I don't think they knew exactly where they were going with the character, but they lay those stories out ahead of time, so they had some idea where they wanted it to go.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You set up the story, but the characters start talking, and they go places that you didn't expect. You have to follow.
The whole thing of doing a TV series, I find it very daunting not knowing where the story's going.
It was always about the story rather than the character.
As much as most of the actors were kind of curious to know what their character meant in relation to the script and to the plot, they really were quite happy to be part of the adventure of not knowing.
Before I started to make films, I didn't give much thought to the way the characters were physically positioned in the story world.
I try to trace the connection between the characters and that way a story or plot emerges.
If somebody is in a story, they need to be there for a reason, and not just to set up somebody else's story.
I think they went with the idea that people know the story pretty much- knowing that he's going to take her when she's going to go with him. Also, the movie is really focused on Achilles and Hector and their battles.
And meanwhile, the storytellers like me and Anderson, Silverberg... we tell stories. People like them. They want to know how it comes out, they want to know what the ending is.
I felt they had really moved the characters in a direction that was very interesting. The family had really felt the impact of what had happened to the.
