00:24It's her coming into the rehearsal room, and she, like, had her stuff.
00:27I don't know.
00:28I'm just holding her bags, and she was coming in.
00:30She was telling some story about what had happened to her that day, or something.
00:33It was a very funny story about her past.
00:35And it was just, like, this ball of energy and charisma, and just, like, a lack of self-consciousness,
00:43you know, which I assumed would come with anyone who was that big of a star.
00:47That was my first memory.
00:48I'm trying to remember the first time I met Florence.
00:51One fun fact is that Florence and I went to the same elementary school, the same primary
00:55school.
00:56We call it in England.
00:57It may be a decade apart, but it's a very tiny school in Spain, so it's a grand day.
01:04She was very involved, but also let us do our own thing.
01:08I think one of the main things I took away from her, really, is just what a good person
01:12she is.
01:13She's a genuinely caring, compassionate, open individual.
01:18She's just perfectly charming.
01:20Eric Pearson manages to do the, what's really, sometimes you have people who are great at plot,
01:25story, and some people who are great at character, and some people who are great at comedy.
01:29And he does all three, all at the same time, in a blink of an eye.
01:33He's one of the most extraordinary writers that I've had a chance to work with.
01:37What do you think is he?
01:39Ultimately, if people just want to watch Barak, they go watch a documentary or something on
01:42him.
01:42You know, I think what the point of making a drama is to get to know Barak, get to see
01:48the cracks on the, you know, get to see the clay feet of our gods, so to speak.
01:52And so it's challenging, but I've got such great play partners that, you know, I don't know.
01:59I'm just having the best time with it.
02:01I'm really enjoying it.
02:04I actually remember shooting the last day with Scarlett on the first block.
02:10And she turned to me and goes, well, see for reshoots in January.
02:15And I was like, well, what do you mean?
02:17But obviously she's done it so many times.
02:18She knows that one way or another, there's going to be reshoots in a few months.
02:22So I had kind of like prepared for it.
02:24And then, so then I get a call from my agent saying, yep, they're going to do some reshoots.
02:28And, you know, then trying to figure out the flights from, you know, Toronto to LA
02:34and length of beard and all that kind of stuff.
02:37Mason's hair is shorter than Luke's hair.
02:42And when both of them are longer than Barak's hair.
02:44So, so yeah, there's beardage to be able to figure out the,
02:49there's the intricacies of filmmaking.
02:51Well, look, crispy seaweed is a go-to snack of mine.
02:59I mean, the worst thing about film sets though,
03:01there's so much sugary goodness and it's hard to avoid.
