The World Motivation
To read a character I'm not sympathizing with is generally quite a good, attractive proposition because I've got somewhere to go, I've got work to do, to try to understand why they behave like they behave, to relate entirely and understand them and to be completely emotionally connected. That is much more fun 99 percent of the time.

Rebecca Hall shares her enjoyment of engaging with complex characters who challenge her sympathy. She finds this a compelling proposition because it allows for deeper exploration of human behavior and motivations. By connecting with characters that are difficult to sympathize with, Hall indicates that there is much to learn and understand about the human condition, making such roles attractive for her as an actress.
Consider an actor preparing for a role where they must portray a morally ambiguous character. The challenge of understanding the motivations behind the character's actions can provide a rich and rewarding experience, enhancing their craft. Hall’s perspective highlights the artistic appeal of complexity in storytelling, suggesting that exploring difficult characters can lead to significant personal and professional growth.
