savages
This movie makes my [previous] dark stuff look like comedy. I mean, this is really dark. As an actor, you can’t approach it other than to say she was a real person. The most interesting thing to me is when you read the book [Savage Grace, by Natalie Robins and Steven ML Aronson], which is a collection of interviews and recollections and letters, what strikes you is everybody is talking about how charismatic Barbara was. People said, ”Oh she was so charming, she was witty and charismatic. She was beautiful and sexy.” But then she was difficult, she was demanding, she was argumentative. It was really important to me that, rather than striving toward the darkness, which is sort of constantly there, there was this vibrancy about her. I felt a real responsibility to make her a real, living person.
As an actor, your job is to find a way to empathize with whomever you’re playing, whatever situation you’re in and to [step] outside judgment. But that being said, she couldn’t be further away from me. And there’s a huge difference between empathy and identification. I think people confuse the two; they think in order to play a character, you must identify with them. And you don’t. You just have to empathize with them to be in that situation.
(Julianne Moore on her role in Savage Grace)
Ξέρεις πώς είναι αυτές οι νύχτες, οι φαινομενικά ακίνδυνες.
Φτάνει τρεις το πρωί και αντί να κοιμάσαι, κουβαλάς τασάκια στο κρεβάτι κι ανοίγεις το παράθυρο.
Nα μην χάσεις σταγόνα από το ματωμένο ρούχο.
Τα μαύρα γυαλιά.
Τα καμένα αντρικά δέρματα.
Τις μηχανικές κινήσεις.
Δεν το είχα φανταστεί, οτι μπορούσε η Julianne Moore να παίξει (σε) κάτι τέτοιο.
