→ "Henry Butash On The Making Of The Atlantic City Story With Broadway Stars Mike Faist And Jessica Hecht"

“I think where Mike’s so great is just, even when he’s not delivering dialogue, he’s just giving such a strong performance with his looks. You can always feel him thinking when you look at him—you can see him thinking. Which is sort of the mark of really good film acting, at least.”

I fully can’t comprehend that people know Mike Faist from West Side Story and not Newsies or Dear Evan Hansen, or any of the other projects he’s been a part of?

And soon enough there’ll be people who know him only from Challengers????

#yknow those alice by heart workshops too #mike faist #newsies #dear evan hansen #challengers #i can i will i did #the atlantic city story #the grief of others #pinball the man who saved the game #panic on prime

→ “Henry Butash On The Making Of The Atlantic City Story With Broadway Stars Mike Faist And Jessica Hecht

“I took a very loose approach to the film. I wanted there to be something spontaneous about it; something authentic and true to life. It just felt like if I forced them into one thing, it would be like the air got sucked out of the room. It would just feel stale and stilted. I didn’t want that; I wanted it to be very organic and alive. Mike Faist and Jessica Hecht – there was a lot of room and we had a lot of takes where we had just gone through the script and talked deeply about the characters and the story. But then, once we had that foundation, we had the freedom to then wander off in a really exciting way. We did a lot of takes where Mike and Jessica knew what the purpose of the scene was narratively. But then, they weren’t tied down to a specific line of dialogue or anything like that. They just acted off of each other and worked together. We did a lot of scenes where I would tell Mike and Jessica to just surprise me. They both consistently shocked me with the things they would think of spontaneously. That was the most exciting part! And a lot of times, it was those takes that ended up in the film. Just because they felt so organic, real and natural.”

→ “It was such a labour of love”: Jessica Hecht on The Atlantic City Story

“Mike Faist is so compelling as an actor. He’s extremely open and very meticulous in his work. But also, even when you’re watching him in a big Broadway stage, he’s so truthful and there’s something very gentle about his performance style. He’s just very delicate in what he does. I was blown away by him. There was a lot of dialogue and we would play with it in different iterations, and he was so available! I actually probably have never worked with another co-star who was quite as available and quite as easy on film. He was just magnificent.”

In Out Of The Furnace, the specifics of Woody Harrelson's character and his scene were a bit random, though - i'm glad they'd edited out the more direct (and obviously misleading) references to the Ramapough Lenape Nation in the version I saw. (Except the surnames that 'happen to be' very common among the nation.)

it seems that part was unfortunately partly inspired by some racist made up stories in a real life murder case (an unarmed Ramapough tribe member killed by a park ranger) - check out the New Yorker article Fiction in the Ramapos by Ben McGrath.

I probably wouldn't have noticed those details at all if I hadn't read trivia about the movie - in the edited version post-lawsuit they are just an unspecified group of people from the Jersey Appalachians, which is all they need to be.

And it's not the point that those people would be 'bad' compared to other characters that would be 'good'.

The message is that everybody is fucked anyway - the different characters are just on different points in a spectrum of "trying to not fuck others <--> going all out on fucking others, too", to try to get ahead, to get justice, or just to survive, and failing nonetheless, because they're all fucked by forces far greater (class society, capitalism and the military-industrial complex basically!). :(

#i just felt like i needed to address this stuff after i read about it #because this was honestly one of the best films i've seen in my life #it was Born In The U.S.A.; Youngstown; Atlantic City (and other such songs) as a well crafted movie set in the 00s and 10s basically #out of the furnace #the ptsd representation too #i could unfortunately relate #(spoiler -----------------------------) rodney's death scene will probably stay with me forever #anyway i saw a post here comparing Finest Kind with Out Of The Furnace and NO ABSOLUTELY NOT lmaoooo jfc #ootf is an actually good realistic and genuinely devastating story #the only thing they have in common is the american working class setting :<#which is genuine and true only in ootf :<
