I think the essence of humor has not changed. It's all about surprise, facilitating follows. But the context of humor has changed.

Everything is so much vielschmutziger.

With every rising of the sun
Think of your life as just begun.
The past has shrived and buried deep
All yesterdays— there let them sleep,
Nor seek to summon back one ghost
Of that innumerable host.
Concern yourself with but today;
Woo it and teach it to obey
Your wish and will. Since time began
Today has been the friend of man.
But in his blindness and his sorrow
He looks to yesterday and tomorrow.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

There's always going to be someone out there who doesn't like what you do, doesn't like your style, your face. That's part of life. But I feed off that.

As the stars make more and more money - one person gets $12 million, $14 million, $15 million, $20 million - everyone else is expected to work for peanuts. And that includes some extraordinary actors who are, today, working for peanuts because the production companies have decided they don't need to pay these people, and they don't.
