“But when there were certain moments or scenes that required a very specific nuance or performance, I myself would act out the scene or the sequence and that would inspire the actors. Of course, I can't really express emotions on camera, but I was very active in showing a certain action or a blocking for an actor. I would also participate in certain stunts myself and because of that, I would get bruises or cuts on my knees and elbows.” I CanMomentsActionCertainCoursesActorsEmotionCuttingInspireScenePerformancesCamerasActiveBlockKneesSequenceNuanceElbowsBruises Author:Kim Jee-woon
“To be honest, I would have to say that there was a certain burden in working with Arnold, a big action star. I am aware that Arnold is loved by the American audience, but rather than focusing on working with Arnold, what I focused on was expressing the character, Sheriff Owens, through Arnold the actor and knowing that Arnold and my idea about Sheriff Owens coincided and that it was about Owens protecting a certain value and justice, I focused more on that aspect that helped me to be more comfortable in working with Arnold.” IdeasCharacterBigsActionCertainValuesActorsStarsJusticeAudienceKnowingHonestComfortableAspectBurdenFocusedBeing HonestSheriffs Author:Kim Jee-woon
“I prefer to work the old-fashioned way.
