I believe he presents extraordinary and profound themes on an enormous entertaining scale. I believe no person else has been capable of seize it in the identical means that he has, and he has been groundbreaking in that means, utterly groundbreaking. I believe Chris himself is wildly shiny. He’s a hurricane of a expertise. I believe he desires to entertain folks, he’s very obsessed with motion pictures, however I don’t see it as self-serving. I see it as his perception in audiences and perception in theaters, and perception within the cinematic expertise, and his belief in audiences to get it. To not be spoon-fed it, however simply to get this huge imaginative and prescient. That’s why folks don’t really feel talked right down to in his movies.”
Damon, who’s sitting subsequent to Blunt throughout our interview, wholeheartedly agrees. He additionally provides, “His motion pictures are unbelievably entertaining, and I don’t suppose he’s attempting to get you to agree with him. I believe with this one… there are such a lot of unanswerable questions. I imply, folks have been speaking about this for 80 years, and I believe he desires to spark dialog.”
