Yeah thanks for nothing. iPlayer doesn't work for anyone outside the UK...

Every interview I’ve seen him do is great. Press must be tiring and almost boring at times, but he keeps it fresh and always puts the actors at ease. Excellent job!

He's really good

Totally. It’s one of those films I constantly think about since watching.

Same. And now also this movie, All of us strangers.

@@anabeatrizdias5293 ok?

Really don’t want him to be stuck with a Bond franchise- think he’s better than that

Oh God I saw that at the cinema! The ending was deserved TBF

I didn't pick up on that comment as being disturbing or even strange. He is drawn to scripts that are emotional and explore sad themes, and he likes seeing that the audience is emotionally connecting to what he's made, and sometimes that's expressed through crying. I was sobbing at the end of 'All of us strangers' but I also felt encouraged and motivated to make positive changes after watching it, so it didn't result in feeling miserable just because I was crying. I think Paul Mescal comes across as a sensitive, emotionally intelligent guy but I did find it interesting to read your comment and see how perceptions can be so different.

Thanks for your reaction and I see your point to an extent. The thing is, I believe that there are multiple ways to feel motivated and make positive changes - being sensitive, I believe, doesn't mean only "sensing" what brings pain. A true artist has not only the ability but should also have the desire to evoke the emotions you described by perhaps making the audience laugh, feel hope, be empowered, be uplifted, get excited, be afraid, get inspired, etc. and those possibilities don't just grow from tears. I, too, cried at the end of the film, as I did watching Afterburn, and Normal People. His talent is undeniable. I simply need to separate that talent from what my experience working with young people for many years is a red flag for him as a person - in short, there's nothing wrong with being pleased by watching audience reaction to his "sad" films but I truly believe he should be just as excited about seeing the same response from things that don't necessarily start from making us sad.@@TheLadyDelirium
