Morgan Freeman talks about his character Dr. McCarthy in Dolphin Tale

Morgan Freeman: Well, I think he's a guy that's very wrapped up in his work. He fashions protheses for wounded soldiers. You know, coming back from the wars. And I think that's pretty much what he thinks about all the time. So he's a bit uncamped, un-looked after. A bit of a workaholic.

I think it's a feel good movie all the way through. Your dealing with a kid who's kind of not found its way. He not doing very good at school. He's not very attentive in school. And he meets this dolphin. And everything changed for him. You know. He becomes totally focussed on helping this dolphin. So you start pulling for the two of them. It works very well.

There's no tension on the set. Whether or not you've got a smooth running, tensionless set, depends greatly on the director. Does the director seem to know what he's doing. What he wants. And as an old actor, I think Charles knows what he wants and what he's doing. And who to get it without upsetting anybody.
