hey everyone welcome to green light so today we're talking about reminiscence it's a hugh jackman
film directed by lisa joy the creator of westworld take a look behind the scenes with us here you're
going to see a bunch of really cool stuff on how they created this film reminiscence and
how they were able to create a world of their own you're going on a journey a journey through memory
all you have to do is follow my voice i think audiences more and more are going to the movies
to see something they haven't seen before to be immersed in a world that they don't know
they want to go on a journey miami in the not too distant future it's a sunken world
in this place where there's so much chaos there's a lot of nostalgia
venice owns a reminiscence machine which enables people to
relive their memories it unlocks the full experience and transports you in time
you can really live that moment as if it's happening in the reminiscence i can feel
his arms around me nothing compares in this future another drug is memory
memory can be its own kind of addiction the brain is a very confusing
and potentially dangerous place so my character is the person who takes you
there to that memory so that you don't go down the wrong path memory can be really positive
it's got a destructive quality too no no no no put me back put me back
lisa is so well suited to project into the future and create stories
that allow us to question whether we want to lose our humanity
there is a musicality to her writing and it's absolutely incredible
lisa has taken questions of character and fate memory and turned them inside out blown
them to pieces and reassembled them in this breathtaking way
what attracted me was a movie that felt so original i had no idea where this story was going
there's five or six turns you're not going to see coming and yet she handles it so
definitely that you are just following these characters on their journey russia where is she
that machine of yours how close can you get
before the illusion's broken
you're going on a journey all you have to do is follow my voice
reminiscence was really the first thing i'd ever written that was wholly my own but i had this
story that i wanted to tell the first time i met lisa was on the set where we shoot westworld and
i was just amazed at her mind and her poetry romance and love i was the beneficiary of such
talented generous minds helping me bring this collective story to life it feels like home
being with our camera operators and paul being here and i'm just grateful to be a part of it
i love tandaway we have worked together for several years now we met on a facetime to talk
about westworld where we were both breastfeeding our children it doesn't get more real than that
i respect her so much as an artist as an advocate
as a friend i mean honest to god it took me a week to wake up to the fact that lisa wanted me to be
part of her first feature tandy and i have really become friends in life it's been many
years so we have a real relationship and i love her and i'm so happy we have a scene that's
completely different from clementine and maeve from westworld like it's dramatically different
in the reminiscence i can feel his arms around me memories even good ones have a voracious habitat
howard's a genius like we literally sat here this is so amazing isn't it cool working with howard
is a dream come true such a gifted generous collaborator and friend we work together on
westworld too you know i've been working with howard on westworld and now this film he's an
incredibly talented designer and light is important to him
paul is an artist there's never a shot that doesn't tell a story
there's a cinematic eye that has both scope and intimacy
i had the pleasure of working with lisa joy on season two of western what drew me to her vision
is really styled writing their complexity of their characters
and the truth about them asked is fantastic and we've worked together before which is great to
have had that shorthand he knows i've done it before so i can't get away with anything
it only has the scope and feel that it does because my collaborators gave it their all you
can feel it on set you can see it on screen to be there with people that you have worked with
and collaborated with so closely for so long is an incredible advantage there's a trust
there was not one moment where i didn't feel such immense gratitude because i knew
i was in one of those really lucky moments a moment that i would reminisce over it was an
incredible gift they gave me i hope you enjoyed this special look behind the scenes of this film
