Woody Harrelson had not been able to make it to The Hollywood Press Reporter‘s chat at the Sundance Film Festival with Suncoast writer-director Laura Chinn and the actor’ s co-stars Laura Linney and Ariel Martin. Nonetheless, Chinn and Linney lost light on what Harrelson gave his duty.
In Suncoast, which is partly based on Chinn’s very own life, Harrelson’s personality Paul is a lobbyist that objects for real-life individual Terri Schiavo’s right to live while remaining in a vegetative state. He strikes a relationship with Doris (Nico Parker), a high schooler whose comatose bro is being kept in the very same center as Schiavo.
Talking on the vibrant in between the personalities of Paul and Doris, Linney, that plays Doris’ mom Kristine, claimed,“The thing that’s also interesting is when you have conviction on opposite sides of an issue. The conviction is the same and the conviction can, if allowed, can connect people. But the viewpoint’s wildly different but it’s always so interesting to me how the convictions is very similar.”
The bond in between Harrelson and Parker onscreen equated offscreen also. Chinn kept in mind that Harrelson and Parker shared an all-natural chemistry onscreen, partly many thanks to Harrelson having actually starred along with Parker’s mom Thandiwe Newton in Solo.
“Woody and Nico were just darling together. That was the real, how safe he made her feel,” claimedChinn “He’s worked with her mother before so it was very… they felt like family. Listening to them and him guiding her and giving her tips — they were very, very, very sweet. That was my takeaway, I was just very grateful that her being so young and so new to all this, that he was there for her.”
