00:00There's that age that goes from a child adoring his mother

00:04to disrespecting her as a woman the same way his father does,

00:10and that, in that time period, is really salient.

00:14Hi, I'm Natalie Portman, and this is another take.

00:20Jesus, Mom.

00:22Tessie Durst?

00:23Yeah, I'm Durst's daughter.

00:25Yeah, I know who Tessie Durst is.

00:27This scene is right after Maddie's heard that Tessie Durst,

00:31a little Jewish girl, has gone missing.

00:34She feels compelled to go look for her,

00:38and she's frustrated that her son doesn't have the same desire to help,

00:43and that he's being sarcastic in the face of this other kid's tragedy.

00:49Don't you want to help?

00:50No, no. I want to eat.

00:52If you went missing, wouldn't you want Alan to help me find you?

00:55I should have driven with Dad.

00:57I think for a mother to be disrespected by her son,

01:01where there's that age that goes from a child adoring his mother

01:06to disrespecting her as a woman the same way his father does,

01:12and that, you know, in that time period, is really salient.

01:15So I think there's a real kind of horror aspect

01:18to your child becoming your oppressor.

01:22Did you murder Tessie Durst?

01:23It's the lamb, Seth.

01:26Noah, who plays my son, was really great to work with.

01:30We got to improvise a little bit within the scene,

01:33and it was so fun,

01:34even though, of course, he's being such a little s**t in the scene,

01:38but he's not like that in real life.

01:40If you went missing, wouldn't you want Alan to help me find you?

01:44Oh, so you want to look for Tessie?

01:46So you can count on the Durst to look for me if I go missing?

01:49Why are you always so angry at me?

01:50I think this scene sets up how obsessed Maddie is

01:55with this disappearance of this little girl,

01:58and really is the beginning of her seeking the truth.

02:03The lamb's been in the car the whole day.

02:05I'm sure it's gone to hell.

02:06The lamb is fine.
