00:00What were your thoughts when this was the next project Maggie wanted to do?
00:05You know, I took it really seriously because my wife has a different tone
00:11that happens when she really intends to do something, and this had that.
00:16And to be honest, to make anything like this, as anyone who's ever done it knows,
00:21is like Herculean.
00:25And someone told me the other day that,
00:28I don't know if this is true, and maybe you should check it out.
00:31She's either the first woman to have a movie on IMAX,
00:34or one of the first women to have a movie on IMAX.
00:37And I think just like big stories are also important, not just the small ones.
00:45Definitely. I mean, we'll fact check that, but I think either way, all of this is so impressive.
00:49I think it's true. I think it's true.
00:51I'm sure. You said to check, so we will, but I believe you.
00:54And so this was kind of a family affair between you, Maggie, Jake, and also your daughters.
00:58What was that like on set?
01:00I mean, it feels very familiar to me because I'm the one that's worked with every family member multiple times,
01:05including Jake maybe six or seven times, Maggie's mother.
01:10Maggie and I have worked together many, many times, theater and film and all kinds of things.
01:15And we all kind of like it that way.
01:18I mean, I love working with new people, but I also love working with people I love.
01:24How would you describe the dynamic when you guys work together?
01:28No bullshit.
01:31Just like we are as a couple.
01:33I mean, I'm sure anyone who's ever been with anybody for like 20-something years,
01:38whatever we've been together for, can attest to is you cut to the chase.
01:44So a lot of times on films, you know, you have to kind of cushion the news.
01:51And we don't have to do that with each other.
01:53Sounds very efficient.
01:55We're very efficient.
01:57I don't even think we need words, actually.
02:00You're just communicating telepathically.
02:01Yeah, I think it's all telepathic.
02:03Amazing.
02:03And obviously there's a really rich, lush, fantastical world built in this film.
02:08What do you think people will be most impressed by?
02:12The love story.
02:13I think that's the most unexpected part of it.
02:15You know, I mean, I've seen a lot of monster movies.
02:19And I've never seen one that's like a love story for the ages, you know,
02:25where these two people are meant to be together for multiple lifetimes.
02:29Is that what you think brings people back to the story of Frankenstein and the Bride
02:34or just monster stories in general?
02:35I mean, I think one of the things about Frankenstein that keeps people coming back
02:39is like, it's a great story about identity.
02:42Who are we?
02:43Are we our arm?
02:45Are we our arm and our torso?
02:46Or what makes me me?
02:48How am I me?
02:49What is that?
02:51And where did I come from?
02:52And where am I going?
02:53And kind of, it's quite Greek.
02:59That's right.
03:00This is a way that we see people coming next to the story.
03:01Five, five, three, four, five, clad 분.
03:02Five, six, five, five, six, you know.
