Michael Fassbender.\u00a0 In a Western.\u00a0 And a scene in which we see the \u201cFabulous Fassy\u201d in a wet, clinging, white union suit.\u00a0 Do I have your attention ladies?\u00a0 Well, that\u2019s just one image you can expect in John Maclean\u2019s SLOW WEST.\u00a0 Other images include breathtaking cinematography from Robbie Ryan showcasing the beauty and depth of 1870’s Colorado (for which New Zealand serves as a perfect doppleganging substitute), lensed with the early widescreen format – 1.66:1- which audiences first saw with Paramount\u2019s \u201cShane\u201d in 1953, not to mention a meticulously crafted story with indelible performances from the likes of Kodi Smit-McPhee, Ben Mendelsohn and Caren Pistorius.\u00a0 One look at SLOW WEST and one is transported back in time, immersed in cinematic beauty and scope, and loving every second of it.<\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\n

As the puppy dog eyed young Scotsman, Jay Cavendish, Kodi Smit-McPhee seamlessly makes the transition into more adult roles and goes toe-to-toe with Michael Fassbender.\u00a0\u00a0 Cavendish is in love with the lovely Scottish lass, Rose Ross, who together with her father, is on the run and heads to the American West to start a new life.\u00a0 Determined to spend his life with Rose, unbeknownst to her, the wide-eyed innocent Jay also heads across the Atlantic and across the territory to Colorado.<\/p>\n

Ill-equipped emotionally, physically and intellectually for the quest, Jay runs afoul of Union officers and Native Americans alike, until rescued by Silas Selleck.\u00a0 A frontiersman and bounty hunter who runs with no one but himself, Silas offers to serve as Jay\u2019s guide; for a price.\u00a0 Realizing he needs the help, Jay agrees to Silas\u2019 offer.\u00a0 But what Jay doesn\u2019t know is that Silas is looking to collect the bounty on the heads of Rose and her father and sees Jay as his ticket to the promised land.<\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\n

Moving ever westward, the two men develop a bond, but always with some give and take and trepidation and mistrust involved.\u00a0 Along the way, the story of the Old West unfolds with its beauty, its hardships, its immigrant and Native American displacement, its moral codes and rules of engagement, all told through the people and events Jay and Silas encounter; among them, a meet up with band of Congolese musicians, and then a Swedish man robbing a local store to feed his family.\u00a0 As shocking as a bloody-shoot proves to be, even more disturbing are the now orphaned children Jay and Silas see standing outside the store waiting for their parents who will never return.\u00a0 The images are so powerful as to be deafening.\u00a0 And then there\u2019s Payne, a man who clearly has had previous run-ins with Silas, but maintains a mutual respect as he now heads up his own gang of outlaws, also seeking that bounty on Rose Ross and her father.<\/p>\n

With minimal dialogue, Fassbender\u2019s depth comes from tacit conviction and a deepening on-screen, almost paternal, bond with Smit-McPhee\u2019s Jay.\u00a0 The truth within the characters and the story and the performances from Fassbender and Smit-McPhee immerse us in time and place.\u00a0 Equally tough and tender are nights around campfires or Silas teaching Jay how to shave like a man.\u00a0 At every turn, we see hardship and challenges turn into strength and joy.<\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\n

Having previously worked on two short films with Fassbender, Maclean knew of his interest in collaborating on scripts.\u00a0 \u201c[Although] I wrote the script with this great script editor back in England, I had a few days with Michael to really riff, and enjoy and read and talk.\u00a0 It really helps not just with his character but the plot or anything.\u00a0 Something can stick.\u00a0 And then you get on set and you\u2019ve got his skill on set.\u201d<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/John-Maclean-Clip-Four.wav<\/a><\/audio>\n

EXCLUSIVE:\u00a0\u00a0 John Maclean talks working with Michael Fassbender<\/strong><\/p>\n

Written and directed by John Maclean, the story is tight, well crafted and constructed with a core essence that is more about a search for self-discovery and love than the Old West itself.\u00a0 Having said that, however, there is no time more perfect as a setting to explore those themes than 1890’s western United States.\u00a0 Characters resonate with rich texture.\u00a0 Although initially resisting having any voiceover, Maclean ultimately elected to employ the technique with Fassbender\u2019s Silas to provide some continuity.\u00a0 The result is cohesive and unintrusive.<\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\n

Important to Maclean was that he stay true to the westerns of old, the classics from the likes of John Ford, Howard Hawks, George Stevens, Fred Zinneman.\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cI think the hey day for me was \u201cRed River\u201d, \u201cClementine\u201d, \u201cShane\u201d, \u201cHigh Noon\u201d.\u00a0 I did want this classical approach.\u00a0 I did deliberately not move the camera and have deep focus.\u00a0 A lot of those films – some of them were very noir, noirish westerns.\u00a0 So I did think I wanted to put it in that classic style and maybe stay away from the spaghetti westerns and the modern day, kind of pulp stuff.\u201d\u00a0 Rewatching beloved classics, Maclean found many to be love stories and melodramas, something he was keen to incorporate into his story.\u00a0 \u201cIt felt like I was in familiar territory there.\u00a0 The rest of it was from I was travelling America.\u00a0 As soon as I was out of college I wanted to travel America, maybe from my love of American cinema.\u00a0 So it felt like a European or Scottish guy that come out to the west and travel around, could have that fresh approach; have that tourist view.\u201d<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/John-Maclean-Clip-One.wav<\/a><\/audio>\n

EXCLUSIVE:\u00a0 John Maclean talks about creating SLOW WEST<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\n

Working closely with cinematographer Robbie Ryan, the two utilized storyboards Maclean had laboriously prepared.\u00a0 Describing his technique as \u201ca little bit different because I kind of write almost playing the film in my head. . .I storyboarded the whole film myself just in my room.\u00a0 It took months! [laughing] It seems to be the only way [for me]. . .That\u2019s how you make a film.\u00a0 Everything was ridiculously rigidly storyboarded.\u00a0 Every shot was pretty much as we could see it in storyboards, it\u2019s the same as what ended up.\u00a0 Not taking anything away from Robbie.\u00a0 He was so busy, I had to go out and location scout without him.\u00a0 So it was very much a case of trying to match the locations I was seeing with what I had written – like Silver Birch Forest and the wedge in the rock that a buffalo could get trapped in, or a plain.\u00a0 I was just seeing them in New Zealand.\u00a0 It almost would have been tougher to find them in Colorado probably because they were just there.\u00a0 There was a rock a buffalo could get trapped in.\u00a0 That was amazing.\u00a0 Then when Robbie came out and saw the locations that I had chosen and nailed for the production, he was happy.\u00a0 Robbie is all about light, as every DOP should be.\u00a0 He was just \u201cAAAH!\u00a0 The light.\u00a0 This is gonna be amazing!\u201d\u00a0 Then when we went over the style that I wanted, there were certain rules – like the deep focus and the fixed camera.\u00a0 Then that allowed Robbie to just have a field day with how it was all lit.\u00a0 It was just a great collaboration.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\nhttp:\/\/behindthelensonline.net\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/John-Maclean-Clip-Two.wav<\/a><\/audio>\n

EXCLUSIVE:\u00a0 John Maclean on Storyboarding<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although both Maclean and Ryan were keen to shoot on film, due to the closing of the last film lab in New Zealand, they were more or less forced to go digital.\u00a0 Once the medium was in place, \u201cRobbie convinced me to shoot day-for-night for a lot of the night scenes.\u00a0 That was a stroke of genius.\u00a0 So when we started looking at the day-for-night stuff, on digital it started looking great.\u00a0 Even the night stuff, the one or two night stuff, digital immerses almost better. . .We really played to the digital strength.\u00a0 I was very conscious of not making a retro-looking thing.\u00a0 I gave lots of references to Robbie about the color of films that is saturated.\u00a0 . .I had a meeting and I said to everyone, \u2018I don\u2019t want this to get to a brown western.\u2019<\/p>\n

Calling on Maclean\u2019s own musical background, SLOW WEST has a lyricism to it that is comfortable and embracing like the ebb and flow of a rippling creek or the slow ride of a horse on the trail.\u00a0 And speaking of musical, Jed Kurzel\u2019s score blends elements of numerous immigrant tones to create a rich eclectic complement to the world we see unfolding.<\/p>\n

\"slow<\/a><\/p>\n

But beyond the story, beyond the performances, there are Robbie Ryan\u2019s visuals.\u00a0 One look and we feel like we\u2019re in John Ford\u2019s beloved Monument Valley.\u00a0 A climactic shoot-out in a golden field of wheat set against a small homestead is so viscerally lensed and crisply choreographed that one can almost feel the spray of buckshot and bullets. The widescreen lensing gives SLOW WEST an epic feel while a saturated color palette creates a sense of heightened realism, a surreal sense that captures the uncertainty and wonder of this new world.<\/p>\n
