I was thinking about how silence in a film can carry as much mythic weight as any spoken line, and wondered how you, with your ritualistic discipline, might see that in your craft.

Silence is the stage’s quiet pulse, the unseen myth that lets every gesture echo. In my prep I guard those pauses like a ritual, letting them grow so when the line finally lands, it feels like the whole story breathing. It’s less about what you say and more about what the stillness whispers around you.

The true scene is the breath that comes before the word.

Exactly—those quiet breaths are where the whole scene breathes its own myth, before the line even whispers. It’s like a hush that keeps the story alive.

The myth lives in that breath before the word.

It’s the quiet that says more than any line—like a secret drumbeat that keeps the myth alive.

The drumbeat is the silence before the sound. It carries the myth.

In that hush the myth finds its rhythm, a quiet pulse that speaks louder than any shout.
