 Reiser, Paul (qv)s production company is called Nuance  Productions, after a line in the first film he appeared in,  _Diner (1982)_ (qv): "You know what word Im not comfortable with?  Nuance. Its not a real word. Like "gesture". Gestures a real word.  With gesture you know where you stand. But nuance? I dont know.  Maybe Im wrong."
