Comment êtes-vous arrivé dans Queer As Folk? 你是怎样加入Queer As Folk的?
I arrived in Queer As Folk (when) I was just graduated from theatre school. I was doing some theatre in the regions. And my agent got me an audition, I was put on tape like this, in New York, and then flown to LA twice to meet with the producers, to audition with the producers, and meet with other actors. I think by the time I was flying out the second visit I knew I got the role.
I read with two potential Brian. I read with Gale and with another man for Brian. Just one time though.
I knew of it I read about it but I have not seen it before we start shooting.
Justin est sans doute le personnage qui évolue le plus dans la série… 在剧中Justin毫无疑问是变化最大的一个角色…
I think the whole series for Justin is about him becoming a man, becoming an adult, becoming independent, making decisions for himself, learning how to stand up for himself. I mean his journey is definitely really really specific and important, it’s about moving from being a child to being an adult.
Sometimes I mean, their version is very very strong, but it was some of a collaborative, you know at the end of every season we had a meeting and they talked about ideas that they have for the next season and they listened input you had what you were most excited about your character potentially.
Les scenes de sexe étaient-elles difficiles à tourner? 性爱的场面会很难拍吗?
No, I mean first, they were never hard.
It’s funny I think the more erotic sex scenes that look to the audience is like the last erotic scenes we’re shooting. It’s such technical work we spent months shooting it, it’s like a dance. It’s very like “we need to get this shoot, we need this movement”, it’s not an erotic experience. It’s really technical it took long at the beginning cuz we haven’t done it we did’t work comfortable with each other yet, the directors weren’t sure how to shoot it, but then you know halfway through that series it was like we know exactly what we needed, it was quick and easy.
My favorite is still the end of first season. The dance, the prom, you know from the dance to the end… yah, I love it, you know it’s so fun to rehearse the dance with the dance teacher, it’s really fun to shoot.
I don’t remember anything he said. I don’t remember any specific line, actually at all. (think) yah I don’t remember any line specific…
我不记得任何台词了。(掩面笑)我真的不记得哪一句特别的台词。(又想了一下)不,真的不记得了。
Qu’est-ce que ca vous fait d’être ici 3 ans après la fin de QAF? 这是QAF完结三年后你来到巴黎吗?
It’s funny it’s a bit like a timework since I finished shooting I haven’t got much about it. But then this opportunity came to come to France which I always love doing so it suddenly being gloss in my face it’s fascinating. It’s funny I have a different relationsip to it now than I did.
Queer As Folk a-t-elle eu un impact politique en faveur des gays? QAF给同性恋们带来了政治上的影响吗?
Hm…I don’t know if the show itself did, but I’d like to know that people watched this show became more involved politically in the issues that this show brought up. And hopefully those people who are more engaged because of the show had changed politics.
Les enjeux seraient-ils les même si la série était tournée aujourd’hui? 自从QAF播出后舆论环境有什么不同吗?
I think it would change, the culture in the States especially about homosexuality had changed significantly in past eight years. So it would be completely different …
(in which way?)
I just think that was so significant I mean the sexuality and pilot episode that was such a big deal then, but it was not anymore. It wouldn’t be as near as relevant. And it would be different the politics especially regarding gay marriage is changing so fast state by state. It depends it’s still relevant the Proposition. But ah…it’d be acknowledged in different way right now.
I created a non-for-profit art organization with my friends called the Arts Bureau. Our intention initially was to creat theatre because most of us are theater actors, but it ended up being much easier to create films. We created a short last winter that’s been shown in some festivals in the States, and over the summer we shot our first feature. And now we’re in the process of raising money in order to finance postproduction to get it edited to get the sound in. It was created so that me and my friends, we’re actors we’re working, could have more power to create our own specific work between jobs…and made the kind of work we wanted. It’s just selfish…
Les personnel pink? Madonna ou Kylie? 哪一个更是gay icon? Madonna还是Kylie? Madonna.
