He also talks about shooting on the streets of Dublin and the film's anti-ending.
The Big Picture From director Fintan Connolly, the Irish crime drama Barber follows private investigator Val Barber , as he’s hired by a wealthy widow to find her missing granddaughter. Dark secrets, corruption and family dysfunction keep throwing him off track, and when Barber finally does uncover the answers he’s seeking, the resolution is something he never saw coming.
AIDAN GILLEN: Good. Me too, particularly with TV. A big part of my upbringing was not bad parenting, but I used to lie in bed watching TV quite a lot when I was a kid. Not because there was anything wrong. It was just because loved it. I loved cop shows and detective shows. They were mostly American ones, like Kojak and Colombo, and that kind of stuff. Also, in latter years, I got into good crime fiction and good real crime. It’s an area of fascination for a lot of people.
Once you had a plot and a sense of who this character was, did it stay that way throughout, or was it constantly evolving, throughout filming? GILLEN: The scruffy gumshoe detective is my style anyway. That’s how I dress and carry myself, so I really wanted to make sure that was there and that we weren’t going overboard on trying to look too nice, which we couldn’t do because we didn’t have any makeup or hair. We couldn’t, partly because of the shooting restrictions. We had to keep it a really tiny crew, and partly because we couldn’t afford it.
One of the things I thought was so interesting about this is that it really also felt like it would make a great TV series, where he could solve a different crime every season. Did you ever think this was a guy that you could play longer and that somebody should give him a TV show? GILLEN: Okay. Well, we’ll definitely work on that then. I think it would have to be low-key. You could have a mixture of low-key stories because 95% of Barber’s jobs would be low-key stuff, but important stuff. The bread and butter is insurance companies, marriage infidelities, missing pets, and crazy stuff. That would be a good story. I’ve got a good story from my own life about a stolen dog that we could maybe do as the next episode.
