Movie Dialogue Sample
63
00:02:58,345 --> 00:02:59,961
I don't have a license.
64
00:03:00,055 --> 00:03:01,841
- How old are you?
- Eh?
65
00:03:01,932 --> 00:03:05,470
In the casting for Marisol,
in the case of Mariana,
66
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,050
she was the only one I saw.
67
00:03:07,145 --> 00:03:09,512
She basically submitted a tape,
68
00:03:09,606 --> 00:03:11,267
like, literally recording herself
on an iPhone,
69
00:03:11,358 --> 00:03:12,894
and doing the other roles as well.
70
00:03:12,984 --> 00:03:15,976
Well, as she's talking to Otto,
she's saying her own line and his lines.
71
00:03:16,071 --> 00:03:18,312
I have a driving's permit.
72
00:03:18,407 --> 00:03:20,694
I just never got to the other parts.
73
00:03:20,784 --> 00:03:22,616
How many other parts are there?
74
00:03:23,245 --> 00:03:24,906
[exclaims in Spanish]
75
00:03:24,996 --> 00:03:28,830
And ultimately, there's this connection
between Otto and her,
76
00:03:28,917 --> 00:03:30,533
because they're a mirror to each other.
77
00:03:30,627 --> 00:03:33,665
Because they're a mirror to each other,
they warm each other up, ultimately.
78
00:03:33,755 --> 00:03:35,291
And it's really the heart of the movie.
79
00:03:35,382 --> 00:03:38,374
And it makes you laugh, it makes you cry,
and you can't ask for more.
80
00:03:38,468 --> 00:03:40,129
Hey, Otto. Come in.
81
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:43,087
I can't stand watching one idiot
teach another how to drive. You...
82
00:03:43,181 --> 00:03:46,845
[Garcia-Rulfo] Because everybody's,
like, very offended how Otto is.
83
00:03:46,935 --> 00:03:49,518
And I think Tommy's the only one
that he's like,
84
00:03:49,604 --> 00:03:52,722
"Oh, this man is so nice.
You know, he's so interesting."
85
00:03:52,816 --> 00:03:55,899
Because Tommy is naive, I guess.
86
00:03:55,986 --> 00:03:57,943
It's really, really nice of you.
Thank you.
87
00:03:58,029 --> 00:03:59,144
Mmm.
88
00:03:59,239 --> 00:04:00,821
- [Marisol shouts]
- I tried once.
89
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:04,025
Manuel, who plays Tommy,
90
00:04:04,703 --> 00:04:08,742
he brings so much color and comedy
to the movie and so much heart.
91
00:04:08,832 --> 00:04:10,493
Well, you never know.
92
00:04:10,584 --> 00:04:13,201
A lot of it is off-page
or it wasn't in the script.
93
00:04:13,295 --> 00:04:16,003
As we were working together, Manuel and I,
94
00:04:16,089 --> 00:04:19,582
he brought out so much inspiration
that I just loved working with him.
95
00:04:20,385 --> 00:04:22,547
And now he's moved in.
96
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:27,301
Dave Magee has always been
one of my favorite writers.
97
00:04:27,392 --> 00:04:30,134
His ability to capture comedy
98
00:04:30,228 --> 00:04:33,516
as well as the poignancy
of a story like this,
99
00:04:33,607 --> 00:04:36,065
that he was really
the perfect writer for it.
100
00:04:36,151 --> 00:04:37,516
I'll just give it another try.
101
00:04:37,611 --> 00:04:38,726
Oh, my God.
102
00:04:38,820 --> 00:04:40,731
[Wilson] When Marc came on board
103
00:04:40,822 --> 00:04:43,735
and said that he wanted to do the movie,
104
00:04:43,825 --> 00:04:49,036
it was the beginning
of a truly joyful process.
105
00:04:49,122 --> 00:04:50,863
- Hi, I'm Shari Kenzie.
- Hi.
106
00:04:50,957 --> 00:04:53,949
Frank Fleming, a costume designer
I worked with many times,
107
00:04:54,044 --> 00:04:58,754
and he really reflected the reality
of what these people would wear today
108
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:00,581
and how it would've been
in the flashbacks,
109
00:05:00,675 --> 00:05:03,542
and that was really done beautifully.
110
00:05:03,637 --> 00:05:07,551
And Matthias Koenigswieser, my DP,
and I, worked many times together.
111
00:05:07,641 --> 00:05:11,600
We had many challenges in regard to light
because the weather changes constantly.
112
00:05:11,686 --> 00:05:15,395
And we had a lot of seasons in the movie,
from winter, spring.
113
00:05:15,482 --> 00:05:17,940
So, to find a consistency
between the light was challenging,
114
00:05:18,026 --> 00:05:19,232
to say the least.
115
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,937
Color is where we started, is kind of the,
116
00:05:23,031 --> 00:05:27,116
