See a funeral parlor employee try to unlock a ten-year-old mystery on Blu-ray this March.|
Amy Smart is an actress that you definitely won’t see as typecast at all. She has explored practically every genre from sci-fi (Starship Troopers), comedy (Road Trip), action (Crank and Crank High Voltage) with even an underrated indie drama (The Battle of Shaker Heights) as well. She has also appeared in a psychological thriller or two and her latest movie falls into this genre with Dead Awake, which will be released in theaters today, December 3. I recently had the chance to speak with Amy Smart over the phone and here’s what she had to say: You’ve starred in a few psychological thrillers before, but what was it about Dead Awake that first stood out to you and made you want to be a part of this? Amy Smart: Well, I saw (director) Omar Naim’s movie The Final Cut, and I loved it so much. It’s so smart and original and well thought out. When I was reading this script, I could feel his style of directing on the script and I just really trusted him as a filmmaker. I liked the dramatic parts, I liked the romantic parts, but it was more of an original screenplay. When you do step into these darker movies, are there certain things you do to prepare for a role like Natalie? Amy Smart: I played a nurse, so I learned some basic training as far as becoming a nurse, as far as research. And then I was fortunate that Nick (Stahl) and I worked together worked together on my very first job ever, and we haven’t worked together since, but we’ve stayed friendly throughout the years. It was nice to come onto this film and already have a connection with him. I’ve been a big fan of Nick’s for awhile now and you also have Rose McGowan in the cast. What was the overall vibe of this set like? Amy Smart: Well, we shot in Des Moines, Iowa and everybody was really excited to be there, to be a part of it. Again, I really loved working with Omar and trust him. We would always shoot until it felt right. We would shoot until we got what we needed in the scene and moved on. It was pretty great. I’ve seen there are more movies being shot in Iowa now, like The Experiment. It’s not your more traditional choice, but it seems these movies get more out of a city like Des Moines. What kinds of things does shooting in Iowa bring to the movie that you wouldn’t get anywhere else? Amy Smart: You get to have amazing big fields of wildflowers and grassy lawns and rolling hills. I really liked Des Moines because, even though it was like a smaller city, it definitely had a progressive feel to it. I felt like you got a city life but you also got a good neighborhood life. Kind of like the best of both worlds. Amy Smart: Yeah, and there’s definitely history there. We filmed in this funeral parlor and there are these great little locations there that we found. You were praising Omar Naim’s work before. When you got on the set and started working with him, could you compare his style and his work to anyone else you’ve worked with in the past, or what might be the best way to describe his directorial style? Amy Smart: He definitely knows what he wants, what he wants to convey in a scene and wants to feel. When he feels it, he knows it’s working. he’s such a creative artist that I kind of just really trusted him as a filmmaker and, as a communicator, he’s passionate about what he wants. He gets really excited when he finds something that works. It’s nice to have that, to have somebody that’s on the journey with you. In looking at your filmography, it seems that you like taking on vastly different roles from one movie to the next. Can you talk about the process you go through when it comes to choosing your next project? Is it a conscious choice that you want to do something so different from what you just did? Amy Smart: I would say that there is the ideal of the stuff I want to do and then there’s the stuff I get offered and then there’s the stuff I audition for. There are a wide variety of different things, but, for me, it usually starts off with a good script. That’s the basis. You could take a good script and make it a good movie or you can take a good script and make it a bad movie. There are many different interpretations, but you can’t really take a bad script and make it a good movie. That’s, to me, the foundation and then is the character interesting? Have I played her before? Do I feel challenged by it? It could be a great script, but then I might not know anybody involved or people who are involved who have a record of making B movies that haven’t really done anything. So it’s really weeding through these different elements of is it worth taking a risk on this movie? |
