Ray Romano tonight makes his directorial debut with the TribecaFilmFestival premiere of ‘Somewhere In Queens’
DEADLINE: I’m an Irish guy, but have spent nearly 40 years courting and marrying a pure Italian gal. As I watched Somewhere in Queens, I felt right at home. From the Italian insistence to overfeeding you, to Sunday dinner starting at noon. You got the authentic feel down, and the only thing missing was the Seven Fish tradition on Christmas Eve.DEADLINE: My first Christmas Eve, they filled my dish with fish I never heard of.
DEADLINE: How did the anxiety compare to when you did standup on Letterman and found yourself in a deal with his company, leading to your breakthrough sitcom?Raymond. DEADLINE: You find yourself going, why didn’t I pay closer attention to what Marty Scorsese did and said on The Irishman?: [Laughs]. But to be honest, I don’t know if I’m wired that way, to be the guy who’s going to know the intricacies of lighting and cameras. I think my strength in directing came through finding the guy who’s going to give that to me, hold my hand through it and express and explain it to me and listen to me and know what I’m trying for, and then go get it.
That was our jumping off point. And my wife is a breast cancer survivor and I’d gone through that with her, so that’s where that came from. The whole Italian thing, too, and the father issues. I’ve always had father issues.: There are aspects I like. The fulfillment of a script you helped create, with characters and story and now you’re seeing it through. Would I direct someone else’s piece of work? I, I don’t think I have that desire.
