00:00 This is a portrait of Emily.
00:02 It's so rude.
00:04 No, I like it.
00:05 Six out of ten.
00:06 What film does Yorgos repeatedly watch before starting on a new project?
00:16 What if I'm wrong?
00:20 What happens then?
00:21 Oh, I cannot be wrong about this.
00:23 Oh, great.
00:23 Can I put down two?
00:26 All right, I'll put down two also, just to play along.
00:30 Um, don't, no wait, I'm not done yet.
00:33 I'll actually watch both of them, but I guess I've said one at some point.
00:39 Oh god, there's so many.
00:41 I don't think you're gonna get this one.
00:43 Okay.
00:45 All right, ready?
00:46 One, two, three, go.
00:48 I put Pickpocket.
00:52 Yeah, good, good answer.
00:54 Oh, so you said that in an interview once?
00:56 I guess I said that in an interview, but also the red and the white.
00:59 Okay.
01:01 You don't know about these things, do you?
01:03 Well, I haven't seen that one yet.
01:04 Yeah, after 80 years of trying.
01:07 How many Academy Awards has Emma Stone been nominated for?
01:12 Do you want me to write it down?
01:14 No, that's embarrassing.
01:15 I can't do that.
01:15 Write them down?
01:18 It's like writing your own, like, IMDb page.
01:20 No, it's just a number, right?
01:22 How many?
01:22 How many?
01:25 You're supposed to write it.
01:27 Yeah, I'm thinking.
01:28 I'm counting.
01:29 One, two, three, three.
01:32 Yeah.
01:34 Nice, great job.
01:37 That's good.
01:38 What sport was Yorgo skilled in growing up?
01:42 She knows that.
01:44 Well, I don't know if I was skilled.
01:46 You were skilled enough to break a bone that has never healed.
01:50 Yeah, that's true.
01:51 No, I can't anymore.
01:55 He's destroyed.
01:55 He broke a vertebrae.
02:00 Vertebrae.
02:01 And a sesamoid.
02:03 Well, that was necrotic.
02:04 It's broken in pieces.
02:07 Well, that's because your body's starting to eat that, right?
02:10 Because it's broken in pieces.
02:12 Oh.
02:13 A sesamoid is a bone in your, like, big toe that if it dies, it--
02:18 It's not in.
02:18 I thought you were a doctor.
02:20 Underneath.
02:20 They don't care about their medical stuff.
02:23 Anyhow.
02:24 What's one note Emma hates getting on set?
02:28 Ready?
02:36 Go.
02:38 He gives me notes, he's like, "All right, let's do this one, like, a little bit faster."
02:51 Because that last one was like, "I'm going to whatever."
02:55 So this one faster.
02:55 I'm like, "I don't need that.
02:56 I don't-- you don't need to show me how I did it.
02:58 Thank you."
02:59 But he does it every time.
03:00 How did Yorgos meet his wife?
03:02 I don't--
03:04 I think I might.
03:14 I think I might.
03:16 Oh, because it's really long and I wrote really short.
03:18 Go.
03:20 Go.
03:21 Theater.
03:25 A play?
03:26 Oh, you don't know anything.
03:28 What? Wasn't it?
03:29 No, it was Attenberg.
03:30 When we acted together in Attenberg.
03:32 Wait, you met on Attenberg?
03:35 Yeah.
03:35 That-- no, I was-- no, it was not what I was-- that was not what I was thinking.
03:40 I think there was like a theater element.
03:41 Maybe because she does the theater-- okay, whatever.
03:43 I got it confused.
03:44 Sorry, thank you.
03:45 If Emma were to bring one of her past characters to life for a day,
03:49 which character would she choose?
03:50 Oh, God.
03:51 Go.
03:56 Oh!
03:59 Good. Okay, good.
04:00 But I'm like, you know, way ahead of the game now.
04:06 I know, I need to get better at this.
04:07 What's Yorgos' biggest fear?
04:09 I don't know that.
04:12 Do you know that?
04:14 Shit.
04:15 That's dark.
04:16 Ready?
04:18 Yeah.
04:18 Go.
04:19 Oh, no, you're not right.
04:20 And we've discussed this many times.
04:22 Yeah, but it's-- it was the process of dying from being sick.
04:25 I don't think--
04:27 This is a really fucking sad question.
04:28 You don't get a point.
04:30 Don't get a point.
04:31 No, but I was gonna write being sick, and then I thought, like, that doesn't--
04:35 it's getting sick into dying.
04:37 Yeah.
04:37 It's the same-- it's the same spirit.
04:40 Yeah, no point.
04:42 Half a point.
04:43 That's not half a point.
04:44 You're still behind.
04:48 I think I'm doing really well.
04:50 This can really destroy us.
04:51 Yeah, this is gonna tear us apart.
04:53 How many tattoos does Emma have?
04:55 What are you writing?
05:01 It's a number.
05:03 Okay, it's not a number, I guess.
05:06 Ready?
05:08 Yeah.
05:09 Go.
05:10 Okay, nobody didn't realize I had the second one, because I have a second one right here
05:17 on my ankle, and we shot an entire film, and then one day he went,
05:21 "What is that? Has that been in the shot the whole time? You have a tattoo?
05:25 You've always had this tattoo?"
05:26 And I was like, "Uh-huh."
05:28 This one that was very poorly done by the tattoo artist, that is bleeding out and much too deep,
05:34 it's supposed to be pencil thin, as originally drawn.
05:37 That was a very lovely thing.
05:40 My mom was sick when I was, like, 19, 20, and her favorite song is "Blackbird,"
05:45 and so we said when she got through treatment, we would get Blackbird feet as a tattoo.
05:50 And so we asked Paul, because I had met him one time, if he would draw them for us,
05:55 because he wrote "Blackbird," and he drew them for us, and so we got them.
05:59 All of our answers and stories are so...
06:02 Sad.
06:03 Sad.
06:04 When did Yorgos first read the book "Poor Things"?
06:07 What year are we gonna put, though? Because I always fluctuate between two.
06:11 I know.
06:15 That's...
06:15 All right.
06:18 10, for sure not.
06:25 It was 11 or 12.
06:27 Oh, 11 or 12.
06:28 Because you always say 12 years, and then I was like, "Oh, it's 2024 now."
06:32 So that's 13 years, so now you're upping it to that, so that your answer still stays true.
06:37 The character, Bella Baxter, was completely taken by her,
06:43 so we just knew we had to make it one day after 12 years.
06:48 And why was Emma perfect for the part of Bella Baxter?
06:51 Literally, literally perfect.
06:53 Because there's no one like her, and there's no one like Bella Baxter.
06:59 Aw, thanks, Yorgos.
07:01 Thank you.
07:01 Well, I don't know you at all. Thank you.
