Talking about how he [the director James Mangold] tried to avoid getting into a kind of cloy father-daughter cutesy banter between Logan and Laura:
Q: So instead, you mostly avoided dialogue between them [Logan and Laura] altogether?
“Yes, well, it’s also much more cinematic that way. Any way I can make dialogue irrelevant, I struggle to do it. Because my own theory is that in Hollywood movies there’s way too much emphasis on the center column. It’s almost to the point where you can have a meeting, and you have two characters that are in love – and you can have an executive say to you, “How do you know they’re in love? Neither of them ever says ‘I love you’.” You find yourself making this argument where you’re going, “People say 'I love you’ all the time and don’t. Words lie. It’s the way they look at each other that tells you. In fact, you could write dialogue where they say, 'I hate you,’ and the other one says, 'I hate you,’ but the way they’re playing the scene is love.” That’s cinema, to me.”
Q: That’s actually a scene in The Lego Batman Movie!
“Well, then, they’ve perfectly illustrated the point.”
You can find the rest of the interview here. It’s a must-read for every comic-book (movie) fan, if you ask me. Same goes for LOGAN. Go watch it ppl!
