Sound Bite: Jeff Goldblum – “Adam Stein” – Adam Resurrected
They are serious artists and it just brings out the best in you, we were all focused on doing something special and were passionate about, we were deeply passionate about it and uh, Paul Schrader I met with him in Israel a year before, when I started it, we went over whole script I knew the script at the point like a play I would get together with my students who like to apprentice stuff I do sometimes and everyday I would have a run through of it and they would play all the other parts and then I went to Berlin for a month, that’s where my character is supposed to be from, I took violin lessons, because I’m supposed to be an accomplished violinist and played the violin everyday and did dog work, I’m possessed by dog behavior at some point for one reason or another, you’ll see I worked with people on that, spent some time with dogs and Caesar Milan, you know, who is the Dog Whisper, but it was a very, talked to survivors here in Los Angeles and in Israel and Europe and it was a very disturbing and provocative and finally an inspiring story.

Nothing comes to mind, I am so satisfied and grateful for everything I’ve gotten to do, you know there’s word that apropos of my immersion in this subject a Hebrew word Di Anew, that means if nothing else happened from this day on, it would be enough, I like idea I think it’s kind of healthy, if nothing else happened I would be fine.

Sound Bite: Michelle Williams – “Wendy” – Wendy and Lucy
My thoughts, I don’t know, it’s exciting for such a small movie this seems just so out of context in relation to what we were doing, so it’s rewarding, it’s just very strange.

B-Roll: Emma stands alone for the press

Sound Bite: Joel Hopkins – Writer/Director – Last Chance Harvey
I mean all, it was great, firstly having them a broad, it just meant we attached a really good, quality surrounding cast, which is so important for a film like that way this film has a sort of element of realism in it and if you don’t get the outer casting right and not strong enough, scenes can just, you might have Emma Thompson and Dustin Hoffman playing opposite someone who just doesn’t have it, um, the scene call just fall completely flat, so it was crucial to get really good people around them and with them I had the ability to attract a good cast.

Sound Bite: Emma Thompson – “Kate” – Last Chance Harvey
Well you know, we did because of “Stranger Than Fiction” and as I was saying, it’s one of those unusual experience when on “Stranger” we had such a good time and so little to do together but we loved it so much, we said, we’ve got to try to do something else, you always think that will never happen, cause it never does, you know, it’s one of those dreams, because peoples schedules are busy and la la la, your never this, never the right thing, but Joel had seen this film, the first film I had ever did, which was Richard Curtis’s first film script called “The Tall Guy”, which I made with Jeff Goldblum.
OC: We were just talking about that.
Emma: And he watched that and thought I’m going to develop that character Kate and this is her in middle age, that nurse, that rather sort of practical woman who deals with everything terribly well but ends up just damaged, you know, damaged enough not quite to be able to sort her life out emotionally and so I said, send it to Dustin and tailor make it for us, and I thought it’s still it will never happen, because there’s no money, it’s an Indie, and Dustin loved it and we got it together, we made the dam thing and we’re here on opening it and it’s incredible.

Sound Bite: Emma Thompson – “Kate” – Last Chance Harvey
Oh, I would love too, well you know I think we have to start as a family to come, cause I cant come in the way I used too, it’s my family you see, that’s all it is,
OC: Write some more?
Emma: Yes, I’m writing like anything, I’m writing like anything so that’s the thing to do, I will have to write something that takes place here, cause I do love it here and I am so happy to be here.

Sound Bite: Dustin Hoffman – “Harvey Shine” – Last Chance Harvey
Well she’s unusual because she has that rare combination, she’s brilliant, she’s talented and she has a great sense craft and she’s really vulgar, she is really dirty.
OC: That’s funny she said something similar about you.
Dustin: Yes, of course she did

Sound Bite: Dustin Hoffman – “Harvey Shine” – Last Chance Harvey
It’s wonderful to work with someone, Emma, to have that kind of unusal experience where you, the sexual innuendos are exactly the same for both of us at the same moment.
