He feels doomed. He feels doomed. And the original title of this script, which I loved, was called Born Lucky. Right.
Yeah. I don't know. I think that was the real footage. That's what I was going to say.
I think it was. I think they used the real footage.
Did you? Yeah.
It's mind-blowing.
That draft scene, that draft lottery scene, I think was the one day that I was around that Tim O'Brien was on set. Oh, wow. read his book, and it just was... He never stopped being so helpful and effusive about the whole show and how it's being treated and everything, but him being there that day gave it another air of something in the atmosphere that felt, you know, that was... Like weighted?
Yeah, very weighted. Yeah. Yeah, that scene was, I think in the entire, my experience of the show was my favorite scene. Yeah, it was a great scene. Just because, just exactly for what you guys are saying, it's like what a moment in history for these people. Young men. And like, I remember at the time, my brother was 19. And, you know, these people were 19, 18, 19. That is nothing. Nothing.
That is nothing. You know, and that is just still hard to comprehend. Yeah. How, you know, what's at stake really and what's being decided for them. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. One of the ways that him and Jack are so different, because I feel like if Jack were drafted, he wouldn't have that mindset. He doesn't think of it as a death sentence. Nicky, for whatever reason, is cut from a different cloth, so to speak, and they're like, no, I'm not going to make it. He's either smart enough.
It's like my younger brother, when he went on one audition once and was thinking about being an actor when he was very young, and then he went on one audition, and he was like, no, I'm never doing that again. Why would I do that again? Nikki looks at that realistically and is like, I'm not coming out of that. I'm not.
And maybe it's Jack's own ignorance, confidence, how he's built versus how Nikki's built. But he's like, no, that's not happening. That's not my fate. If I go, I'm not coming back.
Nice. He says CK. He says CK, referencing Clark Kent.
They would have a white van still. Let me ask, as long as we're being honest, have you carried on the tighty? Whitey?
That was a quick tangent. Because when I... I mean, just to work out with a trainer, we aim for like 400, 500. Yeah. But even that's... Really? That's pushing it. It feels like a lot. Here's the thing. Well, I am curious. This is a full-on tangent. Go ahead. Do it. Do it. Because, okay, so I...
When Maya was doing Mr. and Mrs. Smith, she was training for the show, and she started training with this trainer, and I started training with them too. And they were great. They would really work you. And I've gone to the gym. I've worked out. I've played sports my whole life.
However, when I would work out with these people, I would always be like, I'm either going to shit my pants, throw up, or pass out. Sure. And I don't want to feel that every day. No, you don't. And so it is the feeling of being like, I finding that like I want to be pushed. Yes. I don't want to like kill myself.
Sully, you know about long gait. I do, in fact.
It is. We are at the zone two cardio equivalent of talking about this.
Thank you, Susie, for sharing that. Michael, any thoughts? It's so powerful. I'm just thinking in my head the amount of times that what goes into making anything. So many decisions. It feels very technical. Sometimes you feel emotionally detached from it. And then the making of something is always different. But once something is out there, it becomes subjective.
