This is a big booth.
Yeah, please do that.
Starring James Franco and directed by Danny Boyle,
they're expected to come onto the red carpet
in about 10 minutes.
I think the value is really good through this.
I booked with Danny, I went on a diet,
I went to a climbing gym.
It's a truly original structure and idea
and story to be told,
and the way he tells it is also unique.
It's an intense film,
and I think John and I both needed to figure out
where this character was from and how he sounded,
and it took a while.
How did you prepare for this part?
Well, you know, I did a research for prisons for Green Mile,
and so I knew a little bit about it for that.
This was tricky,
and it really represents special effects,
makeup at its most refined,
because it's not about putting on a fake mustache or a beard,
but it's what happens to a woman's face
if she's lived the life of a man.
But above all, she was a sensational beauty
and a sensational movie star,
and all of those things combined
have kept her very much in the public eye.
It's about a journey back towards people, really,
and it's actually, although it's about one guy,
it's about everyone as well,
and I don't mean that he represents everyone,
it's that at the beginning of the film,
he moves away from people
and he's quite a self-sufficient, almost arrogant,
some people would say, young man,
who is an independent, incredible athlete,
doesn't seem to need everybody,
seeks out these lonely places,
and when he's trapped,
he begins to think about the people
that he's treated like that.
Thank you.
Okay, let's eat.
That looks really interesting.
Let's be friends with you.
People kind of know what they're coming into,
and, you know, as much as we are, quote-unquote,
improvising, things tend to stay on the rails
of the narrative path.
It's just a question of, like,
getting there in the most organic
and fresh way possible.
A brush of the tenderloin is a 20-minute short
that sort of tells the story of what happens
when the sort of soft-spoken muralist
comes in to paint a mural on this corner.
I hooked an interview up where I could meet Alice Cooper,
and that was a dream of a lifetime.
Colin is one of the world's great talkers.
I mean, he loves nothing better
than telling a very long anecdote.
So much so that during the shoot
I had to impose a two-minute anecdote rule.
Sure, but I don't like talking about how I identify
because that's when it gets personal, but...
And we don't want to get that.
No.
Those are all secrets.
Uh, he's a big goofball.
Are you a big goofball?
Uh, a little bit. A little one.
Thank you so much.
Yes, absolutely.
What's your favorite gadget?
Uh, the camera that that man is holding right there,
which I'm desperate to get my hands on,
which is the new EELS T2i.
Please shot him a go after me.
Yeah, please do that.
That is nice.
