00:00Murray, you are so incredible and terrifying in this role.
00:03I have to ask about one of the most memorable scenes,
00:06which, of course, is Dennis taking a call from the police in episode three.
00:10Sir, we will need to sit down and talk.
00:12You may have some information that could be vital.
00:19I'm very sorry, sir.
00:23What can you tell me about filming just that mass roll performance in the car
00:27and what that act told you about Dennis?
00:29That's kind of a dreamy scene on paper for an actor.
00:32I mean, also terrifying because he's like, oh, my God, okay,
00:35I've got to do this thing now.
00:36But to basically do this, doing two things at the same time,
00:44is such a great sort of challenge.
00:46One of the kind of key things that I was working with with Dennis,

00:57a memoir written by this woman who is a sociopath,
01:02sort of dispelling myths around it and explaining what that means.
01:07Sociopaths become expert mimics.
01:09He's the ultimate actor here.
01:11You know, he's doing one really intense task while dealing with a really intense phone call,
01:18but he knows how to, he's already compartmentalizing all these sort of,
01:23you know, emotional states that he's bringing to these situations that he's in.
01:29So then the challenge is to just kind of like do both at the same time.
01:34But because he's not, you know, at his core really feeling these things,
01:39he's acting them, then it kind of gave me a freedom to be like,
01:42okay, I'm just going to, as an actor, just go for it.
01:44And if it doesn't feel authentic, that's okay.
01:47So then the other thing is,
