Can't thank enough to Matthew for choosing Taylor as our Alex, he's so perfect and talks about this book, this movie and this story and what represents with so much love and care that melts my heart 🥺❤️ we were so lucky to have him to represent this beloved character ✨ and Sarah is exactly the Zahra I imagined when I was reading the book, she totally nailed it! 😍🔥

What Sarah said about not speaking because it’s your line, but listening, then pausing to have your thought about that line, THEN responding, is not only necessary for actors, but it’s one of the reasons why RW&RB landed so spectacularly. On whatever rewatch, I started noticing how much silent space there was between the actors speaking on screen for the entire movie. I don’t know whether it came from Matthew López’s direction, all the cast, or a collaboration. I don’t know whether there was an actual discussion to leave time and space between actors speaking, or it happened organically because of the skillset of the actors. I know there was a film-length time crunch, López had to fight hard to get a 2 hour film instead of Amazon’s determination this be a 90 minute movie. AFAIK even then López was fighting for it to go over the 2 hours by a few minutes and got a hard no. And yet despite the film length time crunch, all these silent spaces occur over and over and over again on camera. López chose not to tighten up the dialogue speed to get more scenes or lines into the film. And I think it’s one of the reasons why we sink so deeply into the story and performances of RW&RB. So many emotions put outwards by the actors and felt by the audience are magnified, absorbed, lived in these pauses.

Taylor really is the perfect Alex. It's obvious how much thought and preparation he put into the role, and it's very meaningful for fans and for lgbt people like myself, especially the bisexual community.

@tommiller3017 Месяц назад

So much information. Such bright people. Somehow, actors get bad press as human beings. I wanted to see more on Sarah. She just exploded in every scene she was in. I think more and more about the greatest lime from RWRB. Alex says to Henry, "You can go along in your castle, and nothing will ever happen. But, Henry, nothing will ever happen." Isn't that what life should be? I'm sorry I haven't done this in my own life.

The sequel being PG-13? No, Taylor!

@LittleFiddlyBits 3 месяца назад

It's because the first film didn't really get all that "risque" and still got an R rating that it probably didn't deserve.

@gozerthegozarian9500 3 месяца назад

I mean, as gorgeous and hot as the sex scenes in RW&RB are, they are no more graphic than a lot of hetero sex scenes I've seen in straight romcoms that have a PG-13 rating - there's not really a reason for RW&RB to not also be rated PG-13, other than homophobia! Then there's the absurdity that a film can show hard violence and get a PG-13 rating more easily than a film showing soft sex - the latter is infinitely more likely to be pleasurable & beneficial to both participants, after all! I think this is was Taylor was refering to: give the damn thing a rating that is actually based in fair & rational evaluation, rather than yesterday's twisted "moral" standarts or sex-negative hysteria. I don't think he meant that he wants to tone it down for the sequel and keep his clothes on more - I mean, would you, if you had a bod as smoking hot as his?

@4nnette636 3 месяца назад

I love what Sarah says here: "Listen to what your scene partner ist saying the line before, let it affect you, have the thought as he was saying, and then that is what prompts your line." I have zero talent for acting myself. And I've never read a script before. So I didn't know how detailed they were in terms of what the actors were portraying on screen. Then I read the script for RWRB and I was so surprised at how Nick and Taylor brought the script to life! For example the closet scene. The script contains almost only their lines. But they made so much of it because they do exactly what Sarah says here. They (in and out of character) listened, thought about it and let the words affect them, and only then (often after a pause) said their lines. That's what made the scene so authentic and relatable. One of my favourite scenes in the movie 😍

@williamfrederick8983 3 месяца назад

I have watched Red White and Royal Blue at least 100 times already and I NEVER tire of it. I am so amazed at how real this movie feels. I have laughed and cried many times. Its a beautiful movie and I cannot wait until the next movie comes out - BUT please can I make a suggestion!! DO NOT make the movie with a theme of Alex and Henry get a divorce or someone dies etc - please give this a wonderful happy ending... In the way things are in the world today, we all need something positive and joyful... jus sayin lol Thank you!!

@D.S216 3 месяца назад

After watching the conversation, I appreciate Taylor a million times! All his struggles and the way to fulfill his desire to be an actor. An inspiration to every beginning actor.

@klwl 3 месяца назад

In RWRB, Sarah's scene "breaking into" the hotel room finding the naked first son, and then prior to and after discovering the British prince hidden in the closet, was fascinating to watch. Really appreciate the opportunity here to get a deeper insight into who she is as a person and an actress! She sounds like a fun person to hang around with...

The music in the cake scene shifts from Schubert to Johann Strauss's The Blue Danube, the same music in 2001 when we see the space crafts waltzing in the cosmos. All the music in the movie, both incidental and known pieces, just one more incredible facet, add so much. (Watch the clips of the movie without the music. Like the sort of nervous music for Alex in the Red Room which then swells as he and Henry embrace and start to "go at it.")

Always love hearing from Taylor, I'm so happy for him that his hard work paid off, he deserves his success so much. ❤❤ Hope we see more of him in other roles and I of course can't wait for the RWRB sequel. He's brought up a trilogy before, and I'm like, yes, I'm here for that if everyone else is too. 🙌🙏 It's also cool hearing from Sarah, I've watched her in so much stuff (although not crying and masturbating lol). First time was over 20 years ago in Alias playing Bradley Cooper's girlfriend. I also love Person of Interest and the short-lived NBC series Life, I was so gutted when that was cancelled. So damn good.

When I saw Taylor watch Streisand get the lifetime acheivment award at the SAGs, I wondered if he knew who she was.

@Belaugh 3 месяца назад

Talking with such heart and enthusiasm really proves the point that this film is not just well loved and an instant classic, but that it has struck an emotional, sexual and societal chord and proved such a landmark in LGBTQ+ film making. And therefore should win every award possible it is eligible for - nominated or not. Because what is the film everyone is going to remember from this year, for all the best possible human reasons? RWARB, of course!
