And suddenly... I mean, I don't know why, while making the film he realised that it was an odious character. So he kept annoying Alfredo saying, 'No, I shouldn't be hitting her with a whip, it doesn't look good'. So he was becoming a guy who wasn't very... well, who was violent but who wasn't a bastard. In the end... I mean, he was one of the reasons the film didn't go very well.
Et brusquement, je veux dire je ne sais pas pourquoi, d'un seul coup en tournant le film il s'est rendu compte que c'était un odieux personnage. Alors il n'arrêtait pas de faire chier Alfredo pour lui dire, 'Non, je devrais pas lui taper dessus à coups de fouet, ça fait moche'. Alors il devenait un mec qui était pas trop, enfin qui était brutal mais qui n'était pas une salope finie. Finalement, je veux dire il a fait partie de ceux qui ont fait que le film s'est mal passé.
