    作者 Anjali Filmi: Andrew Garfield

    The core need driving the people's march is the dignity of their own lives, a point Andrew Garfield ties directly to every battle and fight scene in THE UPRISING. He explains that nothing in those sequences is extraneous; each moment stems from a deeply personal place. Garfield notes that Paul shared a story with him that caused emotional devastation and an awakening, proving how personal details help audiences enter individual journeys. The more specific the story, the more universal it becomes. Performances benefit when stories are shared and heard to channel emotions. This approach brings the 1381 Peasants' Revolt to life on screen.

    How do you guys feel like you tapped into that balance of the emotional core? The more personal of a story you tell, the more universal it becomes. The more personal details that there are in each person's journey, the more those details become in audiences' way in, where they are in the story. And every battle scene and every kind of fight scene comes from that very, very personal place. There's nothing extraneous. It's all related to that core need that these people are marching for, which is the dignity of their own lives. It was something that Paul shared with me that really broke something in me and awakened that kind of devastation. I always find that any performance really benefits from just stories shared and heard to be able to channel those emotions.
