Foxcatcher

I'm curious if the 3 principle actors for this film were told to pattern their behaviors after specific animals. Steve Carell's character is pretty obvious: he's an ornithologist, calls himself "eagle," and of course there's his beak. He's subtle and ruthless, like a bird of prey. Channing Tatum is a straight up gorilla: slowing plodding forward, slouched with his chin out. Under stress, he becomes physically violent. Mark Ruffalo has the burliness of a bear. He's protective and aggressive when necessary. Each character brought this animalistic presence to their wrestling styles: awkward, brutal, and protective.
