'As the director, I approach the scene like a conductor of an orchestra – Andrew Garfield being the latter – with my entire series as my score,' Isabel says. OnlyInHollywood

is a subversion of the male gaze. It was really inspired by watching for the first time Hitchcock’s , which I think is the quintessential work of the male gaze. I am trying to subvert that with “The film is set in 16th century Philippines. It’s about this native princess who pretends to be obsessed by the spirit of her Spanish master’s dead wife in order to psychologically manipulate him to give back her property and farmland.”ApparitionDIRECTOR.

As the director, I approach the scene like a conductor of an orchestra – Andrew being the latter – with my entire series as my score. The car scene is the emotional crescendo for Andrew’s character in the series, so it’s a matter of strategically dialing down his emotions in the dramatic scenes earlier on in the episode, so that his catharsis in the final scene feels well-earned and not indulgent or overblown.Andrew asked for 30 minutes to prepare for that difficult scene.

Andrew knew that I would know when to call “cut.” When he came to set after half an hour, we were ready to roll. We had a total of four takes, and we’d take a few minutes’ break after each one. It has really allowed him to tap into something richer, more surprising and vulnerable in his performance. It’s especially critical in my episode, where Ron’s life essentially falls apart and he hits rock bottom.

I’d like to think that my Catholic education growing up in the Philippines has somehow managed to hone my critical faculties when dealing with my faith and the Church as a fundamentally human and therefore imperfect and fallible institution. A glimpse into its history shows the blood on its hands, the abuses and atrocities over the centuries, and its role in colonization particularly during the Middle Ages.

I felt free to be genuinely creative within the tonal and visual parameters of the show, which allowed me to make the work that I did. Lance is exacting, he knows what he wants, but he is calm and fun to work with.
