iwouldvebeendrake01:“The thing that, as an actor, that takes me out of a movie is if someone looks like they’re doing a job and they don’t actually know what they’re doing. I didn’t want people to walk away and be like, ‘What great gun work that Elizabeth Olsen had.’ I wanted them to just not think about how I walked or shot a gun or moved. Now when I see movies when people are supposed to be gunslingers and their eyes are blinking while they’re shooting I’m just like, ‘You’re not a gunslinger. I know better.’ There’s three months of gun training, then physical training with self defense and martial arts, because that’s the kind of training that people go through so they can feel tough in their body and so you can understand how if someone aggressively comes at you you know how to handle that on the street. I worked with a guy in L.A. who was a law enforcement officer for 17 years. Then when we were in Utah, I worked with a former Green Beret who did my live weapons training, ‘cause I was training just with Airsoft in L.A. You can’t really do weapons training in LA properly cause you’re only allowed to point and shoot, you can’t reload. There’s one range called Angeles where you can go and have open air shooting, but other than that you can’t really do what I do in [Wind River]. I was able to do that in Utah and just being around someone who was a Green Beret, and was on multiple tours, and someone who has been a law enforcement officer during the L.A. riots and has transported federal weapons and been a security guard for the weapons. You just hear all these people, and how they talk, their demeanors, how they think of the government, how they think of politics. That, somehow, just from the physical training informed character aspects of how to walk, how to talk, how to approach people, how to talk to people. Maybe like a mindset of what’s right and wrong is a little different than Democrat or Republican or whatever…” -- source link
