James Franco on Michael's performance in Shame.

James Franco on Michael Fassbender in 'Shame'
SAG Preview 2011: Actors on Actors

"There is a heavy use of classical music to make the New York atmosphere feel heavier, the sets are generally pristine and sterile, and the lighting is dark and moody, but most of all, Michael Fassbender's regal presence is at the center of everything in 'Shame.' That is the thing about Fassbender, he doesn't quite fit into his movies, he jumps out, not because he can't play his characters to perfection, matching behavior to milieu, but because he possesses something extra, something that we might call an aura. Like all his roles, Fassbender assumes this one with quiet authority; but where does this assurance come from, and why is there something more than just a believable performance? Marlon Brando made Stanley Kowalski explode because he was an extremely sensitive man trapped in the shell of an insensitive brute, shaped by the writing of the poetic hand of Tennessee Williams. In 'Shame' Fassbender is an emotionally charged being enlivening the shell of an emotionally detached character, in a story crafted by the artist Steve McQueen and his co-writer, Abi Morgan. Fassbender is able to articulate the emotional wrestling match that a man does with himself, an experience that usually is relegated to forms such as the novel and poetry because they can take the reader into the character's inner thoughts. He makes this struggle palpable, he does what is often said can't be done: He gives expression to the inner life of the character in a film, not through spoken language -- films usually need to resort to characters saying how they feel -- but through the depths of feeling that he lets emanate from his core."

Steve McQueen on Micheal Fassbender:

What is it about Michael that originally drew you to him as an actor?

Well at first I couldn't stand him; I thought he was a cocky bastard. [Laughs] In the audition [for Hunger] I thought, "F--k, where's he at?" Then he came back and, of course, it was love at second sight. I think that it was, with Michael, it's a way to work with someone who gets you -- and I get him, so it's all second nature. What he has is that he's a very masculine man, but there's a huge femininity in him. There's a huge female quality in Michael, of vulnerability, which I think is extraordinary, because most actors would not be that vulnerable. Everyone likes to be the hero or whatever, but in his vulnerability and his femininity there is strength, and I think, for me, that's his appeal. Basically he's not removed from you, the audience -- he is you. You see yourself in him, and that's genius. Not a lot of actors can do that.

For some reason I thought he was American. Maybe it's his exuberant smile.

[Wolkfolk]

Just watched it and I almost fainted when he took his hat off too.
But it's his smile who kills me right now! So engaging and cute. I also love how cool he looked with the leather jacket and all.
All these comments in the press about SHAME opening scene are really getting wild lol. Can't wait to see the film next week.

 

[CielDeLit]

^ I didn't watch it because I hate 'Le grand journal', they always ask the silliest questions, hate the hosts, the whole thing is just cringe-worthy. But I couldn't resist looking for gifs
