Benedict Cumberbatch becomes honest because of sadness, toxic manhood and advocating for those who need the prime minister of his latest movie, Thing with feathers.
The British star spoke from Berlin at a press conference on her latest movie on Tuesday. Written and directed by Dylan Southern and renovated from the book Sadness is a matter of feathers Max Porter, the new movie follows his father (Cumberbatch) and his two sons (Richard and Henry Boxall) who fight to deal with the sudden loss of their wife and mother.
“I think part of my job and where I tend into heavy characters is to explore what their humanity is – if it remains left,” he began. “Everyone starts quite innocent in my book, but I feel that we as a society owe responsibility for those who need our help most, and those who are failing through cracks, whether victims or as perpetrators of bad work, are they have to help us the most, and No we have a very light time to move them or forget about them. ”
“That’s my driver, since I was young,” he added.
IN Sherlock And the Marvel Actor also spoke about getting the opportunity to reject “Alfa Men’s Macizmo” in the film and works through a lens on a male sadness and the power of weak and vulnerable.
“It is open and capable of learning from the tragedy, instead of trying to pose it with more force and greater force and greater force, I think it is obviously quite widespread and a strong thing,” Cumberbatch said. “Insecurity and emotional vulnerability are not at the top of the agenda of the alpha male macism. … Or pushes himself as a strong man a picture of what is manhood or should be. So, I was very happy to be part of the storytelling that goes in the opposite direction from that. “
After praising the performance of two young Boxall brothers who played with him, Cumberbatch also opened up in his own relationship with sadness and seemed emotional as they talked about which parts of the director’s debut Southern echoed with him.
“It’s just a small part of the installation in the movie, but it was a moment for the clothes to be bent for the last time, getting the woman’s clothes and leaving an empty stand. … I’m 48, I went a little. I lived, I experienced sadness – I think that Most people have just hit the chord until my age.
Deciding to debut with Porter’s work – an inspired by Emily Dickinson’s “Hope” is a feature thing ” – Southern said the room:” I think Max’s book opened a lot of things for me. He gave me a language to some things I felt or some ways which I behaved on.
He continued: “At first, it didn’t seem clear to the film, because the book is so wild formally inventive in its structure. It is in three different perspectives. It is in different tensions. It has been extended for many years. But the more I dug in To him, there was more of a movie forms. the language for that quickly became obvious. “
Thing with feathers He will premiere on Tuesday night at 75 Berlinale, which runs from February 13 to 23.
