Why Did David Fincher's Praise Hit Andrew Garfield So Hard in the Social Network Laptop Scene?
Andrew Garfield says David Fincher was less quick with positive reinforcement. When the praise came, Andrew Garfield wanted to cry, stayed stoic, and answered with thanks, because the praise meant so much.
The moment was the laptop-smashing scene in Social Network. They did a few rounds of takes. On the third round of 10 or 15 takes, Andrew Garfield heard nothing. He was on the floor, exhausted and crying, and he describes being broken in a way that felt beautiful.
