Sony Pictures Classics
Is that what you want to make?
I was like, no, I want to make more than a charming little comedy.
The minute I saw Chris [Plummer]s name on the casting list, I thoughtno way.
And then I started watching interviews, and whoever was interviewing Chris was so charmed and smitten by him.
I thought that Chris had that quality and that the casting was so interesting and unexpected.
Chris is a master of Shakespeare, a concert pianist, and has a pocket scarf.
I put him in an old Rolls Royce, I had a nice tailored coat.
He actually used his own jacket.
Every day after school the first thing he would do is run up to Papas room.
But he kind of got to redo some of his parenting with my son.
Boundaries hits theaters on Friday.
