why was he cool? he loses & gets killed for all his trouble. where's the cool part in that? i haven't watch the movie so i don't understand this particular scene.
Great movie and a great idea at the time in the 70's for a movie. Yul Brynner made the movie for me. When he comes on screen for the first time his presence was amazing. This bar scene is epic. The way Brynner flips the coin on the table..just the way he moved walked talked was amazing. "Sloppy with your drink" haha awesome.
Yep to that....I am a now old retired Engineer but even when I was a U.S. Recon Marine who was a young buck in '73 when this was released who wasn't scared of man nor beast I still remember thinking even though you know he is programmed to let you win the gun fight, it would still take big balls to turn and face Yul Brynner.
i always wanted too know what the Gunslinger was saying too james Brolin in His Room.. right before his buddy shoots him right through the window....... guess we will never know
I saw this movie as part of a matinee double feature along with "Soylent Green". I think I spent $3 for some good entertainment on a rainy Saturday afternoon.(ticket 50 cents...box of 48 peanut butter cups $1.50, etc.) Those were the days.
@@fearlessfosdick160 You nailed it my friend..1973 it was. That old theater in town is long gone. It was family run but sadly couldn't compete with the new multiplex that was built a few miles north.

"Westworld" was some way ahead of its time when released, and was not greatly acclaimed. Stands up better now that we are edging closer to some of the technological/moral issues which were the basis of the film.
“Ahead of his time”? - - I agree, very much so. If you get the chance, read the book that accompanied the movie. Crichton described computer viruses at a time computers were very primitive and nobody had even thought of computer viruses.
James Brolin was great in Capricorn 1 and brilliant in this movie, and can I say, despite being made way back then Yul Brenner was an awesome robot, the first terminator.
Saw him in '82 perform in the "King and I" in SF. An actor flubbed a line, and you could see Brynner trying to stay in character. The house went nuts, lol. I was in the nosebleed seats. He still looked like a BIG dude.
I once saw Yul Brynner, doing "The King and I" on stage. During the curtain call, he came out last and stood there, intensely STARING the audience down, DARING them not to stand and gave him a (well-deserved) standing ovation. It was a remarkable experience.
That's because he's playing a Robot in this scene that's programmed to lose. Later on in the movie he goes Haywire and becomes just like the Terminator.
Yul had one of the best ever voices for screen, up there with James Earl Jones, Morgan Freeman, Brian Blessed, Brian cox, Richard Burton, and the best of all Sir Anthony Hopkins.
@Leonard Chornomaz - and don't forget that Yul Brynner was most famous for his stage role as the King in the "King and I." It's possible some of his stiffness was from years of hard work in theater productions. He did have one of the best glares in the business, right up there with Jason Robards as Ben Bradlee in All the President's Men, and Paul Sorvino as Paulie in Goodfellas.
I was lucky enough to be 15 when this movie first came out at the theaters in 1973. Scared the shit out of me. This, Planet Of The Apes, and The Andromeda Strain rocked my world at the time.
I was 12 when this came out in 1973 and my mother wouldn't let me go because of the PG13 rating and the "blood and guts" she heard about. Saw it anyway...shhh don't tell her.
@Leonard Chornomaz - you could have all the violence you wanted, up to a point. But if someone drops a couple F bombs, then you get an R rating. I first saw Westworld on TV in the late 70s when I was a kid, and they didn't leave much out -- maybe some of the blood (?).
I think if someone bumped into me and knocked a drink over my shirt and that person turned out to be Yul Brynner, I'd say "Excuse me, Sir". And quietly walk out. He and Charles Bronson were two scary badasses.
I had a friend try to tell me that the “new” Magnificent Seven was better than the “old” one with Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, etc. I had to ask him not to change drug dealers because he was getting some really good stuff.
Actually this is one of the few times I can say I'm looking forward to an updated version. It's been decades since the original and the Westworld concept is chock full of possibilities.
ensteffo Calling it a remake is selling the show short imho. It's a genuine re-imagining. They've gone for a whole new angle compared to the movie and they're expanding on the Westworld concept massively. THIS is how you revisit old franchises.
I remember seeing this movie newly released at the Drive In about the time of Soylent Green. Yet another trippy movie then was The Andromeda Strain. SO MANY BETTER MOVIES!! The Exorcist, etc., etc., etc.
The movie that scared me the most in those days was Jaws, I saw it @ the drive-in....that 25 foot shark was nearly a hundred feet long......Today we would call it a Megalodon, but in '74 nobody knew what a Megalodon was...
Watched this movie ONCE back in 78. Scared the crap out of me, thinking that even in the seventies they were talking about AI taking over, and what that might mean. Towards the end of the movie, when AI Brynner had his meltdown, I turned it off, I couldn't watch it.
I remember, not long after this movie, "Westworld", was made, Yul was diagnosed with Terminal Cancer. He made a TV commercial where he literally BEGGED people to NOT smoke! He was one of my heroes after I saw him in the movie "Taurus Bulba".
How many of these cancers are really from smoking and how many from nuclear testing etc? And how about better cancer treatments? Medicine exposed as a joke with this Covid hoax.
@@davidnoone3254 it has always made me wonder,... since the invention of radio frequency transmitters, look what has happened to us. Radio, television, radar, satellite transmission, microwave frequency transmissions, cellular and more. Our bodies are being bombarded. And worse, no one has ever done any real research. And the little that has, has been very negative. We may very well be killing ourselves.
The Yul Brynner bot is thinking "that's the last time I allow myself to be shot by a slow-moving tin-horn pretend cowboy". I don't think any of these robots "malfunctioned". I think they simply learned to emulate the behavior of the depraved creatures who made them. That was the creepy message I got from this movie as a kid....
I was like 8 years old or something when this came on the tv once, I had bad dreams about it, not for the blood but the creepy lifeless stare the bald cowboy had. Strange tho, if he got killed off like this, i wonder why i fussed about it.
Not only was this film brilliant but it was quite ground breaking. And Yul Brynner was a fantastic actor. 👍👍👍
Lee Marvin i would add.
This performance inspired both Michael Myers in the Halloween movies, and the Terminator. That's incredible
This must have been a big influence on The Terminator

I saw him too. And after the long stare-down, he thrust his hands into the air and the theater went nuts!
Total badassery!
I saw him on stage too. Yul was sexy.
I saw him and slapped the bald nut and he cried like a baby
Yul Brynner was a bad-ass. Even as Pharaoh in the Ten Commandments.
That was probably his best performance.
His voice alone commands respect
^He was great in that too.
Was not too much of a bad ass in this scene.
That's because he's playing a Robot in this scene that's programmed to lose. Later on in the movie he goes Haywire and becomes just like the Terminator.

West World was the best sci-fi movie in that decade in my opinion. Yul Brenner was the best spooky cowboy ever!
VERY few stars have ever matched the sheer presence of Yul Brynner.
Yes this movie is how The Terminator movies were created
And then like Back To The Future, Pagemaster, Jumanji, and Zathura!
Yul Brunner is menacing in every scene in this film, really standout performer, the original Terminator
