Having been introduced by Chad and having had a brief chat with Alec, Martin roughly understood the Baldwin family situation.
All three Baldwin brothers were moderately famous supporting actors in Hollywood.
The eldest was Alec, the second was William, and the youngest, Stephen, was Hailey's father.
"In the film, you play the role of an old friend of mine," Martin said.
Having just met and with no other topics at hand, Martin brought up the roles they would play: "You'll be providing me with a lot of help."
Alec, a traditional actor, commented, "I've carefully read the script, and to get a feel for my character, I made a special trip to Rome last week."
Chad interjected, "Too bad your character is all interior scenes, and we'll be filming in Brooklyn."
Alec went on to say, "That's exactly why I went to Rome, to seek the feeling of a special Roman hotel owner."
Martin said, "I'm really looking forward to working with you."
Alec responded with a smile, "Me too."
