The camaraderie on David O. Russell’s ‘Amsterdam’ set was “an unbelievable safe space,” according to star Mike Myers. “I felt like I could walk through a wall.”
Stiller gushed about how Russell opens himself up and “is very vulnerable” as a director on set, and clearly loved the movie. Indeed, he talked with so much enthusiasm about his interpretation of various scenes that he barely let some of the other actors speak. Malek even mugged to the audience at one point when Stiller cut him off mid-response, but I got the impression no one was too upset.
Robbie said that working with David O. Russell meant that a typical phone call was either “five minutes or six hours,” but she treasured their conversations about the nature of friendship and art, the two things that most drive her character. She added that coming to Russell’s set means not knowing what you are going to shoot each day. “It’s terrifying, but also exhilarating, and puts you in a place where you can find a part of yourself as an artist you haven’t tapped into before.
The story has elements of actual history to it and Russell said the movie was 50 to 60 percent true. The script, however, emerged from Russell and Christian Bale wanting to create an original set of characters and “backing into history.
