Tom Kalin about Eddie - 2008 Henny Garfunkel photoshoot

I found an interesting interview with Tom Kalin from the Tribeca Film Festival about Savage Grace, in which he talks about Eddie Redmayne too. I added a few HQ photos to the article from the Henny Garfunkel shoot - Sundance portraits by Henny Garfunkel. Jan 19 2008.

TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL DIRECTORS SERIES: TOM KALIN

TK: I work with a great casting director, Laura Rosenthal, and she is excellent about finding actors. Eddie did The Goat in London and won a prize for it. We met, he read, he had amazing instincts, he went away for nine months, he shot The Good Shepard in the meantime, came back, read again and this time he had grown and there was a lot more depth, and
he was by far the most amazing actor who read.

He was shooting The Golden Age then and had these adorable little extensions in, and was like, ‘Oh, extensions look weird,’ I was like, ‘Eddie, you’re adorable, don’t worry about it.’ And there’s also the added and very important benefit that you believe that Eddie is Julie’s son. For Barbara and Tony to work on camera, you must believe that one actor is the parent of the other actor, and if you don’t, if you just think it’s make believe, that it’s Julianne Moore and Eddie Redmayne, it falls apart. But people believe it.
