You know what, Billy Jones,
50:22
the soccer hard man.
50:23
Well, that's why I never said anything.
50:24
And I actually went to Guy and Matthew afterwards and I said, before it come out, I said, listen, boys, if in any way my part in this movie is going to embarrass you or bring the movie down, Please edit me out.
50:43
I'll carry on with my football and I won't be offended and we'll still be mates and everything else.
50:48
And they went, Vin, we've done all the tests.
50:49
They fucking love you, mate.

67:36
In a good way?
6:15
Do you agree with that? It's, it's kind of a different, uh, uh, approach that Guy takes to a show like this?
6:21
this?Well, I think he judges it on the day and, and the way you're performing something.
6:27
Um, and I think he just sees, he just sees the picture, and he'll come in, and he'll sit there just off camera, and he'll say, "Try this.
6:35
Give me a couple of these and try something else." And he'll sort of know it.
6:38
And you keep saying organically.
6:40
I mean, you know, you still need a bit of fertilizer on crops to grow, don't you?
9:42
Thank you, guys.
9:48
No problem.
9:02
But you tell me.
9:02
Yeah, I mean, we've... been working on this myself and guy and he wants me to take more roles and i'll be honest and on my i've been i've been offered a couple of roles where it's the same old stuff that i've done and we've we've said no and you know i just think when you've got a big family the boys will know you've got a big family and you've got houses and everything else and kids in private school and all this bit you have to go to work And you don't make the best decisions, I don't think.
9:32
And so I've had quite a lot of that.
9:35
So now we're in a position with Guy, who's sort of mentoring me through it, that we're going to do in roles um i mean me and ray are getting no you know no younger so all them we we got
10:47
So you're taking career advice from Guy Ritchie now?
10:50
Yeah, well, I have done all my life, really.
10:52
We had a little spell where I sort of went off hot-headed for a while, you know, in my drinking days, where I sort of thought I knew better than anyone else, as we do.
11:01
And as Ray said a little while ago, I watched an interview with Ray, and you said something very... poignant, we were young men then, and we made mistakes.
18:16
Is that something you're consciously thinking about when you're performing? Or is this something that just kind of you naturally find? Vinny, we'd love to start with you.
18:24
No, I'm just lucky.
18:26
Always people say that I've got good stage presence.
18:30
Bob Boskins told me, bless his soul, he said, never change a thing, mate.
18:33
He said, you've got great screen presence.
18:36
So, yeah, you don't think of it consciously, do you? Not on set, you don't.
18:40
You just go on and do your stuff, really.
19:05
If I did, you know, you could sell it, couldn't you?
3:04
That's right.
3:06
TV now, do you know that voice? I didn't know that.
3:08
Yeah, this is called Super TV.
3:10
I learned it this morning, Chris Evans told me.
3:13
So, yeah, it's always hard, honestly.
3:15
But, you know, like, you do...
3:17
I don't know.
4:07
Well, the romance between Jeff and Sabrina, that romance becomes a much bigger part of the story, doesn't it? So what was it like building on the chemistry with Jolie Richardson?
41:25
You know, I was in America and you'd get it.
41:27
But I think, even when I played football, you've got memories.
41:32
Over a 15-year career, we won the league once, we won the FA Cup.
41:36
And it's like, in our profession, you're very lucky when you hit the bullseye.
41:41
Do you know what I mean? And you have to ride with that.
41:43
And you have to enjoy it.
41:45
And this is definitely one of them moments for us.
