Transcript
00:00I am John Turturro. I play Irving on Severance.
00:04My name is Irving B and I also do Adam Scott's hair.
00:10My name is Mark S. Thank you for doing my hair, John.
00:14I'm Adam Scott and today we'll be watching two of our favorite scenes from season two
00:19of Severance. I do John's mustache.
00:22Erving! Mr. Milchak!
00:34Oh wait! Turn on back, Mr. Milchak!
00:37What are you doing, man? Turn on! He's been an outing the whole time!
00:40How much did she came back?
00:42Erving! Can we freeze for a sec?
00:45Yeah. That is... I haven't seen that in a long time.
00:48Yeah, that's pretty, uh, freaking cold. That is brutal.
00:51You know, all these scenes, it's all the things that lead up to it,
00:54but I was worried about going down those rocks. I was thinking,
00:57well, we just have to slip and someone could crack their head up.
01:01Well, I know that you're always so conscientious of whomever it is you're working with,
01:08but we've also talked a lot about safety on set and making sure that you're not getting hurt.
01:17We did it like in dance steps. I went through it. I was like, okay, now I'm going to go one,
01:22two, and then we'll go back, and then we'll go one, two, three. And then, you know, we were really...
01:28And she could hold on to me, and I could sort of steer her.
01:36Well, I love being outside. I personally, for me, it's a beautiful,
01:41it's a beautiful thing. And because we had never been outside, really, it was really,
01:47it was a treat and a challenge. It was hard. We would take like an SUV up to a certain point,
01:54and then these snow vehicles up the rest of the way, all the way to the top of a mountain.
02:01Yeah. And they just had a series of tents go down to shoot a scene and come back up and try to get
02:06warm in one of the tents. And we did that for like five weeks or something? Yeah, more than,
02:10I think a little. Six weeks? Yeah, we were up there for a while. Always a while. Mark, come on.
02:18Come on, Mark. We did so much of this. Right. Running. Like we were doing this. Why am I not
02:27surprised? Why am I not surprised? I mean... You look like you're in third grade. You know,
02:35like running away. That's right. Like from your, you know, your family. It's like... Right.
02:40Yeah. So it's really... I think everything was, it's such an unstable moment for everybody. Right.
02:46Like these people do not, they're all in like such wholehearted distress. Yeah. I have to say,
02:54some of your acting in that section, but before you run with her, go with her, it's like some of my,
03:02I really feel like you're like on another level. Like you reduce state, like what was left of you.
03:09It's really good. Thanks, man. Really good. I mean, that's like, that's really wonderful acting.
03:17And this shot, the last shot, we did this run. How many times? I don't know.
03:25But we were, Britt and I both were just so wiped at the end of this. And we had to do these looks
03:36while we're running. Right. And we had to do a bunch of different versions of
03:41looking at each other like unsure or like completely in love or, you know, we tried everything.
03:47And so we were, we were wiped out. Right. It was really fun.
