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 love Valentine's Day! I love it I love it I love it. I like having doors opened for me. My favorite romantic comedy is 'When Harry Met Sally.'
I've always been sort of addicted to genre-jumping. I've never been in the mood to do the same thing I did last time. Hence me going from 'Big Love' to romantic comedy to period film... I can't sit still.
I don't know about the romantic comedy route although never say never.
Even actresses that you really admire like Reese Witherspoon you think 'Another romantic comedy?' You see her in something like 'Walk the Line' and think 'God you're so great!' And then you think 'Why is she doing these stupid romantic comedies?' But of course it's for money and status.
The dark comedies tend to be in a non-releasable area. There can be romantic comedies. There can be dramas. But there's no 'dark comedy' inbox for the advertising.
The only thing I would unequivocally say is that I have never had any interest in romantic comedy I just couldn't do it. I think I'd be terrible.
My new movie Fools Rush In is a romantic comedy and the girl I play in that is very warm very sweet.
What I'd really like to write is a romantic comedy. This is my favorite kind of movie. I feel almost embarrassed revealing this because the genre has been so degraded in the past twenty years that saying you like romantic comedies is essentially an admission of mild stupidity.
