Get to Know Tahar Rahim, the French Actor About to Terrify You on Netflix's The Serpent

In an interview with Variety, Rahim revealed that he would sneak into movie theaters when he was a teenager. "So when I was around 13 or 14, I used to hang around and go to the movies. But, I couldn't really afford it. So I found a way to get in from the back door. And I would go there five times a week. And over the course of watching movies, I started to feel something in that place — the movie theater itself. It was something like being in an unconscious dream space," Rahim explained.
