The Bear Scene Ayo Edebiri Finds Insufferable to Rewatch
We were all crushed by one of the show’s most emotionally intense scenes, so was its star.
Summary:
- The Bear presents a nail-biting level of onscreen debates, set in the “hell kitchen”, managed by Jeremy Allen White’s emotional chef, Carmy.
- Ayo Edebiri, who portrayed the show’s sous-chef Sydney, shared her impression about rewatching one scene, which makes her devastatingly sad.
- Fans find it tough to watch too, while some claim it features a great moment for Sydney’s character development.
The Bear’s third season is one of the much-anticipated ones among today's dramas, as it receives numerous updates and fans’ speculations on the way to its release, scheduled in June.
The story of an award-winning chef, returning to his hometown of Chicago to handle the management of the kitchen at his deceased brother's sandwich point, attracted millions of viewers all over the world, who nowadays recapture the events of the two seasons, analyzing its scenes in detail in the Internet discussions.
While rewatching the most favorite series is considered as a pure pleasure for the majority of fans, some actors find seeing their acting from the other side of the screen cringey or even can’t stand it. The Bear’s stars also face struggles to watch their show.
Recalling the Vanity Fair interview with the leading show’s actors, Jeremy Allen White, who is playing the main character, the eccentric chef Carmy Berzatto, and Ayo Edebiri, portraying a talented sous-chef Sydney Adamu, we can bring back our memories of one uncomfortable scene, which put a lot of moral pressure on The Bear’s viewers.
Edebiri confessed she could barely watch her acting, which was truly convincing, in the scene of the 7th episode, where her heroine reaches her breaking point and walks out on a jammed kitchen service and doesn’t apologize, as it devastates her very much.
Despite fans’ mostly controversial opinion to this tough Sydney’s scene, which is supported by the actress’ impression too, some people find it “a moment of strength for her character.”
As for White, he doesn’t like to watch his own acting in TV and movie projects, but nevertheless at his attempt to watch the final version of The Bear he couldn’t help stop it, because he, as well as lots of people worldwide, found it really addicting.
“I have a hard time watching myself, but I really wanted to watch for Ayo and the rest of the cast, <...> I was surprised that, despite me not liking the look of my face. There was something about the show that you did want to keep watching," admitted the actor.
It’s clear that the art’s goal is not only expressing emotions, but also evoking them, with which The Bear and its actors perfectly deal. Stream the heated series on Hulu.
