00:00There's something about the camera, movies, TV as well, that freezes time.
00:08You see an actor in something and you remember it so vividly, and they remain frozen in that part.
00:15It's extraordinary, it's kind of like they're timeless in that moment.
00:20But this has also the power to unfreeze it and to bring them up to date now.
00:25And it was that power that makes you want to make the film, that you can do that thing,
00:30you can literally take time that's frozen and unfreeze it and bring it forward in time like that.
00:36So that was the reason to make it.
00:59It's not difficult to convince those actors to return to the film.
01:06No, they were very, very keen because the script, I knew the script would attract them.
01:13The script is interesting because it's very unusual for a script to deal with four characters.
01:18You usually get one or two characters, but this is about all four of them.
01:21And I knew their individual journeys would be really satisfying for them to play as actors.
01:27Also, provided it passed the quality threshold, these were characters that they knew how to play.
01:35They were kind of incredibly confident about being able to play them again.
01:39Because they'd done it successfully the first time, the film was a hit, everybody liked them in it.
01:44And then they matrixed in their own 20 years of experience into the mix.
01:49And I think that's lovely for them to be able to play that, you know.
01:52Because you're playing young and old at the same, or young and middle-aged at the same time in a
01:56way.
01:56Because the evidence of the past, you have to, you have to let be there in your current performance, you
02:00know.
