Maika Monroe and Jason Isaacs on Victorian Psycho

Victorian governess in town, and she certainly has a way of getting what she wants. The new film, Victorian Cycle, opens in theaters this weekend, and Good Day's Paul Milliken recently sat down with the stars for a bloody fun interview. I had to fly unexpectedly up to Boston yesterday. And so it was a late flight. It was for some family business. I watched this movie on the plane. There was one moment where I yelped so loud. Higher. Everybody around me turned and looked at me. So thank you for scaring the plane for me. That was very fun. Pleasure. Oh yes, there was some turbulence, alright, thanks to the horror-dark comedy, Victorian Psycho. My name is Winifred Naughty, and I'm the sanest person I've ever met. Micah Munro stars as, well, an off-balance governess in 1800s England, who begins working for a new family and really makes an impact. Ah! I read that you did prep work by watching like real serial killer interviews and depositions. Sounds very creepy, but like, what did you get from that? Well, I mean, you know, this character is, well, slightly different than me. Um, and, uh... Really very slightly. Just a little bit. And so, you know, I had to do a lot of work to, like, really understand this character and make sure that I, you know, do psychopaths justice. It was just very helpful, you know, watching these videos and psychologists would, like, break down, like, the different facial expressions, what different things mean. What they'll put on their face, what's happening internal. It was very interesting research that I actually quite enjoyed doing. Co-star Jason Isaacs trades the White Lotus for a dark gothic mansion and says filming Victorian Psycho was like dancing with the camera. So there is a scene, I don't want to give spoilers, but there's kind of a big revelation about the two of your characters late in the film. And that scene specifically... I felt like they were long takes because the camera was sort of moving around you and stuff. It's a one, it's what we call a one. It's one take. It was, okay. There's no cuts in that scene at all. It's like doing a play. And so what you're rehearsing really is the choreography very carefully. You don't want to over-rehearse any moments for any ending in a film because you want something to happen spontaneously. But what's nice about... Theatre, actually, what's nice about doing long takes like that is it's then handed over to the actors. It's ours. Oh, they make it their own in a film that really sets proper Victorian behaviour. On its ear, Paul Milliken, Good Day Atlanta. Leave it to Paul to end on that. And we want to say a big thanks to Bleecker Street for production assistance with that interview. Victorian Psycho opens in select theaters today. And for more on Paul's celebrity interviews, you can check out Behind the Scenes with Paul Milliken. The show streams Saturdays and Sundays, 12.30 p.m. on Fox Local. Coming up, we're planning.
