Sound Bite: Eric McCormack and Jenni Baird
Baird – Yeah because the script was so authentic I mean really it came off the page.
Eric – Yeah I knew what it would like look, I didn’t know, I didn’t fully get the tone which I thought was going to be a little bit more send up and Bob made it clear that wasn’t what he was doing, that he wanted to, and again I didn’t fully even understand why at the time but he wanted to recreate it in all, every department whether it be props, lighting, the film stock, he was going to be authentic and he was virtually going to sell it like an unearth piece of film from 57.
Baird – and he didn’t want us to play the comedy, it had to be real an earnest.
Eric – Yeah he wanted it to be funny because it was true.
