the scene in Django unchained after the gunfight and Django runs out of ammo and surrenders..and they start playing Freedom by Richie Havens, omg..and the opening scene in IngloriousBasterds
and the scene where Django shows up in the Blue suit to get the Brittle Brothers ..I love that..Thats a hard question to answer because there are so many
Honestly...it's this one. I love Jules trying to piece together what his future will be like and who he is in Pulp Fiction, but this scene is Tarantino at his finest.
Perseus no repeats,Bible,the notes it was Vercase with some campaigns like a Liza Bliss with Gothic courtyard sucked in very nice with the clothes "I was Joan D'Arc and I was Pazuzu ahh." something in the millions the model "MJ.S.self made,don't worry the desighners made money" those campiaghns on notes I really can't,and us like a Lee Government movies coming out fine **s girls 18 and up,eternal life.
This entire scene made me a big fan of Christoph Waltz. His flawless acting made it most memorable. I like him for Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained and Carnage.
@@x332433 His breakout American role came in Quentin Tarantino's 2009 film Inglourious Basterds, where he played SS officer Hans Landa. He would later collaborate with Tarantino once again in 2012, where he played bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz in Django Unchained. For each performance, he earned an Academy Award, BAFTA Award, and Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor.
@@alexbosworth1582. That he didn't know Waltz was the lead character alongside Jamie Foxx in Django is a testament to Waltz's brilliance and range as an actor.
can you please refer to other good analysis that you remember? things that got stuck in your heard because it was too good... im trying to learn as much as i can.
I am a casual movie viewer. A musician with no intention on pursuing any sort of film career. However... This channel has forever changed my movie viewing experience for the better. There are so many new details to digest appreciate in each shot, and in each film; I can't thank you enough for your quality content. 🙏
FabledSomething Yeah but like you said "Tarentino", he said "all time", There's a difference. It's obvious the majority of fans of this movie, are already Tarentino fans. It doesn't get much recognition other than from that circle, and it should.
In Inception, I thought the way Christopher Nolan shot the dialogue scene between Cobb and Saito in “Saito’s apartment” was masterful, and the use of slow motion prior was spectacular, that entire scene is wonderful directing I think it would make for a great video just like this one did !
Brilliant breakdown of the scene, I love how the audience is led to believe that this scene will play out like so many others scenes with the good guys escaping. Instead, he subverts our expectations by having the “good guy” let us down allowing evil to triumph. I think it really sets the tone for the rest of the film as we no longer know what to expect out of any of the characters 👊🏻
The opening sequence of the farmer chopping at a stump is lifted from the western RIDE THE WHIRLWIND, directed by Monte Hellman (who was Executive Producer on RESEVOIR DOGS.)
I love how you explained it so simple! The underground bar scene when all in the room dies is one of my favourite. It could be awesome with a breakdown like this for that scene :)
Very interesting. I've written a short scene full of tension between two people in a similar situation in a short film. This will definitely help me decide how to shoot it. Visual storytelling is truly just as important as it's writing
Visual storytelling is truly crucial and often an overlooked aspect in most movies from up-and-coming filmmakers. Here's an article from our blog that dives into some cool cinematography techniques and tips, check it out: www.studiobinder.com/blog/cinematography-techniques-no-film-school/
wow... i have just discovered this channel. im amazed by the movies angle but i havent seen such a good explanation with graphics,etc. sorry for my english. claps for your work
You guys asked for us to ask for scenes we'd like you to analyze, so here we go: the shower scene in Psycho, the t-rex fight and empire state building climb in King Kong [1933], the building climb in Safety Last!, the billiards scene in Sherlock Jr., the chase scene in Seven Chances, the speech and dance with the globe in The Great Dictator, the final act of Monsieur Verdoux, the final act of and the lion scene in the Circus, the police station in Bringing Up Baby, the final speech and hangover scene in The Nutty Professor [1963], the sanity clause scene in A Night At The Opera, the tootsie frootsie scene in A Day At The Races, the hitchhiking scene in It Happened One Night, the climax of The Kid Brother, the visiting a army buddy and restaurant scenes in Playtime, the "Act like a samurai" scene in Seven Samurai, the beginning, introduction to Henry Fonda and first saloon scene[s] in Once Upon A Time In The West, the end scene of Casablanca, the Kansas, introduction to Oz, climax and end scenes of The Wizard Of Oz and the dance of the rolls, eating of the shoes, chicken and toppling house scenes in The Gold Rush. oh, and please make kid appropriate.
Can I please point out something you might have missed? The arcing shot at 6:37 happens during the moment the farmer is listing off the details of the Jewish family. As he divulges this information, the camera subtly crosses that 180 degree line, showing the this is the point where the Colonel takes FULL control. Metaphorically, it's a quite literally a power/perspective shift.
Now I am not in anyway educated in movie making, but if I was to describe what the rotating shot does, I would say it brings the conversation to some conclusion, ultimatum, inversely to what a panoramic shot does over some mountains and landscape. The latter shows me that the distances are vast and limitless, but if the rotation is pointing inwards it looks like whatever angle you loo from, "facts" are there. In this scene, the rotation is very slow, to fit the scene and to drive the point home purposefully, in tone with the flow of the conversation. If they were planning a bank heist, the rotation would most likely be much faster, and even the video itself would most likely to be sped up just to show the audience that it's definitely going down. I think it really devoids the audience from paying attention to the dialogue but rather realizing that the objective will be carried out; a point of no return so to speak. If I return to my previous example of "bank heist" - such shots often don't even include dialogue, which affirms that any conversation at that point is irrelevant. That is my wiev on rotating shots.
Inglorious basterds was my favorite tarantino movie until I saw 'The hateful eight'. The reason inglorius basterds was my favorite is this opening scene and the final scene of the movie. When i saw hateful eight, that charisma of opening scene was maintained in whole movie. All conversations were so well placed. I wished the movie could last a bit longer. And I was too happy when i found out there's an extended cut.
I absolutely love the breaking of conventional shots. Rather than stay on the line of action during parts of their conversation, the camera instead circles around the two of them in a way that clutches your attention. The shots done so perfectly as to better visually explain who holds the power and how landa is manipulating the situation with such ease. The shot which faces them side on, then slowly pans down to show the Jewish family under the floor boards must have cost so much time and money, but it really was perfect and worth every moment.
The 180 degrees rule isn't being broken when you said, since a circular travelling before changed the axis. But there's an axis jump when Landa shows his bigger pipe.
02:03 you can see his hand on her ankle kind of he is trying to feel her pulse to see how nervous she is as a subtle insight that he knows how to get the information of his opposite. very detailed thing to do
Would love seeing a breakdown on the D-Day beach landing in "Saving Private Ryan" (which ALL Presidents should watch before sending troops into a "situation"--even if justified)
The thing I find fascinating about that scene (or, I should say, one of the things...) is the balance between 'order' (which helps us follow the narrative without getting dislodged, spatially or chronologically from it) and 'chaos' (which allows us to feel the disorientation of battle).
Excellent breakdown. Very detailed and I loved the animations. One too - please don't show yourself. It breaks the concentration and is distracting. Just do a background narrative.
ooooh 8:36 the farmer leaning back, showing he relaxed generally, Landa leaning forward, as if on edge. should be the other way round. i acc spotted somthing lmao
Thank you for this brilliant breakdown of a truly magnificent scene. It just so happens that I was thinking about this scene 2 or 3 days ago and now it appears in my algorithm. Further proof that these phones can read our minds.
A great breakdown of the scene and camera work. The one thing that drives me crazy is how bright the light over the table is. I didn't notice this when I saw the movie the first time (in a Theater thank goodness). But having watched the scene dozens of times it just seems to be too bright.
A few people have mentioned Richardson here. I should have given him more credit, it's true. Director/DP collaborations are all quite different. Some directors (like Woody Allen) generally let the DP drive much of the shot choices. Others (like Spielberg) have a much more specific idea of where the camera should go or what it should achieve. Regardless, the DP plays a role (as does the editor, which others here have pointed out should have been mentioned).
It's like just when you can't take anymore, the first and only close up shots of the two characters are the climax (before the climax) and just break us.
You should had explain actions held at 12:24 with more detail cuz thats one of eye catching and thrilling scenes in a movie about Landa walking his way to door and watching Shoshana running
Perhaps the high angle shot is so menacing is because it is like a Hawk looking down on his prey, and that's how Lander describes the german/ Jew relationship.
There's other things in the scene too. Lander is always taking from the farmer, x2 glasses of milk, he picks up the farmers matches. He's comfortable taking from him. On the second glass has the farmer is pushing the glass to Lander across the table he's giving up information, taking information from him. Lander let's one get away. Presumably to tell the story of what happened this is something Aldo Raines and the Bastards do. Maybe the parallel of these two characters is why Lander feels so a kin with Aldo Raine in the last few scenes of the film. Which Aldo Raines doesn't feel the same way.
Whenever I watch these types of reviews, I always wonder QT watched and said outloud: "No, I did that shot frame because the flippin' trolley boom broke the night before!" or "We used that angle because the set carpenters forgot to build a camera platform for the angle I wanted but we were behind schedule!" ...just me
If he's watching, and saying these things, I want to know! It's certainly possible. But I can tell you from my own directing experience, when the angle you want doesn't work (because of the carpenters, or whatever) the subsequent angle that you choose is often still part of your 'scheme' - it still needs to convey what you want it to convey. Even if it isn't the filmmaker's first choice, it's still a choice, and still part of an active filmmaking process.
Yes, maybe those camera settings keep you hooked. But maybe, JUST MAYBE it is the dialog and the grate acting of Christoph Waltz. I beliefe the scene would still be powerful with a crappy camera setup.
This scene wasn't storyboard, it was pure editing. An efficient director doing a great coverage of a tense scene, but most of those inflexions were created at the editing room, not in storyboard.
True, but consider that in order to get great coverage shots, a director should storyboard. And while storyboarding, much of the pacing for the scene is determined even before editing. While we can never know for certain that Tarantino did/didn't storyboard this scene, it's helpful for up-and-coming filmmakers to understand the creative process.
@@StudioBinder For sure, to get to this level of scene, you need a great director. My point for the up-and-coming filmmakers here is: all this tought that the analisis show was not made before the scene, it seems overwhelming when you watch those scene breakdown, because people always assume most of this amazing work was done before and that you have to think in a million things before start shooting, where is not always the case. I'm pretty sure most of the symbolism here was not in the script, it was something noticed on location, with the hat and the stairs for example. Also you never know what your actors chemistry will be like and what one brings out in the other. When you watch those scene breakdown videos, you think directing is a genius work, when in reality is a pretty simple work but it have to be done precisely. Sure, be prepared, but also be open to possibilities like Leo's hurting his hand in Django and make sure to get a great editor that will know how to get to the feeling you want. There were a lot of people involved in a great scene, is not the director's job to think of everything before hand, it's his job to notice and to amplify the very best in everyone involved in his film.
@@AndreNGropo You're right, but I think there IS an element of awareness-of-everything that goes into some filmmaking. It's not always conscious. The best directors seem to have internalized the cinematic language, such that they're not necessarily 'dissecting' their scene as they direct it, but they feel their way through, and the result has particular resonance. For myself, as a filmmaker, studying the results of what great filmmakers do has helped me to internalize some of their choices. When I'm on set, with my back against the wall and the clock ticking, I don't have the luxury of thinking through every small choice - but I do hope that some of the artistry I've studied and absorbed from my favorite filmmakers inform the spur-of-the-moment choices that I make. And even in those spur-of-the-moment choices, there's a lot of conscious decision-making involved. A slight adjustment to the camera height. A slight tweak to an actor's blocking. A slight adjustment to the window shade. I might not be able to take the time to explain every decision while I'm shooting - but I'm making those decisions.

But I can tell you from my own directing experience, when the angle you want doesn't work (because of the carpenters, or whatever) the subsequent angle that you choose is often still part of your 'scheme' - it still needs to convey what you want it to convey. Even if it isn't the filmmaker's first choice, it's still a choice, and still part of an active filmmaking process.
Soooo good what a remarkable job you did on describing one of my favorite scenes of all time thank you for this it was a total gift!!!
I think you should have mention when the dad told the girls to go inside as if there in danger, kind of setting up the intensify
Please do a video on the Peaky Blinders!!!
We love that show! Maybe we'll need to cook something up about it in the future...
Yes, maybe those camera settings keep you hooked. But maybe, JUST MAYBE it is the dialog and the grate acting of Christoph Waltz. I beliefe the scene would still be powerful with a crappy camera setup.
This scene wasn't storyboard, it was pure editing. An efficient director doing a great coverage of a tense scene, but most of those inflexions were created at the editing room, not in storyboard.
True, but consider that in order to get great coverage shots, a director should storyboard.
And while storyboarding, much of the pacing for the scene is determined even before editing.
While we can never know for certain that Tarantino did/didn't storyboard this scene, it's helpful for up-and-coming filmmakers to understand the creative process.
@@StudioBinder For sure, to get to this level of scene, you need a great director. My point for the up-and-coming filmmakers here is: all this tought that the analisis show was not made before the scene, it seems overwhelming when you watch those scene breakdown, because people always assume most of this amazing work was done before and that you have to think in a million things before start shooting, where is not always the case. I'm pretty sure most of the symbolism here was not in the script, it was something noticed on location, with the hat and the stairs for example. Also you never know what your actors chemistry will be like and what one brings out in the other.
When you watch those scene breakdown videos, you think directing is a genius work, when in reality is a pretty simple work but it have to be done precisely. Sure, be prepared, but also be open to possibilities like Leo's hurting his hand in Django and make sure to get a great editor that will know how to get to the feeling you want.
There were a lot of people involved in a great scene, is not the director's job to think of everything before hand, it's his job to notice and to amplify the very best in everyone involved in his film.
@@AndreNGropo You're right, but I think there IS an element of awareness-of-everything that goes into some filmmaking. It's not always conscious. The best directors seem to have internalized the cinematic language, such that they're not necessarily 'dissecting' their scene as they direct it, but they feel their way through, and the result has particular resonance.
For myself, as a filmmaker, studying the results of what great filmmakers do has helped me to internalize some of their choices. When I'm on set, with my back against the wall and the clock ticking, I don't have the luxury of thinking through every small choice - but I do hope that some of the artistry I've studied and absorbed from my favorite filmmakers inform the spur-of-the-moment choices that I make.
And even in those spur-of-the-moment choices, there's a lot of conscious decision-making involved. A slight adjustment to the camera height. A slight tweak to an actor's blocking. A slight adjustment to the window shade. I might not be able to take the time to explain every decision while I'm shooting - but I'm making those decisions.
