:33:01
and reached a new land of fantasy
and adventure...
:33:04
that nobody really knows
any of the rules about.
:33:07
So those flying fish are our first clue...
:33:09
that we're now in a new world
where anything can happen...
:33:12
including men making out with fish.
:33:14
- What happened?
- Sinbad saved us.
:33:17
Spike is so happy.
:33:18
He's just so looking forward to the apology
and thank you to come. Poor naive dog.
:33:22
He's got to learn a lot
about human nature, Spike.
:33:25
We redid that shot because originally
we had framed Sinbad's bottom...
:33:29
into the shot,
and of course we can't see that yet.
:33:36
Again, this is where Brad Pitt really excels.
:33:38
Where this could have been
too aggressive... We want him to be a jerk...
:33:42
but you sort of want to follow the jerk,
and not give up on him...
:33:45
and this is a pretty nasty speech,
and Brad does it...
:33:47
with such desperation
that you never really believe he's that angry.
:33:51
He just sounds sort of desperate
and he really nailed this for us.
:33:55
Brad was great. He just wanted to play,
and we would come up with alternate lines.
:33:59
He would come up with alternate lines.
The studio sessions with him...
:34:02
were always about discovery,
and that's the way he wanted it.
:34:05
He was completely open to
playing with the character...
:34:08
so we really were always
uncovering new ideas and new ways...
:34:12
to be fun and clear with Sinbad whenever
we got Brad into the recording studio.
:34:17
We do about 10 sessions or so
with our main stars.
:34:20
We did about 10, maybe 11 with Brad.
:34:22
Each one's only two or three hours.
:34:24
And they're spread out over the course
of about two years.
:34:26
So imagine you're an actor
and over two years...
:34:29
you're doing bits and pieces of the movie.
:34:31
This one with the dog
is one of my favorites.
:34:33
We did a couple of scenes really cheap,
it's like, one, two drawings.
:34:38
Anybody touch the dog but Serguei?
He did every shot.
:34:41
He was the only one to draw the dog.
:34:43
This scene here was originally scripted as.
:34:45
"Thank you. You're welcome."
:34:47
And the interchange between Sinbad
and Marina came out as a big ad-lib.
:34:52
- No problem!
- Don't worry about it!
:34:53
- I won't!
- Good!
:34:54
- Goodbye!
- Bye to you!
:34:56
In that little moment
both of them trying to get the last word in.
