I already feel a bit annoyed at myself for writing screenplays. It's a bit, I don't know, model-singer-dancer-actress that went to a posh school. There's something too weirdly predictable about it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I met Judd Apatow, he told me I should start writing screenplays. They'd be really bad at first, but the more I did it, the better I'd get.
I just really loved films and thought I should be writing screenplays.
Really, when I write a book I'm the only one I have to please. That's the beauty of writing a book instead of a screenplay.
It's hard writing screenplays.
I'm an actor, not a writer. I'd be pretty annoyed if the writers tried to come in and hang over my shoulder telling me how to act, so I don't go in and tell them how to write.
I didn't know anything about writing a screenplay, but somehow I ended up rewriting a screenplay.
It's really hard as a screenwriter, you feel like you have a vision and then you turn it over to a director and you have to let it go.
Even though I am in this weird position of being a semi-recognizable screenwriter, which isn't that common, at the same time, I'm not an actress. I'm pretty isolated.
If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.
Since I began making movies, I've always looked for screenwriters instead of going through the long and painful process of writing.
