I approached him kind of like I had a miniature Max sitting on my shoulder. I pictured Max saying, "This guy has got to give love every once in a while. He has to!" I knew there had to be tiny little windows of redemption. ↗

I approach dancing from a different angle than those who begin dancing at 8 or 9. Those who have studied from the beginning never question anything. ↗

A Madagascar Hissing Roach chasing Jerry Lewis. That would be a really neat treat. ↗

It began as this desire to do this science fiction movie about perhaps one of the last insects left that nobody's done anything on, which is the cockroach - and truly one of the most frightening insects. ↗
