Short filmTranscript
00:00 Mr. McCandles.
00:02 This is Bella.
00:04 Hello, Bella.
00:06 Bud.
00:10 Blood.
00:11 Bud.
00:12 Blood.
00:13 The artist and I started talking about poor things in 2017.
00:19 The idea of having a brain that is brand new, what would that be?
00:22 Where did she come from?
00:26 She's an experiment.
00:27 She's progressing at an accelerated pace.
00:30 I was blown away by Bella, by the character.
00:34 I don't think I've ever seen or read anyone like that.
00:38 Working with Emma, that's the reason this film for me was so exciting to make.
00:43 Bella.
00:44 Out. Now!
00:45 My character, the doctor, sees her as an experiment, which at some point reaches a crisis.
00:51 I can't let you go.
00:52 If you do not, Bella shall turn rotten with hate.
00:55 Ahh!
00:56 I must set forth into waters.
00:59 That you could have the kind of mind that isn't taught to be a certain way, I think that's very inspiring.
01:08 All of these things that women are conditioned a whole lifetime through do not apply to her.
01:15 You will confine yourself to three phrases.
01:18 How marvelous, delighted, and how do they make the pastry so crisp, yes?
01:23 You get some very funny situations.
01:26 Oh.
01:30 Emma is unbelievable.
01:33 The development of the brain, it's such a fine line, especially as we shoot things out of order.
01:38 And she's really tracking the progression, not just with her voice, but also with her body.
01:43 It's an incredibly challenging part. It's probably the hardest part I've ever played.
01:46 A woman plotting her course to freedom.
01:49 How delightful.
01:51 Not fool.
01:52 It's a huge leap for her forward. That's incredible to witness.
01:57 I don't know how this could have been made without her.
02:00 I wanted to play Bella because it felt like acceptance of what it is to be a woman,
02:05 what it is to be free, what it is to be confident, and just a little bit f***ed up.
02:11 We will need less of your tongue in the future, but overall most agreeable.
02:16 It just felt like the perfect combination of all of that.
