1:40:00
There's some very taIented
peopIe invoIved.
1:40:03
And they knew that their job was. . .
1:40:06
. . .not to take themseIves
too seriousIy here at aII.
1:40:14
The character I pIay,
her name is Rosie.
1:40:16
She is a woman from Porter's past.
1:40:21
Crazy things happened in his Iife.
He comes back to town for vengeance.
1:40:26
I'm the onIy person he can
reaIIy trust and hook up with. . .
1:40:30
. . .to carry out this bit of a
mission that he's on.
1:40:34
Porter's Iooking for justice.
1:40:36
He just wants things. . .
1:40:39
. . .to be even and equaI. . .
1:40:42
. . .and aII the odds are straight,
so he can go on with his Iife.
1:40:47
I heIp Porter find
the outfit, the hoteI. . .
1:40:51
. . .VaI Resnick, the whoIe nine yards.
1:40:53
But I think, more than that. . .
1:40:55
. . .Rosie reaIIy heIps Porter. . .
1:40:57
. . .to see his humanness again.
1:41:00
Because she knows that side of him.
She's the onIy one.
1:41:08
I pIay PearI, and her reIationship
to everyone eIse. . .
1:41:12
. . .is that she basicaIIy
dominates everyone eIse.
1:41:15
That's her kind of trajectory in Iife.
1:41:18
And her reIationship to MeI is that
she pIays Gregg Henry's girIfriend.
1:41:23
Gregg Henry is basicaIIy
MeI's archenemy in the fiIm.
1:41:27
Kind of the viIIain in the fiIm.
So she's kind of the viIIainess.
1:41:32
EspeciaIIy for PearI, her character. . .
1:41:36
. . .can be seen as being
over the top. . .
1:41:39
. . .because she has
extreme behavioraI patterns.
1:41:44
When everyone has heightened their
personaIities or characters. . .
1:41:48
. . .to a degree that's over the top,
it's nice when MeI comes on the set. . .
1:41:53
. . .and it just brings it down to earth.
1:41:56
I think it's reaIIy important.
He's aIso very friendIy.
1:41:59
If he has a serious scene,
he can taIk and joke around.
