What are your fondest memories of working with the great Bill Paxton?

Hey Peter, huge fan of you and your brother's work!

One of the things I love most about your movies are the soundtracks. Jonathan Richman for Mary, Steely Dan covers for Irene, Flaming Lips in Heartbreak Kid, Bob Dylan (!) in Stooges, the music is always amazing. How do you guys come up with such odd musical ideas, like the Steely Dan covers or Dylan for such a silly slapstick movie, and do you ever have trouble getting rights? It couldn't have been easy to get Monkberry Moon Delight for Hall Pass.

Also, I've just got to say that Stuck on You is a criminally underrated comedy classic. "Boozin' with Cher...boozin' with Cher..."

Hey Michael,

Clue wasn't particularly well received upon initial release but has now (rightfully) become a comedy cult classic. Do you think there's a reason it has slowly grown in stature over the years and was there any inkling during filming that you were making a comedy far smarter and more ambitious than what was being made at the time?
