I’m not one of those kind of people who does the observational ‘Hey, don’t you hate it when you’re at the grocery store and the line’s long and the cash register starts taking too long.’ I don’t really do that kind of stuff. I’m heavy on persona, and I do a lot of interacting with the audience. Judah Friedlander Read Quote

I’ve done all kinds of movies, but I wanna do some more independent films that are not your run-of-the-mill type movies like ‘American Splendor’, which I had a big part in, that are really trying to do something unique. Judah Friedlander Read Quote
I started doing my own animated movies when I was in ninth grade; that’s when I got the filmmaking bug. When I was about 16, I started writing jokes for doing stand up, and then I was 19 and started doing stand up. Judah Friedlander Read Quote
I think I’ve proven with my career that I can play a wide variety of characters. Yet, I still get typecast as the crazy slob guy. That’s how it always works. Judah Friedlander Read Quote
