Director Ari Aster did a Q&A at the surprise early screening of his film.
-moderated Q&A, during which he shared that Phoenix fainted and “fell out of frame” while filming a scene with Patti LuPone for the A24 movie. “I was really pissed ’cause it was a really good take. It felt confusing so I went around the corner and he was collapsed,” Aster reportedly said. “I knew it was bad because he was letting people touch him and people were tending to him and he was allowing it.
The point is that he fainted in somebody else’s take, he wasn’t on camera and he was helping them, he was in it for them to the point where he collapsed.” Nathan Lane, Amy Ryan, Kylie Rogers, Denise Ménochet, Parker Posey, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Richard Kind, Hayley Squires, and Michael Gandolfini also star.
