00:00Yeah, I think you're right. I think that there were, it seemed like the interesting tensions present themselves right there that, as you said, that there's a different kind of threat or different kind of menace if it's two young men kidnapping young women.
00:20But then we kind of play to play with that in an interesting way. So we're not saying anything too specific about who Teddy and Don are, what their proclivities are. And then, you know, also, you know, the character of Teddy is someone who very much very clearly feels the absence of his mother.
00:39And then there might be something interesting in that dynamic. And also, it just, as she does when, you know, she's first kidnapped, which, as she says to Teddy, you know, me being a very high-powered female CEO who's been kidnapped, are the optics of that playing into her?
00:59I think they are, you know, and so that, I think that also plays a bit into their dynamic, right? That, yes, just, yeah, just the optics of a powerful woman, it's a little different, right?
01:14And so all those things felt maybe culturally interesting to explore. But, yeah, maybe also just on a very basic level, I feel like, not only in the original film, but in general, you know, if you were to write a character like this, usually the kind of bog-standard version is, well, high-powered, very powerful CEO, man.
01:37And just soon, maybe just interesting to just, without thinking about it too much, I just kind of, if you flip that, what emerges?
