He also discussed why he&#8217;s not keen to delve too far into his preparation process:<\/p>\n<p><i>I kind of think that we might be getting into this era where it\u2019s like the old thing of the snake that eats its own tail. I think we\u2019re getting so hung up on process and the behind-the-scenes thing that we\u2019re blowing the magic trick of it all. I actually think we\u2019re starting to have this tendency to talk about how we did it before we\u2019ve even put it out. I had an experience recently where there was something I was sort of interested in seeing, and I saw so many goddamn clips about the makeup process, I was just like: It\u2019s just cooked for me now. They\u2019ve cooked it.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>&#8230;I\u2019m just starting to feel all of us should just leave people alone. Like, leave \u2019em alone; let \u2019em watch the piece. Because I am an audience member, and I want mystery. I want illusion.<\/p>\n<p>He also likens it to Bob Dylan&#8217;s own reluctance to let people behind the curtain, so to speak. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Variety\/status\/1875610525872128094\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com\/129805536.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Edward Norton on why he doesn&#8217;t want to discuss his prep work for &#8220;A Complete Unknown&#8221;: &#8220;We\u2019re getting so hung up on process and the behind-the-scenes thing that we\u2019re blowing the magic trick of it all.
