“The movies were a form of escapism for me. I could live my life through someone else’s shoes on the big screen and that was special. You go into a room and no one’s looking at you and it’s completely dark and the screen’s massive and you get lost in people’s stories. There’s something comforting and refreshing about that, watching someone else’s life and finding parts of yourself that you connect with. It’s magical to be able to be a part of that, to be on the other side of it while still getting lost in movies.” — Charles Melton for The Last Magazine, 2019, photographed by Clément Pascal.
