Describing comic sensibility is near impossible. It's sort of an abstract silliness, that sometimes the joke isn't the star.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot of stars don't have a sense of humor.
The comic is the perception of the opposite; humor is the feeling of it.
Any comic is a very good actor. Look at Don Rickles. He is saying the same joke every night for 20 years and making it look like he just thought of it.
I'm a quite serious actor who doesn't mind being ridiculously comic.
I don't consider myself a comic but a performer. A comic tells bad jokes.
I thought they may have presumed too much knowledge of certain things for people who are not comedians. Like Montreal. A comic understands what it is and its importance, but someone else may not know about it.
If you're showing people where it's smooth sailing, where is the joke? If you go back to any movie, even a conventional movie, with any comedians, they're either not terribly intelligent or they're not doing something well.
It's hard for a comic to be joking when your lines can't be funny.
When you take a character seriously, there's more room for comedy because you're not aware of how absurd you are.
I'm not a great joke writer, which is odd for a comic to say, but I'm not.
