Joel Kinnaman smiling during The Silent Hour interview
The Silent Hour tells the story of a Boston detective who is injured on the job, leaving him with permanent hearing loss. When he is tasked with interpreting for a deaf witness to a brutal gang murder, the two find themselves cornered in a soon-to-be-condemned apartment building with killers hot on their tail. Packed with action and suspense, it is a heart-pounding film from start to finish.
Joel Kinnaman Learned ASL For The Silent Hour "That was one of the big challenges going into this." Screen Rant: Did you know American Sign Language already? Or did you have to learn it for The Silent Hour? It really was what drew me to the film. It's such a gift to get to be pulled into a whole community like this. That lives life in a certain way, and understanding their challenges and how they live their life and the beauty of their community. It was pretty exhilarating.
Joel Kinnaman: That's sort of the tradition that I come from. With acting, the highest version of the craft is where you're always trying to do as different roles as possible. But then, when your career starts chugging along, the way the Hollywood works, and the way people's imagination works is when they're casting a new project, they try to think of whoever they've seen in that role.
Joel Kinnaman: That's been such an exceptional experience. It's really difficult to play aging, especially when you're doing it as the lead of a show, and you're not just doing an epilogue scene at the end of a film, but you're actually driving scenes. I actually found the in-between ages like 60 were more difficult than 80. Because with 80 you can really lean into the aging.
