comparison between this and other films in the modern cannon there’s really only one that springs to mind for Scott. “This one feels in some ways, mainly because of the main character and I wouldn’t compare the two movies in a lot of different ways, but I think it will get a lot of comparisons to Seven in some ways but that’s just because there’s a style to this movie and it’s pretty visual and stuff.”
Now, for a guy there’s really very little that can compare with the fun of getting to play detective for a day and bust down a door with a gun in your hand screaming things like, “NYPD… FREEZE!!!!” We all wanted to do that as kids. But now that Scott is living the dream he’s discovering that that stuff actually takes a bit of a back seat to the acting itself. “For me, my characters climactic scene where I kind of lay the cards on the table with Willem’s character and it’s sort of a mono-a-mono type of scene, that’s my favorite. I love that. That’s the most fun. But the gun stuff and the fighting stuff and running around with guns drawn that’s super fun too. It’s like cops and robbers. It’s cool.” Anamorph actually marks the second time these two actors have worked together. The first time was unfortunately a movie most of us would like to forget.

This was more fun for sure. This was much more our kind of movie. It was really cool 'cause I didn’t get to do that much with him on the big action movie but this was great going up against him like that, it was great.” The other benefit of jumping on board with this film was that Speedman finally got to realize one of his acting goals--to finally film in New York City! “This was my first movie I’ve shot in New York City, it was really cool,” he says. “We were supposed to shoot The 24th Day here and I was kind of surprised when my plane landed in Philadelphia. But I’ve always wanted to shoot here and see what that was like and it was great.” There are of course tons of things that are unique about filming in a city like New York, not the least of which Scott discovered were the scarily accurate clichés. “Obviously you always here that cliché that the city becomes another character but it does in a way; things happen here and it has this energy and it just feels good to be here and shooting. It was great.” And unlike the attention drawn to projects filmed in small towns or rural areas where it’s a major event, in New York Scott ... |
