“It was important for me to cast characters who reflected who these characters were from the different countries and I really wanted them to use their natural accents. Funny, so many of them said “should I get a dialect coach to make me sound a little more English?” and I was like “No, I love the way that you speak.” And what was so beautiful on set is how much they spoke each others languages and in hearing that in rehearsals and in their conversations, I just thought how beautiful it would be to bring that into the actual film and so that was something we all embraced and let them be free, sometimes talk in English and sometimes talk in their natural language. The fact that they all understood each other talking all these languages, I had to often, you know, when I would say cut, I was like “what did you say?””

I went to a clown hatchery in Madison today and oh my FUCKING god there must’ve been at least 10000 clowns there. it was incredible
the breeder told me he’s been operational for 8 years now and djfjhd the new morphs he’s working with are amazing with the regular white orange and snowflakes he’s working with something that gives. them a blue tone they’re gorgeous
I read this like 10 times before I realized you were probably talking about fish
saw a post where someone was complaining that I’m only posting about certain things bc it’s a trend for “big” blogs to talk about them now and every time i see that sorta thing i’m mystified that anyone can’t comprehend that 99% of my blog is the crumbs of ideas falling of the table of my brain during a manic episode and floating to the surface where I then skim them up with an old colander and try to pass them off as coherent thoughts.
Did you not get CC’d in the email? We’re all posting about antelope this month
You say that like I’ve been able to check my email since 2016.
The fact that it’s specifically the two of you talking about this is somehow the funniest part.
