People in real life don’t really know where they are going to be either positioning themselves or how they will be saying their words. When people goof during the first take, it usually looks realistic. Download This Image

So whether it’s my writing or not, I still try to work with it in the same way.

Sexual identity is broader than a label. Download This Image

It has its own problems in trying to get at the reality of the situation.

It’s almost like astrology, where if we started on a Tuesday the film will be different than if we started on a Wednesday. Not because of the planets. It’s that sometimes you start with the wrong balance and the whole thing gets messed up.

That way, you can manipulate a character to the other side of the room. But, if they say the wrong thing, it might locate that action in a particular part of the scene. It’s a mechanical need.

From my limited experience, you can really blow test screenings by conducting them in the wrong way.

It’s not as rarefied as a western or a space adventure or a gangster film, but it has its own dynamic.

And it’s probably as wild and wacky as you could imagine. The idea that people have figured it out, I’m not sure if I can fathom that.
