:21:01
It's a lot of information
in a short amount of time.
:21:04
Joseph Fiennes is
such a classically trained actor.
:21:07
I think he really knows how to take text...
:21:11
and let it flow and also make
the audience aware of all the subtext...
:21:16
the stuff behind what Proteus says.
:21:17
You can feel a lot of
the challenge and friendship...
:21:20
in these short half dozen lines or so
that Proteus has.
:21:23
Yeah, it's compelling,
it's absolutely compelling.
:21:27
Jim Cummings, wonderful voice actor,
does this gentleman here...
:21:30
and gives him the moral authority to sound
like he really could put these guys in jail.
:21:35
And also the sympathy to know that
he may be condemning...
:21:38
a noble prince to death
by allowing this decision to pass.
:21:42
Release him.
:21:44
The actor Tim West,
a wonderful British stage actor, did Dymas...
:21:48
and once again, talking about authority...
:21:51
You would tell Tim, "Let's have Dymas
sound a little sorry it's happening"...
:21:55
and he would make you weep
for the sorrow of it. Then you'd say.
:21:58
"That's a little too much.
Put in a little authority. "
:22:01
And your hair would blow back
with the authority of it.
:22:03
Tim was capable
of just a massive range of things...
:22:06
in the wonderful performance
he gave to the king.
:22:09
Fabio animated Dymas.
He almost did everything himself.
:22:12
- Fabio did almost every shot.
- Almost every single shot.
:22:16
There's a lovely consistency as a result, too,
how strong Dymas is throughout.
:22:18
This is one of my favorite sequences,
a charming one.
:22:21
We always knew we wanted
the voyage beginning moment.
:22:25
But in most voyage movies...
:22:28
it's characteristic that these are sort of
upbeat and exciting beginnings...
:22:32
but this is a little bit more ominous.
:22:36
Rat, here, swinging and lighting
the lanterns...
:22:38
is just poetic, profound,
and really beautiful...
:22:41
with Wade Huntsman's color keys...
:22:43
giving all this a really luminous quality.
:22:46
The music does a great job of capturing...
:22:48
what you were talking about, Patrick.
It is a voyage...
:22:51
an exciting beginning,
yet there's a little melancholy edge to it.
:22:54
It's conflicted, like Sinbad.
:22:55
Harry Gregson-Williams was our composer
who did absolutely marvelous music here.
:22:59
It's both traditional action-adventure
but really classic.
