For me, one of my favorites, director-wise, is Tim Burton. I also really admire the work of actors like Sean Penn.

I didn’t have a role model. My role model was Michael Jordan. Bad role model for an Indian dude... I didn’t have anyone who looked like me. And by the time I was old enough to have what could have been a role model, they were my peers. Aziz Ansari is my peer. Kal Penn is my peer Picture Quote #1

When I was a teenager, the actors I was really into were Mickey Rourke and Sean Penn. I saw ‘Rumble Fish’ on my 16th birthday, and around the same time, it was ‘Falcon and the Snowman’ and ‘Bad Boys’ from Sean Penn Picture Quote #1

One of the advantages of having gone to Penn State was having had a scholar for a mentor - Philip Young. Also, a professional writer named Philip Klass taught there.

Sean Penn, for his acting as well as his writing and directing. There are so many actors I respect, but his reach is so wide Picture Quote #1

Oscar nominations came out today. Up for best actor, Sean Penn for ‘Mystic River,’ Jude Law for ‘Cold Mountain,’ and of course, George W. Bush for ‘Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction.’ Picture Quote #1

But the scenes don’t feel pulpy Picture Quote #1
