We Spoke w/ zachbraff About AGoodPerson, Why It's the Best Thing He's Made, & the One Take Florence Pugh Had to Get Right. Braff also talks about working with Oscar-winning cinematographer, Mauro Fiore, and his voicemail recording from Morgan Freeman.
It’s been just under two decades since since Zach Braff's directorial debut Garden State, which, Braff tells Collider’s Steve Weintraub, still “comes up every day in [his] life, to this day.” Returning with a style unique to the actor-writer-director, A Good Person stars Florence Pugh, Morgan Freeman, and Molly Shannon in a hopeful film about overcoming guilt and addiction, and learning forgiveness for yourself and others.
COLLIDER: I like throwing a curveball at the beginning, but first, let me start with congrats on the movie, I thought you did such a great job with this. But I'm curious, if someone has never seen anything you've acted in or directed before, what is the first thing you'd like them watching, and why? Do you think that having Morgan Freeman narration in a movie is like entering a cheat code in a video game?
BRAFF: There was no way I was gonna let that happen. I mean, from day one, I was calling and texting with friends who are very involved in recovery and AA and NA. I know people, of course, and have been to meetings to support people, but I was never gonna let that happen. BRAFF: Well, you know, I agree with you and I have to credit Dan Schalk, my fantastic editor. You know, I always think of editing a movie like you've gone out in production on a scavenger hunt. You're collecting as much as you possibly can in 26 days, and then you get back to the editing suite and you're like, “Well, what did we get?” And usually, you've gotten something that's, in my case, usually two hours and 45 minutes long, and you have to make these tough choices.
I was glad that she pushed us because we did figure it out, because she kept pushing us, and we figured out a way to do it with no wigs. And so, yeah, it's really scary because she's gonna lop off her hair live on camera, and you only get one take to get it right.
