Craig Roberts We dated method for two years
Craig Roberts interviewed by Kevin Durham, 16 March 2011. 1m 11s on tape.
In this interview Craig Roberts & Yasmin Paige talk about their on-set chemistry when they were filming Submarine. The year was 2009, and the Welsh coastline served as the backdrop for *Submarine*, a coming-of-age film destined to become a cult favorite. But behind the scenes, something far more magical was happening. The two leads, Craig Roberts and Yasmin Paige, were cast as awkward teenagers Oliver Tate and Jordana Bevan, grappling with the nuances of first love. Little did they know, their own story of budding romance would soon unfold—one that blurred the line between fiction and reality.
What's on the tape
A transcript, made by machine from the audio and tidied up. It gets names and the odd word wrong, so treat it as a way to find the bit you want rather than as a quotation. Every timestamp jumps to that moment in the video.
0:01 On-screen seemed so intense and it really felt like there was a bond between you guys and how did you get such a great bond did you spend time together beforehand. We went out we started dating method for like two years before the film started no tears no we saw we did a screen test together and we didn't really know what was going. On in the screen test we didn't know if we had the part or if we didn't I thought we thought we were standing for other people. Just so they could see what the film looks like so I think we connected there and so it was very quiet anyway so we can talk. Without talking that make sense yeah I don't know I think we sort of we when you spend a lot of time with someone you sort of learn how to sort.
0:41 Of you just like becoming rhythm with each other I suppose sort of like not really like you know kind like a married couple but just sort of you know in the sense like eat well but you know like in the sense like ooh just because we it was just a. Throughout the whole thing they sort of just like sort of get a rhythm and then you sort of know how the other one is and like you I don't. Know and just you do become close and great friends and sort of learn how to get on with each other and not.
