There's so much terminology and so much of the nitty gritty that you get across in the movie. I love going to the movies for pure entertainment, and there are a lot of movies made for that these days, but this felt like a movie that had more to say and was important to get out there. This is the case of a movie that can actually make a difference and show us what real heroes are like. I thought this was a movie that I'd love to show my kids when they're old enough. The story of Eric Marsh, the story of Brendan McDonough, one at the very top and one at the very bottom, who are brought together through the circumstances of this film, was very inspiring. I never knew that these guys go out there without water and fight fire with fire. I, like most people, assumed that they were firefighters like we're use to seeing around in the city. But I'd gotten my hands on an early version of this draft and I read it, and I was almost embarrassed that I didn't know these guys existed. I'd done two science fiction movies and, all of a sudden, you find yourself being sent every science fiction script. Kosinski: Well, that's one thing: it's different. MOVIEFONE: What drew you to this project? It is a big departure. We recently got a chance to sit down with Kosinski to talk about his big departure, wrangling such an amazing performance out of Taylor Kitsch, and how they brought those fires to life. It really is something, full of awe and terror and deep emotions. Instead of some grand visual effects breakthrough taking center stage, the emphasis is on the human drama, beautifully acted by an all-star cast that includes Josh Brolin, Miles Teller, James Badge Dale, Jeff Bridges, Taylor Kitsch, and Oscar-winner Jennifer Connelly. It's unlike anything Kosinski has ever done. The film follows the true-life story of the Granite Mountain hotshots, a group of highly-skilled firefighters that set fires to combat and control wildfires, who met a tragic end in June 2013. But the filmmaker behind " Tron Legacy" and " Oblivion" has set his sights on a more earthbound experience with his new film, " Only the Brave." Director Joseph Kosinski is known for his glittery sci-fi vistas and technologically-ambitious concepts.
