On the comedy side of what I love as a filmmaker are Richard Pryor, Lenny Bruce, and Eddie Murphy; those are my favorites. David Dobkin Read Quote
I watch comedy on TV, and it’s too cutty for me. I get a little jarred, and it succeeds. It’s not like it’s not working, and I look at certain things, and it has the cutting… it’s not like I’d make terribly different cuts, but for some reason, it moves too fast for me. David Dobkin Read Quote
I honestly never thought in my career I was going to do a body-switching movie. David Dobkin Read Quote

I do believe in God. I don’t believe in God as a person, but I believe in God as a state of energy and consciousness that we all share. David Dobkin Read Quote
