Emily Blunt on the similarities between Christopher Nolan and Steven Spielberg:
"I find them both incredibly courageous, very bold, able to handle a massive mythic world. But look, one's very British and one is very much not. Chris is like a lot of members of my family, so that was very familiar territory to me. Even though he's actually very tender with actors, there's a no-nonsense, laser-beam throughline of communication, no softening the blows. Brits don't enthuse about anything, really, because it's perceived as gushy, so Chris is like a Blunt to me.
But there's an instinctual thing that they both have. Even though Steven wears it more on his sleeve, something drops in on both of them, like they are touched. You never see either of them with their head in their hands, like, 'How are we going to shoot this?,' ever."
