  • The family gathered to celebrate your father's 85th birthday.

  • I wasn't at the party pre my dad's death.

  • It was great.

  • Congratulations on the film.

  • So the film opens and closes with a mug that says, My house, my coffee, my rules.

  • What is your strange house rule?

  • No bullshit.

  • No bullshit.

  • Um, house rules.

  • You know, we don't smoke.

  • No, I just I like a soon as you know, and there's nothing worse than a reformed smoker.

  • There's probably nothing worse than a reformed drinker. 00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:2.830 It's because I but I have alcohol in my house easily, but smoking. 00:01:2.830 --> 00:01:3.500 I just don't. 00:01:3.650 --> 00:01:10.710 I probably My rule is probably knows we have about yes, which is interesting because your character he smokes.

  • I know I hadn't smoked a long time.

  • Did you?

  • Actually smoking, dude.

  • Daniel, your Southern accent is so good in this film.

  • And you also did one for Logan.

  • Lucky.

  • So how easily does the southern accent come to?

  • You know, easily and no and no accent comes to me easily until they wish they did.

  • I'm a terrible mimic.

  • I was just talking to some of the other days about it.

  • And so saying, If I do impressions of people, they just sound like the same person.

  • It's like I don't have it, So I have to.

  • I have to really work it.

  • It's like kind of learning a song or something.

  • You have to kind of just have to kind of just bash away for months on end before and then when when it when it's in, it's in.

  • And then I could just do it and I can say anything it and that has to be.

  • It has to be like that.

  • I can't sort of I can't put it on Was the accent Your idea?

  • Ryan.

  • It's his script.

  • It's in the script. 00:01:58.020 --> 00:02:1.630 Yeah, that's in the script that I mean, it was described him on the way the scripts written. 00:02:1.630 --> 00:02:12.250 He's written as this eloquent Southern gentleman, someone who's that usedto oratory, who's used It was used to speaking like the sound of his own voice, who speaks his thoughts to get his head together.

  • S so it was just there.

  • So I just, you know, I filled in the gaps.

  • So when you saw this group, were you excited at the possibility of doing another voice other than James Bond?

  • I was excited about doing this script.

  • It's like it's such it's so beautifully written on Dhe.

  • So much fun on my belly laughed when I read it the first time on Belly Love whenever it the second time.

  • I mean, it's it's that kind of It's that, you know, I'm just saying it was satisfying things for me, a watching in front with an audience because it's one of those movies that just screams to going to be seen by in the movie theater and that people got the gags and they go every gag, get every gang you say every gag, every you know that every character has conned you.

  • Just It's so satisfying so that I barely left watching the both of you, Jamie. 00:02:59.430 --> 00:03:6.050 Was it hard to keep a straight face on scene when you were doing your monologue specifically going through all the details of the mystery? 00:03:6.240 --> 00:03:14.110 Oh, it's not hard doing a straight face because he's telling a story, you know, he's a storyteller.

  • I mean, really, what?

  • A detective who is working out ideas in his head.

  • He's telling all of us a story, and so and his sort of Mulet feel.

  • Melipilla ce Elif Youlus help Mei.

  • I'll say it again, Mel lift, Louis Voice.

  • This honeyed whiskey honeyed, delicious molasses voice is is compelling, so I wouldn't say that what he was saying was funny in that moment, because he's telling the story.

  • Do you know what I mean?

  • So it's not.

  • It's hard to keep a straight face around Michael Shannon, period.

  • Like anything, he does script it, even if you know what's coming. 00:03:57.060 --> 00:04:0.650 He does it in a weird way that makes you left so great really quick. 00:04:0.660 --> 00:04:3.270 You compare the mystery to the center of a doughnut. 00:04:3.280 --> 00:04:7.610 If you guys were donut, what doughnut would you be and why I'm just glazed. 00:04:8.640 --> 00:04:10.080 I'm old fashioned.

  • There's an old fashioned doughnut, has more rough edges, are kind of glaze, but it's it's glazed is sort of.

  • That shiny thing is still sticky.

  • Old fashioned are are they look like crowns.

  • They kind of have little edges and their little crispier up your ass.

  • Very smooth film obviously opens up and closes with a mug that says my house my coffee.

  • My rules.

  • So what is your strange house rule?

  • My my personal answer.

  • The house I grew up in your personal house, my personal house.

  • I don't have many rules, and that is I don't know that I have.

  • Your rules are the one you grew up in. 00:04:58.640 --> 00:05:0.150 Uh, shoes off. 00:05:1.440 --> 00:05:2.850 It's not that uncommon. 00:05:3.390 --> 00:05:4.550 Oh, my gosh. 00:05:5.490 --> 00:05:6.390 I don't know. 00:05:6.650 --> 00:05:8.270 No, no, no rules. 00:05:8.280 --> 00:05:8.860 Back on. 00:05:8.870 --> 00:05:11.210 No, no, I didn't have any rules.

  • I don't know.

  • No, really.

  • Come as you are.

  • Yeah, my childhood Dendy.

  • Yeah, Eggs was like that.

  • Just come back when you're hungry on you get some beings.

  • Yeah.

  • Both of your characters air heavily involved in the narrative of this film.

  • So were you guys given the whole script and did you know what?

  • The ending Waas.

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah.

  • What was it like getting the whole script?

  • The film?

  • Uh, well, typically, you get the whole script, but but it was It was certainly a fun read, you know, is one of those movies that you burned through because you don't really know who did it.

  • It was it was a real page turner.

  • I mean, I was guessing until the very end.

  • Yeah, likewise. 00:05:56.530 --> 00:06:0.190 I mean, it was Ah, very original, surprising and exciting. 00:06:0.190 --> 00:06:10.040 And I obviously right away fell in love with my character, and it was like, Good need to do that is please, I promise.

  • Yeah, I love the character martyr so much And the family in the movie Miss identifies you know your character's culture so much, and we never really get to find out where Marta's from.

  • So did you develop a cultural background for your character prepping for this one?

  • Um, and the actresses who played my mom and sister were actually Cuban like me.

  • So I think we went with it.

  • We just didn't want to get into, like, getting, like, actually same in the movie where she was from, because Cuba and the U.

  • S.

  • Have very specific rules and laws for immigration, and that would have complicated the whole the whole thing.

  • So the the end of the day, I think it was intentional, actually not saying where she was from.

  • And let's just, you know, leave people still guess English, You know, Christ, I have to ask. 00:06:57.060 --> 00:07:1.050 You know, everyone's probably ask you today, but what was it like telling everyone each. 00:07:1.050 --> 00:07:2.650 It It's great. 00:07:2.690 --> 00:07:3.860 It's really satisfying. 00:07:3.860 --> 00:07:6.180 I think it's a very appropriate statement, you know? 00:07:6.180 --> 00:07:10.370 I mean, like, it really kind of is I was going to say it's very cutting.

  • Yeah, it was initially the line was f off.

  • Um, but but we didn't want to make it and all rated movie.

  • Andi, I have a friend that used to say, Eat my shit, eat my shit.

  • I always thought it was such a funny thing to say.

  • I'm gonna do that.

  • Just waiting.

  • Um, but yeah.

  • Yeah, you should just felt right.

  • Can I say each is too late now?

  • Seven times, I think.

  • What?

  • By the when he says that we're all so happy to tell them these family eats shed that we is the first time I think we like, Yeah, it's like, is one redeeming?

  • It's like, Thank you.

  • Somebody said, Hey, what was your going to insult?

  • Growing up?

  • Um, probably f off, you know?

  • Yeah. 00:08:0.030 --> 00:08:5.120 Yeah, because it's got a, you know, for a Boston accent off, you can really drag off out the way. 00:08:5.340 --> 00:08:9.950 I would like to request that you all stayed until the investigation is completed.

  • What may I ask why?

  • Has something changed?

  • No, it hasn't changed or No, we can't ask.

  • Congratulations on the film.

  • The film opens and starts with a mug that says my house, My coffee, My rules.

  • Don, What is your strange house rule?

  • My strange house rule.

  • Um, I have very few rules in my house.

  • Don't lie.

  • Do what you say you're gonna D'oh!

  • Don't, Uh if you make a mistake, fix it and don't speak.

  • Unless it's funny.

  • Wow.

  • No, Those are the rules.

  • You just stick to the rules.

  • You don't get punished.

  • You are just point to the rules.

  • Oh, no.

  • See, that's rule number three right there.

  • You got it.

  • Don't talk anyone.

  • Yeah, you're not funny.

  • See?

  • Right there. 00:08:59.910 --> 00:09:2.390 It's his world over for you gotta be funny. 00:09:3.340 --> 00:09:3.900 I love it. 00:09:3.910 --> 00:09:5.430 I would not last two doing your house. 00:09:6.280 --> 00:09:9.690 You obviously played an iconic detective in Miami Vice. 00:09:9.700 --> 00:09:13.920 Did you give these guys any pointers on how to play a cool suavity, detective?

  • Oh, no, no, no.

  • They they don't need any help, you know?

  • They're they're pretty capable.

  • Did you feel like the detective come out during this?

  • Um, no, because I was.

  • So I loved playing this sort of do nothing sort of cad that you kept, man, that I was having a blast with that was it hard to keep a straight face during some of the scenes really hard.

  • You know what?

  • Who had the most difficult time was Ryan Johnson, director would be in the middle of the scenes that would be standing by the camera, just cackling, just giggling with I'm sorry, guys going to do it again made me laugh. 00:09:57.840 --> 00:10:4.350 Speaking of detectives, Daniel Craig's character refers to the mystery as the center of a doughnut. 00:10:4.640 --> 00:10:9.260 Oh, yeah, Let's not ruin it for people because that speeches, fan test, it's so unreal. 00:10:9.260 --> 00:10:12.810 But if you were a doughnut on what don't would you be in one place, baby.

  • Why, Um, I like it straight and riel and sweet.

  • You have, like, well, thought out answers for everything.

  • House rules the doughnut.

  • Shop it around a while.

  • I've had time to think about this family is truly desperate when people get desperate, this'd twisted with, so the film starts and ends with this mug that says my house, my coffee, my rules.

  • So I want to know What are your strange house rules?

  • Oh, my mothers have Korean court.

  • Green said no.

  • She's in the house.

  • Be clean.

  • That's not unusual.

  • But that's very important. 00:10:58.540 --> 00:11:2.130 Yeah, I don't know. 00:11:3.270 --> 00:11:4.480 No, I was gonna say the same. 00:11:4.480 --> 00:11:5.060 I just spent. 00:11:5.060 --> 00:11:13.270 I spent the last year living in Europe, and it's you take off your coat, you take off your shoes, but then some other places that have grown up in it's like you don't take off you shoes.

  • So I'm like, Okay, now, whatever, I take them off.

  • I didn't get them off.

  • Yeah, yes, I don't know.

  • I guess defense for you, Liver.

  • Where you do.

  • You guys have to come up with a strange house to roll over.

  • What would you come up with?

  • You have to pee outside.

  • There's no can use the bathroom.

  • That's where my mind, because wow, my Because I kinda have to use the bathroom.

  • Okay.

  • You're gonna be we're not gonna make you go outside.

  • I'm gonna be Oh, I feel like I have a little creative friends.

  • So if I had a house rule, I'd be like, please leave something or like draw something or, um, something like that, because I'm much better answer.

  • I don't I haven't Like I lived out of bags the last three years.

  • Soto have a home in somewhere.

  • Like in one place is a real dream. 00:11:59.980 --> 00:12:9.910 But like, I've learned that like your home and your your your home is where your friends are and where people you love are so that having little pieces of your friends is no actual pieces of your friends. 00:12:9.910 --> 00:12:16.400 But, like, I think that's beautiful.

  • One of my favorite parts in the film is when Daniel Craig's character compares the mystery to the center of a doughnut.

  • So if you guys were donut, what doughnut would you be in life?

  • Wow.

  • Um, hard hitting questions.

  • I love this.

  • I wish I had, like, some people really clever with their answers.

  • And like, I think I'm just gonna be ridiculous.

  • But what would you say?

  • Uh, God, what?

  • We took that buzzfeed that test yesterday where you had to pickett Pickett doughnut to see if you were guilty or or whether you would survive it.

  • Dinner party.

  • Yeah.

  • And, um, my theory was that if you picked jelly donut, it represented blood and death. 00:13:0.300 --> 00:13:3.310 You ever seen blood? 00:13:4.510 --> 00:13:8.230 I feel like I go original, but I want, like, original doughnut. 00:13:8.240 --> 00:13:11.840 But like just cause it's no but like a stable consist.

  • I'd I don't Maybe that's an aspiration to be just like a consistently pleasant or not.

  • But then, like put like a sparkler in it, so it's a bit of more of a surprise.

  • Yeah, there is long on fuel quality behind it all.

  • You know something?

  • Spill it.

  • Tell me what happened in my grandfather and ask you about Marta's character because she does something really weird and funny when she lies.

  • How did you come up with us?

  • So Marta, the character martyr, the an enormous plays she can't lie.

  • Otherwise she will puke. 00:13:57.590 --> 00:14:3.460 So it's kind of like a story thing that I had, where its uses her characters in a really tough position. 00:14:3.460 --> 00:14:22.450 And the only way to get out of that is by lying and something I learned from Vince Gilligan you want to make life is hard, this possible for your characters if you're a writer and so giving her this unmissable very splashy thing where you can't miss it, everyone's gonna know, she tells a lie that seemed like a like a good thing to do.

  • How did you go about giving out the script?

  • Ryan.

  • Did you just give certain cast members their lines to give everyone guessing?

  • Or did you give out the whole script?

  • I gave the whole script everyone.

  • I'm a very trusting person.

  • Maybe Woody to trust.

  • It was like, Yeah, I know, but I felt like everybody kind of needed to know the entire thing coming into it so they knew how their part fit in.

  • So I didn't do any games where I, like, held anything back.

  • It's just like, No, this is a story.

  • We're all telling, Let's let's have fun and do this so nice And you can tell everyone's having fun and doing That's one of the things.

  • I'm really happy about it. 00:14:54.550 --> 00:15:2.710 I feel like you really can tell how much fun everybody's having on screen, and that's a real reflection of how it felt on Set and got Daniel Craig. 00:15:2.720 --> 00:15:7.150 You can really tell how much fun he's, he's he's cutting loose. 00:15:7.160 --> 00:15:8.120 Yeah, I was talking to him. 00:15:8.120 --> 00:15:10.880 He was saying that you actually wrote the accent into the script.

  • Did you envision.

  • You know how he was gonna come out with that accent while you were writing the world?

  • No, I wrote Southern Accent, just kind of vaguely thinking.

  • Well, he'll be a fish out of water amongst all these rich New Englanders.

  • Uh and then Daniel and I collaborated to figure out what the accent would actually, because Southern Accent.

  • There's some in the variations.

  • So many things that could be and we landed on like a Mississippi accent.

  • That's very kind of honey.

  • The sort of play pleasing to listen to, basically, was what we're going for a kind of fog horn leg hole a little bit.

  • Did you were there any inspirations for that?

  • Yeah, he actually, he found we discussed. 00:15:47.470 --> 00:16:1.180 There's this historian Shelby Foote, who was in Ken Burns is Civil War documentary and ah lot, and he has that exact Mississippi accent in a very low register, and it's just the most pleasing thing. 00:16:1.540 --> 00:16:5.880 It's great to put on to fall asleep, too, because it's just like a lullaby. 00:16:5.890 --> 00:16:6.820 Close your sleeve. 00:16:6.830 --> 00:16:12.090 Another thing you notice while watching this film is the sets are so beautiful and intricate, like the one we're sitting in now.

  • Yeah.

  • Do you have a favorite hidden detail?

  • And if so, what is the meaning?

  • Virus.

  • So many things.

  • I mean, even just looking This is actually like This is the real said that, like a picture of the real set that we were we were on was just staring at the books on the shelves.

  • Everyone I love the main character are one of the main characters.

  • Christopher Plummer's character is a mystery writer, and we created all these fake books and as someone who's it grew up loving murder mystery books, creating all these fake titles and book covers.

  • If you can pause the movie when you get it on home video and read all the titles we had fun.

The family gathered to celebrate your father's 85th birthday.
