Topics: Sad Humor
I recently turned down a film that I didn't want my kids to see. Priorities shift. Sometimes I'm sad about that, but not enough to do anything about it.
I had to choose, I'd be so sad. They are flip sides of the same coin. I love both comedy and drama.
I failed to fulfill what should have been an interesting role. I couldn't take their formula and bring what I had, my humor, my ideas, and make it my own.
