@Henry Black idk what you're on about, but this scene, and every other scene in this movie, are faithful to the graphic novels to the point of being nearly identical. So I guess if there's any blame to be put on this scene being a "rip off", it would be on Frank Miller, not Quentin. But in the comic book medium, homages are a little more direct and on the nose, especially if it's not to another comic, because it could be looked over and unnoticed, and also just because American comics is not a place for subtlety. So can you really blame anyone?
I don't know why. But I just love the way Benicio Del Toro delivers the line, "Not unless you keep your eyes on the road Sugar Pie." Gets me every time.
My favorite is "Nobody ever really quits. A smoker's a smoker when the chips are down. And your chips are down." Been chewing nicotine gum for several years, but a few time a year I gotta smoke up.
Not only it would have been better, it would have came out earlier. And knowing Tarantino, he would have roped Samuel L Jackson and Uma Thurman into it.
Honestly, they should have had both Josh and Clive. When Dwight finishes his surgery to change his face, Clive shoulda come back for that second part, since that's most likely how he looks after.
@@Roadkill-Films Actually that was the plan in A Dame to Kill For but Owen wasn't available at the time, so we had to stick to that odd makeup on Brolin's face.
@Chimera XDX Actually yeah, I did, as that's usually a reason why certain actors can't return to old character roles as they'll be busy acting in another movie or doing something else in their lives. Also, nice 458 Spyder.
This scene is both disturbing and well-portrayed. It really gives Dwight a conscious and his stress is all explained by his imaginative among the living Jackie Boy and a minor detail at 3:35, the colours that you saw previously shifts back into noir and this probably means Dwight snaps back into reality after that dream.
He's just flicking the Zippo open with his middle finger and then lighting it. It's an easy move and you don't need to smoke to do it yourself. You just need a Zippo.
Watched this movie for the first time last night on mushrooms after years of watching random scenes like this on youtube. Legitimately one of the best movie experiences ive ever had. The colors in this scene combined with the pure emotion i felt was profound. Wish i could go back to last night and do it again.
I knew right away that this was the scene he directed. I could tell mainly because of his trademark in all his film in which there's a scene that features the main character talking to himself. Also how he borrows a lot from other films. The lighting in this scene is very similar to opening scene from an Italian horror film called Suspuria, in which the main character was also in a car on a rainy night with rainbow lighting effects.
This was the first movie I ever saw Benicio Del Toro in and it is still one of my all time favorite performances by him. Jackie Boy maybe a HUGE asshole whose suffers a fate nobody should want but he sure does seem like a fun character to play
Fun fact: This scene marks the only time Tarantino has ever directed a scene with a digital camera ( Tarantino is famously a huge advocate of shooting movies on 35mm film, and every one of his films is shot 100% on film (35mm or 65mm).
Love both. This one was load better for sure. This had some great moments and I thought it was great for it's time, loved it at the cinema walked out thinking how good it was!
Every single scene in this film is pure solid genius...So underrated! It's well deservedly going to find itself as a beloved treasure way ahead of its time and will be a golden cult classic!
no that is most certainly not the fucking reason. hes hallucinating because hes hauling a fucking corpse next with him in his car. hes losing his sanity. you don't need to read the comics to understand that. he the fuck would lace a pack of their smokes with acid???
Ngl when first reading The Big Fat Kill, this scene caught me off guard, freaked out, i was thinking "Jackie-Boy, you son of a bitch! You still kicking?"
I like to think Jackie Boy closes his lighter, then fumbles to close it a second time (listen to the audio) is a reference to Mr. White and his Zippo tricks
uncanny. i saw this *in theatres,* man - all the way back in _Twenty Oh-Five;_ before i knew or _cared_ who Robert Rodriguez was, before that *Grindhouse* baloney; before i was even aware QT had a directing cameo (and frankly after seeing him in his 'django' bit of silliness? that oughtta be the *ONLY* cameo work he does) - obviously *way* before this film became the classic that it became... i still remember sitting in that theatre, and having this scene hit me like a bullet. by a *wide* margin my favorite scene in this (great) flick, del Toro _kills_ it here. there are _way_ too many kickass moments, like the slight chuckle he puts into the word "smoking", the moments where his head reclines, so his chopped vocal chords cause his voice to fail... the eerie magic realism of this scene that _somehow_ stands out in a movie *FULL* of over-the-top moments... it's moviegoing paradise, man. weirdly enough, just the other _day_ i wrote in my journal just arbitrarily "QT is one _helluva_ director." i was thinking on "Jackie Brown" at that moment, but could have been thinking on pretty much every film he's ever made. True words... _TRUE._
In a film that uses color so sparsely and deliberately, the rainbow effect was super jarring and distracting. Having said that, once the cop pulls up, the red and blue lights make perfect sense, and the yellow of the cop's flashlight on Dwight's face looked really, really cool.
“Nobody ever really quits, a smokers a smoker when the chips are down.” I’m not a smoker, but that’s absolutely true. My ex girlfriend was so proud of “quitting” until our relationship started to fall apart and she was back to a pack of Spirits a day in no time at all.
. . what do you mean? I tried to figure it out rewatching this, but idk. .is it in the action where his face falls forward, and the gun lodges through his head with his eyes and mouth wide open? Cuz that style, in a way, does actually remind me of the first death scene in Suspiria.
The first time I did mushrooms my buddy put this movie on then he fell asleep. I had never seen it. I crawled inside his tv and had one of those experiences you’ll never replicate
Del toro needs an award for that creepy deep voice he does in this movie. Insanely good acting.
He got an Oscar for “Traffic.”

Strong Beetlejuice vibes in this scene
I bet Quentin wanted to put red apple cigs so bad

Red Apple Cigs are actually seen in the sequel
@@Shanethefilmmaker Lmao he’s such a nerd, but it’s still cool
How do we know those aren't filtered Red Apples he took from Jackie Boy
Almost as bad as he wanted to see Del Toro's feet.

a tip: watch series at flixzone. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Philip Orlando Definitely, I've been watching on flixzone} for since november myself :D
i dont think he directed it. its just TARANTINO IS IN THE SCENE. this is directed by rodriguez.
@@JackJackKcajify Tarantino isn't in the scene though....and yes he did direct it.
2:35 idk why but I absolutely love how he opens the lighter.
I don't know why. But I just love the way Benicio Del Toro delivers the line,
"Not unless you keep your eyes on the road Sugar Pie."
Gets me every time.
“Watch it!”
"Those hookers let you down heheh" gets me every time.
Quentin Tarintino and Benicio Del Toro create magic. They should do more than a scene together.

Stacks M because everyones the same...sure. Dick.
U can absolutely feel the Tarantino style here, the double entendres, the Raymond chandler style gruffy dialogue
He thinks he's in a shitty situation, that motorbike cop has a night shift going on and its pouring like a monsoon.
Plus a morgage, water heater's busted, four kids and a fifth on the way
Imagine if Tarantino had done "A Dame to Kill for"

"SHUT UP!!!"
This inspired swiss army man. True story.
I kind of knew this was Tarantino's scene. He is always so good with dialogue between characters.
+Jake Mitchell the dialogue comes from the comic, so...
:noMercy I know that, but Tarantino has a way to make whatever the actors are talking about be the most interesting topic ever.
Correct now I want want a Royale with cheese
As long as he gets to do it in his own voice

2:05 - 2:10
this segment plays in my mind every time I'm running late from something
Tarantino worked with the weaker story and turned it into the best segment of this movie.
You're right. This was the weakest storyline and this is the best scene in the film. Well said, sir.
It was still written by Miller.
CouveTJ *I always loved this storyline. Marv's story is the one I thought was weakest even though I liked that one too.*
@@soberchimera61 yeah but the direction is what ends up selling it
I personally loved ALL of Bruce Willis in this movie. I dun care yo' comment is 4 years old!

He's just flicking the Zippo open with his middle finger and then lighting it. It's an easy move and you don't need to smoke to do it yourself. You just need a Zippo.
Smoke weed. It's healthier
I watched this movie in the theater four times and started buying my own cigarettes after the second time.

The LOOK Dwight gives Jacky Boy at 2:03 is PRICELESS!! love that look. Oscar worthy
God Benicio Del Toro is such a great actor. I love him in everything he's ever been in. This scene is so good. Love how he lights that cigarette tool.
"' 's got you ~smoking~ " plays in my head too damn often lmao
that scene makes me wanna say, whenever someone lights a cigarette near me: "it's got you smoking there, bud?"
Clive owen and tarantino should work together!!! This guy fits PERFECT in Tarantino movies
Love how when he leans his head back the air comes out of his nick so its not as loud, but when his head comes back down it's "normal" again
@1:47 what are you gonna do when you run out of gas, call triple A ? ROFL Sicario speaks the truth.
Jackie boy: exists
Dwight: u S h U t T h E h E l L u P.
Should be
Jackie boy: *doesn’t exist*
Dwight: you shut the hell up Jackie Boy.
I love this movie so much. I just watched the sequel and it docent even compare to this.
The sequel was garbage. Never thought a movie with so much violence and nudity could be so uninteresting.
undertow1985 **doesn't*
what's impressive is how del Toro's able to change the pitch of his voice on a dime like that.
This was the first movie I ever saw Benicio Del Toro in and it is still one of my all time favorite performances by him.
Jackie Boy maybe a HUGE asshole whose suffers a fate nobody should want but he sure does seem like a fun character to play
It's sad that he died so quickly.

That is a shame but it didn't stop the bastard from talking and having one of the best scenes in the entire movie ;)

This movie is so fire I hope they make a 3rd one. A Dame to Kill For was not as bad as everyone made it seem. Not as rememberable as the 1st one tho.
HUSTLER1346 I agree still a good movie direct from the source material mostly just the first used the best stories from the graphic novels.

It's not "underrated" just because you enjoyed it.
That word is overused and usually inaccurately, as in this case.
Hell of an anti-smoking PSA
These two’d nail the role of Batman and Joker
My Favorite Scene in the Movie. It's done so well.
1:51 that laugh
InitialDNA that's shorty from scary movie leaking thru
One of, if not the best, scenes in the entire movie.
ct000374910 I dunno...Marv had some great scenes!
Marv's was the best story, but this was the best scene in my opinion.
Mainly because he’s the only guy that lives
Uff, yes. But Marv's and Hartigan's Story are so overwhelmingly strong, too...
"I'm pregnant," 2:31-2:56
Lmfao great comment
I totally didn't even get it the first time, he's smoking Jacks smokes, Jack probably laced his own cigarettes with something crazy.

So many memorable characters.. I have never seen a movie where so many characters are competing for the spotlight
It's got you smoking ere Bud!!
"Not unless you keep your eyes on the road sugar pie"

This Tarantino has got the chops...I'd give him a chance.
The laugh!!!
That cop knew what was going on. But he also knows this is Sin City. Best to leave it alone.
Benicio Del Toro would make an awesome Joker
Michael Wong WTF y'all keep trying to turn everyone into the Joker???
Travis NEWgod Because every teenager thinks that Joker is the only psychopath ever written.
I like to think Jackie Boy closes his lighter, then fumbles to close it a second time (listen to the audio) is a reference to Mr. White and his Zippo tricks
I love how this is the only scene in the movie where a character narrates out load to the camera.
One of the best ones by far this is the best movie by far one and two
idk if its his signature but the way benicio lights that cigarette is very reminiscent of the way michael madsen lights his in his films
Honestly the best scene in the movie
Dwight McCarthy, my favorite sin city character!
I was just watching the movie recently and thought that this scene is too Tarantino-isc.
I never knew until now that it was he who directed this scene
Quentin Tarantino, Frank Miller, & Robert Rodriguez, my top favorite Directors! The Trifecta
Jackie Boy really was a Pez despenser.
Clive Owen sounds like David Schwimmer when he speaks

Are these voices driving anyone else fking mad or just me?
Has Quintin ever done a film noir other than this one scene?

Death proof and planet terror
None of those films are noir.

Benicio Del Toro look's like a tank
Sin city is top 20 material
why did i saw instantly that this scene is something special ?
Michael Madsen's character got that promotion he always wanted.
Theres a behind the scenes video of Quentin directing this scene and Rodriguez says" Tarantino put his stamp all over this scene" but i dont see it
