I’d love to work with Lena Headey, Alfie Allen, Charles Dance. I’d love to work with Peter Dinklage Picture Quote #1

I love crazy names. It comes right from Monty Python and Woody Allen - nothing in the world makes me giggle more than a funny name. It became a thing I started doing when I wrote. If a person came into a store and said, How much is this apple? that person would have an insane name Picture Quote #1

Yet there are some people - Steve Allen would dissect comedy forever; he’s a really funny guy, but he would love talking about comedy. I’m doing it right now and you all seem bored Picture Quote #1

Woody Allen sets are very quiet. Extraordinary sense of power from a man who doesn’t do anything except just stand there Picture Quote #1

What if Woody Allen called me and said, I’m working on this movie and there’s a really divine role for you. We want exactly you! It would be such a fantasy. Forget it! My idol, Woody Allen! Picture Quote #1

What is ironic is that Allen Ginsberg’s importance was in its twilight for so many years that it took his death to bring it to the front page. He electrified an entire world! Picture Quote #1

In New York, you’ve got Donald Trump, Woody Allen, a crack addict and a regular Joe, and they’re all on the same subway car Picture Quote #1

The real achievement of Woody Allen was that he was making movies that felt very personal, and for a whole group of people, it spoke to them. Then he became an archetype, like Groucho Marx or Chaplin Picture Quote #1

Tell Allen I plead guilty to vampirism and other crimes against life. But I love him and nothing else cancels love Picture Quote #1

Martin Scorcese is probably America’s greatest living director, and while he is not a titan like John Ford or Alfred Hitchcock or Federico Fellini, he is certainly consistently more interesting than Steven Spielberg, Brian de Palma, Francis Ford Coppola or Woody Allen. Even a failure like Gangs of New York or a curiosity like The Aviator is more interesting and ambitious than Munich, The Black Dahlia or Scoop Picture Quote #1

Barbra Streisand has always been an inspiration for me. I admire Jennifer Lopez because she’s been against all the odds, and she’s made such a name for herself, and she can put her name on anything and it sells, and I admire that about her, but Barbara Streisand and Woody Allen are my favorites Picture Quote #1

Even while in school - initially, Vineberg Allen in Mussourie, and later, a number of schools in Ludhiana - I aspired to achieve great things in life. Admittedly, I wasn’t quite sure about what these great things would be Picture Quote #1
