I was the kid who liked making other people laugh, so maybe the comedy came before the acting.

I'm not sure if I want to direct a film, but certainly, as an actress, I'm always thinking, 'Surely this must be my last film.'

There are only so many hilarious actors so when they cross-pollinate, people assume it's always the same actors and directors.

'Vicky Donor' proved that the audience was waiting for well-scripted funny films.

The last couple of roles I missed out on went to Jennifer Hudson, Jessica Biel and Olivia Wilde.

All of my favorite actresses are comedians at heart: Shirley MacLaine and Madeline Kahn, Diane Keaton and Debra Winger. And they are all amazing dramatic actresses, but everything they do is funny.

The last thing a director needs is an actress who feels an ownership towards a particular character.

Carol Burnett, who played Miss Hannigan in 'Annie', is as funny as it gets.

Some of the best dramatic actors have started in comedy.
