Uh, it's just, this is how it works and this is how it affects the people who work in it.
This is how dangerous it is.
Here's how much of a gamble it is.
And here are all the other crazy people circling your world.
In my case, the family, you know, and, uh,
When I did that scene, I was committed to it, because when I read it, and Taylor's very good about writing gigantic monologues for me, and when something makes sense to you dialogue-wise, it's easy to do a long monologue.
if you don't know what it means, it's harder to learn the dialogue.
If you understand what the person has written, I'm not saying if you agree with it or disagree with it, but if you understand what they're saying, it's actually easier to do a monologue than it is to do a back-and-forth scene with people sometimes.
I bone more lines on a back-and-forth conversation than I do when I'm just sitting there telling somebody something.
Like Jerry Jones scene.
You know, Jerry was telling his life story.
Right.
I mean, it wasn't Taylor wrote something there for him, you know, because he'd heard the story before from Jerry.
But.
If it had been written and Taylor said, you gotta write, you gotta say these words, Jerry probably wouldn't have done it, been able to do it.
But the fact that Taylor said, just tell that story you told me.
It's his story.
It'd be like if I ask you, tell me your life story.
You can do that.
And if you get a person who's not an actor to be themselves, they're better than actors.
