Wagner Moura on ‘The Secret Agent,’ aging and privileging joy : Wild Card with Rachel Martin
A note from Wild Card host Rachel Martin: After watching the Brazilian film “The Secret Agent,” I came away with a deeper appreciation for how much fear, resolve and longing can be communicated through a person’s eyes.
Wagner Moura subtly conveys all those emotions as a man on the run in a military dictatorship. Yes, there are powerful moments of dialogue but so much of Wagner’s talent as a storyteller and an actor comes in what is left unsaid – how he uses the negative space to make us feel and to make us think.
