fuckyeahgoodomens: From SXSW panel:Neil: Crowley actually is really smart and he’s the same character. He goes through, you know, an awful lot, but he’s the same person at the beginning on the wall at the Garden of Eden as he really is at the end of the story. Aziraphale actually has to change. He’s like somebody who for years has just been such part of a group, part of a political party, part of something that he kind of believes and trusts, and now he’s starting to realize that actually that… we fucked… he actually has much more painful journey. He makes more mistakes. Crowley knows how appaling Hell is, so that never really changes for him, and he know that he likes being on Earth. He is against the Armageddon from the word go. He thinks the world is great and is comfortable and it has restaurants and wine; it has a few strange things, you know, he’s never been able to get anything other that The Best of Queen to play in a radio. It’s a great place to be. Aziraphale kinds of knows that, but he also believes that they Heaven and Gabriel, they kind of know what they’re doing - don’t they? So he’s the one that goes through the journey. I: Crowley has lived a life of bravery. I mean, if it’s a metaphor for a human existence, he’s the guy who put himself out there, he’s fallen down, he’s got back up, he knows what it feels like to be alive. Aziraphale’s lived a very guarded life and as a result he fears, you know, with the good and the bad so he really is a metaphor for the rest of us trying to figure out who we are.David: Yes, ‘cause Crowley was once an angel too, remember. He’s an angel who fell from grace, so he knows he’s amongst wankers to begin with. It is really about… dealing and surviving and if only he could make the scales fall from his mate’s eyes they’d be in a much better possition. Best. Character. Insights. Ever. WOW! -- source link
