James Caan told me at the end of filming 'Elf' that he had been waiting through the whole film for me to be funny - and I never was.
I think so. I can't think of anything that requires more finesse than comedy, both from a verbal and visual point of view.
I was always playing the Hammond Organ back to front even during the days of the Nice, going back to 1968. Really what I was doing there, was choosing notes at random and trying to make some sense of them, improvising back to front.
