"A lot of young actors don't really care about history or other actors' histories," says Woman in Gold director Simon Curtis, who also worked with Eddie Redmayne on My Week With Marilyn. "I found Max to be incredibly intuitive about all that. Both he and Eddie are very emotionally intelligent. Eddie is going all the way, and I think Max will, too -- for that same reason."
