More From Roger Ebert

[the man] was a case where it was a funny role teamed up with another actor. it's a great teaming. and the role was a bigger role. it wasn't so much that it was a co-starring role. this is not a new direction. i'm not saying, 'no. i'm only now co-starring.' it just happens it's a co-starring role.

It's fear of the unknown. the unknown is what it is. and to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that-it's all illusion. unknown is what it is. accept that it's unknown and it's plain sailing. everything is unknown-then you're ahead of the game. that's what it is. right?
Inspirational Funny Dream
When you look into the faces of these quiet creatures who don't know how to tell stories--who are mute, who can't make themselves heard, who fade into the woodwork, who only think of the perfect answer after the fact, after they're back at home, who can never think of a story that anyone else will find interesting--is there not more depth and more meaning in them? you can see every letter of every untold story swimming on their faces, and all the signs of silence, dejection, and even defeat. you can even imagine your own face in those faces, can't you?

Internationally and in foreign markets, movies starring women don't make as much money as movies starring men. and then you can blame filmmakers, especially in comedy, which is my bread and butter, because it's become a bit of a boys' club over the years. with the boys in charge you get these takes on women which are either the girlfriend or the mean wife or the girl who appears in a romantic comedy. you're just getting either men's fantasies about women or what they think is the reality about women instead of men just having a healthy attitude about women.
Girl Attitude Mean
Why is a movie starring women considered a gimmick and a movie starring men is just a normal movie?

Genius is its own reward; for the best that one is, one must necessarily be for oneself. . . . further, genius consists in the working of the free intellect., and as a consequence the productions of genius serve no useful purpose. the work of genius may be music, philosophy, painting, or poetry; it is nothing for use or profit. to be useless and unprofitable is one of the characteristics of genius; it is their patent of nobility.

I never wanted to get a job of musician. that was kind of my thing. i came from somewhat of a musical family. i had an uncle on broadway. my dad kind of knows how to play instruments. although, i always find it annoying when he does play an instrument.
