Matt Damon on writing TheLastDuel with Ben Affleck: 'We wrote it like professional writers, rather than actors trying to write themselves roles.”
“What had kept us from writing all these years was that we thought it was too time intensive,” Damon toldBut we found that we could drop the kids off and meet up to write for four hours. It was easy. I’d go home at night and be lying in bed making notes on what we wrote, and I’d think, ‘Wow, this is pretty good. We’ve got six pages today.’ Before we knew it, we had 20, then 40, then 60.”, Damon was in New York to celebrate the U.S. premiere of “Stillwater,” held at Jazz at Lincoln Center.
In the movie—loosely inspired by the Amanda Knox case — Damon plays ‘roughneck’ oil rig worker from Oklahoma who travels to France to right his daughter’s wrongful murder conviction. At times a slow-simmering French drama rather than an American investigative thriller, “Stillwater” is led by a protagonist who isn’t a globetrotting Jason Bourne killing machine, but a screw-up American dropped in Marseille with no skills to complete his mission.
“I was working with two French writers, and they had a very unique perspective on America,” said McCarthy. “We started thinking about America’s moral authority in the world. In movies, that’s often a man on a mission. ‘I’m going to get it right. I’m going to get it done.’ But we don’t live in that world anymore,” he continued.
