![]() The stuff with the girls has been pretty special.īut that relationship with LaMonica is one of my favorite elements of this entire thing. And I had a scene with Raphaela Renkusi that was equally powerful and touching to me. You know, I've got a scene with Isabel May coming up and I'm so looking forward to that, it's one of my favorite scenes in the picture. We had a really interesting, very short scene together that stuck with me. Came over and sat on my lap, and whispered in my ear. You know, there was a girl named Stephanie Nur that came in for two days when we were in Fort Worth. I think I could safely say that because I've heard people tell me that over the years, actors tell me that.īut to be honest with you, I think my favorite stuff is the stuff I'm doing with the girls on the show. You know, it's the ultimate thing, that the ultimate male fantasy in some way for an actor is to play a cowboy. I somehow think apart from all the action and the horseback riding and the shooting and all the obvious stuff that guys or men might say, oh, wow, I wish I could do that. Shea is so many different things to so many different people. The dialogue's very spare unless he goes into one of his arias that he writes for some of us along the way. He is very poetic in his writings and very spare. Taylor's work as a writer is brilliant, as far as I'm concerned. The thing about this project, again, is the screenplay. And I worked on another Western that a guy named Kevin Jarre wrote and started out directing, but his screenplay is what got everybody to come on board. It's massive.Īnd I think the mass of it is the thing that makes it most different. We're going to finish on the Oregon coast, mid-January. We've been all over the state of Texas where working again right now. I've never worked on a show that had six cameras running at the same time. I mean, they've got a massive amount of money, which brings a massive amount of moving parts, whether they're mechanical or human, it's the biggest I've ever worked on. I mean, this is the biggest thing I've ever worked on, whether it's a Western or a contemporary film or television show. I think number one because of the girth of it, for starters. So how would you say this 1883 compares or differs from the Westerns you've been in before? You're clearly not a newcomer to Westerns. And he's, I think by the end of this thing, he's pretty beat up and makes a decision that he makes in the end of the film. I think there's an upcoming scene that I've got with Elsa, the Elsa character in which Shea talks about going to the ocean and the reason that he's going.īut I just think that having that responsibility of taking care of all those people, and it's also the things that leads to more tragedy in his life as they drop off along the way, he loses them. I think that's what really keeps him going, that and his relationship with Thomas, his compadre. He wants, he's a heading for the ocean, which is a bizarre thing for some guy starting in Fort Worth, Texas that he's driven, and he wants to get there. Apart from that, Shea's on a personal journey to get himself to Oregon.Īnd I won't tell you why, but that's why he's going there. I think, on some level, one of the things that keeps him going, and I think maybe it's one of the reasons that he has taken on this responsibility of being this wagon boss, is to get these people to Oregon. So what keeps him going when life is so hard? Shea's just had so much tragedy in his life, and he is overcoming so much. It's like a bunch of gypsies.īut I love Tim and Faith, and I think the work they've done is just incredible. You get to have these relationships that sometimes they transcend the film, and they go on afterward, and sometimes when they're over, that's it, you don't see them again. We've been hanging out a lot off the set as well as on the set, and it's one of the great gifts of being in this business and doing films. ![]() I think there are two or three women that are better horse people than any of us, but they're lovely people. Tim, I think, probably is the best horseman amongst the group, in terms of the men. And I think they've gotten more incredible with every episode. And I think they're both incredible in it. Well, they pulled it off that's how I feel about it. You know, I think there was a certain contingent of people that thought, hmm, these country-western singers, now they're going to be actors. What was it like working with Tim and Faith, who've never acted together before?
