1. Script for Question 2
K: Hello and welcome, today I’m joined here by Jack Waterman, Matt
Appleyard and Mathew Bray, thethree leading actors for the
ParamountPicturesproduction, Snakein The Grass. (Turnsto the 3
actors) Starting with you Jack, how do you feel like Tony Pensiero
represented a particular social group through the script and your
own performance?
(CameraZooms in on Jack)
J: Personally Ibelieve that Tony was portrayed asa strong figure,
clearly moreexperienced than the peoplethat he was seen with in
the differentscenes. He comes across as a calm man at first, but then
shows how ruthless and truly terrifyinghe can be.
(Zooms back out to everyone)
K: Thank you Jack, and you Matt? How do you feel that your
character portrayed the social group that he is in?
(Zooms in on Matt)
MA: Well Kenya, I think that my character came across as a rather
kind and friendly character that his workforcewould happily work
beneath. When I was acting I tried to show SGT Larkin as a man that
was friendly butwould still try his best to get the job done, no matter
how stern that would mean being with people.

K: Thank you Matt, and finally weget to you Mathew. How do you
think you represented DominicHudson within the film?
(Zooms in on Mathew)
MB: I tried to take the character of DominicHudson and represent
him as shy duringthe street scene, I did this to try and show that he
was new to detective work and the concept of murder and power. I
juxtaposed this in the monologueby making him sound confident
with what he was talking about what he had done. I also tried to
make him seem slightly eager in the office scene to try and show that
2. he wasexcited to work on a big case but not to eager as he would still
be nervouswith the amountof pressureplaced upon him at that
momentin time.

there wehave it. 3 Actors opinionson how they believe that their
