Behind the scenes of:
Irish DreamTimes’s The Matador


Standing on a snow-covered street in the suburbs of Mexico City, hoping our fake snow doesn’t melt.


Wilma Gomez, our beautiful focus puller, who could hold a focus at a mile a way and still be sharp, measures Mr. Kinnear and I for our “two shot”.


Practicing my moody look #1


Moody look #2 -the actor prepares


Greg Kinnear and I take Hope Davis out for dinner her first night in Mexico City.


Our day off.


Beau, Amanda and I on a day off at the canals in Xochimilco.


Rick Provenzano and Bron Roylance, two of my oldest mates. We've worked together since the early days of Remington Steel.


The brothers Bryan and Sean Furst are producing partners on the film. Beau Marie, our line producer Adam Merims and I have to say thanks to Brian and Sean for bringing us this material. And thanks to Adam who saved the day at the 11th hour and made this film feel like a walk in the park for us all.


The 'we finished the movie' dance. Bryan Furst, Amanda Scarano, Sean Furst, Beau St. Clair, Pierce and Adam Merims.


Beau Marie, Richard Fox (our first AD) and I. Richard did a great job on a tight schedule with many moves and hard locations. Top man!


David Tattersall, whom I had worked with on “Die Another Day” and who gave of himself to this great adventure. He made us all feel better about ourselves each day at work.


All smiles and fond memories in a great place called Mexico City, but it is time to say goodbye…our last day of shooting.


Richard Shepard (who wrote and directed the Matador) and I became friends quickly. And, I’m happy to say we remained friends throughout filming and after the filming. He was relentless in his passion for the film every moment of each day we worked together.


Paging Mr. Noble
