Jen Soska: [sarcastic] The rape scene, for sure.

Sylvia Soska: There are a few very key scenes, Howard Hawks always said ‘A good film is three amazing scenes and no bad scenes.’

All of those scenes where she’s [KI] in with another character but that person isn’t saying anything, the whole performance is on how well she does and I was thinking of her as her own Buffalo Bill/Hannibal Lecter kind of scenes.

It was really cool to see those scenes, I was like a little kid. I’d say ‘Well Mary, today is the scene where you do this’ [really excited] and she’s like ‘Yes I know’ [bored].

Jen Soska: There are two scenes, two intimate Buffalo Bill moments with Dr. Grant after the fact, I love those scenes.

Sylvia Soska: The end sequence, I had storyboarded that and obsessed about it.

Jen Soska:  She cried all day.

Sylvia Soska: Actually that was the day that I liked Katie, there’s a picture of me staring at her like [swoons].

Jen Soska: You could see the little hearts over her head.

Sylvia Soska: And I’ve been sadly in love with her ever since.

Jen Soska: For us, our characters are as much real as you and me and actually in some ways they’re more real than normal people.

When you make horror movies, sometimes characters have to ‘kick it’ and for us it’s always a really emotional part. Usually we get it out during the writing but Sylvia decided to bring it with her onto set.
