This we shot in a tank, this inner part. And... 21 00:02:17,222 --> 00:02:21,351 It was actually quite difficult, 'cause the boat was moving on a gimbal, 22 00:02:21,434 --> 00:02:23,478 and we had to get all in one shot 23 00:02:23,561 --> 00:02:25,647 in order to stitch it together with the other shots. 24 00:02:26,731 --> 00:02:29,359 And trying to move with an oil-slicked floor. 25 00:02:31,361 --> 00:02:34,364 I think we shot this about how many times? Twenty times? 26 00:02:34,697 --> 00:02:36,407 Quite a few. It was also freezing. 27 00:02:36,491 --> 00:02:39,118 We were also shooting in New Zealand in the middle of winter, and... 28 00:02:39,577 --> 00:02:41,412 because we couldn't have any steam from the water, 29 00:02:41,496 --> 00:02:43,623 it had to be almost ice-cold. 30 00:02:48,336 --> 00:02:50,171 I remember this, what we're about to see, 31 00:02:50,255 --> 00:02:52,507 this part where I fall, was a real fall. 32 00:02:52,590 --> 00:02:54,342 - Yeah, not like-- - Not staged, yeah. 33 00:02:56,803 --> 00:02:57,804 Richard? 34 00:02:58,054 --> 00:03:02,976 Anyways we had to take out the closest side of the boat, is taken out, 35 00:03:03,059 --> 00:03:05,395 so we could actually operate a crane in there. 36 00:03:07,105 --> 00:03:11,860 And the idea of why I wanted to, really I wanted to give you the claustrophobia... 37 00:03:13,111 --> 00:03:16,531 of being stuck in a boat that you don't know if it's going to go down or not. 38 00:03:16,614 --> 00:03:19,117 You have no idea where you are. You have no idea what's happened. 39 00:03:19,826 --> 00:03:22,245 And then, as you'll see later, 40 00:03:23,872 --> 00:03:26,165 it turns into aquaphobia, 41 00:03:26,833 --> 00:03:29,502 when you realize how quiet it is. 42 00:03:34,173 --> 00:03:36,009 There was a little bottle there that passed by, 43 00:03:36,092 --> 00:03:37,760 champagne bottle that cut her leg. 44 00:03:40,763 --> 00:03:41,973 It was added in afterwards. 45 00:03:42,223 --> 00:03:43,391 - Was it? - Yeah. 46 00:03:44,392 --> 00:03:47,937 It's funny. As it passed by, I didn't recall there being any glass 47 00:03:48,021 --> 00:03:50,231 because of the actual safety hazard that that would have been. 48 00:03:50,315 --> 00:03:52,525 Yeah. Yeah, that was not possible, so... 49 00:03:57,071 --> 00:03:58,448 This was a bit of an issue because 50 00:03:58,531 --> 00:04:00,700 we had to get her out of her costume before she went up. 51 00:04:00,909 --> 00:04:02,160 - Yeah. -...so it would match. 52 00:04:03,328 --> 00:04:05,204 - Because this we shot in Fiji. - Yeah. 53 00:04:05,413 --> 00:04:06,915 - Right?

What was it? Winter in New Zealand? 61 00:04:22,722 --> 00:04:23,973 Yeah, it was the middle of winter. 62 00:04:24,515 --> 00:04:25,433 In Auckland. 63 00:04:33,650 --> 00:04:35,860 So, here it is, basically. 64 00:04:36,402 --> 00:04:38,154 I want to be in her perspective, 65 00:04:38,237 --> 00:04:42,241 and discover her situation through her and with her. 66 00:04:52,085 --> 00:04:53,503 No! 67 00:04:53,586 --> 00:04:58,466 I love the way that the film starts because you don't understand anything yet. 68 00:04:58,549 --> 00:05:02,178 And you're thrusted into it, and then you have the entire... The rest of the... 69 00:05:03,471 --> 00:05:08,226 almost two hours to discover the peril that you experience in that one shot. 70 00:05:08,768 --> 00:05:09,811 Yeah, and I think, you know... 71 00:05:09,894 --> 00:05:12,271 It didn't start like this, the script in the beginning. 72 00:05:13,231 --> 00:05:16,401 It wasn't until not even the last draft we didn't have that. 73 00:05:16,609 --> 00:05:19,237 It was when I shot it, 74 00:05:20,613 --> 00:05:26,035 and during the shooting I was 100% sure that that was what we would do. 75 00:05:26,244 --> 00:05:27,829 You know, that would be the beginning. 76 00:05:33,209 --> 00:05:38,423 And then just to have more like questions and answers through stories. 77 00:05:38,506 --> 00:05:40,883 Now we're going back in time.

I did research on documentaries, 197 00:11:41,327 --> 00:11:43,120 and I think you saw some of them. 198 00:11:43,496 --> 00:11:45,956 Deep Water, which is a fantastic one of them. 199 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,584 I can't remember the name of the one about the young girl who sailed 200 00:11:48,667 --> 00:11:50,336 around the world alone at 14. 201 00:11:50,419 --> 00:11:51,545 Oh, I don't remember either, 202 00:11:51,629 --> 00:11:53,839 but she was from the Netherlands, I believe. Right? Holland? 203 00:11:53,923 --> 00:11:56,342 Yeah, Netherlands. and now lives in New Zealand. There's a brilliant... 204 00:11:56,717 --> 00:11:59,136 And partly, the first scene, when you talked to the... 205 00:11:59,804 --> 00:12:03,766 The costume guy's kind of inspired by a scene in that documentary, actually. 206 00:12:03,849 --> 00:12:05,726 But, you know... And once he came to Tahiti. 207 00:12:06,352 --> 00:12:09,105 That was a really remarkable story 208 00:12:09,188 --> 00:12:12,024 about this 14-year-old girl who sailed around the world alone, and... 209 00:12:12,483 --> 00:12:15,694 and he learned a lot about the culture. 210 00:12:15,778 --> 00:12:18,656 And it's kind of a coming of age documentary on a boat. 211 00:12:20,199 --> 00:12:21,492 Yeah, she actually self-filmed. 212 00:12:22,868 --> 00:12:25,287 Self-filmed it. And yeah, amazing. 213 00:12:25,704 --> 00:12:29,041 I can't remember the name, unfortunately, of the documentary. 214 00:12:30,543 --> 00:12:31,544 I wish. 215 00:12:38,175 --> 00:12:39,135 If it's not fun... 216 00:12:41,512 --> 00:12:42,346 then why do you do it? 217 00:12:48,144 --> 00:12:49,019 It's a feeling... 218 00:12:50,020 --> 00:12:52,731 I love this scene. I love how this movie... 219 00:12:53,899 --> 00:12:55,609 It was really important to us when we were... 220 00:12:56,610 --> 00:12:58,446 figuring out how to write it 221 00:12:58,529 --> 00:13:00,906 and how to find the honesty and the truth in every moment, 222 00:13:01,866 --> 00:13:05,619 to witness two people getting to know one another in a very realistic way. 223 00:13:06,328 --> 00:13:08,497 I think it's easy sometimes to lose sight of... 224 00:13:09,582 --> 00:13:12,501 normalcy and how things actually occur in real life. 225 00:13:12,585 --> 00:13:15,921 And this scene reminds me of a very honest conversation, 226 00:13:16,005 --> 00:13:18,257 a candid conversation you would have with someone... 227 00:13:18,883 --> 00:13:23,179 on a first date or a casual hang. 228 00:13:23,804 --> 00:13:24,680 Not at all. Actually... 229 00:13:24,763 --> 00:13:27,057 It felt quite long on the paper, 230 00:13:27,141 --> 00:13:32,146 but when we did it, and especially when I looked at it after the shooting, 231 00:13:32,980 --> 00:13:36,484 I felt it... I needed all of it. 232 00:13:36,942 --> 00:13:38,027 And I love that... 233 00:13:39,153 --> 00:13:41,989 The subtly of, you know, like we saw just before, 234 00:13:42,072 --> 00:13:45,826 seeing in your eyes how you're starting to kind of fall for him. 235 00:13:46,035 --> 00:13:48,162 - Right. - You know, on a real deep level. 236 00:13:48,245 --> 00:13:49,330 And when you saw him first. 237 00:13:49,914 --> 00:13:52,625 And I think that, you know, it's... 238 00:13:53,501 --> 00:13:57,421 Both of your acting is so subtle and great that the scene holds up, 239 00:13:57,505 --> 00:13:59,632 even though it takes a bit of time. 240 00:13:59,715 --> 00:14:01,967 - Quite long? - Yeah, quite long for this kind of... 241 00:14:02,426 --> 00:14:03,511 For the rhythm of the film. 242 00:14:03,969 --> 00:14:07,681 But I think it's essential to give them time to get to know them, 243 00:14:07,765 --> 00:14:08,766 understand him a little bit, 244 00:14:08,849 --> 00:14:11,143 understand a little bit about why people sail around the world. 245 00:14:11,227 --> 00:14:12,978 This shot, right here, 246 00:14:13,354 --> 00:14:16,690 was the scariest moment for me filming, of the entire movie. 247 00:14:17,233 --> 00:14:18,484 That shot was a helicopter shot. 248 00:14:18,567 --> 00:14:22,238 I was actually sailing the boat, and the marine coordinator was in the cabin, 249 00:14:22,571 --> 00:14:25,407 and I wasn't able to hear what he was saying and how to direct me. 250 00:14:25,824 --> 00:14:27,284 I could just see Sam at the front of it. 251 00:14:27,368 --> 00:14:29,870 And I was telling myself not to crash the boat. 252 00:14:29,954 --> 00:14:31,247 Look at how far it's heeling over. 253 00:14:31,664 --> 00:14:33,040 And when the helicopter went by, 254 00:14:33,123 --> 00:14:35,793 the wind from the copter would rush into the sails and... 255 00:14:36,168 --> 00:14:37,461 tip us over even more. 256 00:14:38,003 --> 00:14:41,257 It was definitely the scariest movie moment for me. 257 00:14:41,507 --> 00:14:44,093 I remember you shouting, "I don't have--" 258 00:14:44,176 --> 00:14:46,303 -"I can't do this!" -"I can't control, I can't do this!" 259 00:14:46,387 --> 00:14:49,932 It was probably the only time you did that, you know. 260 00:14:50,266 --> 00:14:51,517 It was quite scary. 261 00:14:51,809 --> 00:14:56,897 Yeah. And this cut, the cross from the wide to the close is something that... 262 00:14:57,648 --> 00:14:59,024 we wanted to make those... 263 00:14:59,984 --> 00:15:02,570 going from the nicest into the most horrific moments. 264 00:15:02,653 --> 00:15:04,947 So, you jolt the audience a little bit, you know, and... 265 00:15:05,864 --> 00:15:08,284 keep them on their toes as you're going between the stories. 266 00:15:21,422 --> 00:15:23,716 Mayday, mayday. This is the sailing Hazana. 267 00:15:26,594 --> 00:15:31,140 All the kind of details about how far they were and exactly where they... 268 00:15:31,223 --> 00:15:33,559 This is all taken from her logbooks. 269 00:15:34,018 --> 00:15:37,187 So, it's very precise about where the real Tami, 270 00:15:38,439 --> 00:15:41,900 where she had them put down the marks. 271 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,328 The boat itself is pretty close... 272 00:15:52,411 --> 00:15:54,788 It's not exactly the same boat as the real boat, 273 00:15:55,289 --> 00:15:59,084 because they didn't exist. We couldn't find a version of that boat. 274 00:15:59,418 --> 00:16:00,836 Not in that part of the world. 275 00:16:01,045 --> 00:16:03,756 There were some boats in Europe that had a similar type. 276 00:16:04,590 --> 00:16:06,842 But we copied pretty accurately. 277 00:16:06,925 --> 00:16:10,429 It's a slightly bigger boat than the one that we're on in reality. 278 00:16:10,804 --> 00:16:11,722 Right. 279 00:16:16,685 --> 00:16:18,812 And all of this, the puking, the... 280 00:16:19,063 --> 00:16:23,233 This is all taken directly from her book and the experience that she detailed... 281 00:16:24,318 --> 00:16:25,986 when she came to. 282 00:16:27,696 --> 00:16:30,908 Yeah. And she found out, actually, after she came to land... 283 00:16:30,991 --> 00:16:33,535 Maybe a spoiler, but I guess most people have seen the film, 284 00:16:33,952 --> 00:16:36,288 watching the commentary-- 285 00:16:36,622 --> 00:16:37,956 - Hopefully. - Hopefully. 286 00:16:38,415 --> 00:16:41,835 That she actually was out for, I think, 27 hours. 287 00:16:41,919 --> 00:16:42,878 She didn't realize that. 288 00:16:42,961 --> 00:16:46,632 She didn't know she was out for 27 hours until she got to land, 289 00:16:46,715 --> 00:16:51,011 and they were able to cross-reference when the hurricane passed through, 290 00:16:51,261 --> 00:16:53,347 and how many days it took her to get to Hawaii. 291 00:16:53,430 --> 00:16:54,848 Yeah. So, there was a day missing, 292 00:16:54,932 --> 00:16:57,309 and realized instead of having been out for three hours, 293 00:16:57,393 --> 00:16:58,602 what she thought she had been, 294 00:16:58,686 --> 00:17:01,772 she was actually out for... 27. 295 00:17:08,987 --> 00:17:10,030 Where are you taking me? 296 00:17:12,991 --> 00:17:14,368 This was an amazing day. 297 00:17:14,827 --> 00:17:18,080 The crew and some locals carved out that path, right? That didn't exist? 298 00:17:18,163 --> 00:17:20,457 No, that path is shot in a totally different place. 299 00:17:20,541 --> 00:17:23,794 So, it connected with this. No, that path existed. 300 00:17:23,877 --> 00:17:24,753 It did exist? 301 00:17:24,837 --> 00:17:27,297 It's a way up, but it's a very different spot from this, so... 302 00:17:27,756 --> 00:17:32,094 So, you were there for sure. It's just probably confusing. 303 00:17:32,177 --> 00:17:35,305 But it was on the island where we shot a lot of the... 304 00:17:36,056 --> 00:17:38,475 Yeah, Yanuca?

I think that really explores, you know, human nature. 991 00:53:56,902 --> 00:53:58,361 And, oftentimes, those are the moments 992 00:53:58,445 --> 00:54:00,906 that you share the most intimacy with your partner. 993 00:54:01,531 --> 00:54:05,535 Yeah, I didn't feel like we needed that, the sexuality. 994 00:54:05,869 --> 00:54:07,495 I think that's kind of... 995 00:54:07,829 --> 00:54:10,123 That's another really good makeup. 996 00:54:10,206 --> 00:54:11,041 Yeah. 997 00:54:11,124 --> 00:54:13,710 But also the makeup on your and his hands, and... 998 00:54:14,336 --> 00:54:16,338 And I thought it was amazingly done. 999 00:54:16,421 --> 00:54:18,548 There's something.

So, it was... 1378 01:13:19,354 --> 01:13:20,939 It wasn't easy even though it wasn't... 1379 01:13:21,398 --> 01:13:24,818 Because, you know, people might think, "I thought they shot it all real." 1380 01:13:24,902 --> 01:13:28,197 But if you would have shot this real, we wouldn't have brought anybody back home. 1381 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:32,034 Yeah, and insurance wouldn't have let even stunt men do this, right? 1382 01:13:32,117 --> 01:13:35,412 No, no. They wouldn't even do it over 3O knots, you know. 1383 01:13:35,496 --> 01:13:37,873 And I wanted to shoot as much in weather as I could, 1384 01:13:38,332 --> 01:13:40,709 and we shot all the weather we could get. 1385 01:13:41,168 --> 01:13:45,714 But you wouldn't be allowed even to stand on the dock in this kind of weather, so... 1386 01:13:46,381 --> 01:13:47,216 So there's no way. 1387 01:13:47,549 --> 01:13:52,888 But again, you know, I think they managed to do a great job on the visual effects, 1388 01:13:53,806 --> 01:13:58,811 and also the way it's combined together and worked. 1389 01:13:58,894 --> 01:14:03,023 And in my experience, you really need to push it when you're shooting it. 1390 01:14:03,107 --> 01:14:06,527 It's not... You have to do everything you can to get it in camera. 1391 01:14:07,152 --> 01:14:09,905 - You know, like-- - And not depend on visual effects. 1392 01:14:12,324 --> 01:14:13,408 It's amazing, isn't it? 1393 01:14:14,243 --> 01:14:17,663 How just a little sheet can make the whole world feel like it disappears. 1394 01:14:20,332 --> 01:14:21,166 Do you see? 1395 01:14:21,917 --> 01:14:24,795 There's a little backstory of Tami's childhood. 1396 01:14:27,339 --> 01:14:28,382 When I was little... 1397 01:14:30,008 --> 01:14:32,886 my dad used to come visit at my grandparents' house. 1398 01:14:34,263 --> 01:14:37,266 We never knew when he was coming, he would just show up. 1399 01:14:38,225 --> 01:14:39,977 - When he arrived... - We thought about for a while, 1400 01:14:40,060 --> 01:14:41,812 maybe to shoot some of this, 1401 01:14:41,895 --> 01:14:45,899 but then I felt it would complicate the movie and take it on the wrong track. 1402 01:14:46,275 --> 01:14:48,193 To shoot like the flashback? 1403 01:14:48,402 --> 01:14:50,154 The flashback of her small, doing this, 1404 01:14:50,237 --> 01:14:52,823 but then I felt, you know, that would break the perspective. 1405 01:14:53,949 --> 01:14:56,869 I allowed for this only kind of two times, 1406 01:14:58,328 --> 01:15:01,248 and to stay in her kind of vicinity. 1407 01:15:03,167 --> 01:15:04,126 Close to her. 1408 01:15:04,209 --> 01:15:05,377 Starting when I was about 10... 1409 01:15:07,296 --> 01:15:11,633 'Cause flashbacks are delicate.
