Personal Quote:
Many filmmakers portray teenagers as immoral and ignorant, with pursuits that are pretty base. But I haven't found that to be the case. I listen to kids. I respect them. Some of them are as bright as any of the adults I've met. See more »Trivia:
Many examples of unproduced screenplays he had written and were rejected by studios were:- National Lampoon's Jaws 3/People 0 (1979). A documentary spoof of the making of Jaws (1975). Due to a lawsuit from Steven Spielberg looming if it was made, Universal Studios scrapped it.
