00:00Is everything that Kevin tells the police completely honest?
00:04Because your performance makes it perhaps debatable.
00:08Oh, thank you.
00:10I will take that as a subtle compliment.
00:14Yeah, I think what's so fun about Tiger Tiger,
00:18what's so fun about this character is like,
00:22you know, obviously the show is a detective show.
00:26Literally the audience has to be a detective
00:28as it's sort of unfolding.
00:29There are characters whose job it is to be a detective
00:32and actors, you know, are in a sense,
00:35all detectives in a way.
00:37And when I first read the script,
00:39it was just such a pleasure to try and imagine
00:44what the circumstances of his life would be
00:46that would bring him into orbit with these other characters.
00:50And I guess that's a roundabout way of saying
00:54he's a peculiar dude.
00:55And I think his truth is not necessarily other people's truth.
01:02And I think he's really flying by the seat of his pants.
01:06I think somebody who would take on this job,
01:08who, you know, is in sort of dire straits and is game,
01:13for as long as he is game,
01:16has probably a weird relationship to the truth.
01:20So I would say yes and no.
01:22I think he's, you know,
01:24what's beautiful about Steve's work is
01:26he writes a lot of characters who can't help but be honest
01:30and who are so sort of naked in their vulnerability.
01:35And, yeah, I think Tiger Tiger is certainly that.
01:41And there's also a nefarious kind of mischievous quality
01:45about him as well.
01:46So I think he's trying to see how much he can get away with.
01:49What was your reaction to the finale ending,
01:53the mystery being resolved?
01:54Yeah, I think it's beautiful.
01:56I think he's, you know, Steve,
01:58I love Steve for so many reasons.
02:01I mean, I feel like we share kind of an interest
02:04in the sort of quiet oppression of everyday life.
02:10I feel like a lot of his stories have to do with male bonding
02:13and the plight of men
02:16and in such a generous and interesting way.
02:24But probably chief among all the things that I love about Steve
02:28is I think he has a knack for taking
02:32what could be a relatively simple story
02:35and putting it in a blender
02:38and telling something, you know,
02:41greater than just the story of what happened
02:44by sort of picking what we think the audience should see,
02:49rearranging the way, you know, events happened.
02:52And so, yeah, I was not surprised,
02:56but I was surprised by what a sort of emotional release
03:02he, the emotional release that he crafted
03:04by the end of the seven episodes.
03:06I think it's really masterful.
03:08I think it's so wild to be a part of a project
03:12where, you know, the first episode
03:17and the last episode were shot
03:19pretty much at the same time.
03:21You know, the whole series was made,
03:24you know, knowing where it's going,
03:28but that sort of time would unfold
03:31for the audience in a different way.
03:33And so, yeah, I just think,
03:35I just think the way that he kept us guessing
03:39is very sophisticated and fun.
03:42And I think, again,
03:44I think it's because he was trying to draw out things
03:49in these characters' lives
03:50that wasn't necessarily about just what happened.
03:53It was kind of the journey of how we got there
03:55is sort of more important
03:57and what it said about us.
04:00And I think that's the way that we got to think it was about to be a piece of it.
04:00And I think that's the way that we got to look back at the end of this relationship,
04:02you know,
