people think that some actor is brilliant -- daniel day-lewis, he is brilliant in "lincoln." is really hard is it is hard to be good on an episode of "matlock." because when you have plot to sell, that is when you see bad acting. "the russians will be here in 14 minutes and we have to turn off the bomb." what rick did is strip the movie of plot. the goal is to not act at all, it is to be present and be creative. what makes that so hard is plot because in real life we do not have a plot. charlie: we are living moment to moment. ethan: there is this artifice. but rick has taken it away and instead substituted time which makes the movie not boring. it is so interesting to watch cinema -- cinema is 24 frames a second. as an art form, it is about time. charlie: were you influenced by your own fatherhood? ethan: rick gave me the opportunity to do a portrait. that is what i was hired to do it is the line in my psyche. it was when i was a young person, it is for any young person when you are seeing yourself. you get told you are from a broken home or the product of a failed marriage.
