Actress Esther Kuhn's dream come true - first book
In 2002 I wrote my diploma thesis - in a 'monkey's tooth', as they say in Austria, really quickly, but very carefully. For months I did nothing other than research, sit in the university library, write, people interviewing, writing, correcting, writing, and correcting again, sometimes all night long (I didn't have a child back then :)) Four months later I was finished. I had an interview with Michael Haneke, Dr. Veit Heiduschka, Markus Schleinzer and other employees of 'The Piano Player'. At that point I had already filmed a little bit, but not much, and I wanted to use this Austrian film, which was so successful at the time, to teach myself how film production and film creation works. We actors do castings or are cast directly and then we join the production at a late stage of preparation (if at all) or just on our shooting day - and at that point all the preparation has already happened. After our filming days, we might come back to the studio for dubbing. T
