We're going to break down the character as best one can of rectal everything that mean Leo talked about to get us to form who this character waas it is.

But I do want to establish that he's the one with a photographic memory like him.

I just want you to know I'm the one who cast you, and I could not be more delighted that you're doing Thank you, Sam.

It's the day in the life of a man, sort of going not only through an emotional breakdown, but in a transition in his career and a realization that time is sort of passed him by.

The culture has passed by but creating a character that is literally on set, working on a job that for the first time, he's being challenged.

You want to look like Rick Dalton represented a certain type of actor that came out in the late fifties and the early sixties.

She spots on some television shows, two smaller parts in like military ensemble in the background of submarine movies and stuff.

People that are comparative to him would be people like Ed Burns.

George Harris was on the show Route 66 Ty Harden, who was on Bronco and then eventually he landed on NBC on a TV show called Bounty Law.

On the same year, over on CBS, Steve McQueen landed on a very similar show about a bounty hunter called Wanted.

And for a period of time they were kind of similar, and fame and and popularity.

Then both of them proved to be popular enough that during their hiatus they started doing some ah film like a feature film.

Eventually, during that hiatus, time McQueen did Magnificent seven, and that was that.

He was a movie star, but Rick was still kind of J.

But when bounty law was finished, bounty law came on in the 59 58 season and ended in the 63 64 season, made a contract with Universal and did about for feature films.

However, none of them really quite worked out.

Some of them were okay, but he never pulled off the TV to Movie Star Transition.

And so now it's 1969 and things haven't worked out for him.

So now he's guesting on other people shows like The Green Hornet or Land of the Giants or Lancer or Ronnie Lies Tarzan, Bad guy of the week on this show versus that show.

And he's thinking about going to Italy to start a spaghetti Western career.

They were a certain type of leading man that was promoted back then.

Handsome, rugged guys spent their whole careers running pocket Combs through their pop adores.

But by 1969 they never saw this happening.

The culture had changed, and now the new leading man is not he man kind of macho.

Guys put pomade in their hair, is skinny and draw Genet shaggy hair type guys.

Now it's like the hippie sons of famous people like young Michael Douglas, even Arlo Guthrie starring in movies.

Now Rick's gonna get a part of one of their movies.

He probably would be the cop who's busting that and everything he's been taught about being likable and being a leading man and, like, people have to like you if they're gonna want to get you into their homes.

Rick doesn't understand any of this stuff.

If he was offered deliverance, he turned it down.

I don't want to see that he's wrong, but he doesn't know that it's the Hollywood he'd been taught.

It was interesting with Quentin to be ableto work on this sort of emotional breakdown that that Rick is having this realization that time has passed him by.

I think in a similar way that McQueen wasn't coming from this place where, like ST Paul Newman, Waas Rich doesn't come from the method concept.

I mean, he probably thinks that in fact, he does single.

But what's interesting about when you see him do this Lancer show he's playing this bad guy with a director who actually believes in him.

And he's not just the standard issue heavy.

The whole thing that the director wants to do is change.

Rex look, and Rick has never changed his look his entire career very much like a fifties leading man.

The way he wars there, then is the way he's gonna wear.

This director wants to change your look in one of the ways he does it is he puts a long haired wig on you and he puts a mustache on you, and he kind of wants you to play.

The leader of these rustlers is if he's the leader of the Hell's Angels Gang.

But what's interesting is you have only seen yourself one kind of way, and we have only seen you one kind of way.

And even the audience of this world has only seen Rick one kind of way.

But when you see you in that wig, you don't have to be a relic of 1959.

You could you could be in a new Hollywood movie.

You could be in a movie directed by Bob Fosse, O.

Yeah, you didn't lunch before I do a scene makes me sluggish.

I believe it's the job of an actor, and I say actor, not actress, because the word actress is nonsense.

And you and I had a lot of discussions about whether you know, the sort of pivotal scenes with the young lady in the movie.

Who is kind of this young Meryl Streep who's telling Rick Hey, things aren't that bad, you know, step up to the plate.

You know you're a working actor and I take my job seriously.

By the way, this other actress he's talking about is nine, right?

It's the actor's job to strive for 100% effectiveness.

Naturally, we never succeed, but it's the pursuit that's meaningful.

She kind of inspires him and pushes pushes him t really take this job seriously.

We had a lot of discussions about whether you know whether to play through this sort of cowardly lion drapery that Rick has of this giant wig in this moustache and him feeling miserable about himself in his life, and we weren't sure whether to do.

We know this predominant, this huge chunk of Rick's character in this makeup, but it really turned out to be amazing, because you see visually on this face that he's making a huge, pivotal transition in his life through that makeup.

And we had a lot of different talks about how do you betray this character of Rick Dalton, the humanity of him while he's on set line?

I mean, right away we watch a tremendous amount of Westerns, not only Westerns, but a lot of B westerns that I wouldn't even be able to have access to, which, of course, Quinton is able to screen in this screening room and has, you know, an archive of the show that's the closest to bounty law would be one of better life.

So I watched about 13 or 14 so it's wanted dead or alive, which I had no problem doing to pick six or seven that I could hand pick for Leo for him, for him to watch it.

I thought he would enjoy and like it is a gun Faina hand over the match don't make me do you, mister.

And it was also kind of interesting because Leo wasn't the biggest fan of Steve McQueen, which is rare for a young male actor, just mostly young male actors like worship at the altar of Steve McQueen.
