1
Well, you know, I mean, Dexter is not really a sci -fi, obviously it's not a sci -fi show in the usual sense,
2
but it is like what in the way I was speaking about, it's a genre show that kind of skews your way of looking at something.
3
For example, this is as antisocial, as bad a character that you can imagine.
4
But if through the process of drama you can actually empathize with this person,
5
you realize that you can empathize and have compassion for just about anyone.
6
And you can't read a book by its cover.
7
And that's what I love about drama.
8
You know, sometimes I play these very bad characters.
9
But for me to play them, I can't judge them as being bad.
10
I have to be the best lawyer for those people as possible.
11
And it just makes you realize that everybody is on a journey.
12
Everybody has a story to tell.
13
And, you know, it has this humanizing quality.
14
I mean, that's not to say that, you know, we should all support mass murderers.
15
It's just to say that he is a very strange person, but you end up kind of loving him.
16
And that's an interesting experience as a viewer.
17
Your character certainly had a complex relationship with Dexter.
18
I guess fans will want to know what was it like working with the mercurial talents of Michael C.
19
Hall?
20
It was super fun, you know, because he's very socially awkward.
21
Not Michael, Dexter.
22
In the first season, he's really kind of finding his way.
23
He's almost kind of childlike.
24
His relationship with Rita is verging on kind of platonic.
25
It's kind of...
26
And then when Lila comes along, I'm able to bring out all these other elements in him and he's a little repressed and he's,
27
you know, I had the joy of actually kind of bringing out these other elements.
28
And I think for Michael it was quite exciting because however amazing the character was in the first season,
29
he had a chance to express this other side and discover this other side for the first time.
30
So that was super fun.
31
Obviously you never shy away from playing difficult and challenging characters
32
and I think your character in Dex is a magnificent example of that.
33
As a performer, how liberating is it for you to play someone who's genuinely sociopathic and magnificently unhinged?
34
Well, I mean, it's fun.
35
I mean, it's fun to kind of go there
36
and kind of be that person that you would hope that you would never be.
37
And you've got this perfect excuse to kind of go there because it's your job to do it.
38
But that being said, I must say that at the end of shooting, you know a day of being Lila
39
I used to kind of have to go home kind of dim the lights drink some wine
40
and eat some chocolate
41
because I irritated myself you know in order to kind of be available for Lila
42
I had to kind of who crossed people's boundaries
43
and was always saying the inappropriate thing
44
and in your face you know I was kind of like bouncing off the walls you know
45
and I'd kind of need to kind of go home
46
and kind of like you know throw it away a little bit but But no, it's a really interesting thing.
47
You can make some really interesting choices when you're playing characters like that.
48
I think that, listen, the reason that there are so many, you know, so many doctor shows and so many police shows,
49
and they're quite kind of conservative shows nowadays, days.
50
But the reason that they have always been successful is we like seeing other human beings in heightened situations.
51
The reason Shakespeare was so big, and we talk about Shakespearean as these kind of big epic themes,
52
is when is someone going to step up and be courageous
53
and be a hero or fail miserably and be Machiavellian and awful?
54
What are you going to do when push comes to shove?
55
And I think that when it's heightened like that, it's a lot of fun.
56
Well, for me as an actor, it's a lot of fun, but it's a lot of fun as a viewer.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
