Sur La Route - On the Road
Apparently, there's still 'group' movies where actors, technicians and
movie crew share something for weeks and then part different ways,
knowing they'll have to every night when they sing along around a fire.
By being close to Kristen and Garrett for a few hours, you can see this
closeness right away: their friendship definitely comes from their
filming/adventure. They might be young (21 ad 26), these two have lived
and no matter how pretty they are, they're not dumb. Honestly, we love
to criticize but here we're gonna have to bow. If their filmography
might not play in their favor (Twilight for Kristen and Troy for
Garrett), they tackled this adaptation with so much intensity and
intelligence that you can see it in this interview. The way they
listened to their character and how accurately they portrayed them is
confirmed to us by the producers and by the biography of the writer who
was working as a consultant on the movie.
They're happy to see each other again, Kristen and Garrett, it's so
obvious. They took joy in posing together, tight one against the other
in an old washed out blue Chevrolet, that was used as a prop for the
shoot. Lying down, sitting at the wheel, slouching in the truck, spread
out on the hood ...
They laugh and tease each other during breaks, light up cigarettes.
After the shoot: two voices interview. Kristen, in a white t-shirt and
mini shorts cut off from on old Levis' 501, mounts a stool, looking
natural despite her darkened eyes for the shoot. The sweet Garrett, who
seems really nice, sits on an opposite couch and pops open his first can
of Coke of the day. After lots of champagne between takes (the
assistant actually showed him how to serve it like a gentleman, which
made the actor laugh: 'It's like a woman, you have to take the bottle by
the neck').
The Beat goes on
They really wanted to make this movie.
Kristen: I read On the Road when I was 14. It was the first book that
made me want to read. Two years later, I received the script and met
with Walter. Sometimes you meet people and realize you wanna do the work
for the same reasons as them. Whatever the conversation we were having,
we shared a common excitement, him and I felt the same energy. When I
left, I learned I got the role and I jumped everywhere!'
Garrett: Yes, you bailed on our dinner for that.
Kristen: What? Oh right, I was so young.
LuAnne Anderson, the real Marylou, was young too. Married at 15 to Neal
Cassady, the real Dean Moriarty. Garrett was 22 when he learned he was
gonna play the best mate and unwary accomplice to Kerouac, whom he said,
helped him open his eyes when he was a teenager and that the reading of
the book pushed him to leave Minnesota. On the set, he celebrated his
26th birthday. For the 4 years of waiting before the budget was
finalized, the will of the actors never deflated. 'Walter Salles'
persistence was remarkable. He prepared the project while filming a
documentary: in fact, he already started the movie before the green
light was given, ' tells Garrett. 'With Walter and a crew of 50 people,
we took a trip from NY to LA, we had to stop 9 times for car troubles
but we did it.'
Chile, Argentina, New Orleans, Arizona, Mexico City, Montreal, San
Francisco. The trip taken for the movie, forced the crew to live like
gypsies for several months. The three main actors had to through the
same during this journey, no comfort or pampers (agents and PR weren't
present either which is pretty rare in the US.)
Garrett: 'We all leaned on each other. We were like a family for 6
months. It's a feeling you often get in this work line, except that a
month after you find yourself wit a completely different family. But to
feel a sense of belonging this strong, doesn't always happen. On this
movie, it was really special.'
Kristen follows: 'Everyone who worked on this movie told me the same,
it's rare to be part of such an experience. If I wasn't a part of it I
would have been jealous!'
To strenghten this solidarity, the producer organised a beatnik tour
before the shoot: a month submerge in the beat generation culture with
readings and screenings (all the Cassavetes' movies!). It was a prior
common experience that helped Kristen familiarised herself with her
character. 'I had the opportunity of listening to hours of recording
from LuAnne talking about that period of time, listening to her voice
brighten when she talked about teh way she danced. We knew so many
details about the real people in the book, about their lives, that it
helped us play difficult scenes. They were with us.'
Naked Feast
This girl with a strong personality and a stunning sex appeal, who got
on board in a Husdon of 1949 alongside two friends, it was for Kristen a
feminine role pretty rare, whether it is in the literature of the time
or in the cinema of today. LuAnne felt in love at 14 with the
will-o'-the-wisp Cassady. 'Something probably awoke in her thanks to
him', explains the actress, while squirming on her stool. 'Nothing that
she did was marked by fear. She was a being that freed herself from the
inhibition, she wasn't someone who's fearful. Her eyes are wide open
when it comes to life, no judgements, she's able to find the beauty in
all of us. I envy her. She constantly bursts out, she wants everyone to
feel good all the time.' A girl with no taboo, who is divided between
the two friends.
Garrett comments: 'She understood that jealousy had no meaning
She knew that her man was sleeping left and right and that his
personality made him want to touch everyone.'
Kristen: 'She didn't shy away from sleeping with all his friends
either', Kristen goes on. The erotic promiscuity !!!!!!!!!!! in the non
censored version of the book (the original manuscript published in 2007)
should be in the movie as well. Indeed, the movie features a few hot
scenes, in addition to an atmosphere of party and permanent excitement,
everything reinforced by drugs and alcohol. On the Road is unrestrained
like the life of the trio might have been. The trio that initiated the
hippie freedom in the 1970s with one or two decades in advance. For the
actors, sex and drugs were part of the contract from the beginning of
the shoot but it's difficult to get details on how they experienced this
personally on set. 'We felt a lot of love for our characters and we
wanted people to love them as much as we do.' they both reminisce. We
buy their enthusiasm. Even if the story sets place in the fifties, the
movie is timeless with its heroes everyone can identify with, starting
with the actors. Both confess being completely won over by the spirit of
road tripping, the thirst for freedom, the search for the 'it'. They
even got a philosophical lesson out of it: 'When you get out of high
school, you feel like whatever you wanna do is at the reach of your
hand. But once life beats you down a little, you think of a job, you
need to be good. Instead of dashing for the conquest of your life, you
get slowed down by life and you end up losing your wonder/amazement.'
Kristen, from the top of her status as an actress who's worked since her
teenage years, didn't want to lose her spark either. 'I would love to
be as excited as those guys were. I would love to be like this everyday.
It has nothing to do with age.' We finish by talking about the ending
of the movie shoot, about the heartbreak and the separation. Garrett
couldn't be present for the wrap party because of other obligations (he
will be in the next movie by the Cohen brothers, 'Inside Llewyn Davis',
that will be filmed soon in NY.)
'You didn't even sign my copy of On the Road' Kristen reproaches, who
will also line up the roles while playing Snow White, alongside Charlize
Theron and then will meet up again with Bella (and Robert Pattinson)
for Breaking Dawn Part 2.'It was hard, I felt like I was going back to
school, ' she confesses.
It's like the end of the summer vacation.
