"Silence is torture"
— What was the most difficult thing about working on this picture?
- Silence. Silence for a film actor is torture. An actor needs dialogue, an actor needs to rely on a partner, it’s not for nothing that we use the characteristic: he is a generous partner or, on the contrary, he is greedy, constantly pulling the blanket over himself. But even with a greedy partner it is much easier to work than alone - there is no one to test your line or gesture on. And in this film, three quarters of the time I'm alone. I need to dissolve in nature, I need to have a silent conversation with the snow, with the trees, with the animals, with the moon in the sky. It's terribly hard.
And they sailed for a short time, but happily: “Titanic” became a breakthrough for both DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. Still from the film
— You are literally repeating the words of Robert Redford - he also described the filming of the film “Never Fades Hope,” in which he drifted alone on the ocean.
“So I’m doubly right.” If such a powerful actor as Redford complained about the difficulties of loneliness, then I’m not ashamed to admit it. My emotional heaviness was also aggravated by purely physical pain: the cold was terrible - my fingers were freezing, my cheeks were freezing, my ears were freezing... The frost was so exhausting that by the end of the shooting day I simply had no strength. Iñárritu is a very tough director: he despises the green screen, working with which allows you to subsequently superimpose computer graphics on the image, he uses composite shots very carefully. If he had been born half a century earlier, he would have made a remarkable career in Italian neorealism. He made me eat raw bison liver, and I must admit that it was not sashimi at all, he made me “sleep” in the carcass of a real beast. I honestly admit: this was the most difficult project in my film career. Still, I'm happy. First of all, I survived (laughs). Secondly, I worked with such a wonderful director as Alejandro. And, most importantly, I starred in a real American epic. Nowadays, such films are quite rare: the detail, development of characters, and the epic nature of the narrative are intercepted by series that have long grown out of the pants of their younger brother - big cinema. And the older brother is left with broad strokes and maximum saturation of every minute of screen time. There is no time for epic here; His Majesty, action, reigns over us.
- But by epic it is customary to understand not only a long, but also a large-scale history.
- She is like that! And its scale lies in the fact that nature in it is not the scene of action, but a full participant in it. An active participant, by the way, is no less active than people. This participant lives his own life, experiences his own dramas, and human intrusion is not always welcomed by him.
In the image of a hopeless romantic in the melodrama “The Great Gatsby” (in a frame with Carey Mulligan). Still from the film
