I can't not have something attached to like what actually happens in real life. like i can't do a romantic comedy without there being something where like, in the case of annie hathaway's character, her character ends up having parkinson's, you know? to me, i feel like that's love, you know? like to me. so every movie has to have that kind of sense of that.

"i'm sure she has other commitments. no, we've got much better choices." a better choice than janine hathaway? not likely. before dimitri, my mother had been the gold standard by which i measured all badassedness.

There seems to be this tendency toward denigrating romantic comedies as of late because it becomes something sort of cheesy or whatever. whereas this embraced what it was. as a fan of when harry met sally or annie hall, as a demonstration of what romantic comedy could be and should be, i immediately phoned nira back and said, "yeah, i'd like to do this. it'll be fun."
