Ecco la nostra intervista a Willem Dafoe, l'attore che interpreta il Professor Albin Eberhart Von Franz in Nosferatu, di Robert Eggers, che racconta di nuovo la fiaba oscura del Conte Orlock, come aveva fatto Murnau prima di lui, nel 1922, e Werner Herzog dopo, nel 1979.
Completano il cast del film Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnson e Bill Skarsgård, quest'ultimo nei panni della creatura mostruosa che dà il titolo al film.
Trascrizione
00:00Cosa credo che le storie vampiriche sono sempre così appellanti per il pubblico?
00:06Sono molto ricche di possibilità.
00:10Credo che la cosa basica è che la parte del vivere è pensare a la morte
00:16e storie dove l'indiettivo viene a visitare il vivere,
00:21questo apre la porta a molte cose.
00:24In portare il Bonne France con il retello di Abraham Van Helsing
00:31hai trovato un'ispirazione in altri attori?
00:37Non ho trovato un'ispirazione in altri attori,
00:41perché ci sono altri film che ho apprezzato,
00:44ma è veramente un nuovo personaggio per me.
00:47È molto specifico come Robert Eggers' scritto.
00:50È molto specifico.
00:52questo è stato molto più basato sulle
00:55e rumanian folklore di vampiriche
01:00in un momento in cui si credo in vampiriche.
01:03Quindi, ha sempre separato,
01:06ha sempre banito la loro cinematro che hanno accumulato
01:10durante i anni di vampiriche
01:13e ha realizzato a un'historica, autentica,
01:19in quello che è praticamente una fantasy o un horror film,
01:23ma c'è un'authenticità molto speciale.
01:27Il carattere Bonfranc è pensato che è iniziato a boxe,
01:31e per questo motivo è alienato dalla comunità.
01:36In un mondo che diceva di essere inclusivo,
01:41do you think that things outside the box is a dangerous thing?
01:47I think it's probably always been a dangerous thing,
01:50because we're social animals,
01:52and when someone challenges the social norm,
01:55that's usually a problem, because it stresses people,
01:58because it challenges their belief,
02:00and not everybody is ready to accept new ideas.
02:03But I think that's the beauty of that character
02:06and the beauty of cinema in general,
02:07because it can make us realize things
02:11that we haven't thought of before.
02:13It can make us dream about how things could be,
02:16not just recognize what is.
02:19Talking about the work with Robert Eggers,
02:22there is something you bring to the character from yourself,
02:27and something you learn from scratch on this set,
02:30because you are so a navigated actor.
02:33you've done so many wonderful things.
02:35Thank you.
02:37You know, it's really the question of how much is you
02:40and how much is around you
02:42doesn't really matter,
02:44because your job is basically to become
02:47and to melt into a situation.
02:49And the beautiful thing about Robert Eggers
02:52is that he works with such detail,
02:54just to walk on his set and to wear the costumes
02:57and to get his light and to be in the shots
03:00that he meticulously designs tells you what to do.
03:04It puts you in a place,
03:05it structures something so you can have an adventure,
03:09that something can happen to you,
03:11that you can be changed,
03:12that you can think outside of your impulses
03:15and outside of your experience.
03:17And, you know, that's the beauty of it.
03:21And I'm not thinking about other actors.
03:23I'm not, you know, I'm doing this stuff.
03:28And where I fit into it,
03:30somewhere I want to...
03:32I'm doing it. I'm using my body.
03:34I'm using my brain to do these things.
03:37But there's a part of me that wants to forget myself
03:41and become someone else.
03:43Maybe that's impossible, maybe that's delusional,
03:46but that's the impulse.
03:48And you've done so much, so many things.
03:52I think about Van Gogh and Green Goblin,
03:55so the span is very wide.
03:57Yes.
03:58There is something you want to do
04:00and you are looking for.
04:03I do, I do.
04:04You know, every time you do a movie,
04:06your job is different, the character is different,
04:08what kind of performance is different,
04:10what kind of movie is different.
04:11That's the pleasure of the profession,
04:13that it's never the same thing.
04:15and I don't think you strain to do, you know,
04:20a variety of things.
04:21I think it happens naturally,
04:23that when you have an appetite,
04:25you have a hunger to do something.
04:27Once that gets, maybe not sated, but engaged,
04:31then maybe you want something else, you know.
04:33It's just like food, you know.
04:35I'm not a person that wants to eat this.
04:37Well, maybe I am.
04:39Spaghetti agnogno, pepperoncino,
04:41and chicorio ogni giro, no, no, no.
04:46No.
04:48But, you know, variety is what keeps you alive,
04:52I think, on some level,
04:53as far as feeding your curiosity
04:56and challenging how you think.
04:58Otherwise, you get stuck and you're always trying to,
05:01you're always defending a method or a way of being.
05:06And, okay, maybe that's a lot of work
05:08and that's dangerous in life,
05:10but when you have this profession where you're protected,
05:12where it's only for a period of time
05:15and you're protected by an agreement
05:18that this is a structured environment,
05:21then it's a beautiful thing
05:23where you consider other ways of being.
05:25that's the most beautiful thing about being an actor.
05:30Thank you. Thank you so much.
05:31Yeah, my pleasure. Bye-bye.
