While sitting down for an interview with the media portal, the Dead Poets Society star explained that he met his then-wife on the sets of the 1997 film Gattaca.
He went on to share, “It’s humiliating. It’s almost humiliating even when they’re saying positive things.” Speaking of falling for her co-star, the actor said, “There’s a certain intimacy to the work that we do. Imaginative intimacy. It’s such a high. It feels dangerous and thrilling.”
Opening up about being in a relationship on the sets of the movie, the Before Sunset actor revealed it "turns the temperature up in your life." It feels "like falling in love at summer camp."
Further in the conversation, the movie star added, "It doesn’t have any connection to the dailiness of real life. That’s the danger of it.”
