I can't totally talk about why we divide, but... it's interesting because we're doing this scene today that's sort of the pinnacle of that. two gangs fighting against each other, ultimately knowing that... ya know, it's like friends fighting friends. to me it's fun, personally.

More From Jeremy Renner

I'm questioning it. we're trying to get a lot of money for health and education and i'm wondering... you look at these gangs, and i look back at prohibition. when we didn't allow alcohol, what did we have? we had gangs. we had big gangs. it's something that needs to be discussed a little more. it's an economic issue and a violence issue.

What i don't like is when i see stuff that i know has had a lot of improv done or is playing around where there's no purpose to the scene other than to just be funny. what you don't want is funny scene, funny scene, funny scene, and now here's the epiphany scene and then the movie's over.
Purpose Done Want
On the contrary, it's because somebody knows something about it that we can't talk about physics . it's the things that nobody knows anything about that we can discuss. we can talk about the weather; we can talk about social problems; we can talk about psychology; we can talk about international finance gold transfers we can't talk about, because those are understood so it's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!

I love actors and i understand what has to happen within a scene. any scene is an acting scene and actors never act alone, so there has to be an interchange. if it's a dialog scene, if it's a love scene, it doesn't matter because you need to establish a situation.
Acting Needs Actors
I am no fun at all. in fact, i am anti-fun. not as in anti-violence, but as in anti-matter. i am not so much against fun - although i suppose i kind of am - as i am the opposite of fun. i suck the fun out of a room. or perhaps i'm just a different kind of fun; the kind that leaves on bereft of hope; the kind of fun that ends in tears.
Fun Opposites Tears
What is a scene? a) a scene starts and ends in one place at one time (the aristotelian unities of time and place-this stuff goes waaaayyyy back). b) a scene starts in one place emotionally and ends in another place emotionally. starts angry, ends embarrassed. starts lovestruck, ends disgusted. c) something happens in a scene, whereby the character cannot go back to the way things were before. make sure to finish a scene before you go on to the next. make something happen.
