Скачать или смотреть Robert Duvall: Why The Apostle Was “My Everything” | Dini Petty 1998

Robert Duvall didn’t make The Apostle as a career move. He made it because he had to.

Duvall reflects on self-financing the movie, the reality of independent filmmaking even with decades of success behind him, and the tension between awards, recognition, and real conviction. He also discusses his approach to directing, why rehearsal matters, and why Hollywood so often misunderstands the South. It’s a clear-eyed, thoughtful look at The Apostle and the values that have guided his work on screen and behind the camera.
