Heartbreaking film

Brah. Chuck a pillow behind your mic or something.

Just watched it for the first time. I'm not really familiar with Bob Dylan, but the thing that really got me interested in this movie was a poster on my psychology teacher's wall, that was a quote from Dylan: "All I can do is be me, whoever that is." The movie was pretty good.

1- a slow, long winded narration that aims to sound smart first, earnest second 2- constantly praising the subject of the analysis for “not being like those other films” as supposed to mostly examining its own merits 3- the use of smart words that aim to sound intelligent vs actually saying something interesting Man it’s as if you wanted to embody every tired stereotype around video essays

Grief is a hard thing. If you've dealt with grief or mental health issues, this movie is a hard pill to swallow.

The films that have meant the most to me haven't always been those that felt like life-altering experiences immediately afterwards. But "Aftersun" (which I only belatedly caught up with last night) is one that I recognized right away -- like Celine Song's "Past Lives" (which I saw in 2024), or Wim Wenders' "Kings of the Road" (which I saw in the early 1980s) -- all of them memory-films about processing illusions and hopes and regrets...

I wish that if lee believe in God and he would not blame himself for( fate) and live a depressed life

You nailed it there. When Jack and Rose finally get together it such an emotional high, in that moment we forget what ship we are on until the very next scene shows the upcoming iceberg. Then we remember where we are and our hearts sink before the ship does.

This was so good

There is nothing.

Execute people as an example to others doesn’t work . People get executed for their actions so they don’t do it again .

Please keep making videos

very enjoyable essay and does credit to a film a lot of people have not seen or the casual viewer often didnt rate

I felt a renewed urge to revisit this. Your essay resonates with a mature and poetic depth, eloquently mirroring the film's essence. It deserves to be seen by many more eyes. Thank you again!

While I agree the truth, or true events are not very relevant to this film, it's interesting to consider what writers and directors include. It's kind of meta when the lawyer at the end points out that she could easily influence a jury to hate or doubt MZ just by asking a question. In fact the whole film sort of does that - influencing the audience's opinions on characters through what they are shown to do and what other characters say about them. Anyway, cool essay. Thanks for producing this kind of content ✌️

There was a scene that didn't make it into the film, after Jesse is dead, Bob would want to travel and visit the families of the people Jesse killed and introduce himself as the man who killed Jesse James. He comes to the grave of Jesse James and finds on his tombstone it reads below his epitaph “Murdered by a traitor and a coward whose name is not worthy to appear here.” All Bob wanted was to be remembered, to have his name be famous like Jesse James. Even as Jesse's final words would be told amongst people and they would read into its possible meaning, Bob couldn't even manage to have any last words, lest any worth remembering.

Charles McGraw was a great actor. Eric Roberts did a great remake.

Absolutely my favorite superhero movie, by far. Probably never to be outdone.

good work old chap.

Top 8 movie for me.

One of the best films ever made.

I just finished the movie. In the beginning it seriously amazed me by the shots. The scene on the bus, where everything is quite and subtle really stuck with me. But soon I felt the ever lasting tension. From my point of view I was worried about the movie being about molestation or something else, but soon I found out that the tension is mostly of the battles inside the father, rather than of a painful shared memory. The somehow uncomfortable long scenes were what brought the most to the realism of the movie and in the end tears to my face. I am so tired of idealized movies where everything has to be pretty or bad, nothing in between and I am so glad I found this masterpiece.

the masterpiece of creative arts "movie", show us "DESTINIES" of character's they life-path and and most highlights of their life's, this is more then just a movie....its the MOST REAL down to EARTH Real Story Telling in movie i ever saw, maybe "Blood Diamond's" also and Titanic, all other MOVIEW are just NPC's with characters and no real story. Exceptional creative art work, to whole crew, and ofcause great great ACTOR'S not only Brat Pitt also other's too, don't know their name's except Brother of Ben Afflec :)) The best MOVIE's is Storry telling of faith of main caracter, like forest gump, titanic women, Pirate's of the Caribean (Captain Jack Sparrow), Jessy James and Robert Ford.... i don't know movey that could be better then thouse of great story telling....there none, just none ! thanks good review also

Beautiful video on a great movie, love it. Greetings from Holland

This video deserves so much more views

One of the best and most honest films I ever watched.

People who say money buys happiness needs to watch the social network

Deserved Oscar

Thank you! Finally, someone understands why Jack had to die. I've explained this so many times. I'd add that, while Jack would have fit on the door (giving a different ending), he didn't get on because he understood that Rose was a woman who had been pampered and tended to - yes, she was strong - but she had never had to do for herself. Plus, they had just been running all over the ship, struggling in the water, and were freezing cold. So, for Jack to try to get on would possibly have ended badly for both of them. You see that knowledge in his face when he sort of nods his head. But, again, he had to die for Rose to fulfil her life. Had Brock not been on TV - she would have died and her family would have found the necklace. But, here was an opportunity for her pay a tribute to Jack or a final freeing of herself. Or both. For me - she died an old lady, warm in her bed and rejoined Jack. That all said - I did come up with an alternative ending which would have allowed Jack and Rose to live a long, wonderful life together and still have the drama and romance of the movie. But, I can't remember it now! One thing that has bothered me - people were looking at the lists of survivors and the lost. Cal took the time to look on the Carpathia for Rose. Wouldn't he have checked the lists? And, wouldn't Cal or Rose's mother or Molly Brown been smart enough to question exactly who Rose Dawson really was?? Loved the video and your conclusions!

The Perry character stopping to pick up an elderly man and his grandson, stopping Hitchcock from assaulting the daughter are from Smith’s point of view. There’s no evidence that those things happened. It could be a BS story told by Perry to Capote cause Perry knew he would buy it. Capote was in love with Perry. In turn, Perry seem to be using Capote gain favor so he could get his sentence reduced. Perry was more of a psychopath by far than Hitchcock.

Fantastic analysis.

the only lesson here is that they were heartless killers

can we both

My personal opinion: when Bourne takes out the assassin in Supremacy in the car chase and he's hurt but not dead, and he has the kill shot, but chooses not to take it is the pivital moment where he has overcome his training and conditioning and becomes a real person again.

The best movie I ever hated watching.

This is one movie I didn't really "get" on my own, but it's been fascinating to hear other people explain what they love about it.

I have just read your mission statement and agree with you wholeheartedly. Aftersun is magnificent in countless ways. I express my love of the film with friends and family and seem to be the only one so moved by it which, frankly, surprises me. Here, thanks to reviewing what was captured by video cam while they were together, Frankie can finally grasp the beautiful and sadness of her and Callum’s love and connection.

i think the worst scene is when that girl is reaching out to him saying her heart is broken and she knows his is. and he refuses to reach out to him. pardon me but what a stupid assh*ole . i mean. hes basically saying his own pain and his own loss matters more then hers. thats whats hes saying. id KILL to have a nice attractive woman like that just wanting to talk or connect with me at all. and yet this douche-bag rather push her away because he cant get over his grief instead of reaching out giving her a big hug and saying "i hurt too and i dont know how to deal with it. but maybe we can deal with it together". i have a grandmother who is like that. who rather be negative and focus on her pain then to reach out to others and even when people reach out to her like her own family sometimes she pushes then away. there is nothing worse or more emotionally draining then dealing with someone like that. sorry i have no sympathy for this guy and i think hes being a complete selfish idiot. i think this is a good movie to show what NOT to do in situations like that. sure things dont always work out. but life does NOT have to be like that!

cool but i kinda find movies like this overly depressing too. i think the problem with pain is the tedency to focus on it too much. i have found lately that while we must not hide our pain. to focus on it TOO much will make us afraid to reach out and find hope. thats been my case for the past 20 years. i let my fear my pain my anger really keep me from doing what i want to do. and i can blame others all i want. but i am starting to realize maybe i and i alone was the root cause of why i have felt so trapped, and im trying to force myself to get out of that bubble to reach out more. i think focusing on pain just to focus on pain can lose sight of the bigger picture. and we need to all learn to move on and let go. like him refusing to have dinner with that girl. because of his own pain. us guys are so good at pushing away the one person who might actually give a shit about us arnt we? but i do like the way the film focus a bit more on realism though. but you know hes not processing things like he should hes got a nephew to look after now. and due to that he neesds to get over his sh*t to be a father figure that the boy needs. if he was alone and did not have anyone to take care of it might be a diffrent story. but you know. while grief and loss is tough if you let it dominate your life. yeah........but interesting movie none the less. makes you think for sure.

One of the things I loved about this film is the lack of the Stetson. The Stetson-wearing cowboy (as cool as it looks) is a hollywood creation. The Derby hat, was the most popular hat worn in the west at the time. At any rate, this is my second favorite western of all time.

I never want to feel the feeling I had with this movie ever again. This is one of those movies that fucking broke me . I bawled for hours and hours. I’ve never wanted to die while watching a movie until this fucking movie. This movie is just beautiful

The best video essay on RUclips by far. There have been few videos I've watched more than once, only a few of them being essays in the first place. I must've watched this one 15 times by now. You did an excellent job capturing the essence and atmosphere of the movie. Beautifully worded too, with no filler. Thanks for the video.

I agree 100%! My personal opinion is that it's Brad Pitt's best performance, Casey Affleck's best performance, maybe the most overlooked movie ever and I can go on and on. Thank you for making this and for pointing all of these things out.

I have loads of much better movies in my personal DVD collection that I never share with anyone.

Casey Affleck is probably the best actor extant IMHO

Rose is the real villain in this movie. Old and young version?

I always thought the blurrs where to visualize Jesse's eyesight

I watched the movie today for the very first time. I burst into tears....when Lee meet again whith his ex wife..... I Think he couldn't live in Manchester anymore due to his past.... that cointained grief..... got out for seconds.....he couldn't escape from. So devastating.

I consider this a meditation of movie making!!! My favorite movie

Wow. That is fucking wild.
