Philip Marlowe, Bogart.
You know, I love all that stuff.
And, you know, one of the things I love about genre films is you can use the genre to be entertaining and you can fill the story up with substance and message and ideas, but it's still entertaining because you're inside the genre.
I loved this character.
It's been a funny year for me because Blue Moon is probably the most different I've ever pushed myself outside the framework of my own identity.
And then the lowdown is I just relate to Lee.
He's coyote chasing windmills, running into propellers.
He's a dreamer and an idealist and self-centered and...
doesn't see his own blind spots, and he's a moron, and I just completely relate to him.
And he can say the right thing all the time and do the wrong thing all the time.
And out of that, obviously, comes a lot of humor.
I kind of saw Lee as a guy who's frozen in 1996 or something.
I'm still wearing the same pants I wore back then.
I got the same belt buckle I wore back then.
He still listened to the same music he listened to back then.
And I admire him.
And I also identify with his shortcomings.
And Sterling is really fun to work with.
I had a great time on Reservation Dogs.
We got along like a house on fire.
