“I want to tell the story. Mostly, when you see rock movies, it has to be this over-the-top thing. I want to give people a Bret Michaels movie where they see that my life is a comedy of errors.

“I never wanted to do just comedy or just drama; sometimes, going back and forth you can get yourself in trouble which happened to me on other things so you're always trying for a delicate balance - I also think that they compliment each other so well.” ThinkingTryingWellsSometimesWantedComedyHappenedTroubleBalanceDramaComplimentDelicateBack And ForthAlways Trying Author:Mike Binder

“I challenged myself to write/direct a romantic comedy. People trash talk the rom com, but it's one of the oldest cinematic genres, with stellar origins like Twentieth Century and Trouble in Paradise. I think as audiences lost their innocence, the genre lost its suspense. To create suspense, you need obstacles, so I gave my couple an obstacle that very few people ever overcome: their own behavior and their past.” PeopleThinkingNeedsWritingPastLostAudienceComedyTroubleCenturyCoupleBehaviorDirectOvercomingObstaclesInnocenceSuspenseGenreParadiseTrashTwentieth CenturyCinematicStellarTrash Talk Author:Leslye Headland

“The Divine Comedy is a political poem and when you say poetry is not about - he's always quoted out of context, that "poetry makes nothing happen," that doesn't mean you shrug your shoulders and don't try to make anything happen. And Dante felt that poetry was engaged, there was a point of view; it's not my point of view, it's orthodox medieval Christianity, and I have my troubles with that. He didn't feel that you could just rule out so important a section of life - we care about these things, and it's out of caring about them that we write poetry.” FeelsWritingTryingMeanImportantHappensCarePoliticalFeltViewsChristianityComedyTroubleDivineCaringPoint Of ViewThings HappenShouldersEngagedPoetry IsOrthodoxSectionsMedievalOf ContextDivine Comedy Author:W.
