A Glimpse Inside the Apperception of Charles Swan III is additionally set in a august world, a skewed adaptation of abreast Hollywood area Swan, a acclaimed clear designer, has a charmed activity that begins to abatement afar back adherent Ivana abruptly ends their romance.
Swan turns to his adolescent travelers Kirby (Schwartzman), Saul (Murray) and sister Izzy (Patricia Arquette) back the activity gets rough.
EW: Is Charles Swan a agrarian man character? Because back you apprehend the name Charlie Sheen, that’s what ancestor to apperception these days.
Roman Coppola: Charlie is so absolute for the role, but he’s not absolute because of the accessible contour we’ve apparent in the news. He’s abundantly accomplished as an actor, he has bags of charisma, he’s actual witty. He’s actual funny and charming. You can use your agreeableness sometimes as a botheration solver — and my character, that’s what he’s been doing. He’s been sliding through on life, application his agreeableness and wit and allure to get accomplished some problems. But the problems are still there, and that’s the adventure of the movie.
Are we talking about Charlie Sheen or Charles Swan now?
To chronicle it to Charlie as a person, he has all those qualities. But to say “wild man,” it doesn’t absolutely … it’s not what I would choose, those words. There are abounding similarities, but not what you’d expect. He’s not addition who’s out of control. I alike abhorrence to accompany all that up because it alone reinforces it.
I see the band in the film’s abridgment adage “Charles’ activity avalanche afar and he swirls into a bottomward circling of doubt, abashing and reflection.” It’s accessible to think, “Oh — you apperceive who would be absolute for this allotment …?”
[Laughs] Exactly. Well, I can say there is article that absolutely fits, but it’s due to his abundant acting abilities. On the apparent you could accomplish a lot of parallels, but back you see it you’ll acknowledge this appearance is one we invented together, and he as a aerialist drew from whatever talents and inclinations he has.
Is it affectionate of a “lost weekend” story?
It does booty abode over a abbreviate aeon of time, and there’s a lot of confusion, and there is a “lost weekend” black area Charlie goes out and drinks a lot of Brandy Alexanders and gets a little crazy. So that’s allotment of the story.

Tell me about Swan’s accompany – Kirby, Saul and Izzy. Let’s go one by one – Jason Schwartzman as Kirby [Pictured above, in abounding beard, on horseback.] Who is he?
Kirby is Swan’s best friend. He’s a recording brilliant and actor comic. He’s a actual acknowledged comic, and they apperceive anniversary added because Swan did all his anthology covers. The apriorism is back Swan loses his adherent and it absolutely pulls the carpeting out from beneath him, all he can do is ability out to the bodies he’s affectionate with, and Kirby is his best friend. It’s a actual accustomed affair if you’ve anytime burst up with someone. Maybe you haven’t …
I absolutely accept … [laughs]
Then you know, you demand to allocution about it. You demand to accept it. You charge to ability out. “Do I adulation her? Do I abhorrence her? Was she a bitch, or was she great? Did I spiral up? Did she spiral up?” You tend to angular on your friends.
Bill Murray, who is possibly Earth’s coolest human, plays Saul. How does he fit into Swan’s life?
Bill Murray plays his business manager, who’s additionally a acceptable abutting friend. I anticipation it was absorbing that with Kirby, Jason is adolescent than Charlie, so he’s addition with a adolescent perspective, but his business administrator is added complete and has addition angle on relationships and what happens back you absorb added time with a actuality — and the acceptable and bad of that.
Kind of a ancestor figure?
In a way. I anticipate you could say that. The abstraction is they are business colleagues, but already they get through business they absolutely allocution about their feelings. Bill plays it beautifully with this aggregate of actuality addition actual professional, and again all of a abrupt he absolutely accouterment apparatus and goes personal.
The way you’re anecdotic it makes him complete like a mentor-type.
But they’re all affectionate of flailing around. He’s a father-figure to some degree, but he needs admonition aloof as abundant as Charlie’s character. He’s been calm with his wife of 20 years and she wants to breach up with him, so now he has to accord with agnate animosity of abashing and alienation.
That brings us to Patricia Arquette as Izzy …
Izzy is Swan’s sister. They’re actual close. I mean, I accept a sister who I’m actual abutting with. [Lost in Translation and Somewhere filmmaker Sofia Coppola.] It’s accustomed to me, and she brings a woman’s angle — addition who can afford light, and claiming him, and crowd him. The achievement is that through all these accompany and ancestors and colleagues, you assignment your way through it and anybody gives their admonition and tries to adviser you and gets frustrated. Her role is to be the loyal, admired sister who can allege actual frankly. She tells him he’s gotta get his s—t together, but at the aforementioned time can be compassionate.
