This is genuinely one of the greatest films I have ever seen. Straight masterpiece. I do not care if I paused or talked too much through this because this film absolutely deserves it. Its also me as a reactor. I try to pick up on things and do my best to not only react and commentate, but also learn about filmmaking and writing, hence why I get soo excited at points. I hope you enjoy and much love. Please let me know what film to do next and the most liked comment I will watch if I haven't seen it! Only subscribe if you enjoy. God Bless!
en el minuto 31:34 cuando tu mismo te preguntas si el señor AMONG GOEHT existió de verdad. la respuesta es que si. y de echo el tipo se dedicaba a disparar a la gente desde su villa.
tan bien se dedicaba entre otras cosas a hacer comer las propias heces humanas si esa persona tenia ese día diarreas entre otras muchas fechorías.. se calcula que fue responsable de unas 10.000 muertes directas e indirectas en este campo de concentración. al cabo de la guerra fue juzgado por crímenes de guerra y condenado a la horca. SALUDOS
On both sides of my family are holocaust victims and survivors and my saba (grandpa) was a “Schindler Jew” - Schindler is buried among the “righteous among the nations” (a special designation/honor given to just a few non Jews who did something extraordinary/risk/above and beyond to save Jews) in Israel (you see it at the end of the movie) and it was my grandpa who took me there for the first time. I still can’t really form words to describe or discuss my feelings about this movie.
The cousin of my wife's grandfather was the jeweler who made the ring.
This is a movie that all human beings should watch at least once. You're right. It is a straight masterpiece that will be timeless.
The brutality shown actually happened, but it was actually TONED DOWN by Spieburg because it was sooo bad that he feared that it wouldn't be believed!
Thank you for watching this film Elie. I've seen other RUclipsrs' reviews and of course they've been swept up in the emotional aspect, it's important to feel the horror and frustration of such a historically dark part of humanity's past. Glad however, that you're as analytical as you normally are with that finesse of pulling apart details and appreciating the effort Spielberg put into this masterstroke of a movie.
Going to watch something happy right now - but always paying attention to US news on a daily basis because this film is an educational tale of what should not be repeated.
much love i try to differentiate myself from others. I try to be Elie Moses :)
I'm Polish and this movie was shot in Poland. I must tell you that when an elderly Polish woman, a prisoner of the Płaszów camp, saw Ralph Fiennes in an SS uniform as Amon Goeth on the film set, she almost fainted from fear because she thought that Goeth had come to life and returned. These people were so afraid that after all these years they are still afraid.
I saw this movie when it came out. Even today it still wrecks me. We as humans can be so cruel to each other. I will never understand how come we can’t all get along. Or just respect each other and live in peace.
Ellie, I have watched all your reactions for the movies I have also watched. This one was the most meaningful to me. As a world history teacher, I spent one week every school year showing this film to six classes. Your cinematic observations added a new depth to my understanding, especially the use of lighting. After all these years, I believe my students gained the significant realization that these victims were INDIVIDUALS, not part of a larger number. During discussions they mentioned various characters by name. To them, six million means very little because they can not comprehend that vast amount. However, Danka, OleK, Helen, Mia are memorable, and meaningful. Showing masses of people is intertwined with individual situations and that adds to the empathy they experience. Again, I appreciate this reaction immensely. Continued success in your endeavors. 💜💜
hey thank you soo much for that. I did ancient history in high school it was one of my favourite subjects. But in religion we studied The Shoah and did a whole topic on it.
There were some famous psychological studies after the war trying to figure out why so many nice, ordinary people had not just ignored what was happening but cooperated with the Nazis. In the Milgram experiments, ordinary people were willing to follow a scientist's orders to administer electric shocks to other people as part of a supposed learning experiment even when it was clear they were causing extreme pain and possible life-threatening injury. In the Stanford prison experiment, students randomly designated as guards and prisoners descended in days into a repressive, hostile situation modeling the worst stereotypes of prison life.
A superb movie shot in black & white which just gives it so much power and atmosphere. Spielberg is a master, and we can see here how all his skills are utilised to make this film so hard hitting, as well as wonderful story telling. There was an Angel episode called Hero, in which Doyle sadly departed, but the part where The Scourge were marching through the night ransacking and murdering, this was an obvious homage to the scene from Schindler's List, where the ghetto is being liquidated by Goeth and the Nazis. As this film develops it is just so hard hard to watch the brutality of it, but it is compelling. A stand out scene for me is where the children have to hide in the latrine, such terror shown in this situation. Goeth is played wonderfully by Ralph Fiennes, and brings to life the absolute arrogance and depravity of the character. Ben Kingsley is also wonderful too, and Liam Neeson is brilliant in the starring role. So many great scenes there are just too many to mention, a very poignant and uplifting ending of the Schindler Jews laying rocks on his grave, and the fact that there are over six thousand descendants. Good reaction Elie, may I recommend Paths Of Glory from 1957 starring Kirk Douglas, perhaps the greatest anti-war film of all time, with the greatest one take scene ever shot in cinema by Stanley Kubrick.
I prefer the black and white for multiple reasons. First to transport us into that time with the feel. Secondly and more importantly, with occurrences that were so devastatingly disgusting at showing the deplorable actions that humans can take, the focus is then more on the actions and not the gore. I find with how we in our time are almost desensitized to gore with movies, removing the colours of blood specifically brings focus to where it should be.
This is such an important film.
Such an astute comment!
@@kevind4850 thank you :)
This movie is (or at least was when I was young) a must see movie in schools in Germany where I was born. What happened before and during WWII may never be forgotten, so it can never happen again.
I even went on a school trip to Auschwitz and it was the most horrifying experience I ever had. Seeing those shacks where people had to live in, the chambers they died in... just brutal. But the one thing that haunts me to this day, where a line of rooms where they kept the stuff they took from people before they were inprisoned and/or gased. One room with huges piles of suitcase. One room with hundreds of thousands of glasses. One room with shoes. And one room filled to the ceiling with human hair. You see all this stuff an you know at some point this belonged to a person. A person with family, friends, hopes and dreams. A person that was murdered because it was born into the "wrong" group of people. It leaves you devastated.
I agree, I am worried that it still happen again, it seems we haven't learned enogh. The war in the 90- years in Bosnie- Servie was also cruel and men were also seperated from their wives and killed. The war in Oekraine is nearby and cruel with many victimes of children and civilians, seperated families not having a house anymore and afraid what happen with their husband, son or father. In many parts of the world are wars with many innocent people, I am afraid what sill happen worlwide.
Finally! A film student channel who admits to having seen many of the top films.
Having been a second generation film student at on point it makes me do a head tilt when some channels claim to have not seen so many iconic movies. I
What made them want to go to film school? Did they listen to an audio book and think - this could be better with pictures?
Have classes changed so much that they don't watch films anymore to breakdown and study?
I get not seeing them all but c'mon.
I also appreciate the pauses rather than talking over the film.
Only 5 minutes in. Looking forward to it.
When John Williams was asked to write the score for this film, he told Steven Spielberg he needed someone better than him. Steven Spielberg replied, "I know, but they're all dead".
This is the film Spielberg chose to submit as his student film requirement when he finally returned to finish his much delayed film degree.
Lighting a black and white movie is a special skill and all those shadows and grey shading effects you noticed are almost certainly very deliberate choices.
The scene when the tried to shot the one man and the gun jammed really happend.
The train with the women was routed to Auschwitz because of sanitation rules.
Besides of the cruelness the Nazis showed, they had also a love for rules and guidelines.
It was an SS rule that all prisoners who are transfered must have quarantine and also body searches in the intimate area which was done by women for female prisoners.
The campe they were inteded to go did not have the facilities or staff for doing this. So the train was routed to the next camp, that could do this which was Auschwitz.
So it was not the intention to screw Schindler over in the first place but once they were in Auschwitz he had to intervene or they would not have been send back.
34:49 Oskar loved the parties. He loved drinking and he enjoyed women, he would be the one throwing the parties.
Thank you for this duty of memory.
Some scenes were not shot at all. Goeths crimes were so cruel, sadistic and inhumane that the producers thought the viewers might perceive them as constructed only for the film, thus damaging the whole work. I am German and the so-called "German culture of remembrance" is a matter of course in our country. Every day, for example, there are documentaries on at least two channels that show the background of how Hitler was able to lever out parliament to come to power, the crimes of the GESTAPO (Secret state police) in their torture cellars, the deportation of the Jews, underlaid with original images from the concentration camps, the cruelest war crimes of the SS, which followed the Wehrmacht on the campaign and then brought unimaginable suffering to the rest of the population, which was also filmed at the time. (Some already in color, which makes the whole thing seem even more bizarre). Trenches, on the edges of which Jews were killed by the hundreds with shots to the neck, etc., etc., etc. In the German extermination camps, the women and children were gassed first, so that no more Jews could be born and grow up. Very few Germans wanted to have known about the concentration camps, which of course was complete nonsense. For example, thousands of apartments were suddenly vacant because the Jewish residents had been deported during the night. The very next day, "Aryan" Germans, mostly belonging to the party cadre, moved in. Then hundreds of civilian German guards were employed in the death camps, who were even proud of their "work" and bragged about it to their acquaintances and friends. I could give many more examples, which prove that it was total bullshit, when it was claimed not to have seen anything and not to know what was happening there
There are also "Stepstones". Small memorial plaques laid in the ground, so-called Stolpersteine, are intended to commemorate the fate of people who were persecuted, murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide during the National Socialist era. The square brass plaques with rounded corners and edges are inscribed with letters hammered in by hand using a hammer and hammer letters, showing e.g. who was deported in that house. They are usually set into the sidewalk or surface of the respective sidewalk at the same level in front of the last freely chosen homes of Nazi victims. On December 29, 2019 the 75,000th Stepstone was laid in Memmingen.
In any case, I am a little proud of the fact that in Germany, even more than 75 years after the war, these unimaginable crimes against humanity have been and are being dealt with.
While the black and white does transport us back in time, I think its significance is not wholly for that; the only color we see in the film are the Sabbath candles right before the all-out assault on Judaism begins, and then we see color again when Sabbath candles are lit toward the end of the film. The only other use of color is also a very strong and specific choice. The red jacket, Schindler's two viewings of this girl are pivotal because he recognizes the same girl and that is where he really transforms fully from 'businessman taking advantage of war' to 'businessman who starts to care about his Jewish workers' to, finally, at the first sighting of the coat, realizing just how dire their situation was to, on the second sighting of the coat, Schindler deciding to spend all of his money to save as many people as he was able to. Strong choices there, well thought-out.
BTW, Nazis didn't burn all the Jews' belongings. Most of it was sorted and stolen if it had monetary value (such as teeth with gold fillings, jewelry, works of art, religious objects of precious metals, hair for wigs - Jewish women's hair was coveted and desired for this usage) and a lot of the rest of it was given to Germans, including clothing, furniture, automobiles and homes, redistributed: to high-ranking Nazis if the property was upscale, and to German citizens where the properties were from poor or middle class Jews. Wartime Germany was deeply impoverished. Hitler's war of aggression (along with his counterparts in Italy and Japan) destroyed about a third of Europe and Asia, (devastated Poland and Russia) as well as parts of Africa, and cost the world about 80,000,000 lives. The physical damage done to Germany alone took decades to repair, restore, rebuild and replace. War sucks. There isn't anything cool about war.
Spielberg spent about a decade researching for this film, interviewing as many Schindler Jews as he could find, along with diving into German records and accounts. This movie is about as accurate as possible, other than the obvious - - several years of war converted into three or four hours of film. But, yes, the types of incidents you're asking about were real people's experiences. Spielberg's research work became the beginning of The Shoah Foundation. Over time, about 55,000 Holocaust survivors gave videotaped accounts and testimonies, and it's all available for public viewing. The Shoah Foundation, to this day, continues to track, document and report on genocides around the world.
Nazi women were known to be some of the most evil toward their 'charges' from physical and sexual abuse to extra twisted kinds of cruelty. They were regarded as total sadists. Though, yes, in any situation, there are always going to be people who are exceptional (such as Schindler) but there were not many, and certainly in the camps, a very small percentage.
Very interesting reaction. Analytical but also with some pretty deep commentary. Good work on this. Thank you for reacting to this film.
great reaction, you are a good man Elie❤
Thank you
The music was fabulous. It was just the cherry on top of the most amazing film.
I believe that the reason you were so transfixed by the violin player was that it was none other than Itzhak Pearlman playing the main theme. Because of the historical significance of the movie, he waved his very substantial fees to do it. Of course, a John Williams score doesn't hurt!
One of the things about "Schindler's List" is that it's not the story of a good guy. It's a transformation story. He was out to make a buck and if that meant using the system as much as possible with a lot of bribes thrown in, that was fine. Take a look at that first desk scene that you liked so much with the two men sitting at their desks having a conversation. You commented about you liked that the camera held the oner and didn't cut to each person. This also showed just how far apart these two men, Jew and Gentile were sitting from each other for a myriad of different reasons. They sat closer throughout the movie and Oscar grew as a person.
My heart broke for you when you mentioned that you hadn't noticed what happened with the little girl in the red coat! Speaking of kids, did you notice how that one boy was not shot on camera while nothing else was held back? Spielberg refused extend the graphic violence to children and I thank him for that.
Really good catch on the man praying in Hebrew fading out and the noise of the Nazis becoming more prevalent! I really like when you have something specific to point out with sound design. Nothing wrong with pointing out when it's good or anything, it's just most f the time, it's hard to quantify unless it's bad. lol. I enjoyed this one very much!
Thank youuuu❤
You mentioned that you wondered whether, in all actuality, the camp commander shot his rifle from the balcony of his villa. Apparently, and according to some accounts, he did: He would "do his shooting after rising, before breakfast," to set for tone for the day.
Interesting analysis; I liked how you did not get carried away emotionally while watching the film, so that you could effectively concentrate on the technical aspects of the cinematography: such as shooting angles, frames and the like, all of which was useful to learn in order to better appreciate the film.
That was Liam Neeson, in the last shot, yes.
Interesting to notice that, at the end of the film he (while still in character, as Schindler) had asked his workers to observe three minutes of silence for their deceased family members... Then, in the scene that follows, the director had the very survivors (now aged) observe a minute of silence for Schindler himself.
Another interesting bit of trivia that I've read about the film: Is that Spielberg directed it with the intention to fulfill a graduation requirement from film school, which he had dropped out from, in order to make movies: His mastery of (shooting the film in) B&W alone, ought to have earned him an honorary doctorate, I'd say.
In Germany, at least when I went to school, it was shown in history classes to everybody.
Speilburg revealed that he took NO payment for the making of this film, he said that it would have feeling like taking BLOOD MONEY!
When the film came out there were news reports about incidents in movie theaters, with people laughing or talking even during some of the most brutal scenes, particularly one large group of mostly minority New York City high school students. When questioned, a woman who had laughed at the young female engineer being shot in the head looked confused and said, "It's only a movie." Spielberg visited the high school to talk to the students. You can still find some reports online; search for something like "Schindler's List theater incidents".
The Pianist is also a very good movie portraying sheer survival of a famous pianist during ww2
12:30 that IS an interesting take. I never thought of it that way. Although he didn't flip out at the old man because of some lingering decency and the need to maintain a friendly image on his part, Schindler certainly perceived the old man to be useless. And ironically it was only after the man was dead did he become somewhat 'useful' to Schindler in that he could demand compensation.
I was going to suggesy this movie a couple weeks ago, but i assumed everyone has seen it.
Get some tissues
Speilberg said the little firl in the red jacket represents all the unseen and forgotten children's. This little girl is a very bright Scarlett red jacket and nit one person notices her except for Schindler and us the audience
*suggest
Amon Goeth was worse than he is depicted here. They said in interviews that what he did was too gruesome to show and it would not serve the film, but just show gore
"I'm here to have a great time"
You, uh, you may have picked the wrong movie for that, sir. Though it's an important watch, no doubt.
Yep definitely was a roller coaster. An eye opening one of all proportions. A great masterpiece in storytelling
Hi Elie, This might help you about the girl in red. The girl in the red coat is a symbol of individuality and innocence in Schindler's List, representing the needlessness of war. Spielberg's use of color for the girl's coat emphasizes her importance in the film and makes her relatable to audiences. NB: Spielberg refused to accept any money from the profits of the film as he thought it would be considered "Blood Money".
In the Krakow ghetto the calorie ration for a worker was 650 calories a day. Less if you could not work. Were a child, elderly, pregnant, were a care giver.
Imagine how you would function mood, thought and strength wise on 650 calories a day. For how long.
It was great listening to your commentary - I enjoy hearing other perspectives. I agree that the cinematography, production, and other values couldn't be higher. It is such a beautifully made film, even though difficult (and so important) to watch. Spielberg obviously poured a lifetime's knowledge and experience into this masterpiece. Example include, the scenes with Stern and Schindler sitting at opposite sides of tables (and the frame) reminded me so much of how Orson Wells' _Citizen_ _Kane_ portrayed the evolution of the main character's marriage, the use of deep focus, and touches of color to pick out important moments in the narrative (which dates all the way back to silent films). Career-best performances by all the actors - even the extras. Schindler was far from all good, but the film's portrayal of his character arc is nothing short of genius.
I get that you're trying to look at the filmmaking, but the details of the plot and characters are just as important. if you weren't focusing so hard on the focus of the camera, you'd have known that Emilie was his wife, not ex, as they'd JUST said that. Try actually paying attention to the movie, and not getting so lost in the trees that you can't see the forest. Look at it from all angles! ;) BTW, they didn't burn the clothes; the clothes that were in good condition were sent to the big cities and resold in thrift shops. Clothes not in good condition were turned into rags for cleaning.
Again, if you read the book, Amon Goeth used to start every day by shooting prisoners from his balcony. He actually enjoyed it. A very sick, twisted, and evil man! 😢
If you do want to see a documentary, I highly *highly* recommend Shoah (1985). No archival footage, just interviews with survivors and visits to overgrown historic sites.
Approximately 1.00.00 The polite man asking the women questions is Dr. Josef Mengele
This is not a movie about good and evil - it’s about choices. The juxtaposition of Oskar Schindler who worked within the nazi system to ultimately do a great good, and Amon Goeth who worked within the same system to do horrendous things - both were German, both were powerful, both were nazis - it was their choices that mattered. And this movie is extremely factual.
Your question about the regime guards leads me to recommend a book called "The Lucifer Experiment". It's a serious mistake to think that we as "good" people would never be susceptible to this behavior again, and I think the book, backed by some beautiful case studies, does a beautiful job of explaining why that is.
The Pianist is an excellent true story I highly recommend that shows something you were asking about regarding the Nazis in this movie.
the real amon goth is more brutal than you can ever imagine spielberg adjust that to make people believe because people will not believe if the scene depicts real amon
Amon Göth really existed and he was even worse than portrayed in the film. His granddaughter is colored! She has often been on German television and found out by accident that she is the granddaughter and Göth. Her grandmother is the woman in bed at the mansion. She committed suicide in the eighties.
Hacksaw Ridge is also a true story from WWII. The first conscientious observer to get the Medal of Honor.
Amon Goeth was even more evil in real live. The jews i talked to years ago said the fear one felt when he was near, no one can imagine. Putting ordinary people like Goeth in positions of almost unlimited power can lead to such excesses. Many of those concentration camp nazis were ordinary people like your next door cobbler, your butcher, your teacher. They wouldn't have killed someone in their normal life. Its really frightening to think about that.
Goeth is actually born 2 blocks away from my apartment here in Vienna.
31:44 yes, he would shoot them for sport. As a matter of fact, they had to tone down this character, because he was so much more vicious and maniacal in real life. It would have been too much for people to see. It was bad enough that Ralph Fiennes looked so much like him.
you need to know that schindlers personality was much more complicated, he was not only bussinesman, he was member of abwehr, which was military inteligence service, he was highly inteligent and his neighbors when he was young was juds and he grows up with their sons as his friends. For him they wasn´t just an unknown enemies, he knew them well. He was sympatetic to germany as native german to want germany to win war ..... he was playboy enought to want alot of money, ..... he was smart enought to play with big guys......and he was inteligent enought to recognize soon enought when things will go down. Every smart person knew war will end sooner or later and things will calm down and juds will be part of society again and thay will rebuild their wealth as thay did manny times in history. We are looking at that with todays eyes so we can´t really understand everything because our set of life experiences is different than back in that times.
To co spadało z nieba to nie śnieg tylko popiół po spalonych ludzkich ciałach.
I recommend The Pianist by Roman Polanski, it is also about the Holocaust, they are like the 2 most outstanding films on this subject, it also has very hard moments to see.
I can’t stomach anything by Roman Polanski anymore. Child rapists just don’t interest me.
saying it's a "crime against humanity" to not have watched this movie is such an uncanny choice of word :/
If you read Thomas Keneally's book, in this part Schindler's attention was just totally captivated by the sight of this little girl in a bright red coat just walking untouched amidst all slaughter. This was the point at which he realized the truth about how the Nazis were treating these people.
Everyone should watch this film. Amazing performances. A lesson....if we all do one thing maybe the world would be a better place. I don't understand the cruelty but we know it exists.
You definitely need to watch "The Pianist"
Na filmie pokazano jak puszczają wodę i ludzie mają prysznic. Tak naprawdę kłamanie że idą do łaźni a z rur na wodę wpuszczano do ciasno stłoczonych nagich ludzi gaz. Kilka minut krzyku i nastawała cisza. Następnie palono w piecach ciała stąd ten popiół z ludzkich ciał.
Save "It's a Wonderful Life" for around Xmas. It's considered an Xmas movie, and I bet you'll get more views on it if you release it in December.

Hi Elie - I always enjoy and learn much from film reactions made by film studies students. However, I really had to switch off from this one as I couldn't get past the ridiculous cartoon pirate which lay at the centre of the video. I know you need to stay within copyright laws, but please try to tailor this to the nature of the film being reviewed. Schindler's List is serious business, probably the most impactful film of all time, and yet you accompany it with a laughing caricature of Captain Hook. Sorry to be so negative.
Sorry Elie. You have not been able to capture the genius of how Spielberg was able to bring that past into the present.
מי שהציל נפש אחת כאילו הציל עולם ומלואו
Who that saved a single soul as if he saved the world entire
Have you watched "Jojo Rabbit"? It's not based on a true story, but it's a very accurate depiction of the last months of WWII in Germany, seen through the eyes of a 10 year old boy. It's supposed to be a comedy, and it is funny at times, but it will probably also make you cry. Some details are easy to miss, too, you only see them the second or third time watching.
Love jo jo rabbit saw it in theatres
I feel like you separated yourself by watching so clinically as a film student. You were pausing every other moment to talk about sound editing, video framing, blood effects...just watch the movie and actually absorb what took place
You're 100% right, Not every single shot and scene in the movie has a deeper meaning we should be looking for, But people get really mad when you tell them this and they feel attacked
31:33 Yeah, Amon Göeth actually did shoot the camp workers for his own pleasure
There is a biracial German woman, the offspring of a German woman and a Nigerian man. As an infant she was placed in orphanage by her mother, she was adopted at age of 7. Until her adoption she had contact with her mother and grandmother. She lost contact with her birth family. After graduation from high school , first spent time in Paris where she became friends with an Israeli woman. Her friend invited her to visit Israel. This visit was more than a vacation, she spent several years there studied and learned Hebrew. Eventually she returned to Germany where she got married and became a mother. At the age of 38 when visiting the library, she discovered a book written about being the child of a Nazi war criminal. Browsing through the book she recognized the pictures of two women. The younger woman was her mother and the older her Grandmother. It was then that Jennifer Tiege realized she is the Granddaughter of Amon Gothe. Her book is "My Grandfather would have shot me ".
It nearly killed Spielberg to make this, he was a wreck but produced a masterpiece. 😢❤
Most scenes are copied and taken from Rossellini’s movie : Roma Citta Aperta
761 views Casablanca you questioned a hope in success for the channel. Would you say it has been disappointed or success with 761 views so far?
Disappointed but hopefully more will come in the words of King Theoden. Algorithm works in mysterious ways.
@@eliemoses yes. Without referring to it I was thinking the algorithm.
I see it took months for other reactors to reach average between 5,000 view to 200,000 view I see the reactor Popcorn in Bed so far has the most Casablanca views. So yeah maybe in time.
@@StoryOfUsFinalDraft we keep going 🤝
Some of your "joy" was very off-putting for me. There was a lot of coldness in this reaction.
Spielberg's intention in making this film was to tell the story and bring the audience into that story. None of that can be seen in this reaction. You analyze the film as it was made but miss the whole storyline. This is stupid and ignorant and was certainly not Steven Spielberg's goal. You say it hurts to watch but you are smiling.
Exactly
In my opinion every reactor should pause when speaking on a matter or discussing a scene from the movie they are watching. To me people who complain about pausing make 0 sense, instead they should be complaining about people who talk over every scene of the movie they are watching while missing dialogue. It's annoying and a throw off, i immediately stop watching when a reactor talks over a scene for 30 seconds without stopping
Thank you 🫡
Too.much pausing
Dont think this is the sort of film you comment on in terms of the technical aspect !!
If you want to watch real movies, don't watch anything after 2003. It's all just about money after that. With a few exceptions.
Yes we get it wise one, we’ve all seen the movie.
Of course reactors have to pause but not every 5 seconds! And talking that much feels unfortunately a bit like you are missing empathy (which I don't believe). Contrary to you I think this movie needs to be talked LESS over every line, and not every emotional scene has to be analysed in a-matter-of-fact-tone. That makes it very uncomfortable to watch. I so hoped you would get it naturally after a while, but no...
I reacted to several other film makers who combined the talk about camera ankles, film making, different takes with showing emotion quite naturally at the same time.
At least you are saying its a great movie. Still your reaction left me a bit uncomfortable compared to so so many ithers I watched...
But thanks that you watched it, different people, different reactions...
