Yeah.

And rather than that being something that, like- ... fixed a problem [laughs] and shut everybody up.

It stokes a fire, and it's just, uh, it, it's, uh, just nicer to, to move, um, swiftly and with tactics rather than broadcasting l- what, what the, your intention is.

I would always rather that the, the effect of my, um, body of work and, you know, even interviews like th- this are enough information.

I don't have to guide people's-

... that the response isn't that?

... let's make a really shitty...

No, it'll be make, let's make a really shitty rom-com that doesn't do well, that's, like, just the product of a bunch of notes, and then never make it again.

Mm.

I was just gonna say, as a Canadian, it's, like, s- to say Canadian culture doesn't really encapsulate what Newfoundland is, 'cause I grew up in Vancouver, and it doesn't bear any similarity to Newfoundland.

It's such a specific, unique place that's, like, c- culture is born out of its isolation, and being on the sea, and being in this...

I mean, it's, you've, I've- it's as far away from home as I could get while still being in Canada.

So it's a really, really special place, and it's so nice to be part of something that's, um, showcasing its, its extraordinary beauty and culture.

... is that what you look into at all?

Um, well, she's a marine biologist, [laughs] so she's not a crypt- what is it? A, a cryptids? Cryptid-todology? Um, so I don't believe in that, but I do believe in psychics.

[laughs]

But I respect the lifestyle a lot.

Really.

No, I mean, I think it's very intimidating doing an accent so specific and without a lot of precedent in pop culture, and I was shocked at how good these two guys were at this.

What was he like as a scene partner when you're, when he's bouncing between these tones and you're trying to do your thing? I mean, how is it bouncing off of each other?

Uh, it was great.

I just really like Josh and I liked him as a person, which is a gift when, when that happens easily and without you having to be really, like- ... muscular about being like, "Ugh, God, I have to figure out how to work with this person for the next age." Um, he's like a really lovely guy, and he's a great actor and really holds himself to a high standard, which I think sets a great tone on set.

So no matter what the thing was that he was trying to achieve, if it was a comedy beat or a dramatic-

Oh, cool

... what was happening to me.

Um, but there's just a, a, a, like, hushed reverence to the set that Denis and Roger run, where we're here to do a job and not dick around.

And when the actors have the set, everybody is silent, and when the crew has the set, everybody is silent so that they can do their work and communicate.
