http://grouchoreviews.com/ Sat, 27 Sep 2008 15:30:40 GMT Film/DVD reviews, interviews and features. http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/262 /interviews/262 [We] talked about Harold and Maude as a tone. Fisher King, I brought that up. And then Alfie and Five Easy Pieces and a few others…We wanted something realistic but funny…moving and emotionally deep. Fri, 26 Sep 2008 14:38:15 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/261 /interviews/261 Sexuality is really a way that people’s souls get expressed...I know that we have a tendency as Americans to sort of not go there, but I’m kind of interested in going there because I think it tells you a lot about someone’s psyche... Fri, 19 Sep 2008 12:07:52 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/260 /interviews/260 He’s very effusive and emotionally open in a way that’s not very masculine. And certainly not British...someone who sort of waves his arms around a lot and clutches his bosom. It’s like he actually thinks his life is a movie. Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:50:47 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/259 /interviews/259 Well, the mythological arc of the saga doesn‘t really continue in these other things...which means we‘re not encumbered by this mythological uber-story of the psychological underpinnings of why somebody turns to be a bad person. Thu, 14 Aug 2008 18:54:14 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/258 /interviews/258 They can‘t run over us if we really want to stand up. So as long as we have our vote, we have some hope. Tue, 29 Jul 2008 15:01:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/257 /interviews/257 Leo: ‘I think living with a gambling addict...whether she had this skill [for lying] before she was married to him all those years ago or not, she certainly developed it over the years and, in fact, we‘ve taught her son to be a pretty handy liar too.‘ Mon, 28 Jul 2008 17:19:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/256 /interviews/256 I lost my virginity to Lorne Greene narrating Lorne Greene‘s Nature Wildlife Theatre. I think he was talking about how bugs gnaw each other‘s heads off while screwing. And here I was, not losing my head at all. Sat, 26 Jul 2008 01:23:35 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/255 /interviews/255 Duchovny: ‘There is a journey to be had. So you either have to start on top or on the bottom for a journey to happen. You can‘t start at the middle...‘ Thu, 24 Jul 2008 01:46:18 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/254 /interviews/254 Carter: ‘There‘s a beef recall. Mulder‘s a cross-dresser. Aah, I‘m not going to tell you, only because you really don‘t want to know...‘ Wed, 23 Jul 2008 17:20:03 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/253 /interviews/253 There’s so many levels to Charles throughout that it’s just…I mean, I would have been an idiot not to have wanted to have taken the role on. Tue, 22 Jul 2008 19:18:07 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/252 /interviews/252 It‘s splitting Q into two parts. Bruce and Lloyd make up one gadget guy, in reality. They‘re just two different parts of one person... Wed, 02 Jul 2008 05:59:13 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/225 /interviews/225 All the actors stayed in one house together, with some of the key crew members and Joe, the director...I decided not to--partly because I‘d been to drama school, and I couldn‘t be bothered with it...I‘ve lived in a madhouse. Tue, 24 Jun 2008 00:00:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/251 /interviews/251 The big myth…I’ve been asked this for fifteen years. And we’ll give it the same answer fifteen years from now. We never think of who our audience is. We always just made the movies we want to see. Mon, 23 Jun 2008 07:41:59 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/249 /interviews/249 I’ve never been much of a car guy myself. And I’ve been known to crash a few. I think I crashed the Batmobile when we were filming...the cars, the costumes, the set dressing…that really helps us, as actors, to get into character. Sun, 15 Jun 2008 19:19:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/246 /interviews/246 Probably the riskiest thing I did was being pulled behind a moving SUV down train tracks. Um, that was a little scary. Mon, 19 May 2008 00:42:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/248 /interviews/248 I watched anything I could get my hands on that Lily Tomlin was in. I‘d watch a lot of Meryl Streep movies. Women who have spectacular timing. Sun, 18 May 2008 02:25:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/247 /interviews/247 I thought it would be interesting to see how he becomes Max. How they met. I know there was one story of how they met, obviously, in the pilot, in 1965, but I thought, ‘Okay, what if we take a little license there and come up with our own...‘ Sun, 18 May 2008 00:52:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/245 /interviews/245 Being allowed to grow up feeling you‘re not being watched, not being tracked and able to do stupid things and screw up, being able to make mistakes, I think, was the key. Being allowed to screw up is wonderful... Thu, 08 May 2008 02:24:00 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/244 /interviews/244 People might give us a chance who wouldn‘t normally come to a Marvel-type film. Tue, 06 May 2008 01:11:30 GMT Peter Canavese http://grouchoreviews.com/interviews/240 /interviews/240 These men are developing--I mean the idea that men say, ‘I love this guy‘--they always say that. ‘He‘s my brother.‘ ‘I will die for him.‘ ‘It was incredibly intimate. It was the most profound relationship of my life.‘ Wed, 12 Mar 2008 00:00:00 GMT Peter Canavese
