Please rate & review The Movies on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever else you listen to the show!---I interview Kenneth Trujillo, the lead actor of I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU ALONE, about the process of becoming a mute ex-con in DW Medoff's horror drama. Through his confident performance, he anchors the vicious downer with empathy and cautious hope. How does one prepare to be trapped inside a house for six days with one's trauma, manifested via a ghoulish witch? Trujillo says there's a lot of research involved.We talk about the camera, that total diva. What are the hardest things to do in front of it? How does one craft a performance based on its demands? Is the stage more forgiving? (It's okay. She's not here; Tell the truth.)Kenneth (Kenny, to friends) is a fun hang: warm, buoyant and thoughtful. Y'all are in for a treat. I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU ALONE is available now to watch on VOD and in select theaters.---Follow The Movies on ⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠& ⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠Financially support the podcast via the ⁠⁠tip jar!
