| Where the Wild Things Are Interviews: Max Records | |
|
MV: You get to do a lot of running about and smashing things. Do you have lots of fun on set doing that? Max Records: Well there was a lot of smashing and crashing around for all who were involved. The environment on the set didn’t really feel like a workplace. It felt like a bunch of people had got together to experiment with really really expensive equipment. We were beating the expensive equipment with sticks. MV: Which was your favourite character? And who was the scariest? MR: My favourite is probably Douglas. He’s more steady and even headed, more so than the other. Scariest…probably the dragon from the book.
MV: What traits do you share with the Max in the movie? MV: Have you read Where the Wild Things Are? MR: That book is kind of a staple in my family for young kids. My parents started reading it to me when I was super super young and as soon as I was learning to read I was reading it myself.
