“We all know he has no script, but we build up the film on trust,” she continues. “I trust him, but we have no script, don’t know how long the movie [shoot] is, but he is the master. He gave me a map; I get on the train with him. I have no idea what the final destination is, but I knew there would be stops. Going on this journey, I slowly understand my character more and better.”
