Truthfully, I almost avoided While You Were Sleeping, because I find those romantic comedies kind of precious, and theyre full of lines that leave you feeling a little bewildered when you say them. – Bill Pullman
Oh, great. This is going to be like shooting baskets with Magic Johnson watching. – Bill Pullman
I also turn down whats probably a good amount of coinage to be made out of playing dads, an incredible number of obnoxious dad. – Bill Pullman
With While You Were Sleeping, it was so much fun and such a Cinderella story, that I didnt want to do another romantic comedy. I wanted to do the opposite. – Bill Pullman
Ooh, its too embarrassing to share my innermost romantic secrets – although I have written Danielle the odd poem. If anything they are more comedic than romantic. They used to be well-received but that was before she started studying Shakespeare at drama college. Now I feel so inept. – Gary Lineker
