Paul Feig wrote and directed the biggest comedy of the summer so far-- "Spy" starring Melissa McCarthy and Jason Statham. Last week Feig stopped by the SiriusXM studios to sit down with Ron Bennington and Gail Bennington to talk about the movie. Feig talked about some of the reasons his films succeed where others fail, stressing the importance of trusting your performers, using logic in physical comedy, and guarding tone. He also discussed why chick flicks fail, the return of strong women to the silver screen, and addressed the question of why so many adults want to "grow down" instead of act like grown ups. Feig can't understand the desire for adults to act like kids. In fact, he said, he can't remember a time when he didn't want to be an adult.
