually tearing my hair out. It's just a devastatingly difficult genre for me.

Dinner is a great first date. Don't believe that stuff about girls not wanting to eat on a first date - sharing a romantic meal is so sexy.

I'm better with my hands and I always loved the slightly romantic idea of starting with bits of wood and being able to create something to sit on to eat from to store your clothes in.

My goal on my bucket list is to write a romantic comedy movie.

If I were given a choice between two films and one was dark and explored depraved troubled or sick aspects of our culture I would always opt for that over the next romantic comedy.

I'm not the most romantic guy although I do try.

The whole romantic part of my life was a wipeout. I didn't even own a belt.

I think opera has gained a kind of glamorous appeal. It's a live performance that aligns all of the arts and when it is represented in the media in film in particular it is presented as something that is really a special event whether it's a great date or something that's just hugely romantic.

I have a great wife and it's very easy to be romantic because it makes her happy and then my life is so much better when she's happy.

I don't think that digital photography is romantic yet. It's not sympathetic the way that film is.
