Nicolas Cage breaks down his 'androgynous' Longlegs role and using his mother as inspiration

[queenursula]

Nicolas Cage shares a memory from when he was 2 that inspired his #Longlegs role. “My mom put on Noxzema cold cream…For no reason, she turned her face really fast and stared at me…The whiteness of the cold cream just really spooked me.” https://t.co/HJW0L9wkaJ

I just got out of this. Loved the constant sense of dread. The first two acts were great, and then it kind of fell apart. I wish they would have kept things more ambiguous. I loved a lot of things about, it just didn't quite work for me.

I’m debating seeing this next week because I’m going home to see my mom and I’ll need something to do at night, but I’ll also be staying in a hotel by myself, so maybe it wouldn’t be smart to see a horror movie.

Havent watched any of his recent movies but he has a very good agent

He’s a very good actor who has been giving some of his best performances recently.

I didn't know his mother was schizophrenic, that sounds tough

Blair Wood is still fine.

I saw this today and I really liked it. It was more of a thriller than a horror film so it's my kind of movie.

Granted, I figured out the whodunnit but it was still good. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a sequel.

I did think Nic was creepy, just not scary. I kind of thought he was giving Great Value Buffalo Bill.

regarding Nic Cage, they should have cast a relatively unknown instead of using prosthetics on a very recognizable actor. That is why Buffalo Bill worked in SOTL
