Here’s the transcript of the Reylo portion! ~13 min in.
Rayne:… the little subtleties when you have the Rey and Kylo Force connection moments. How the sound from each of their minds kindof seeps into the other and just that simple way of telegraphing that they are connected.
Pablo: That’s something that Rian had in his, his idea from the very start that we would use a very low tech basically in camera cinematic trick to understand those two are communicating. He could have done a version where there was all sorts of wizardry shaping the screen, but no. It’s just the oldest cinematic trick in the book.
Rayne: (smiling) Eyelines and…
Pablo: Yeah, and it works.
Matt: Just the eyeline itself just completely sells it.
Leland: Plus, there’s some dialogue in there that Kylo Ren says. “Can you see me? I can’t see you—“
Andi: That’s why he was shirtless the next time.
Pablo: Cuz you never know.
Andi: (imitates weight lifting) Ninety-nine!
Pablo: (imitates weight lifting) Working on these guns!
Pablo: Oh, I didn’t see you there!
Matt: He actually spent a lot of time shirtless just hoping for that connection to kick in. (puts his finger on his cheek and turns his face, imitating Kylo giving a coy look) Oh. Sorry.
Andi: (smiling and shaking her head) So good, so good…
Rayne: Well, it kindof all goes back to something Larry Kazdan used to talk about when we were doing Force Awakens, which is that, and it’s not in the script, but when he peers into her mind there’s something profound that happens between them and the way that Larry used to describe it was that there is this energy between them like this kindof (smiling) almost, and I don’t want to say it, but like something a little bit more than you would expect and I think it’s fun to see it play out in this story as well.
Andi: That was something—
Pablo: It feels like there’s definitely a door opened between the two of them in The Force Awakens where they pull from each other in terms of skills and memories and then that is more poignant in the end when that door essentially closes (shot of Rey closing Falcon door on Kylo from TLJ) and it’s sort of, it’s the Godfather shot of the door closing between Michael and Kay, and it’s like (gestures with hand closing toward his own face) the Millennium Falcon door separates them.
Andi: Actually, the connection between Rey and Kylo made me think a lot about the connection between Ezra and Maul that we see in Rebels. Something happens with them in the Force that links them. That’s something that we’ve seen before.
Pablo: That’s true. I think Rian and Dave share a lot ideas and commonalities…
