00:00I think if you can cling to hope, hope is something that can carry you through, always.
00:16Abate Faria gives two things to Edmund.
00:20He gives him hope and knowledge.
00:23In New York, you know, what's more important in life?
00:26Hope or knowledge?
00:27Isn't it the same?
00:30No, but I think what you at least learn from this story and what is so great about it,
00:36it is a revenge story, one of the greatest revenge stories,
00:39but also it tells you somehow that revenge itself does not make you happy.
00:46And especially in the case of Edmund,
00:49that because he has spent so much time thinking about how to revenge,
00:54but also when he finally is able to do it, at the end of the day it doesn't make him
01:00happy.
01:00He feels empty and he feels, he has eaten hope from the inside.
01:05And he's not able to love anymore.
01:09I'd say knowledge because I don't have any of that.
01:13I have a lot of hope in life, I think.
01:16No, I think if you can cling to hope, hope is something that can carry you through, always.
01:24Knowledge without hope is useless, I think.
01:28You have to hope, you know, you have to have hope.
01:32We all have to have hope, but a lot of people don't have knowledge.
01:38It's interesting you were speaking about revenge, but another interesting side of this story is envy.
01:47Because Edmund suffers a lot for years because another man is envious about him.
01:54And today we don't need to put people in jail, but we can so easily find dirt on somebody and
02:04destroy his or her reputation.
02:07So is this an interesting aspect of the story that is still very contemporary?
02:11It's so easy to destroy someone nowadays even more.
02:16Yeah, I think there are so many parts of the story that are relatable.
02:22Revenge being one, I think everyone has seen injustice served in some capacity in their lives.
02:29But envy has always been an issue.
02:33Love is another subject that this story touches on and hope being another.
02:38But I feel like the themes of this epic tale are still very, very much present in today's society and
02:49very important.
02:50And I think everyone can relate to some aspect or some...
02:54I mean, what I love about this story is that not only Edmund's story of revenge,
03:00and it also tells the story of so many of the other characters and their worlds and their livelihoods.
03:09And I think everyone is able to understand the reasons as to why everyone makes the certain decisions through this
03:16story.
03:18And I think everyone can sort of empathise or sympathise with each of the characters for different reasons.
03:23So it's very prominent in today's society, envy.
03:27And I think that's why this story will get told and told and told and told again.
03:33It's a timeless, timeless piece.
03:36Yeah, and also, I mean, in today's, especially young people,
03:39because this story really reflects on different aspects in life, as you say, love and revenge and envy.
03:46But what I think is a big problem, especially by young people today, is that they have never time,
03:51or they don't give themselves time to reflect.
03:54It's always about watching something.
03:58They're distracted by this bloody media, social media.
04:02And I think this story at least also tells something about it's important to reflect,
04:09it's important to see things in the overall perspective.
04:14So that's the depth, all the layers into it,
04:18which if you are not focused on what's going on in the present time of your life,
04:23you have never time to reflect on anything.
04:26I was working with Jeremy Irons because in this movie,
04:30he almost is like a Jedi master.
04:34I don't know. It's like Yoda or Gandalf.
04:36Did you pick something from his knowledge for your work?
04:42I mean, you can't help but be in awe of Jeremy Irons.
04:46I mean, just the energy.
04:48I think what I loved and enjoyed so much was that by the time that Jeremy joined the car,
04:55I officially kind of started filming.
04:57We were already four months, I think, into the process.
05:01So I think by that point I was exhausted and I was very tired
05:05because it had been a very laborious and difficult shoot.
05:09And we sort of bounced around a few different locations
05:11and one of the most incredible locations.
05:15But by the time we got to Malta and Jeremy arrived,
05:18he just brought such an energy and vitality and joy and play.
05:27And I think it shows the second that his character enters the screen,
05:32through his very distinctive voice through the wall that you hear,
05:36you know, we meet him first.
05:38But from the second he comes into my jail cell,
05:42he just is effortlessly cool and playful.
05:48And I think finding that in an actor and watching that
05:53with someone as experienced and, you know, talented as he is,
05:58it's just a blessing for an actor, for a much younger...
06:03But for someone who, you know, I've always looked up to him
06:07and having the opportunity to see the brilliance firsthand
06:11was just a blessing.
06:14And finally I have to ask, this moustache that you have today
06:18means that we will see you in the Peaky Blinders movie?
06:21I'm not, no.
06:23No, this is for me.
06:25But no, I'm very excited to watch whatever they're creating.
06:30But no, I'm...
06:31As far as I'm aware, I'm not coming back.
06:34Ok, thank you so much.
06:35Thank you.
06:51Yeah, thank you.
06:52I just started...
06:57ج embrul!
06:57I was very excited!
06:59Look at...
07:01Awesome!
