Kirsten Dunst's Movie Civil War Shows How Delicate the U.S.' Democracy Really Is - Late Night with Seth Meyers
• Kirsten Dunst's Movie ...
Late Night with Seth Meyers
/ latenightseth
Seth really should have the 11:30 time slot. His show is so much better than Fallon's in every way.
No kidding. Same goes for the whole Conan/Leno debacle.
But here's the thing.....people like Fallon and Leno will _always_ do better, ratings wise, than people like Conan and Seth. Because they know how to pander....to the lowest common denominator. Most Americans prefer people like Fallon and Leno because most Americans are.....mildly dim. Not even trying to be mean or anything. That's just the reality of the situation.
But I think Seth is doing brilliantly where he is now. Besides, who even watches TV anymore?? I haven't had cable for over a decade. Literally none of my friends do either. We ALL watch Seth and similar shows....online. Time slots mean nothing anymore. And I think that's just fine.
Here HERE! I agree wholeheartedly with this x!
Kristen Dunst is such a terrific actress. I’m glad she’s in a movie she loves. I love Seth Meyers as an interviewer. He just lets the guest talk, and doesn’t insert himself into every moment.
Unlike Fallon...
Sometimes. Depends on his guests. And definitely agree about the remark about Fallon.
The other Jimmy is getting better. It all depends if the host has a lot of respect for the guest or not. Imho
Seth and Drew are my fav right now!!! Kelly is getting better and Jimmy annoys me.
@Alreadyforgiven77777 🤣 yes, nice person I'm sure. But seems needy.
I saw this movie yesterday and she is not kidding. I felt like I walked out of a Warzone. Every bullet passes by you and it is incredibly loud and realistic and completely captivates you. I absolutely love the movie. I think it’s a very important message for people to see how ugly war is and what would happen if people got this Civil War that 5% of America is talking about.
I watched Civil War last night it was such an intense and emotional viewing but I feel like everyone should watch because it was so great! The cast is incredible and Seth is so right you can't take your eyes off the screen. The director did a great job and if you can see it in the theatre please do!
Seth Meyers is now the best late night talk show host...
Agreed. But....only just now?
imo he got that torch some time in 2020. Ever since then....he's the only one that matters tbh. ALL my friends love Seth. We never talk about the other late night shows. I love how far this show has come. I remember when it first started, when Seth took over this show. It was.....fine. Passable. It got the job done.
But now? It's gonna go down in history as one of the greatest late night shows ever....along with Conan O'Brien and Craig Ferguson.
@@avedic Now means at present. I didn't mean he got it just the last few days. Craig Ferguson, to me, was the best to ever do it, with Conan a close second. I am sure most people will find Conan better than Craig, but I love how unhinged Craig is.
Wow, that was a kind of terrifying interview. The most somber I have seen from Meyer in a very long time. I can't wait to see it.
Exactly my feeling. A very serious interview about what seems to be a very serious movie.
We Love Kirsten Dunst, & Seth Meyers!! 💜💜
I have always loved Kirsten I remember her being an up and coming actress when I was younger then she disappeared for awhile..it’s so nice to see her coming back!
We love kirsten dunst and seth meyers
With Kirsten starred in multiple Sofia Coppola movie aswell as Cailee Spaeny was in Priscilla, a Sofia Coppola movie too, i really hope someday Coppola could find away to put Kirsten and Cailee together in a movie 🤗
To think, the rose colored glasses man to send home the message.... WAS HER HUSBAND..... WOW I love this movie.... And I've been a fan of hers since spider man...
I braved through Jorge Lendeborg Junior's film, American Carnage. I can brave through Civil War because both plots are intriguing, and they both tell a cautionary tale on scary thing we do not want to happen in real life when the bad gals and the bad guys of the story go too far.
Very excited to see this movie.
And I’m not expecting an action or thriller movie.
I’m expecting a drama, with moments of violence & intensity.
With a focus on the role journalism plays.
Jesse Plemons is her husband........ I would give anything to hear the politics in that house 😂😂😂
A woman who watches her & the team's work, and she's proud! HELL YEAH!
This movie sounds just way too scary and real for me, I don't want to see it to be honest.
Yeah I can't say it's something I would find entertaining. It's kind of sickening tbh.
All the more reason to go see it. Being scared with this type of film helps educate the general public about the horrors of war. I think the director, Alex Garland, made it to be an informative type film. We can take a step back and realize how fortunate we are here in America…Mr. Garland does a pretty good interview with Jordan Klepper about this movie.
If you like the phycological aspect of war and how it changes people, you should see it. It's not just a horror movie, it's trying to tell us that when we stop caring about each other, everyone loses. But yes, it feels very real and it is purposefully a shocking film.
The imminence of civil war makes this painful. There are people in this country who are obsessively focused on overthrowing our government.
Jst wait until the end of the year and you'll see it for real.
She looks great. I love this shade of blonde on her with the subtle highlights.
I loved this film so much, I mean it was horrible, but I loved the message and how real it felt. Kirsten Dunst is the perfect casting as Lee.
Didn't know anything about the movie but now I'm super down to see it.
will forever be my fav MJ
Exactly forever be MJ
Saw the movie last night - it is pretty decent! Took a while to get into it for me (lame brain)... and the ending was just... Uhg. Left me disturbed and wanting more or an alternative.
♡
it was a good movie def not a waste of money but not great. feels kinda short but the sound design and acting was top notch
I loved this film
The ads are longer than the show. WTF!
Chris Hedges for all time war correspondent ✌🏽
Please don't let this happen just because you want to cosplay as a hero, while actually being a monster.
These 2 videos should only be 1 Longer video! Or at least label them part 1 and part 2.
I know Kristen is correct telling us to see this in a theater, but I don't have the courage to be in a public venue watching this. Having seen the trailers, listened to the director and actors explain how real this is, I don't think I'd be able to hold it together. Best to watch this in privacy where I can scream and cry without disturbing others.
So go at 11am when no one is in the theatre. Don't be silly. Don't miss this.
@@bobiq You know, I'm taking this into consideration. There's got to be an off hour at the local theater. Thanks for the suggestion.
The wall is undefeated....
I just adore her ....maybe next life .😇🙄
dearly love her and that fantastic husband of hers
Seth seems very somber in this interview. It’s entertainment but feels so horrifying true
I think its not as vague as people say. The president is on his third term and he disbanded the FBI/CIA.
there is no story, only things that are forced on us to know. If it were a good movie we would see for ourselves what and why its happening.
This is something that seems very reao in the near future and I mean a few years.
Exactly what Trump says he will do when if he wins in November. It is hard for me to come to grips with the idea there are more like him who want to break their Oath to Protect and defend the Constitution. 😢😳😔
@@SnowflakeHenri1 scary isn't it?
Some fictions are less speculative than others.
Terrifying- I personally can’t watch it because it just seems too possible
It’s so sobering.
Please, bring Wagner Moura to talk about the movie, besides being a great actor and very charismatic, he is a real journalist
Kristen looks beautiful. ❤
I’m such a huge fan of Kirsten!! And she looks SOOOO much like my ex girlfriend. It’s crazy. Great actress!!!
Kirsten raised me
Bad parents?
The way her??
I haven't seen the movie, but i think only if the hero or protagonist dies could i imagine the movie being a warning to civil war.
If the person you care for dies, then people will move into action. Maybe in this case to stop a war. Imho😢
Ps. Movies like that aren't made anymore. Only in anime. To me, grownup cartoons.
Seth you are gonna break my neck all your fidgeting. Lol. Love ya bro
It’s not just me then right? Lol you OK there Seth? 😂
The loudness of the gunshots was really punchy and very hard hitting, made me feel quite jumpy all the way.
She sells this well.
Watched it twice at the theater. Great film which should frighten us all, given how divided our country is. The movie doesn’t state how the civil war got started, but it’s clear that elections, rather than uniting the country behind a new leader, are violently dividing us.
Self Prophecy aka the Pygmalion effect - we never learn 😕
Clicked the wrong video first again.
Seth looked so nervous interviewing Kirsten❣️… very fidgety.

@@Axolotl_Mischief, Troll!! Grow up!!
Is it that good? If so, I might have to go to the movie theater for the first time in years.
You need to see @@publicuser2534
@@Axolotl_Mischief, That's cause you don't know good movies. 🙄🙄
A lot of child actors but there’s only a few who actually are good. She is good
California and Texas teaming up is the most fictional event in the movie 😂😂😂
The movie wasn't really thought out. But it's a cute idea.
It’s not about political ideology
@@SanskarWagley Then it's not a civil war.
Civil War is any more where people are fighting each other within a country or autonomous region. The reason for the war is not important. Also this movie takes place 20 years in the future I don't know why people have so hard of time believing that the culture of different states changes over time. 20 years ago Florida was a purple state. Now it's not
California includes a lot of right wing people.
"not" picking a side is not possible in a situation like this. You either pick a side out of commission, or omission.
The film makes a point of saying that picking a side does not mean you're safe. When you're at war in another country, you're the good guys and they're the bad guys, but in a civil war anyone can pick their own side. It's like the Wild West.
And the focus is int the journalist work, which is not there to pick sides or to fight for anyone, their job is just document what is going on.
And I also liked the fact that the movie doesn't wasted much time trying to explain how the war started and why, it is just going on.
This could happen very soon.
Ppl butt hurt over Cali and Texas teaming up are brain rotted
I got the wrong impression from the random ads I saw; I came under the impression this was some stupid neo-nazi troll film like that weird one of men pretending to pretend to be women pretending to play basketball?
So I gotta check this out!
Let's be real. Most younger Americans and even ones my age in their 60s forgot or don't remember war being in their back yard.
The twin towers is the closest, but the world wasn't in a war.
Pearl harbor is the one I remember. Practice drills going to bomb shelters or hiding under a desk as bomb sirens went off.
I have acquaintance that want civil war and the people who want out of Nato don't remember why we Americans want Nato.
This movie I think will only make it more believable that it can happen, but it won't warn people for it not to happen.
Look at global warming, or AI movies. It hasn't stopped things from moving forward.
We're humans and humans in the long run, don't learn from it's mistakes, as a race.
Individuals learn, but greed wins out and humanity as a whole seems to always plunge into its own sh*t head first.
Time will only see if my comment is correct or bs. ✌️
what I don't get is the different factions listed, like why is there an alliance between Texas and California, the cultures are fundamentally different, and why Oregon and Washington are allied with Utah, lol, this doesn't make sense if you know cultural history, it would be Idaho, Utah, maybe Nevada, and definitely Arizona allied together
Once the balloon goes up, there is no predicting how alliances will form and shift. California Texas Nevada Utah and Colorado in the event of Civil War will be fighting to secure water, first and foremost. Figure out how that will work
Texas has a large democratic, and independent voter base. All the big cities trend to the left because of all the colleges. California has a large conservative/republican population. There is a lot of money to be made in that state, which means folks who want their taxes lower.
It's not really suppose to make sense. The film is about people, not about the war itself. Civil War is telling a story about how badly things can get when people stop caring about each other. There are no winners at the end of the film, so the "teams" doesn't matter.
"The scene is an America whose evident but unspecified divisions have exploded into open fratricidal warfare. The states of Texas and California are now ruled by the rebellious secessionists, the Western Forces, or WF, making massive advances on Washington DC, a situation about which the president (Nick Offerman) is in denial, making delusional TV addresses about how well he’s doing."
- Guardian
The movie doesn't try to explain how things got where they were, so we shoulnd't either. that is not the main focus of the story. And I thought that was the right decision. Explaining too much would make many people in the audience take sides, and that is not what the director wanted. they wanted to focus on the human story.
Time is not kind with some people
I know right? Seth has lost all credibility since he stopped wearing a suit. 😂
not the case with Kirsten. she is stunning
I like the film. It definitely hindered itself believability that California and Texas would team up. We all know that was to depoliticise it but it simply doesn’t work if the film is even remotely a reflection of our world.
I really don’t understand why this is such a hang up for people (California-Texas). You can’t claim to know what a civil war would look like in the US.
@@cggg490 I can’t no. But California and Texas would not be on the same side.
As two states go they are about as ideologically opposed as they get. If there was a civil war they certainly would be on opposite sides. It just demands a lot less of a mental leap.
@@m.c4210 you never know. depending what is on stake they could team up. UK+US+USSR teamed up in WW2 knowing that they would have to deal with each other later, but they had a more important work to do first.
Love Kirsten Dunst. 🥰 But the movie looks kinda dumb, not Troll 2 dumb but more Sound of Freedom dumb. Still love her!
If you want to compare it to other film, I would say it's a mixture between Black Hawk Down (2001) and The Road (2009).
@@ThisIsMyFullNameThat sounds cool. Thanks for the heads up! 👍

Is it just me? Or is that girl look young enough to be in high school?
She is beautiful!!
She used tl be younger... it's happening to all my favorite stars. Troubling
While I agree that US democracy is fragile and a second civil war is not impossible, the factions in this film make no sense. California and Texas on the same side? Washington state and big Sky country forming a leftist faction? I don’t think the writers of this movie know much about US politics. If you want a really good Second US Civil War that isn’t something like “Somehow the Confederacy Returned” I highly recommend the Hearts of Iron 4 mod Kaiserreich.
I think it was intentional to have California and Texas team up, specifically so the movie would avoid real-world political specifics
@@seventhsteel1415 Why would you make a civil war movie set in modern America without real world politics? That’s what baffles me about this whole project. Without real world politics in such a setting all you really have are two or more faceless factions fighting each other. I just think it’s a missed opportunity is all.
Are you sure this isnt just a lunge for attention?
For who? Use your words.
It's a movie. It doesn't show anything about how 'delicate the US's democracy really is'.
I am not loving Civil War movie, trailers were clickbait, movie is a mess, we never saw why it started, never saw way rebels were the good guys, there was no war but for the last 15 minutes. There were few good things in it but overall movie is a fail.
lol okay captain movie pants mc.movie guy
Just like I told the other troll. Wrong!! This movie has received countless AWESOME reviews, Seth being one of MANY!! Your troll, negative, WRONG opinion isn't needed!! Grow up!! This movie is going to be AMAZING to watch just from the Previews I've seen!! 🗣 💯
Sorry but you totally missed the point. This movie wasn't about big fights and explosions.
Just saw it on IMAX. PIECE of crap. Boring as hell, and the sound was a total assault on your eardrums. I literally had my fingers in my ears on and off for at least 20 minutes. Plot, what little there is, is all about “photo journalists” we care nothing about. Thought about walking out of the theater multiple times. Looked at my watch about 3 times, wishing it was over.
When its from A24, you know it
Get a life.
As a huge movie buff who has seen everything from 1915's Alice in Wonderland to Godzilla Minus One I can't say I'm too interested in a modern day civil war film. Forgive me if it doesn't seem remotely entertaining at the moment, and comes off more as a needlessly sick, opportunistic cash grab...just like all those 9/11 movies that came out two years after that tragedy. It's repugnant.
Godzilla Minus One was absolutely awesome. Wished they had more city flattening scenes.
This movie is a joke. No, there is no realism to it. No, the movie doesn't even touch any reality of the current political landscape in America. It's just a trite story about the challenges of being a photojournalist.
Not a great movie. Several disturbing scenes. But not realistic. This cou 2:17 ntry would be invaded and/or nuked long before the fictional point where this movie ended.
Totally just sounds like another dailywire dumpster flick
The movie sucked & was super boring! Wow she aged super bad too lol.
You’re gross.
@xSMOKExEMxALLx Aww do you prefer teenage girls to full-grown women? Kirsten is gorgeous. Grow tf up. 🙄
