SPEAKER_02 0:33

Hey everyone, my name is Shane A. Bassett, your host, here for another edition of Cine Critique. I'm stoked you have tuned in or downloaded or listened to this podcast maybe previously, but more importantly, right now, because you're here because of the movie Obsession. You can find me on social media at movie underscore analyst. You can hear me on the radio, you can see me on TV occasionally talking movies and entertainment. But right now it's all about obsession and Indy Neveretti. I had a chat with her. Now, this movie Obsession, if you haven't seen it yet, please watch it before you listen to this interview. It is kind of not huge spoilers, although there is a lot of talking around things and spoilers ahead. There are some things that get brought up uh that you might find very interesting. And I know many people have seen this movie already. It is getting viewed multiple times by people, including myself. I've seen it twice. I'm going to watch it again this week as we speak, and um I'm picking up things well the second time, and I'm sure I'll pick up more things the third time. Carrie Barker, the director, writer, he is on fire, and so he should be. The recognition, the accolades that he's getting for this movie at Blum House are on board. They're releasing it among others in Australia. It's the Rialto Distribution Company, Australia, New Zealand. Anyway, you're here to listen to Indy and I have a chat about obsession.

SPEAKER_04 2:15

Have you ever actually like flirted with Nikki?

SPEAKER_05 2:18

I'm gonna go get some shots.

SPEAKER_04 2:19

I'll come with you. If she means this much to you. And I know she does. To say, Nikki, I think we should grab a drink sometime. Nikki, wait, I was gonna ask you, um what uh I I lost my train of thought. I couldn't why one wish we'll love. You only get one lush. I wish Nikki Freeman loved me more than anyone in the entire world.

SPEAKER_05 2:59

I love you sock, sock, sock, sock so much. I love only the branch of a willow tree could collect her.

SPEAKER_00 3:13

It's weird how you two are dating alongside. Like super dating.

SPEAKER_04 3:20

I think I think he's going through something. Hey, it's not gonna be ball. I was calling to see if there's a way I can cancel a wish. Oh sorry, we all really do that. So she's just stuck like this forever?

unknown 4:19

Oh, yeah, I mean as long as you live.

SPEAKER_04 4:21

As long as I live.

SPEAKER_02 4:26

Uh yes. So besides Indy as Nikki, you've got Cooper Tomlinson as Ian. Uh Megan Lawless, who I really enjoy this performance from her as Sarah. Uh yeah, it's I'm really not going to say anything else if you need to see the movie. Uh Michael Johnston as a bear, who is just awful, but he's meant to be, and uh he gets under your skin, and uh he's a character that I just want to punch, and I don't like punching anyone. I love Haley Fitzgerald in this because as Viola one scene, one scene only, and I kept hoping she'd come back. You'll know exactly what that scene is when it happens. Go Haley Fitzgerald and Andy Ricker. Uh look, he's interesting too and quite funny. They work in a uh the the friends, the full friends all work in a music shop and uh electronics slash music shop is an interesting setup. I love that side of things and everything about this movie really captured my attention. Audiences uh uh freaking out. I'm hearing stories of people just uh talking and mumbling and and just worming up in their seats in the cinema. Now there is a fine line between cinema etiquette and you are going to see a horror movie, but it is one if you know nothing about it, which you shouldn't before you see the film, uh it will really make you jump to say the least. And I think you create a discussion at the end. Uh you'll be talking about it, you'll be uh thinking about what's right, what's wrong, uh, and uh yeah, everything in between. It's a terrific movie, uh obsession, enjoying my conversation with uh Indy. And like I said, there's a few spoilers. Watch the movie first before you check out our conversation. And to lead into that, here's a little bit of a a song that appears in the movie. I hope you like it.

SPEAKER_01 6:24

From the soundtrack in the movie obsession, televisions by current joys. It's a song that appears during a very pivotal scene.

SPEAKER_02 7:04

Hey Indy, I'm Shane. It is absolutely awesome to meet you.

SPEAKER_03 7:09

Hi Shane, it's lovely to meet you too.

SPEAKER_02 7:11

First of all, are you a cat person at all?

SPEAKER_03 7:15

Yeah. Have you seen a few of them run by?

SPEAKER_02 7:20

I was wondering about that, just in general.

SPEAKER_03 7:22

So Yes, I am a cat person.

SPEAKER_02 7:27

Uh look, I'll start by this, uh, because being an Australian, uh, I I just was really stoked to find out that your mum is Aussie. Uh yeah, so your heritage is half Australian. How how awesome?

SPEAKER_03 7:40

Yeah. It's oh no, it's it's I think Australian and Mexican, I am extremely lucky. I think they're some of the best.

SPEAKER_02 7:49

What where did she where is she from? And uh, you know, like does does she take you back to Australia? Have you been here?

SPEAKER_03 7:56

Oh yeah, we I I was just there, not this Christmas, but the Christmas ago.

unknown 8:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 8:01

Um, because obviously it's summertime, which is my favorite, that I could celebrate Christmas and get a tan at the same time. Um, and so my family lives on the Gold Coast, um, and then also more specifically, um, in Ipswich. Fantastic.

SPEAKER_02 8:16

Yeah, I know it really well. Uh great place, Queensland. I think I'll end up there one day. Uh fantastic. Oh, really good to hear. And uh, I'm from Sydney, so that's you know a little bit different to the Brisbane.

SPEAKER_03 8:30

Oh, nice. I've always um really quickly, I don't know if you know this, but your camera is blurry. I don't know if if you wanna I just want to make sure that you've got some good there. We are perfect. Um that's perfect.

SPEAKER_02 8:45

I've moved a bit closer. Maybe that's it.

SPEAKER_03 8:49

That's what it is.

SPEAKER_02 8:50

Maybe it's best on but it's probably a good idea on blurry. I'm not a very good looking guy, but I do know myself.

SPEAKER_03 8:55

Shut up. You're looking mighty dapper today. Um, I love Sydney. I mean, okay, actually let me rephrase. I do love Sydney. I've never been there. So I guess I can't really say I love something that I've never been. However, I just think it's so beautiful and I really want to go to the opera house. Like I just I know I'm gonna love it as soon as I'm there. I just haven't had the opportunity.

SPEAKER_02 9:16

Is is stage acting something you've done in the past or you're interested in? Because you know, obviously there's a lot of plays and uh and theater.

SPEAKER_03 9:24

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I have never um done it really. I did like a play in in middle school, but um, it's definitely something that I'm interested in because especially with this film learning how to do things that you've never done before um and doing them, it just I don't know, it it makes you feel like a more roundabout or like a fully formed person. So I definitely want to try theater for sure.

SPEAKER_02 9:50

Well, if you ever make it to the opera house on stage, I'm gonna be one of those people in that front row, knowing that I I sort of wished it on, I manifested it.

SPEAKER_03 10:00

Yeah. Nice. Oh, well, thank you.

SPEAKER_02 10:03

Um, so this movie is gonna blow up uh obsession. Did you sort of have that idea that this might happen and resonate while you were actually making it?

SPEAKER_03 10:14

No, not in the slightest. We kind of um everybody on the film for the most part, I think there was one or two people that were um older, but everybody was under 30. Yeah. Um, and so it was so nice because it was Curry's first feature that he was making with the production studio. It was the first time I was ever stepping out of my comfort zone and leading a film. Um, you know, so it was there was just so many moments where we both really wanted to prove ourselves and to really do as much um to kind of show what we were capable of. So whenever we were on set, we really just had everybody working at 110 to make sure that they were doing our best. Like Vivian Gray, who's our production um who is our arts department, cut off part of her mullet for Bear's hair. Because there's a moment in the film where this technically isn't a spoiler, but Nikki does some crazy stuff, and one of the things that she might do is to cut off Bear's hair. And so I remember um her running into the hair and makeup room and being like, does anybody have scissors? And you know, cutting off um her hair. So at the time we were having so much fun, and it was such an indie film that it was never a part of our brains of like it's gonna become this big massive thing. Um, but the fact that it has has made all of us kind of really giddy because to be so proud of your own work and then for have people to have people be like, oh my god, that's amazing, it just kind of adds to this overflowing well that I think is just filling all of our cups.

SPEAKER_02 11:50

Oh well, you totally deserve the praise. I mean, uh you have a real you have a great ensemble, but as Nikki, did you have to book the role differently? Was it a different audition process because you have such multi-personalities, or or were you picked for the role?

SPEAKER_03 12:06

Um, I went through the audition process um with a few other girls. Um and I first sent in an audition tape, and then they watched that, and then we did a chemistry, not a chemistry read, we did a callback via Zoom. And I remember being so nervous. Um, and I remember recalling being like, yeah, that was a shit. That was shit. Like I could have definitely done better. Um, but I gave myself grace because I was like, I've never done this before. So, like, oh yeah, you tried, go get ice cream and go home. And then I got a phone call um being like, hey, they want you back for a chemistry read. And I remember just being like, oh my god, okay. That might have been like you you learned a lot from that experience, and we're gonna apply it to the chemistry read.

SPEAKER_05 12:48

Sure.

SPEAKER_03 12:49

Um and then we did that with Michael. Um, and that was phenomenal. And I remember being in the chemistry or in my audition, and of course, playing the three different people, or the two different people, but kind of three, but two within the audition, the you know, the girl that she is in the beginning of the film and kind of who she turns into. And I did a monologue that I do that's in the movie at a party that's quite intense and very strange. And I remember locking eyes with Cooper Tomlson, who plays um Ian inside of the movie, because he's really good friends with Curry, and you know, they have all produced the movie together. That I just remembered locking eyes with him, and there was just an urge in my body to make him as uncomfortable as humanly possible, and it was so much fun, and I think that aided kind of me building this Nikki because it's uh a bit scary to do those things, and then through loving that feeling of making people um a little bit scared and like, oh, what is gonna happen next? Uh it it just kind of really helped the audition and then also helped me playing her later on.

SPEAKER_02 13:55

Uh we we can do spoilers. I'll I'll put warnings at the start of the in of the interview and and on socials and so forth. Um, because did you were you able to switch personalities? And I mean walking backwards, was that thick trick photography? Was that you? Uh you hold your smile in the bedroom, you hold this smile. So all that would have been part of it, but it was it was you doing it, right?

SPEAKER_03 14:21

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Whenever um I walk backwards in the bedroom. Oh, you're talking about okay. So a lot of we didn't use CGI in the film other than the scene where the money drops down, but still, even those were practical, like you can see money hitting the boys' faces. Yes, and that was practical um and really funny to watch. But what was um kind of either sped up or slowed down in order to create that uncanny feeling um was the walking backwards, whenever you know it's after the party and she's like pleading with him and then she starts walking backwards, or in the bedroom when she walks out of the shadow and then walks back, or she anytime that she does the freaky physical nature, it is me. Um but either slowed down or or sped up.

SPEAKER_02 15:13

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh and like contorting your face, was that something you had to practice and and holding the smile? Uh, I mean, that were brilliant, I've got to say, indeed.

SPEAKER_05 15:24

Well, thank you.

SPEAKER_02 15:24

I've seen the movie twice, and but and you know, it it really does capture the imagination. It doesn't surprise me that you're freaking people out as Nikki.

SPEAKER_03 15:34

Um, yeah, we practice faces a lot.

SPEAKER_02 15:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 15:37

Um, I think that I used Curry as like a mirror because certain things he thought um like he had a very specific vision for Nikki. And I at first didn't fully understand what was scary with the faces because I am quite sensitive to horror movies, so I don't have the same oh my gosh, girl, pick a side. It looks like I have 700 million cats because she keeps going back up to my left.

SPEAKER_02 16:12

That's it's part of interview, right? So it's all good.

SPEAKER_03 16:14

Right? It's just like, yep, and it's gonna happen right now. Hi, Hunt. Um so there was like, I didn't understand what the like like why that was so terrifying. But I think what's terrifying about it is you have no idea what she's gonna do next. And when somebody's smiling in your face and is just standing there and is like, I'm happy, everything's happy, right? But you know that there's like this evil intention or like this not evil intention, like you don't know what's gonna happen next. That's what aids the the horror. All of that to say, whenever it came to the physical nature of this movie, we spent a lot of work in preparation of trying different faces, but then found out on the day different things, and it was just a very playful time.

SPEAKER_02 17:03

Yeah, being an indie indie movie, you've got like uh it's limited time, right? So you've got to nail it, you've got to nail it as an actor. And that speech you mentioned in the party. I mean, that that really was good and well well dramatized. Was that done in in one or two shots?

SPEAKER_03 17:22

Because yeah, I think that might have been done in one. I was like, I don't really want to do this.

SPEAKER_02 17:28

It was pretty intense. Yeah, I could tell.

SPEAKER_03 17:30

Yeah. I find that for me as an actor, I love putting everything, especially in this movie, everything that I could in the first or second take, because those emotions are quite difficult to tap into. Um, and of and doing them over and over and over again, I feel like you lose the stakes, you lose the um the authenticity of feeling that emotion for the first time because then trying to replicate it sometimes doesn't fully work. You don't get the full magic of it. And especially with a monologue like that, I mean holy yeah.

SPEAKER_02 18:09

Like watching it the second time as well, um, it's not me. The phrase not me, it's not me come up more than I remembered the first time. It's it's repeatedly uh even the note in the lunchbox. So you had was a bit like get out, right? Get out had someone inside, someone else trying to get out.

SPEAKER_03 18:29

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think get out. There's this scene where I'm at the diner where it's like, no, no, no, no. And yeah, yeah, get out for me was such an important film to reference, specifically The Maid, because I mean, other people people do it well, but I think her performance is so specific and so beautiful because it's just one of those where no matter how many times that you watch it, you see things that you didn't notice beforehand in in her performance, and that's what I really wanted to bring to Nikki. Um, and yeah, yeah, it's yeah.

SPEAKER_02 19:08

Well, I I kind of likened it to Fatal Attraction, the the retro movie. Uh reality bites in a way too, because friends dating friends as well. Yeah, I just that's how I looked at it. And of course, smile uh smiles coming up, the way you contorted your face and and how creepy you moved. It was cat-like, even standing in the darkness.

SPEAKER_03 19:31

Oh, thank you.

SPEAKER_02 19:32

I've got to say, Indy, were you instructed on any kind of movement standing in the darkness? Because there's quite a lot where you can't see your face or you can just see glistening eyes. You were very cat-like.

SPEAKER_03 19:42

Yeah, Curry had this idea. It Curry had this idea of um a lot of shadow work because he wanted to hide Nikki's intentions and find the horror in that, like I was mentioning earlier, because it's horrific when you don't understand where somebody's coming from or what they're gonna do next, because then you don't know how to react. Um, and so he played a lot with shadow work and um with makeup and everything kind of being done practical. Um, but yes, smile smile is a movie that I can't even stomach. So I can understand from other people's perspective how they must feel about my performance because smile makes me sick. Smile makes me want to throw up. It it oh my god, like you can just be talking to somebody and then they switch into something else, and you go, Oh my god. Um, so we played with a lot of uh shadows in this movie. Hi, Bunny. Um that's all right.

SPEAKER_02 20:36

Your cat, your cat just wants to be part of it. That's fine.

SPEAKER_03 20:39

When I tell you, I have so many zooms and so many auditions that she has been a part of. Like she she's just like, Hi, hey, there's a camera.

SPEAKER_02 20:49

Maybe it's the Australian, it could be the Australian accent that she's not you know, a bit intrigued by.

SPEAKER_03 20:54

Yeah, she's like, Who's this? Who's this?

SPEAKER_02 20:59

Uh what about preparation as an actor? I mean, were you always destined to become a performer and actor when you were growing up? You're still still young, of course, but you've been in so many things. You were with Catherine, another Australian, a fellow Australian in 13 Reasons Why?

SPEAKER_03 21:16

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't get to work with her, but I mean, I think Aussies are we're just slowly taking over.

SPEAKER_02 21:21

And it's were you as an actor always going to be an actor and and preparations never changed?

SPEAKER_03 21:28

Oh, I think so. I think I've I've always known what I wanted to do since I was little. Um, of course, there's always like if this doesn't work out, I'd love to be, you know, a kindergarten teacher or a teacher, or um that sort of a thing. But still, there's even like a performance to it. You know what I mean? Like you're you're adding on to being a teacher, you're kind of performing throughout the day and of course, you're putting on your smile face and things like that. Not that smile face. Don't do that to children.

SPEAKER_02 21:56

Um, not that one face in reserve when the kids go naughty. Or something.

SPEAKER_03 22:01

Oh my god. So, mommy, this is my teacher, and I'm just standing in the corner like, hi. Um, but I I I think you're meaning like preparation into acting or yeah, acting preparation for this job. Um, Nikki, I was the one of the first characters that I felt like I fully understood, and I wanted to play her very real. And I think that adds to the horror is that everything that she does is something that your neighbor can do. It's something that you are fully capable of, and that's horrific. It's not supernatural, it's not like she can fly or like whatever. It's like something that you and I are both fully capable of, yeah, and how horrific that is. And so I felt like I fully understood what it would feel like to um not murder people, but I just feel like there's this added layer to her that is kind of misunderstood, and she feels the need to perform and she feels the need to put herself in situations to try and be loved. I mean, but we all kind of experience that or have experienced wanting to be desired and wanting to be loved and performing for the sake of trying to get those very innate human experiences and human connection. And so going into this, I feel like I kind of had that baseline of understanding her. And then in preparation, it was a lot of making sure that I never lost her humanity. I never lost the empathy that the audience could give her. It never was suspending belief for the audience. And I wanted to make her scary and still a movie that people could go see, but also for those that could feel for her. I really wanted to add that process in preparation to that. I watched a lot of performances that I felt made me feel like that. Like Pearl and Mia Goth. Um, yeah. Now that I've done interviews, I feel like I took inspiration from Jennifer's Body with Megan Fox's performance. Um, a lot of people um spoke to me about the movie Possession. I didn't watch that film in preparation. Um, but now that I have seen it, I see so many parallels between the two. So had I known about that film, I absolutely would have watched that film in preparation because it has just that performance, you know what I mean? Um, so it's a lot of working on the faces, a lot of definitely doing my homework because I had never done horror before, and I really, really, really wanted to do it right.

SPEAKER_02 24:24

Are you worried people might recognize you now and and walk the other way?

SPEAKER_03 24:29

That would be so funny.

SPEAKER_02 24:31

It would be, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 24:33

Oh, now I have to do that.

SPEAKER_02 24:34

Like they just slowly start walking towards me, and I'm just funny thing is too, and you um I watched Trap House after I after I watched it uh Obsession, and I knew straight away that Teresa was Teresa was a bad, you know, a villain.

SPEAKER_03 24:50

I am spoiler for Trap House.

SPEAKER_02 24:53

Uh you uh I just picked up on it. You you just I could tell. So that's how in like affective you were in Obsession, I think. People will remember you.

SPEAKER_03 25:03

Everybody moving forward is always waiting for me to do something.

SPEAKER_02 25:08

Nikki is Nikki coming back like there's further adventures of Nikki because uh she's she's alive with no friends now, um, which is very sad for Sarah in particular. Uh I know that that she was a lovely character, and oh Megan was meant to be with anyone.

SPEAKER_03 25:28

Say it again, sorry.

SPEAKER_02 25:30

No one was meant to be with anyone. Poor Sarah.

SPEAKER_03 25:32

No one was meant to be with anybody. I mean, poor Sarah. Megan's performance, Megan Lullis, who plays Sarah, uh, is just phenomenal. I mean, her in real life and that character are very different people. I love her performance, and something that she adds to it is that you can feel how much she likes Bear and how much she's kind of just like, oh, I you know, I was sitting next to you. Like in that scene, whenever they're in the car, like you, you, you could have chosen me. That was kind of the underlying for I've always been here, you know what I mean? And then also simultaneously, Ian being like, you're taking advantage of Nikki and what is wrong with you and what's going on, but also at the same time, you know, he was hooking up with Nikki. Every the whole this whole friend group was just very like interesting with each other. Um but yeah, very interesting, very interesting friend group. Everybody's everybody's kissing everybody, and everybody's killing each other, or it's me just killing everybody.

SPEAKER_02 26:27

But curry have alternate endings or was it just managed the way it was filmed?

SPEAKER_03 26:33

Yes, I think I can talk about this not because it's a spoiler, but because Curry's talked about it publicly, is that originally it was scripted that um because Bear has a gun that he tried using, that she kind of cries grieving the loss of the love of her life, as the spell would make her do. And then, of course, the spell only lasts as long as the person who made the spell is living or the wish. And then as soon as Bear dies, you know, it's kind of like that time before the wish goes away and Bear's dead, and she kind of snaps back into herself and she's looking around just at the chaos that has just happened that she had no control over and that she was trying to stop. I mean, she's screaming, stop. Um, and the alternate ending was in that decision. She grabs the gun and she kills herself because she just can't deal with it. That was in the original script, and then it was like me laying with my brains on the wall and then the camera going down, going to um the TV. And we had shot that, no pun intended, but we had shot that, and that was quite intense. I mean, the preparation to kind of do that authentically between me and Curry was definitely something I don't know if I want to tap into again to do it authentically. It's just such a horrific thing. But whenever it came to the original ending that or the the ending that we have in the movie now, it was you know what, people want this. Um, a studio, they were kind of like, hey, like let's we'd like to have this alternate ending, let's just try it. And I was like, I'm game, like I love crying. If I could cry in every film, I love it. I think it's the most cathartic thing ever. I think it's great. Um, and so we did it, we shot it. I think the first take that we did is the take that's in the film, and um, you know, obviously it's in the film show where she kind of like goes because she doesn't want to live anymore. And she sees all of that, and she's just kind of you know, crying to herself, um, and then adding my wails over that melodic, like it just it made the movie make better sense. That's not a correct English sentence, but like it it made it better, in my opinion, where you have the final goal, you have somebody that's like grieved through this whole process. So the whole movie is from Bear's perspective, but then you kind of reach the end where you're seeing her left in the carnage of what wasn't her fault and how grieving that is, and how terrifying and horrific. Um, it's my favorite scene in the film. Um, it was my favorite scene to also film.

SPEAKER_02 29:13

Um it's so unnerving, and it's great to hear that um there was sort of an option at the end there. So to wrap it up, uh I know I've only got limited time, but is a one-wish willow a thing in the US? Is it actually real?

SPEAKER_03 29:25

I mean, no, Curry Curry made that up.

SPEAKER_02 29:28

It's not an Australian thing. I've never heard of it.

SPEAKER_03 29:31

No, no, Curry Curry made that up. Um I thought so. Like, in yeah, in order, yeah, yeah. No, definitely, definitely, definitely made that up. Um that's all from the twisted mind of Curry Barker.

SPEAKER_02 29:44

Uh and uh like what's next for you? Uh any roles that are completely different coming up that you can tell me about?

SPEAKER_03 29:53

Yeah, I'm really excited for what's coming up for me. I'm kind of dipping into romance that isn't crazy and horrific. I'm dipping into action, which is amazing. Yep. Um I'm really, really stoked because it seems like one of my seems like one of my favorite book series, Fourth Wing, is becoming um a television series. So I definitely kind of really want to stick my name in that pot.

SPEAKER_02 30:15

Everyone will be after you now, I'd say.

SPEAKER_03 30:19

So hopefully I'll get to um get my name in in the room because that would be really cool.

SPEAKER_02 30:25

Uh obsession the musical.

SPEAKER_03 30:28

Uh Obsession the musical, yes.

SPEAKER_02 30:30

So you you know how to sing. I I'm sure that you'd like to do it a little bit more and perfect it. So obsession that you can Nikki can come out with her arms out, smiling.

SPEAKER_03 30:40

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 30:43

That would be amazing. Well, thank you. I'll I'm gonna call you my fellow Australian, uh, you know, like a half Australian. Um can you surf? I mean, that's uh that's a pretty big thing down under.

It's just opened in Australia. Even the opening title, as it goes down and it's on the end of the bed, it's unique.
