Many times I'll improvise it, which isn't done a lot in movies or commercials. But a lot of my commercials are improvised.
From Christopher Guest
You know when you're young, you have this unbelievable stupidity and arrogance and ignorance all mixed in?
I'm not really premeditative in any way at all. I come up with an idea, hopefully for a film, and then I'm lucky enough to do the film.
I went to Bard College for a year. And then, even though I didn't think I should give my blood to the theater, I did go to N.Y.U., which is where I met Michael McKean.
You can pick almost any field, and there's going to be weird people.
People ask me, 'What's your next film?' And I never know.
Comedies don't get nominated for Oscars. It doesn't happen. So when we set out to do a movie, it's not what we're thinking about.
I've been buying guitars since 1964, and you fool yourself into thinking it's the last one.
The minute the money is more, you lose your control, so then there's no point.
I'm fascinated by real-time behavior.
