00:14I'm Max. I'm an explorer. And I travel a lot. I travel by sea. I used to travel by air.
00:22Were you the king where you came from?
00:24Yeah. Yeah, for 20 years.
00:26Oh, wow.
00:27That's impressive.
00:28That's incredible, right?
00:30Wow.
00:30Sorry we were going to eat you. We didn't know you were king.
00:36Wild Things was my first big, big book. And there was a big risk because as it was being
00:44done, people at the house already were shaking their heads like they're doing with you now.
00:52Yeah.
00:53And the book was banned and it was terrible reviews.
00:57No positive reviews?
00:58No. It became a very famous book. But it took about two years before librarians began to
01:04see that all the kids were taken out of the library over and over and over again.
01:08About four years ago when I started on it, I just had an idea, you know, how to make my
01:13version of it. But I definitely didn't want to ever do it unless Maurice was comfortable
01:19with it.
01:19What I've seen him do, he's turned it into his without giving up mine, but embodying mine
01:26with Spike Jonze. And astonishing me at how it maintains its peculiarness as a work. What
01:34flows through the whole thing is such a strange feeling. I've never seen a movie that looked
01:38or felt like this. He said from the beginning, you have to make it dangerous, make something
01:44that respects kids and doesn't talk down to them. Or if not, it wasn't worth doing.
01:49There will be controversy about this. But the film has an entire emotional, spiritual, visual
01:58life, which is as valid as the book. He's done it like me, whether he's done it or not. But
02:06in a
02:06more brilliant, modern, fantastical way, which takes nothing from my book, but enhances, enriches my book.
02:16Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
02:25oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
02:25oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
02:25oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
02:26oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
02:27oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
02:30Grazie a tutti.
