Thats a good question, I think the challenge for me is getting outside family and friends and figuring out how to help people I dont know, and that I dont have any vested interest in, and dont expect anything from me and thats thing Im trying to challenge myself with my limited resources is how do I make a difference in peoples lives that I dont really know, friends and family thats easy. A35. HRN-2968 In:00:27:20 Out: 00:27:55 Sound Bite: Grant Nieporte Screenwriter Seven Pounds On this movie, it was reaffirmed for me, how to treat people, watching Will Smith be Will Smith, hes a producer, hes an actor, and he really cares about people, and he knows everybodys name and he really cares and his work ethic makes me feel like a lazy person, he inspires me in that realm and if I step, you know, in to real life its friends that went over to Iraq, doing you know, real heroic work those guys inspire me.

HRN-2968****Sniped In: 00:31:08 Out: 00:31:45 Sound Bite: Will Smith Ben Thomas Seven Pounds Ive been calling it, like, its a very male chick flick, like from a male chick, no not like male chick, but like a male with his sensitive side, right? Cause its all man the movie is like a real mans journey, but you can allow the woman in you, thats probably not a good selling point, the softer side, but yet a really aggressive masculine side thats in touch with the feminine element.

HRN-2968 In: 00:36:32 Out: 00:37:35 Sound Bite: Barry Pepper Dan Seven Pounds The script, I mean my character was insignificant on the page, so it wasnt really about my character in particular, ah, it was just such a great story that challenged my beliefs you know, I thought that I had an understanding of these themes but it completely flipped them on their head, and um it absolutely fit into that biblical suggestion of the only way to achieve love and happiness and freedom in your life is to give it someone else, and I really connect with that, and I thought that, that was a beautiful, beautiful theme and I wanted to be a part of the film, but it wasnt until I sat down with Will and the director, Gabrielle, that I knew that they wanted to explore my character and the relationship dynamic between the 2 of us, so that was just like the cherry on top, you know, I just thought I would come in and do my little bit, and, but it became so much more and I was really grateful for that. A49. HRN-2968 In: 00:37:38 Out: 00:38:10 Sound Bite: Barry Pepper Dan Seven Pounds Oh my goodness, I guess, it would probably be a solider coming home for Christmas, you know, those guys, there kind of in a very, very thankless position over there in Afghanistan and Iraq and uh at this time of year, we kind of forget that a lot of them are still slugging it out over there, so that would be pretty cool, if one of those guys could catch a break, a guy or girl that are over there, could catch a break and be with their families. A50. HRN-2968 In: 00:38:12 Out: 00:38:42 Sound Bite: Barry Pepper Dan Seven Pounds Oh man, why not Will, I look at his work ethic and even just in rehearsals he sat down with me and tried to make my character better in the movie, as opposed it being how I could serve his character, it really was, a theme that began in the script and then in rehearsal and then in shooting the film and thats why the film is going to be a success for Will, because thats just really who he is A51. HRN-2968 In: 00:40:39 Out: 00:41:08 Sound Bite: Michael Ealy Bens Brother Seven Pounds You know, Im going to see it for the first time, and I know Im going to be effected by it, I cant wait to see it, and you know, I think its the type of movie that we need right now, I really do, I think its the type of movie that we need right now, you know, you got people trying to change there lives right now, a lot of people are making life making decisions these days, you know, this is the kind of movie that people need to see. A52. HRN-2968 In: 00:41:13 Out: 00:41:50 Sound Bite: Michael Ealy Bens Brother Seven Pounds I mean, you know, I dont know, if it would be somebody famous, you know, I wouldnt pin point anybody in that way, you know what I mean, um, you know to a certain extend its too who ever deserves it, who ever needs it, you know what I mean, you ever needs it and deserves it, is kind of like the same approach in this movie, or his character took in this movie, I think thats the most important thing figure out, who needs it, who deserves it and then go from there. A53. HRN-2968 In: 00:41:52 Out: 00:42:37 Sound Bite: Michael Ealy Bens Brother Seven Pounds My mother, thats my best role model, my mother and father, yeah definitely OC: Can you explain that a little bit.

Will: What did I learn from this movie, you know that theres a concept at the center of this film that its about a guy that makes a really terrible mistake and he sets out to atone and hes going to find seven strangers and hes going to change their lives, and I kind of discovered that the difference between depression after you lose something and that zeal and that fighting energy that power, the difference between the two is purpose and when you can find purpose and meaning for your life outside of you, that because you woke up this morning and somebodys else life is going to be better, when you can find that kind of meaning, is like that is the elixir for a happy life and its the elixir that makes life bearable. A55.

A56. HRN-2968 In: 00:43:54 Out: 00:44:38 Sound Bite: Will Smith Ben Thomas Seven Pounds How did the character, you know the character took me the other way, Ben Thomas, pulled me down, but the artistic inspiration was how story can effect your life, Ive never, how the idea of a powerful story can reveal a complex idea about life that you never would have gotten if somebody just tell it too you, if somebody tried to do the math of that idea, the necessity to give, the power of love to mend mistakes you know like that, those ideas, really powerful ideas.
