01:18I think the challenge for me personally was with the fact that I was playing a character that essentially is
01:25really helping the audience a lot and asking a lot of questions and enabling those questions to feel real and
01:33organic and be able to make that coming from a very, very honest place.
01:37But when you work with someone like Chris, who's so concerned about every single moment being completely honest as an
01:46actor, that's such a dream.
01:49And so it was a really, really incredible journey.
02:04Yeah, it's just about as physically challenging as anything I've ever done in my life.
02:08I mean, I had to, you know, train.
02:10I was sort of like being a professional athlete for a few months there, which, you know, I played sports
02:16when I was a kid, but not to that degree.
02:20And like I said, the stunt guys were all so cool.
02:24And I mean, it was really just me and stunt guys for a while.
02:28But they all kind of took me under the wing and brought me in and they never were like, oh,
02:32no, you can't do this actor.
02:33They're like, yeah, come on.
02:35If you want to try, let's see.
02:36And and I had a stunt double.
02:40His name is Andy.
02:41Really cool guy.
02:41I was there every day.
02:42And I'm proud to say that he's he's only in one shot of the whole of the whole movie.
02:46And so I don't want to say that I did every single moment because there is like one second.
02:52That's Andy.
02:54And oftentimes stunt guys kind of get don't get credit where credit is due because actors like to say they
03:01did their own stunts when they didn't really.
03:03But I did.
03:04I did the whole thing except for this one shot.
03:15Great.
03:16Yeah.
03:16I don't think you could ask for a better group.
03:18There's a big love affair.
03:20Everyone was just I mean, not only admiring of everyone else, but and mostly, you know, it comes from the
03:26top down.
03:27Just everyone was so happy to be working for Chris, I think, and be working on material that's so challenging
03:31and inspiring and fun.
03:35It was just a pleasure to come to work every day.
03:37Everybody was happy all the time.
03:38There weren't any.
03:39There weren't any.
03:40There weren't any like complaints or freak outs.
03:43You know, like Tom Struthers, who who Joe mentioned is the stunt guy or, you know, Wally Fisher, who's the
03:50cinematographer.
03:50And Chris just like always like there was always such a just a joyous environment, despite like the scale and
04:00the magnitude of what needed to be done that day.
04:02Like incredibly just pleasant might be the term, you know, like just so.
04:09So I think when that environment's being created by by Chris and the lovely people he brings together and he
04:14works with, it creates an energy that is just such a such a joy.
04:19And I think when you watch the movie, you can tell it's being made by people who love what they're
04:24doing.
04:24They're not just doing it for the paycheck.
04:27They're not just doing it because it'll, you know, they'll be famous or whatever.
04:31Everyone's there because they're in love with it.
04:33They're in love with it.
