    When Richard and Anthony (well, the memory of Anthony) talk about Richard coming to the school the dialogue is very revealing. Everyone held Richard's hand, but Anthony didn't. He 'didn't have to'. Richard was embarassed by Anthony and told him that he didn't have to, knowing that his borther was simple enough to accept this and that it would save him from having to publically take ownership of the fact that he's related to this 'spastic'. He ultimately considers himself to also be a monster, except that he chose to distance himself from Anthony instead of tormenting him. He doesn't just revenge against the small-town 'gangsters', but also his past self, who failed to be a big brother.

  • @Ian-lx1iz
    @Ian-lx1iz 5 месяцев назад +9

    Something that always 'gets' me in this movie, is the hidden journey that Richard takes in his relationship with his brother. It's _also_ part of the twist.
    At the start we see Richard & Anthony engaged in simple reminiscences, where we learn how much Anthony loved and was proud of his big brother. OK - Anthony's a lovely kid - we get it.
    However, at the end we learn 1) that Richard hated him. He hated his 'spastic brother' who was a 'fur-king embarrassment to me' and more importantly, 2) that Anthony _died_ quite a while before. What?? Suddenly the penny drops.
    All those cozy reminiscences between R & A, were actually Richard coming to love his (deceased) disabled brother. He realises what a lovely kid he was, and how much Anthony adored him.
    Richard gives away a twinge of shame during the 'When you came to my school' reminiscence. Maybe Anthony's school mates were ALL disabled. They marveled at Richard who was brilliant at running and football, and they all held his hand - which Richard obviously didn't mind, and probably enjoyed - the adulation.
    However, Anthony _didn't_ hold Richard's hand. Why not? My guess is that at that time, Richard viewed Anthony as a 'fur-king embarrassment'. There was a slight awkwardness during the reminiscence when that fact was remembered.
    Anyway, on his journey, Richard learns to love Anthony, and exclaims that right at the end, in the cupboard where Anthony hanged himself. Richard proclaimed himself a monster, because HE didn't stop Anthony being bullied. Richard washed his hands, joined the Army and effed off away, leaving Anthony vulnerable to those despicable pigs. I think that's why Richard couldn't kill that last guy, because he'd done nothing worse than Richard - just stood to one side and let it happen.
    A tremendous story from Paddy Considine. An incredibly moving horror story. How does that even work?

  • @JosephMan485
    @JosephMan485 28 дней назад +3

    The bullying of Anthony is a very British abuse tactic, your bullies come with smiles, make you their friend, and then at your most vulnerable they initiate the horrific abuse. Usually, if you protest, they tell you that you can't take a joke, and that you're too sensitive (and made to feel like you're the weird one). Then, It's like the flipping of a switch and they're all friendly and smiles again (but that's just a scheme to ensure they can further abuse you).

  • @danmoss388
    @danmoss388 5 месяцев назад +8

    An exerpt from an article about the film: The actor then noted that the idea for Dead Man’s Shoes came from a time when he and Meadows were talking about the kind of malevolent occurrences that had gone on in their Midlands hometowns. “They were kind of atrocities, but they’d gone unnoticed and unrecognised,” he said. “Horrible things had happened, but they’d been done in the name of leisure almost.”
    “We started talking about incidents and thought, ‘Well, nobody ever really paid for that. Those guys are still going around today,'” Considine added. “[There’s] the idea of the brother coming back after ten years and kind of making the basic bones of it as a revenge movie.”

      i think from an outside perspective, outside of the UK people don't perceive that the quiet towns and villages in England could have this kind of thing happen (obviously i know it's not a true story) but yeah, these type of things did happen, i think every working class area in the North and Midlands will have had those people like Anthony in their community who everyone bullied and took advantage of and that there's a lot of shit holes with shitty people living in them, the "hard men" and drug dealers etc are well know and looked upto in these areas even though they're shitty people. There was a deaf kid on my estate and he got bullied badly one time even got tied up with chains and left in a shed, someone heard him screaming. Other things happened like people giving him joints that were made with allsorts laced in them and see what they did to him. This film hits hard. Toby Kebbel lived in the same town as me.

    Watching what Anthony went through, and the carnage that Richard created, isn't the most pleasant experience. I've never thought of it as a film made to be enjoyed, but it's definitely a film to be admired for the script, the photography and the incredible cast with nary a weak link.

    Your reaction to that scene with Anthony was exactly like my own when i first seen this movie. Complete shock and heartbeat at the same time. I love movies, but this one is probably the most powerfully emotional movies I've ever seen. Even watching this reaction video filled me tears again. Absolutely heartbreaking stuff.

    ''cheyne stoking' is a breathing pattern people have before they die. The guy who plays the main bad guy was an ex champion british boxer! (ps i love how at 16:03 he's so high he think she's still holding a cross bow and tries to shoot richard lol)

  • @Raskolnikov32

    Why is he so hellbent on treating Anthony that way?
    I remember Paddy saying in an interview at the time something about people in deprived areas with nothing to do committing atrocities as a form of entertainment.
    I grew up on a council estate in the UK, and the things done to Anthony in this film are absolutely a true reflection of everyday reality.
    Meadows is one of a small few of British filmmakers who shows the reality of life in the UK; it's grim, it's depressing, but it's true, for what that's worth.

    A great reaction. Really enjoyed watching an American enjoying such a British film. I love that it made you cry and all the emotional beats hit. I think one of the things that makes it great is he doesn't demonise the villains. They're never cartoon bad guys. He really understands those relationships.

    I've watched this reaction twice now. Good film. Good person.
    This film was made in 18 days. Was originally going to be a comedy and lost the lead actor weeks before filming started, Not Paddy. In those 18 days they filmed alternate scenes with Richard and Anthony. They would film the same scene with them both in and then with just one of them in the scene.

The Paddy Considine rabbit hole is worth doing too…The Journeyman is a great and highly underrated boxing film that deserves notably.

    I know they're horrible people, but Herbie, and the other 2 goons are hilarious to an iconic degree. "al fresco", Parmesan cheese and them rocking out to Gemini in the car are so funny. Meadows always makes you laugh before he makes you cry. Absolutely amazing film, probably my favourite
