Patton said: "Getting to work face-to-face with Charlize Theron on 'Young Adult' and watching an actor that is on that level of... they're even beyond method, where they can just snap in and out of a character and you get to watch that process, and you get to watch someone like [director] Jason Reitman who shot the whole thing.
"We did it in a month, basically, so you're seeing this major director doing a smaller run-and-gun kind of operation. As a film buff, all that insight was really fascinating to me. I love that."
In the 2011 movie, comedian Patton played a disabled former classmate of Charlize's character and joked being both attracted and repulsed by her came naturally as it reminded him of his school days.
He quipped to The Reporter-Times newspaper: "Yeah, that was most of high school for me. That really wasn't that hard."
