CNN
anchor Bill Hemmer talked with Cruise about the
film in an interview that aired on Tuesday's
"American Morning." |
| スピルバーグとの微妙な関係についてプロとしてこう語る |
CRUISE:
You know, Steven likes to say, I'm a director;
I'm a director for hire. But you know, when
you're going to send something to Steven [it
gives you pause]. I've been wanting to work with
him -- who doesn't want to work with Steven
Spielberg? -- and so I sent it to him. He
was a friend of mine, and it's also ... you get a
little nervous before you send something like
that. I was waiting going, man, what does he
think, what does he think? I thought he probably
won't be interested, and then he called and said,
"Yes, I want to do this."

CRUISE:
Sure, because I thought it would be fantastic. I
thought of him working on this, and he's a
brilliant filmmaker and I want to work with him,
and of course, you know, it means a lot to me. |

CRUISE:
He's amazing.
HEMMER: Really? How so?
CRUISE: He's Michael Jordan. He's Joe Montana.
He's Gretzky. He's ... |
| CRUISE:
Good, well, I would do two dozen more with him.
He's -- I think of all the wonderful moments that
I've had in the cinema, and also years later
looking at the cassettes and DVDs of his films,
he is the great storyteller. And I think what he
did with this was magnificent. ... He just -- you
know this is Steven Spielberg movie, start to
finish. ... To be inside when he's coming up with
-- up with the ideas and to be part of that and
see his imagination and how it works, that is a
great pleasure. |

HEMMER:
How about this, though? Because you kind of send
a mixed message in the movie. No murders in six
years? You would think in Washington, D.C. ...
CRUISE: With the short story, it's a tug. No
murders in the future, but you see -- I don't
want to give story away -- but you want to see
what happens. You think it's a good thing, but it
reveals the other side of it when used in a way
that's not responsible. So it is a dilemma. |
現実と作品のジレンマについて |
| These
things are happening right now. We have cameras
in the city that are watching people. We have,
you know, where people go and surf the Net, and
yet there's someone watching them and taking
notes on the sites they go to, what they buy, so
they're doing character profiles on them. It's
happening to us right now. |
これが現実であるともいっている |
| |
個人的にはこのようないわゆるブロックバスター映画（大量宣伝大量動員映画）はあまり好きではありません。しかし、ハリウッドの一方にはこのようにして成功させる映画がかなりのパーセンテージを占めていることは事実です。
当然観客側がどのように判断するかにかかっていますが、単に楽しむにはなかなか面白い映画ではないかと思います。
日本ではずいぶん先ですが１２月公開。 |
