1. SOUNDBITE (English) Kirill Serebrennikov, director and Ben Whishaw, actor:
Whishaw: "Well, there's not really not that much footage of Limonov speaking English, but there is a little bit so, you know, I remember I just studied. You study it and you try and draw something. And I feel like the sound became a way into him. I don't know, it's hard to describe, but you could access a part of him because of the sounds he made in his. Yeah."
Serebrennikov: "Ben is a type of actor who doesn't play. He just becoming a character. And it was for me, it was a pleasure because it's quite a method. It's a kind of classical system. You don't play, you don't pretend. You just becoming. And it's it's his huge skill or gift or whatever to dig and to become the... to take the skin of the character and put it on."
