How different was making Casanova from Brokeback?
Venice was a lot of fun. It’s such an incredible city. It feels like it should only exist in dreams, in the imagination. Taking that role was a real lifestyle decision. We didn’t have to take ourselves, acting or even Casanova himself very seriously. We kind of borrowed his name and his legend to have some fun with it: Kick up our heels, drink wine, eat pasta, play around … So you took this character home with you, too. It was a pleasure to take him home!
