Well, Cianfrance said he wrote the script with him in mind. That's positive!

Yeah! I can understand why... I see it.
Do you remember when I asked Michael on tumblr which was the most important thing he has in common with Tom and he replied "loyalty"? [emoji173]️ but I think it's not the only one. He keeps saying Tom is the best person, he aspires to be like him.. It's really good, it means he really got the essence of the character. And liked it. A lot. :)

Yeah if he wrote the character thinking of Michael he surely wasn't making a dig at Michael as a person. Maybe, maybe maybe at some Michael's roles, but he also said he loved him in X Men (his portrayal of magneto looks so real it seems he really can manipulate metal), loved him in Hunger, and then in SJ.. So yeah he was a big fan, a very huge one I'd say, and I'm very glad there was a lot of respect for him before they even started working together;)

Oh gee! How silly of me to think you were talking about the posters who were criticising Alicia's personality earlier. It's not like all this is being discussed in the same thread by the same people. And believe it or not it isn't always obvious when English is someone's second language.

EDIT: Actually they weren't even criticising her personality. Just commenting on it.
LOL! A few things, English is my second language. I do wonder if it is "glaringly obvious" to some native speakers here. Also, I was not criticizing Alicia's personality but just stating that she is not as jovial and way more serious than Michael- or at least she comes across that way. For as long as she has been an English speaker, I doubt the "cold personality" in a couple interviews last year had to do with her language. She was most likely instructed by her team to say things a certain way in order to not come across as icy. Of course anything less than peachy about Alicia is perceived as criticism. Cant help that!
 
Yes, he's mostly very positive and they seem to have had a great working relationship, but there's definitely a couple moments where he implies that he thinks MF isn't a well-rounded actor. He says that he's seen MF's brain on the screen, but not his heart. He also says that he's "proud" of MF for opening up in this movie and gives himself and AV credit for pushing him. If he's saying that kind of thing on the promotional tour, where it's his job to be super-positive, then he's probably much more critical in real life.
ETA: The Muhammad Ali vs. Seabiscuit comparison kind of seemed shady to me too.
When I watched the interview, he came across as really full of himself. IMO he seems very impressed with himself but not so much with others.
 
Has he already had connections to it long time ago since Liam Cunningham being Davos Seaworth? :biggrin:

btw, thanks guys for posting tons of goodies. What a way to catch up the Fassy front!:heart:

Well Kurzel's Macbeth was described as a kind of Shakespearean "Game of thrones", which is something I totally agree with. I mean, the colours and some aspects were very GoT style. And I ADORE Liam in the series!
