09.03.2026 00:00 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0It was going on one, two in the morning, and we were shooting what I felt was an important scene for me, when he makes an attempt to be quote-unquote straight, in a suit, and at the end of it he gets emotional and locks himself in the other room. And I felt like, Iβm not getting what I wantβIβm not happy with it. Mike was happy with it. He called me the next day and said, βI know you werenβt happy with the scene last night. Believe me, we wouldnβt have gone home if I had felt we werenβt getting it.β And then he sort of became my psychiatrist and said, βYou find it difficult to be happy, donβt you? You find it difficult to enjoy things.β And I said, βWell, sometimes. Last night was about feeling too tired and not feeling I was reaching what I needed to reach for the scene.β He talked to me then about when he was making, I donβt know whether it was Virginia Woolf or The Graduate. He said, βI didnβt enjoy it for a second. I was worried about so many things.β And then he said, βYou know, this is never going to happen again quite this way. You should try to allow yourself to enjoy this more. Take a minute a day, and then add a minute the next day, and another minute. Pretty soon, youβll have hours of happiness.β
The Birdcage opened thirty years ago today, so in its honor, I want to share one of my favorite stories about Mike Nichols that didn't make it into my biography. This is from an interview I did with Nathan Lane.
