  • Transcript Sidney Lumet
    TRANSCRIPT A PINEWOOD DIALOGUE WITH SIDNEY LUMET Sidney Lumet’s critically acclaimed 2007 film Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead, a dark family comedy and crime drama, was the latest triumph in a remarkable career as a film director that began 50 years earlier with 12 Angry Men and includes such classics as Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, and Network. This tribute evening included remarks by the three stars of Before the Devil Knows Your Dead, Ethan Hawke, Marissa Tomei, and Philip Seymour Hoffman, and a lively conversation with Lumet about his many collaborations with great actors and his approach to filmmaking. A Pinewood Dialogue with Sidney Lumet shooting, “I feel that there’s another film crew on moderated by Chief Curator David Schwartz the other side of town with the same script and a (October 25, 2007): different cast, and we’re trying to beat them.” (Laughter) “You know, trying to wrap the movie DAVID SCHWARTZ: (Applause) Thank you, and ahead of them. It’s like a race.” I remember welcome, everybody. Sidney Lumet, as I think all saying that “you know if this movie works, then of you know, has received a number of salutes I’m going to have to rethink my whole idea of and awards over the years that could be process, because I can not imagine that this will considered lifetime achievement awards—which work!” (Laughter) I’ve never seen such a might sometimes imply that they’re at the end of deliberate—I’m going to steal your words, Phil, their career. But that’s certainly far from the case, but—a focus of energy, and use of energy.

[Music fades out.] 00:00:13 Music Transition “Huddle Formation” from the album Thunder, Lightning, Strike by The Go! Team. A fast, upbeat, peppy song. Music plays as Jesse speaks, then fades out. 00:00:21 Jesse Thorn Host It’s Bullseye. I’m Jesse Thorn. Have you seen Ramy? It’s a show on Hulu. It wrapped up its second season a few months back. It focuses on a guy named Ramy, played by our guest—Ramy Youssef. When the show kicks off, Ramy is in his late ‘20s. Living with his parents in New Jersey. At different times, Ramy wonders what to do about his career; about his love life; his family life—all stuff that’s pretty typical for someone his age. One of the things that makes Ramy the show unique, though, is how it talks about faith. Ramy the character is a practicing Muslim. His relationship with religion is more than just, y’know, like a thing his parents do. [Music fades out entirely.] He prays. He goes to a mosque. He doesn’t drink. Amid the Millennial existential angst and jokes about sex, the show also asks some probing, deep questions about faith. Recently, Ramy was nominate for three Emmys: Best Directing in a Comedy; Best Supporting Actor for the great Mahershala Ali; and Best Actor for Ramy Youssef.
