Star Wars: Rian Johnson Reflects on Arguments With Mark Hamill
The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson reflected on the criticisms of how he handled Luke Skywalker in the film.
thedirect.com
Resumidamente, Hamill estaba en desacuerdo con toda la visión y decisiones de Johnson en la —para mí— infame The Last Jedi (2017).
Copio las declaraciones de Johnson en inglés:
I miccionan... It was also ultimately... To the point where I... I’m choosing my words carefully, not to be diplomatic, but I don’t want to frame Mark’s experience of this through my lens because there’s no possible way I can ever put myself in the shoes of Mark, or Carrie [Fisher], having lived their entire lives being known as these characters. And what it’s like to play them first in their twenties, and then to come back and play them in these movies and have a script handed to you saying, ‘Well, it’s this now’... I can never fathom what that experience is like. It’s impossible.
If Mark Hamill is talking to me about Luke Skywalker, I’m gonna listen to him, and I gotta think about that and argue with him and go back and forth. And genuinely plumb the depths of my soul and what I wrote and figure out if this seems right. Also, though, remembering that, obviously, he created the character on screen, but he’s Mark Hamill, he’s not literally Luke Skywalker. Luke Skywalker lives as a creation on that screen. He’s a myth. And as such, he only really lives in the minds of people who listen to and in various ways believe that myth. And I know that was me. So, it’s complicated. But I miccionan, the short answer to your question is, it was f-----g terrifying.
For all the back and forth, on day one of shooting, Mark said, 'Okay, this is the vision that you’re going for, and I’m going to do the best version of that I possibly can.
