really impactful he was he's such a gent and he takes it so seriously but with such a humour and a creative sort of approach and I remember watching him and we had all our stuff together that was that was really influential but moving here moving to the States and making a film and I remember going and rehearsing on the Sony lot and Yeah, it was just, it was a dream.
It was kind of fantastic, fantastical.
No, I was in West Hollywood. I was in one of those funny little hotels where you've got a kitchen in the corner, something sweet, Summerfield Sweet, something like that.
Where, you know, you have a bed and a little, everything's in one room.
Generous, too. That's another thing. Really generous on set. and aware that he was working with someone who was pretty green. I mean, I'd only done a couple of films and I'm still a little bit like this, but you know, just warm and yeah, it was a very happy time. But here's the funny thing, you know, again, too young to realize that that doesn't mean the film's gonna be a hit. Right?
So you're sitting there going, wow, I'm in Hollywood. It's really good. And it is. It's a great film. And the proof with that one is that people still refer to it. Thank you for what you said. I mean, and you're right. It holds up. Oh, my God. But at the time, it just sort of disappeared. And I kind of, you know, that was my first taste of, oh.
Oh, you've got to keep trying. You've got to keep throwing the spaghetti at the wall until it sticks, right?
It's funny how that happens. Yeah, the accountants, the studio. No, exactly. But it's funny how, you know, if it stays in your... I mean, it's not one of those we look back on and go, well, it worked at the time. But, you know, again, this is why it's such a shame in a way that films are judged on their, you know, opening weekend. Box office.
You think, let's come back and re-review this in 10 years, five years, 10, 20 years.
Someone was saying that Grey's Anatomy is this show that is suddenly being watched by everybody.
Yeah, Ripley really raised my game because of the nominations and the other people in it. There was a little bit of a, there were a few, you know, tumbleweed moments between Gattaca and Ripley where because Gattaca hadn't been a financial hit, I did a couple of smaller parts. But still, there's that thing of, you know, it's not consistent. And Ripley really was a leap forward. For me.
I was working, I did this really odd little film with a director from Hong Kong and Anthony's wife was one of the producers on it. And he was watching the rushes for that while he was casting. I mean, I look back on that decision. That's the way that that works. I don't know how, I mean, I don't know what he saw.
It's amazing.
The great Hannah. Max, who's now a director, was like a little boy on set of that. He was, I think, when they were, say, 10? Was Hannah there, too?
Yeah. I mean, you know, on location all down the coast in Italy, we rehearsed at the famous Cinecitta studio in Rome, and then we shot in Rome, we shot in... Ischia, which is this beautiful island off Naples. Near Capri. Near Capri. There's three, then Progido, and yeah, it was beautiful.
Phil Hoffman.
Is it wasted on you? Not as much as I wish I had. Yeah. There was a bit of me looking back. But now you can, I'll bet. Well, yeah, I'm better at it. But there's, you know, I kind of thought, well, this is what movies are like. You know, sitting on a beach and sailing a yacht and hanging out with all these cool young movie stars. And it was exceptionally special because of the, you know,
The goodwill that Anthony had deservedly been given through the success of The English Patient and the people that he had assembled were, you know, pretty extraordinary group from the cast to all the crew. It was a great experience. And I wish I'd been a little better at just, yeah, living in it and realizing how special it was.
It was so good. I was just mad about her. I just so wanted to work with her and witness – I think a lot of, honestly, I've been thinking about this recently, about what kind of drives me. And a lot of it is curiosity. It's why I've kind of done different franchises, too. I sort of, you know, I really, I'm a bit of a film nerd. Like, I just love going to the movies and going to...
you know, seeing stuff and having an opinion. But I'm also kind of dead curious about how do they do that? How's that done? And she was flying at that time. And her and Paul Feig and that work that they were doing, I just wanted to witness it. I'll be honest, I... did not feel I was in my comfort zone. Really? There's a scene opposite her.
