Funny People

July 25, 2009 by Marilyn Horowitz

Just watched the Comedy Central special Inside Funny People. After 68 days of shooting, writer/director Judd Apatow made this observation:

“Now is the time when I should learn the lesson of the movie which is to connect with people and not just be obsessed with your work or your jokes. But I am at the beginning of an anxiety attack about not having anything to work on. That’s how f***** up I am. I spent two years trying to make this point and yet even I have a lot of trouble living it.”

What are you trying to say with your movie? How good are you at following your own advice?
