I Never Once Regretted Doing

You're Scrutinized All Through Your Life - You're Scrutinized By Your Family, By Yourself, By Society, And Your Friends In A Certain Way, Shape, Or Form.

At The End Of The Day, It's All One Version Of Telling A Story. I Treated This As If It Was A Two Million Dollar Independent Film.

But As Far As The Character's Psychology Or Emotional Life Goes, I Treat It Just The Same.

Yorgos Lanthimos Said, "what About If He's A Bit Soft?" And I Said, "yeah, I Think You're Right." He Just Comfort-eats A Little Bit Too Much. He's Just Asleep In His Own Life And Has Let Himself Go. And The Mustache, I Don't Know If It Was Him Or I Suggested It. But I Remember My Sister Was Watching Me Eat And She Was Like, "god, Does He Have To Be Fat?" And In Retrospect I Couldn't Think Of David Being Any Other Way Because It Affected The Way I Moved. It Really Did. It Slowed Me Down In A Way That I Felt Was Conducive To Kind Of Tapping Into The Spirit Of The Character.

It May Be Your Own Preordained Prejudice Where You Can't Experience Them Fully. But When You Come Out Of The Cinema Having Felt, Thought, And Experienced Your Way Through Two Hours, That Is A Really Cool Thing.
