Bennett Miller Philip Quotations

Philip insisted it would be wrong for him to break down and be so emotional. But, of course, when we rolled camera, he proceeded to do exactly what he'd argued against. It's what makes his performance feel so real. When he entered a scene, he was no longer thinking like an actor. He was thinking like Truman Capote would think.

I wanted everything to be a stark look. I don't know how many actors would agree to do a film without makeup. Philip loved the idea.
