“No, I love the idea that someone changes. As an actor it's always the thing that you look for. He is someone who starts off bright, cheerful and confident and then has everything taken away from him.

“Comedy is a wonderful device for distance that allows us to look at what we're talking about with some degree of distance and hopefully with a bit more perspective and honesty. With many exceptions, a movie with no jokes is far less appealing to me.” LooksBitsTalkingComedyWonderfulHonestyPerspectiveDegreesJokesDistanceHopefullyExceptionDevices Author:Alexander Payne
