00:00La storia è molto viscerale, molto intensa. Quali sono stati gli spunti che hanno portato alla nascita di questo tipo di racconto?

00:30Il risultato di un'immagine che si è un'immagine di un'immagine di un'immagine di un'immagine di religione.

01:00in nature and in those kind of landscapes.

01:04So it was thinking about the parable of the Good Shepherd

01:08and what would happen if, when he's going to rescue this lost soul,

01:12someone came and massacred his flock.

01:14And then there were these real instances in Northern England

01:18where gangs were coming in and cutting the hind legs off sheep

01:21and just letting them bleed out.

01:23And that brutality felt like it was a real sort of...

01:27pushing that into the story would be really visceral.

01:31Why would people, you know, the lack of sort of humanity

01:35and that was very interesting to me.

01:37La natura, questa natura splendida,

01:40ma apparentemente difficile in cui ambientato il film,

01:44modifica in qualche modo il comportamento

01:47e la personalità di queste persone così ruvide?

01:51I think so.

01:52And I think there's, you know,

01:55there's a strange disconnect because we, you know,

01:59as human beings, we've spent centuries living in the land

02:04and having a very close relationship with nature

02:07and how we feed ourselves and how we shelter.

02:10And now we kind of put concrete over it and we build things.

02:14and we're sort of hiding, you know,

02:18our connection with the earth is really disconnected.

02:22But also, you know, in this country, in the UK

02:26and all over Europe, there's such a long history

02:29and there's so much has happened.

02:32And I feel like it lives and it's retained in that environment.

02:38And so there's, I think when we walk into that space,

02:41we can feel a really strong connection.

02:43And so where we, where we, where we brought up in, you know,

02:48I feel like I, when I'm walking in Cumbria,

02:52that's when I'm at my most peaceful and centered.

02:57Anywhere else in the world just doesn't feel the same.

03:00and I feel, it feels like home.

03:03E invece una domanda per Colm.

03:05Ray è un personaggio che rimane defilato nella storia

03:09ma sembra avere una grande influenza

03:11su quello che chiaramente in primo luogo fa il figlio

03:14però poi su tutti gli altri eventi a cascata.

03:17Qual è il suo drive?

03:19Qual è la cosa che muove il comportamento di Colm?

03:23Come, the history.

03:26The history of, like, his own personal history,

03:29his own and the struggles.

03:32He's had.

03:35I think he feels, he feels a failure in terms of,

03:38you know, he feels victimized.

03:43He lost his wife.

03:45He had to raise his son .

03:49Well, not raise him.

03:50era già un ragazzo, ma il ragazzo di una madre è sempre stato lì, e anche i suoi

04:02fai, inizialmente, era chiaro, magari era un attimo inizio di script, ma Ray voleva

04:11a acquire that farm that Jack now lives on. Ray wanted to buy that farm and failed and

04:24then this guy gets it and then it becomes a competitive thing and then the girlfriend

04:31of his son marries into that and he's surrounded by these frustrations and that builds and

04:41builds and I think he's, we never discussed this actually but I'm not sure, when he said

04:47bring me his head, I don't think he really needs that, literally, but that is that frustrations.

04:57Yeah exactly, yeah and so you know when Chris brings me there I'm shocked by that you know

05:09and he's like, me too. Yeah yeah right, right. It was very. So yeah I mean he's driven by

05:17so many things you know it's a wonderful complex character in that way. Thank you, thank you

05:23very much. You're very welcome.

05:25Thank you.

05:27Thank you.

05:31Thank you.

05:33Thank you.
