The scene is dull. Tell him to put more life into his dying.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The one thing for an actor that is complete death is if you're bored, because that boredom will show in your work.
He is not only dull in himself, but the cause of dullness in others.
I've done quite a lot of dying on shows and in movies. To have a good death scene though - come on, it's brilliant. I love a good death scene!
And that's why I chose on purpose not to have a death scene. We've seen them in a million movies and it's too much like cranking the tears out. I didn't want that scene.
The destructive character lives from the feeling, not that life is worth living, but that suicide is not worth the trouble.
To put it crudely, 'The Act of Killing' would blast open the space for the more delicate film, 'The Look of Silence,' to do its work.
The most boring scenes are the scenes where a character is alone.
The tragedy of life is what dies inside a man while he lives.
I've done about four deaths in films now, and I think it's quite good because then it's sort of a memorable moment in the film.
Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatsoever to do with it.
