Animation scripts tend to be much more descriptive and are lighter on dialogue.
From Douglas Wood
Dick Van Dyke was my first idol. He's an amazing physical comedian, like a classic clown, but also very smart and not afraid to show vulnerability.
I love all of Albert Brooks' work from 'Defending Your Life' back to his first film, 'Real Life', but am sorry that he seems to have lost his edge in his more recent work.
I used to love Woody Allen but feel he's become a hack as a director. 'Bullets Over Broadway' is the only film of his I've enjoyed in the last 10 years.
I was born in Chicago and grew up in the suburb of Evanston.
I was only in one play at Steppenwolf, in the early days.
I would rather read a poorly structured story that has fresh ideas than a tightly structured one with cliches.
I'm more concerned with getting them to find and strengthen their original voice as writers rather than imposing my own subjective tastes, judgements or sensibility on the project.
Right now, writing for me is most rewarding because I'm old enough now to have something to say, which probably wasn't always the case.
Robert Altman's 'Nashville' is my all-time favorite film because it covers all the bases - it's original, moving, and has something to say, but also funny and incredibly entertaining.
