We recorded Catherine in Majorca,
off the coast of Spain.
1:04:05
She and her family enjoy a home there...
1:04:07
and she was nice enough to actually
interrupt her vacation...
1:04:10
and the studio was nice enough
to send us to her.
1:04:12
So you have to imagine
this very emotional scene done...
1:04:15
in one of the most
beautiful places on earth...
1:04:18
with the ocean rolling out the window
and dappled sunlight...
1:04:21
a very Mediterranean setting
and Catherine was moved to...
1:04:25
genuine tears by the scene
and delivered a marvelous performance.
1:04:29
This sequence was boarded
by Lorna Cook...
1:04:32
who was a director on Spirit.
1:04:35
She was good enough
to do some beautiful acting...
1:04:38
in the storyboards to help sell this scene...
1:04:41
and to sell the emotion involved
'cause it's a pivotal moment for Sinbad.
1:04:46
It's the moment of his change
and so it had to be really, really sold.
1:04:50
Jakob and William did the animation.
1:04:53
The clean-up did a great job to follow up...
1:04:56
especially on these kind of animations.
It's really subtle.
1:04:59
The acting is subtle.
1:05:00
To do a great job with the clean up.
1:05:04
A lot of discussion went into
whether Sinbad should actually say.
1:05:07
"Could you love a man who'd run away?"
Because at that point the audience knows...
1:05:11
that he is going to remain true to his friend.
1:05:14
The important thing was that Sinbad's
emotional change...
1:05:17
play on-screen not off-screen.
1:05:20
If he was to come back and save Proteus...
1:05:22
without us seeing that change,
we'd have been deprived...
1:05:25
of seeing his deepest realization
of who he really was.
1:05:29
As a result,
we cut heavily into this sequence.
1:05:31
We used to have
Proteus make a very long walk...
1:05:34
but because we signaled to our audience
that he's going to make the right choice...
1:05:38
we cut it down to this moment
where there's some tension...
1:05:41
but we didn't go as far as milking it...
1:05:43
since the decision to come back
has been made.
1:05:50
One of my favorite performances of Brad's
is this whole set of lines...
1:05:53
in which he's both triumphant,
but then ultimately so sad and vulnerable.
1:05:58
Very tough scene.
In a short number of lines...
