How much personal experience went into Wedding Crashers?
I never did crash a wedding when I was younger. But it seems like a great idea, in a way, because it looks like it would be a lot of fun. The multicrash sequence looks like a blast, with you and Owen ending up in bed with a bevy of naked beauties. That was the only time that Owen showed up early and left late. He kept going, “Guys, I don’t know if we have this yet. Let’s keep shooting.” I was more professional. But that was a lot of fun, with those girls dancing and then laying ’em down on the bed. You end up with a clingy but perverse little firecracker played by Isla Fisher. Ever really have a girlfriend that freaky? Not to that extreme, thankfully. There were some people that, after breaking up with them, I thought were a little bit crazy. Christopher Walken plays her dad. Remind you of anyone’s scary father? A lot of girlfriends I’ve had, I’ve never even met their fathers. Even if I dated them for a long time, their parents were somewhere else, and I never made the trip back home.
