No, nor should you, Mark.
Why would I feel guilt?
No, I'm not saying that you have to feel guilt.
Yeah, you know, he's an electric performer and it was kind of fun.
And like, I remember on that scene, Jesse, as he always did, came in with a very specific plan about how to shoot it and where everyone would be and how it was going to be choreographed.
Because, you know, we're on a train, so the options are limited.
And Kieran was like...
hang on a minute, why would I stand there?
Let's rehearse it.
Let's see what happens.
And so even before we'd started rolling in a kind of meta-dramatic way, they'd fallen into the same dynamic as the characters.
And Jesse would, of course, like very wryly be like, well, this is perfect because you have no respect for me as a director and nor does the character have any respect for me.
So this is going to work great.
And it did work great.
And it really did feel like, because we were traveling through these places, it felt like we really were this little unit
going on this journey and it's just exciting to act opposite Kieran some of my favourite scenes were you know getting to go head to head with Benji and you sort of know he's always going to bring it and it's always going to work but then he's also very playful and kind of doesn't mind pushing the edges of it which I think sometimes makes for really unexpected choices that can lead to you know interesting things happening on camera and so you have to kind of react a different way each time
Yeah, a little bit, but that's fun.
And it suited the character for him to have that energy.
Well, I guess that's sort of central to the movie, you know, is that idea of like if you hold your own pain or, you know, grievances in modern, the relatively comfortable seeming modern day against like the sheer scale of that historic event.
Trauma.
