[Image] James and Oliver Phelps in the "Harry Potter" series This work is from the 1960s when Eloise (Thomasin McKenzie), who lives in the present age, appears every night with Sandy (Anya Taylor-Joy) who wants to be a singer. Psychological horror that begins when you start dreaming. Eloise steps into the club "Cafe de Paris" in her dream, but when she looks in her mirror, she sees Sandy, not herself, and she synchronizes her body and soul with her. You realize that you are doing it.

Wright, who wanted to cherish the bond between Eloise and Sandy, instead of taking separate shots of Thomasin and Anya in the mirror scene, he hollowed out the mirror and let them actually act in the same space. It is said that. "Both are very exciting actresses, each with a slightly different energy. That was important for the film. The first thing they had to do was the mirror. The choreography of the scene. It was a really complicated choreography, so I think it was a good opportunity to foster a bond. As soon as they met, they had to become sisters and copy each other's movements. Because

"In shooting, it was important that Toh Machine and Anya were in the same space. We designed many shots to make it possible, so Toh Machine should have felt real. If I had shot them separately, I think their acting would have been about half as good as they are now, "said Wright. "Even though there aren't many scenes where they read the lines together, it was magical that there was a bond between Eloise and Sandy, which was also between the two actresses. "He looked back with satisfaction.

In order to complete this mirror trick, it was necessary to have Toe Machine and Anya with a "mirror" in between, and "two cloakers with the same appearance" standing beside each other. The twin Phelps brothers, Oliver and James, were chosen for that role. "They came to the audition. When I first met them, I didn't immediately know they were Weasley's twins in Harry Potter. I thought I had seen them, but I was watching a movie. I didn't, and I didn't know the name. So I suddenly noticed during the audition, "Wait! They're Weasley's twins!" Tashine "
