Kubrick: Reduce the smoke a little, alan.
Michael: Reduce the smoke a little bit, al.
Kubrick: Ok, turn over.
Michael: Ok, turn over. Alright, roll video,
And action, shelley!
[slate claps]
[roaring of snow machine]
Kubrick [loudly]: Action, shelley!
[roaring of snow machine continues]
Kubrick [exasperated]: Cut it!
Kubrick: So, ***-- you went like this...
There's no ...Nobody even desperation. Said roll video.
[angry] oh, come on! What do you mean, roll video?!
We're ***' killing ourselves out here,
And you've got to be ready!
I am, too! I'm right by the door.
Should we play mood music?
No, I can't hear.
You just sort of...
We're sitting there, they say, "wait a minute,"
And then you say on the radio, "go!"
But when you do it, you've gotta look desperate...
You're just wasting everybody's time.
I can't even get this *** door open.
[voice-over]: On the record, I got such a bollocking
Because they said, "turn over,"
And they said, "video rolling"
And all that, and I got all ready
And jump up and down.
Then they said, "never mind...Cut it."
And then I was taking a bite of soup.
The next thing I know, "action, shelley!"
So... [snaps fingers]
If it hadn't been for that,
You know, volley...Of ideas,
And sometimes butting of heads together,
It wouldn't have come out as good as it did.
And it also helps get
The emotion up and the concentration up.
Because it builds up anger, actually,
And you...You get more out of yourself,
And he knew that,
And he knew he was getting more out of me
By doing that.
So, it was sort of like a game.
Anything you do as many times
As a successful actor,
You can't have one set of theories.
You know, you can go for years saying,
"I'm gonna get this thing real."
Because they really haven't seen it real.
Do you know? They just keep seeing
One fashion of unreal after the other
That passes as real.
And you know, you go mad with realism, and then
You come up against someone like stanley
Who says, "yeah, it's real,
But it's not interesting."
Has it ever occurred to you
What would happen to my future
If I were to fail
To live up to my responsibilities?
Has it ever occurred to you?! Has it!
Stay away from me!
