Hans is high but I don’t think he beats javier in no country. He def killed the role tho. That’s a tough ? Villains in general would have to really think.
His facial transformation before questioning “You’re sheltering enemies of the state” is so cold blooded. One of the best acted moments I can remember, period.
It's the best part of the movie. A lot of it is just a revenge fantasy with less developed characters than Once Upon A Time In Hollywood's, and where the stereotypical behaviour of the villians and good guys is swapped
People can say what they want about Tarantino, but if they don’t give him credit for writing among one of the most suspenseful scenes in cinema, then I know that they’ve just got a problem with Tarantino and any critique they are giving of his films are invalid.
i always interpreted the cigarette on the strudel as a non verbal action to say to Shoshanna that he didn't wanted the cake, it has been only an instrument to play that cat and mouse theatrical scene
it's also interesting to me how the glass of milk in the beginning it's something very valuable for a family mostly isolated in the countryside and in need to feed themselves, while at the restaurant asking for a glass of milk is a belittling of the person who'll drink it
2:54 That moment is one of my favorite moments of acting ever. Waltz gives the faintest shift of his expression and you can feel the air flee from the room.
As an actor, you know you're KILLING IT when the slightest facial expression change, can flip the mood of the entire scene. That has to be an incredible feeling.
I also think it’s super interesting what his fate ends up being too… a swastika right on his forehead permanently. Hans Landa is no longer allowed to play as an actor or hide who he is/ his interests but now they are permanently on display, taking away his strengths.
I like to think that he didn't know she was Shoshanna. He used the non-kosher strudel as a fail-safe, something he's likely done many times as the Head of Security (as Goebbles introduces him), and I think that he had a strong feeling that he knows her from s*o*m*e*w*h*e*r*e but usn't exactly sure where. Hense why when he can't figure it out he stubs his cigarette into the strudel as a way to lash out for his frustraition. Therefore, that's TWICE that Shoshanna narrowly escaped Landa.
I saw the cigarette as the extinguishing of his building violence and rage. But this isn't bad. He is on the hunt, stalking his prey but fails to capture them.
Totally agree! I always felt like we are supposed to be given the impression that maybe he knows her and is toying with her. But certain expressions of his make me feel like he truly doesn’t recognize her and is frustrated, knowing that he’s missing something but he can’t imagine what
7:15 Maybe it wasn't intentional, but the strudel with the cigarette looks like a house with a chimney. My first thought, though, was him making a big deal about the strudel but using it like an ashtray as if it didn't matter.
He doesn’t recognize her. He saw her from behind, far away, years ago. He mentions he doesn’t know what they look like in the opening scene. The tension isn’t coming from “does he recognize her”, it’s from “does he realize she recognizes him”
Btw Apfelstrudel is really delicous and we eat it at nearly every family coffee meet. Anyway what i really like about the movie is not only the thick tension you mentionend but also that Landa is very humanly(?) evil. Not like 90% of the movies out there where the nazis are comically evil, like kicking puppies or something, but he could be basically your neighbour and in the next scene kill you for housing jewish people or because you are in the way of his ambitions. On top of that you have the tension of an oppressed, occupied france lingering in the back of your head and how low the worth of a human life was.
And that's how many Nazis acted in post-war germany. Many didn't knew that their neighbor or sometimes even father was an SS officer or war criminal. They became loving fathers and grandfathers, helpful and friendly neighbors. It were humans that did all those cruel things and maybe many people we know would do the same when in a position of power
I gotta say, that is my favorite scene since it came out too! but for the silly reason that it is thanks to THAT scene I learned to like struddel, thanks to him grabbing the bit of cream, and his curious way of eating it so nervously. I used to dislike that pastry but now I eat it to remember that scene, its a perfect "eating in films" moment for me.
Ive watches a lot of scene dissections of the this movie. But never have I enjoyed a video more, than yours. The composition and when to insert your commentary and the movies’ fits very well.
The cigarette in the sturdle highly resembles the cabin. Don't think it's coincidence, the shot angle, presentation and shape of the strudel and placement of the cig is all too on point.
The beauty of that scene is either way it was just as intimidating, it works both ways if he didn't know it was her, it still showed how scary he can be and if he did its even more scarier
The strudel scene keeps telling the audience that it's all about the strudel... until it isn't. It's the MacGuffin, and finally serves only as Landa's ashtray. Yes, the suspense comes from wondering whether Landa recognizes Shoshanna -- because Shoshanna is wondering if he recognizes her. It's her scene, not his. He's in complete command of every moment in the opening scene, his first encounter with Shoshanna, but this time the emphasis is on HER (and us) not knowing what he knows. And the movie intentionally withholds a definitive answer. Because it's about the doubt, not the certainty.
Landa does recognize Shoshanna, if he didn't, it wouldn't fit with his other interrogations. In all of his interrogations, he knows everything already, and is just testing his subject to see if their story is good, and if they will hold up to questioning. His interrogation of the farmer: Landa tells the farmer where the families are hiding, he doesn't even have the farmer tell him, so this reveals he knew all along. His interrogation of Hammersmark and the Basterds: He laughs openly at her mountain climbing story, not because he suddenly realizes who they are, but how bad the back story is. He also corrects the Basterds on their own pronunciation of their Italian aliases.
8:16 he didn’t kill von hammersmark for being a traitor, he killed her for being the only one who truly deceived him and was almost able to slip under his radar. Ironic that her plan consisted primarily of ‘acting’, just like Landa.
does anyone know what the name of the piano piece starting at 6:12 is? Shazam leads me nowhere unfortunately, if I had to guess it would be something like debussy, ravel or so...
Great video! He really nailed this role in a really uncomfortable way; since I saw this movie, I have an icky feeling when I see him acting in other roles, no matter how contradictary that feeling is. What's even more impressive is that this happens although I have face blindness to some degree - usually I don't even recognize actors and get lost in the movie plot because of it, but this role sure as h*ll was something else! 🙌
Never really thought Landa actually recognized her 4 years after he killed all her family. He only saw her running away with her face and clothes covered in blood. Then we don't see what happens after she somehow escapes. The question is, why would he let her live instead of having her arrested on the spot? And Landa always comes across as naturally suspicious of anyone who isn't wearing a German uniform.
I think Hans Landa killed Van Hammersmark not because she was a spy, he killed her because he was so disgusted with her terrible back story and preparation of her "Italian" escorts. He let Shoshanna go (even though he knows who she is), because she had a good backstory and didn't flinch from his final stare, not to mention he was planning to bbq the high command that night anyway, so anything she could have done security wise was inconsequential. He killed the Farmer's jewish family because the Farmer cracked under the pressure and gave them up. But he already knew the family was there. I seriously believe he would have let them all go if the Farmer didn't crack and had a better performance at the interrogation.
Hes scary because before even spewing your lies he knows you're lying but i guess he just wants to see your "creativity" in spinning shit.notice in the film he only deals with liers or people gassing them selves up in his scenes.
yes, he knows its her. when he says "Aurevoir, Shaushana!" hes looking at the back of her head, so hes seen a photo of her and knows what she looks like. its probably safe to assume that she is the only one to have escaped his murders so its a face he would likely not forget.
I love the strudel scene too. There is literally so much to chew on! Does he recognise her? I honestly don't know but I love thinking it over ever time I watch it.
It's one of my favorites of his as well. Perhaps because it was originally meant to be a TV series, every character feels like they have so much more going on that we don't see onscreen, but what we do see is tantalizing.
Ayy a fellow Nightingale viewer lol. That was a pretty tough movie to watch, but the journey it took me on and the ending made it worth it to me. It's a tough one to recommend given its contents, so I fully get it if someone doesn't want to watch it. But if one can handle it/think they can handle it... It is 100% worth watching.
What scared me is that when he talks/questions people he asks like friend then out of nowhere he turns cold and serious the same way he did to the milk farmer
Personal theory is that he knew it was Shoshanna in the strudel scene, but didn't want the unnecessary headache of dealing with Goebbels should the theater he picked for his premiere be tossed out. Now, later in the film, he does seem willing to ruin the premiere to expose Operation Kino, but only because it posed a threat to the high command's lives. He likely thought Shoshanna wouldn't be a danger, provided he gave her a scare, and the lingering doubt over whether or not he knew who she was.
I never tought about the Strudel having a huge role in the scene. I always seen this interrogation as Landa trying to provocate Emmanuelle into lashing out about Landa's behaviour about her country. He mentions the cigarettes being german like thats something superior, he talks incredibly disrespectful about Emanuelle's boyfriend, and if i remember correctly he says the Strudel is pretty good in the restaurant although its french, and extinguishing the cigarette is also just that: a stinky disgusting german cigarette fucking up a beutiful and tasty french Strudel (which is a german dish so it could symbolize french pretending to like the germans, and Landa shitting on all that) unnecesseraly. All of his behavior in the scene is about him being a superior german, and he is curious how much that behavior boils Emmanuelle's blood. I honestly never considered the opportunity of him recognizing her. In the first scene of the movie she is running away, she was younger and far away from Landa, facing away from him, so with all of his skills and talents he couldn't possibly recognize her from that first encounter. I firmly believe the scene was only playing out so creepily to show how stressed Soshana is. She had a traumatic event the last time she seen and heard this man, so the restaurant scene was an actually harmless check-up on Emmanuelle, but since we know what happened we as the viewers feel like Soshana and we view this harmless event as a possible threat to our protagonist.
The thing is, for the mostpart you can say "okay, he probably does this for everyone, to make sure they aren't Jewish, by eating something non-Kosher. But _milk_ specifically? Did she pass the smell test? Or did he just spare the war hero's damsel?
I don't think he knows who she is based on the fact he never saw her face when she was under the house and I'm sure if he knew he would have arrested her but like said it doesn't really matter.
He recognised her but at the same time he is an oportunist who hunted jews not because he hated them but becasue he was in the position to save his own live by doing it so there was no conviction therefore there was no reason to let her cover blow at the desk, he just wanted to play a little more becasue he didnt hated her he just wanted to satisfy his needs, narcissistic for sure. He woulve killed peopel even if the war never happened.
i love that tarantino has so much street cred that he can just get any actor he wants, they just gonna say yes sir i'm in. Shame that he is about to retire.
3:06 Jews can mix meat and milk. it's a missinterpretation of the commandment ''you shall not boil a (goat) kid in its mother's milk''. It actually means: if the animal is pregnant and you kill and cook it then it's not kosher.
Your comment about Hans Landa being an actor, as well as the contradiction aspect, is that his job is to find people and the reason he is so effective is that his job doesn't require him to be an actor, (he's a detective that deals with facts and proof), but his skill and reputation come from being a superior actor than the people who are acting to protect the people he's looking for. The opening scene, the restaurant table scene, the strudel scene, they are a contest of the characters hiding intentions while revealing true facts as a way of keeping intentions hidden. Real life actors play roles that are nothing like they are in real life, and nothing like they could ever be. And the best real life actors are admired for knowing they aren't like the characters, but have people finding them believable. So Hans Landa engaging with the people he's conversating with, is blatantly out acting people who are acting with him, making a person that sinister have a contradicting admirable quality that even the people who detest him have to acknowledge.
One popular theory was that the strudels at the time were often made with pig lards due to butter shortage! But as stated, doesn't rlly matter at the end of the day
Such an ignorant question and statement. If you were a vegetarian and knew that something was being cooked in animal fats that wasn't meat, you would decide not to eat it. I worry for our world. I really do
"So you're "the Jew Hunter". " A detective. A damn good dectective. Finding people is my specialty so naturally I work for the Nazis finding people, and yes some of them were Jews. But "Jew Hunter"? " It's just a name that stuck." Hans Landa is hands down the best character Tarantino ever written, and may i say one of the best characters ever written in fiction
I think the best argument against Hans Landa knowing that Emmanuelle was Shoshana is the fact that not only would Hans have to know who she is, the audience would have to understand the significance of strudel not being kosher. Like, I'm sure we all understand the "no pork" part, but how many of us would immediately know off the top of our head that there are pork products used in strudel? Probably not many. It doesn't do Tarantino any good to show off how good he is at writing or how smart his characters are if it goes over the head of 99% of the audience. Besides, Tarantino has never been super "subtle". If he wants to say something, usually he just goes right out and says it.
tarantinos formula is not that sophisticated, he creates genuine characters not some fake villains that are just evil for the sake of being evil, he makes you hate them for 2 hours and then delivers 2 minutes of justice and you leave the cinema with your mind blown... i have no idea why others cant learn from him

Jack Wilson
Easily, Frank Costello in teh Departed
hans is definitely levitating in the top but cmon megamind is there too
Definitely on top plus Hopkins as Lecter, Ledger as Joker, Bale as Psycho, Depp as Bulger. So many that I love to hate.

07:11 I always thought that the cigarette over the cake was his way of drawing a visual parallel with the house where he committed that massacre.
Inglorious Basterds is such a cool and chilling movie. The opening scene and the dinner scene are the most tense scenes in the movie in my opinion.
The Nightingale is a movie I can only watch once & never again. Still, I'll never forget the pain & terror of that house scene. Great recommendation.

He woulve killed peopel even if the war never happened.
is lying to the enemy really “being a traitor”?
i love that tarantino has so much street cred that he can just get any actor he wants,
they just gonna say yes sir i'm in.
Shame that he is about to retire.
Except he definitely wrote oswaldo mobray for christoph waltz but I think I read waltz turned it down.
@@matthewhiggins1574 i think it was just a rumor no? did any of them actually say that?
Can I get link of this movie
I just saw The Entity recently. Crazy use of the pounding track from it.
참신한게 너무 재미있었습니다~ 😁
3:06 Jews can mix meat and milk. it's a missinterpretation of the commandment ''you shall not boil a (goat) kid in its mother's milk''. It actually means: if the animal is pregnant and you kill and cook it then it's not kosher.
Here's me hoping for a video on The Nightingale next.
부디 한국어 자막을...!

The first time I saw that scene I was really tense and expecting an outburst of violence and the only "violence" was the destruction of the strudel.
Why would there be violence in the middle of a peacefull restraunt
This might be random, but i want to start making video essays. how do u include clips without getting copyright claimed?
It's fair use in transformative works for the purpose of criticism and education.
Id like to hear your thoughts on Whiplash and the themes behind it
Your comment about Hans Landa being an actor, as well as the contradiction aspect, is that his job is to find people and the reason he is so effective is that his job doesn't require him to be an actor, (he's a detective that deals with facts and proof), but his skill and reputation come from being a superior actor than the people who are acting to protect the people he's looking for.
The opening scene, the restaurant table scene, the strudel scene, they are a contest of the characters hiding intentions while revealing true facts as a way of keeping intentions hidden.
Real life actors play roles that are nothing like they are in real life, and nothing like they could ever be. And the best real life actors are admired for knowing they aren't like the characters, but have people finding them believable.
So Hans Landa engaging with the people he's conversating with, is blatantly out acting people who are acting with him, making a person that sinister have a contradicting admirable quality that even the people who detest him have to acknowledge.

Why wouldn’t a strudel be kosher ?? There’s no porc in it. It’s a pastry made out of apple sauce and pie-crust.
One popular theory was that the strudels at the time were often made with pig lards due to butter shortage! But as stated, doesn't rlly matter at the end of the day
@@SpikimaMovies then… I stand corrected :)) by the way, still a fan of your videos 😋
Such an ignorant question and statement. If you were a vegetarian and knew that something was being cooked in animal fats that wasn't meat, you would decide not to eat it. I worry for our world. I really do
@@halcyondaystunes If you're not happy with it, you are free to leave this world whenever you want, dear
Lard ( pig fat) is in the crust.
Definitely your most incoherent video to date.
PERFECTION
"So you're "the Jew Hunter".
" A detective. A damn good dectective. Finding people is my specialty so naturally I work for the Nazis finding people, and yes some of them were Jews. But "Jew Hunter"?
" It's just a name that stuck."
Hans Landa is hands down the best character Tarantino ever written, and may i say one of the best characters ever written in fiction
This man forgot he wasn’t a rabbi for a second
9:06 that's all?! Lol
I think the best argument against Hans Landa knowing that Emmanuelle was Shoshana is the fact that not only would Hans have to know who she is, the audience would have to understand the significance of strudel not being kosher. Like, I'm sure we all understand the "no pork" part, but how many of us would immediately know off the top of our head that there are pork products used in strudel? Probably not many.
It doesn't do Tarantino any good to show off how good he is at writing or how smart his characters are if it goes over the head of 99% of the audience.
Besides, Tarantino has never been super "subtle". If he wants to say something, usually he just goes right out and says it.
This and Once upon a time in Hollywood are my favourite Tarantino films

Next to Darth Vader, Hans Landa is easily my favorite villain EVER.

Never thought he was SCARY, he isnt a ghost or something. Hes a compelling character for shure. Maybe INTIMIDATING is a better word for him.
tarantinos formula is not that sophisticated, he creates genuine characters not some fake villains that are just evil for the sake of being evil, he makes you hate them for 2 hours and then delivers 2 minutes of justice and you leave the cinema with your mind blown...
i have no idea why others cant learn from him
