It was going on one, two in the morning, and we were shooting what I felt was an important scene for me, when he makes an attempt to be quote-unquote straight, in a suit, and at the end of it he gets emotional and locks himself in the other room. And I felt like, I’m not getting what I wantβ€”I’m not happy with it. Mike was happy with it. He called me the next day and said, β€œI know you weren’t happy with the scene last night. Believe me, we wouldn’t have gone home if I had felt we weren’t getting it.” And then he sort of became my psychiatrist and said, β€œYou find it difficult to be happy, don’t you? You find it difficult to enjoy things.” And I said, β€œWell, sometimes. Last night was about feeling too tired and not feeling I was reaching what I needed to reach for the scene.” He talked to me then about when he was making, I don’t know whether it was Virginia Woolf or The Graduate. He said, β€œI didn’t enjoy it for a second. I was worried about so many things.” And then he said, β€œYou know, this is never going to happen again quite this way. You should try to allow yourself to enjoy this more. Take a minute a day, and then add a minute the next day, and another minute. Pretty soon, you’ll have hours of happiness.”

The Birdcage opened thirty years ago today, so in its honor, I want to share one of my favorite stories about Mike Nichols that didn't make it into my biography. This is from an interview I did with Nathan Lane.

Does she walk? Does she talk? Does she come complete?

My homeroom homeroom angel always pulled me from my seat

She was pure like snowflakes no one could ever stain

The memory of my angel could never cause me pain

a dark hallway with scream 7 on the bottom right Alt: a dark hallway in which ghostface jumps down in a horror film

SCREAM is my fave horror franchise

but SCREAM 7 had: worst killer reveal, set pieces, kills, script, & 'state of horror' comment of them all

the new direction with Ortega & Barrera had promise β€” it got culled when people creating the film openly opposed genocide

β€œWhen I sit down to write a book, I do not say to myself, β€˜I am going to produce a work of art.’ I write it because there is some lie that I want to expose, some fact to which I want to draw attention, and my initial concern is to get a hearing.” β€” George Orwell
