That's so fucking incredible. What a great... story about humanity and people and belief and all that kind of... Also, I like to think that Manuela, before she knew it was a screenplay, she was nervous because she had all these cards about going to Vegas and killing a hooker. She's like, I got a serial killer here.

I mean, the things that I think that I do that tend to work the best, like if it's Friday Night Lights or The Kingdom or Deepwater Horizon or Patriot's Day, these are films that I do a tremendous amount of research on. You know, I'm kind of a psycho about that.

I'm in Tel Aviv right now, and last night we had a missile attack that was pretty amazing and somewhat terrifying, and I've always been someone who likes to see things for myself, and that generally translates to my writing, and I try to have as deep of almost anthropological or almost journalistic understanding of my world.

So, you know, I went to Saudi Arabia a long time ago before we did The Kingdom and, you know, lived there for three weeks and got as much of an understanding as I could of that culture. And once I kind of feel like I've done that work and I understand the world, when I did Lone Survivor, I went to Iraq and embedded with the Navy SEAL platoon for a month.

on the border of Syria, and that helped me make a better film. And that, you know, helps me in theory communicate with, you know, someone, you know, like when we were doing the scene in the kingdom where they, you know, we're going to cut your head off.

You know, I've had a... I've tried to have a proximity, certainly never to that kind of level of violence, but to at least understand as best as I can, you know, what these... you know, executions were looking like and how they might have gone down.

And that, I think, could help me help you reach an appropriate level of terror and a willingness to fight, which you did so well in that, which I found fascinating. And I've had so many people talk about that scene and how Jason Bateman, this sweet, funny guy, went fucking psycho to save himself. I love that.
