This has me thinking about the production of really serious material. I’d imagine people are still enjoying their jobs and everything, but does the mood get all down when sitting a serious scene and having to put actors through their paces for multiple retakes? I’d have to imagine certain scenes would just be super emotionally taxing for the whole crew.
Imagine messing up halfway through a terrible rape scene
Multiple takes yes. Screw ups yes. But there’s no hidden blooper reel.
Are you doing the Louie CK bit? (Louie? Louis? I can't ever keep it straight)
Where he talks about how somewhere there 100% exists a test reel of dozens of little girls trying out for the "
girl in the red dressgoodbye girl" part. Dozens of little girls brought or dragged by their parents to a casting call hoping to get their darling into the business. Dozens of little girls saying that line ("goodbye Jews") emphatically, petulantly, sweetly, angrily, monotone-ly, loudly, softly...Those are two different roles.
Red dress was a victim, “goodbye girl” was a non-Jewish character celebrating the purge of the Warsaw(?) ghetto.
Never seen that bit. I was never a fan of his, even before he got canceled
The girl in the red dress was a Jew, right?
Or, did you mean the children actors, in general? I may have misunderstood.
I think I conflated red dress girl with goodbye girl, as Porrada clarified.
Not in the way you're implying.
I doubt that.
You doubt mistakes were made in filming Schindler's List?
