“Reading the script it’s quite clear the moments when he’s vulnerable. The scene in the rain, until then he’s just unlikable, and that’s quite correct. Because he’s a dick. He doesn’t say anything nice about anybody, he doesn’t look at anybody. He makes a little bit of an effort in the scene at the piano when he explains why he can’t talk to people. But it’s the scene in the rain, that car crash scene where everything goes so badly when he tells her he loves her, that’s when you like him. That’s a big thing for him to say. Now to us it seems very snobbish to say, ‘I’ve been big enough to get over the fact that your parents are naff, and I love you despite my rank and the inferiority of your birth.’ Then it would be such a huge and generous thing to say “.
