More Quotes From Zach:
"I was kosher until I had my Bar Mitzvah, and I parlayed officially becoming a man into telling my father I wanted to eat cheeseburgers."

"When you are writing a script, you can't help but stop and daydream about which actors are going to play the parts, and I kind of imagined Natalie Portman. Not just because she is beautiful, because obviously she is, but she is a wonderful actress who hasn't had a chance in a long time to show the world how talented she is".
"They put all this money into these huge movies, and then no one goes to see them. That sort of shows that they're out of touch. Then, everyone in town passes on my little movie, and it does really well."
