Making the film all the more socially rich would've been beautiful. To have had Hanukkah, to have had Diwali in there. So I really do suppose in the event that I repeated the experience it would have a more extensive spread to it than the film currently does."
Recently, he communicated lament over jokes in the content that fat disgraced Martine McCutcheon's personality. He told The Times: "I recall how stunned I was quite a while back when Scarlett shared with me, 'You can never utilize "fat" once more'… Goodness, you were correct. In my age calling somebody plump [was funny] — in Adoration Really there were kids about that. Those jokes aren't any more interesting."
Tending to his inadequacies with variety, Curtis said he was "simply inept and wrong" to not put forth a greater amount of an attempt to compose comprehensive jobs.
"I wish I'd been on the ball… I think since I came from a very undiverse school and pack of college companions, I believe that I clung to the inclination that I wouldn't know how to compose those parts. I assume I was simply moronic and off-base about that. I felt like me, my projecting chief, my makers simply didn't look outwards," he said.
