In between projects, Ramsay Philips took some time to answer a few maswali about his newest film:
Tell us about “The Reunion.”
RAMSAY: “The Reunion” is about three high school Marafiki who go on a weekend getaway but the past comes back to haunt them. One person at the reunion is not who he seems and he is not there for a reunion.
Was it challenging to play twin brothers?
RAMSAY: It was an amazing challenge playing twin brothers. Playing two people in one film is every actors dream and I couldn't be zaidi happy to do it. The biggest thing for me was distinguishing the two brothers from each other. Figuring out who they are and what makes them tick. Sure they're going to have some similar qualities which is natural with twin brothers but they are also going to have some distinct differences between the two. And mining for those similarities and differences is where the challenge lies.
What would wewe consider each of their ‘best’ au ‘worst’ qualities?
RAMSAY: Wow this is an awesome question. Definitely for Nathan his best and worst quality is the same and it is loyalty. He is so loyal he would do anything for some people and unfortunately some people take advantage of that. For Cole it would have to be he's self-centered and manipulative. He only cares about himself and doesn't care about who he hurts in the process.
Any interesting stories from the set wewe can share with us?
RAMSAY: Set was amazing! Everyone from cast and crew were amazing to work with. We filmed at a big house in Carpinteria and every siku at lunch we would rush to eat our chakula so that we could all play soccer on the lawn. We would play keep away, someone would get in the middle and have to steal the ball. The theme song of our set was "Mustang Sally" because the care taker of the property her name was Sally so we would play it every siku before we would film.
What’s the biggest lesson wewe learned from working on this project?
RAMSAY: The biggest lesson I learned on this film is that I can lead a feature film. This experience was so incredible and amazing that I will never forget it. Every night after filming we would all go back to the hotel and hang out and play games. We would hang out on off days kwa the pool, au go to Santa Barbara, au to the beach.
And, now just for fun:
Who’s your inayopendelewa actor/actress?
RAMSAY: I can't name wewe just one so I gotta go with Leo, Denzel, Meryl, Daniel siku Lewis, and the Toms, Tom Hanks and Tom Hardy. They are all incredible and really bring their characters to life and wewe get Lost watching their performances.
What role from the past do wewe wish wewe could have played?
RAMSAY: Oooohh wow this is a great question. It would have to be Jack from "Titanic" au Travis Bickle from "Taxi Driver." Two completely different but two amazing roles I would have loved to play.
Favorite movie au TV onyesha from your childhood.
RAMSAY: My inayopendelewa movie from childhood and still to this siku is "Titanic." This is the film that did it for me. I watched this and I alisema I wanted to be an actor. The upendo story and everything about this film is incredible and It's why Leo is one of my inayopendelewa actors.
Tell us one thing that would surprise our readers to learn about you.
RAMSAY: Celine Dion is my inayopendelewa singer of all time. She is incredible. My mom would always be playing Celine Dion around the house and in the car so we didn't have a choice but to fall in upendo with her. wewe can feel the passion she sings with. wewe can feel every word. Then when she came out with "My moyo Will Go On" my upendo for her only grew.
