[2008-7-31]

Tag : Cell Phone Conference Call

Q: When you play characters this deep for so long and then it stopshow much of that stays with you for life? Does it impact yourpersonality in some way for life?
DD: That's a very interesting question and I wouldn't know how toanswer it. I mean, it impacts your life because strangers can seeyou that way. I'll sit here and I'll answer questions about thisfictional person and so it stays with me in that way. I wouldn'tsay that I ever get up and think of Mulder unless I'm working onit. I think that I liked a lot about the guy. When I played him Iliked his courage and I liked his energy to get to the truth and tothe quest and all of that and I think that at one point I'd learneda little from that, like a fan might. I was a fan of the guy. Sothat's as far as I go in terms of saying that he lives in me.
GA: It's the same for me. I don't do things, mannerisms or somethingand think, "Oh, that was kind of like Scully." But by the sametoken I don't know how much of me today wasn't influenced by thefact that I got to play her for such a long time. It's possiblethat there are aspects of my seriousness or my independence or myinquisitiveness about the medical profession or science orsomething that aren't directly related to the fact that I livedwith her for such a long time. But that's hard to qualify and hardto say.
DD: When Gillian operates on a human being&
GA: That's when I'm reminded of Scully.
Q: Gillian, Scully was always rocking a cell phone way beforeeveryone else.
GA: Rocking a cell phone? Is that what you said?
Q: Yes, always on the cell phone and using it. What's your ownrelationship to your cell phone, and how do you think that thecharacter has informed strong female law enforcement characters?
GA: I think I only ever talked to Mulder on that cell phone. I don'tthink that there were any conversation that was ever had withanyone else except for Mulder, if you remember.
