The White Lotus: Rachel Meets Olivia and Paula By the Pool (Season 1 Clip) | HBO 
Развлечения
The awkwardness of this scene is brilliant. In general, the vibe between mean teenagers and well meaning adults trying to be friendly is always weird and painful, but having the teenagers be wealthy and privileged and the adult be a trophy wife kicks it up a notch further into a scene that is one of the most memorable from the entire series, in my opinion.
YEAH! Because the wealthy kids act as if they were not handed everything. The irony of this scene is Rachel does not want to be a trophy wife, and tries to fight that destiny. While Olivia and Paula claim they care about social injustice, but does nothing. Well, Paula did something but we saw how that turned out.
I’m a full grown adult, and I would purposely take a longer route if it meant avoiding teenagers like them. I know they would bully me 💀
This show is great at displaying awkwardness in conversation because it often highlights the power dynamic at play. It’s incredible how little of genuine conversation is needed to realize who triumphs over who. Like in this scene it became clear less than 30 seconds in the that two teenage girls, Olivia and Paula, dominated over Rachel and had no remorse about it.
Great acting. Great writing. Great series. Excited for season 3
Well in the end, she is trying to chat up to them to get an interview with the mom
@@alyssapinon9670 So bully them first.
Love how all these comments prove this scene right and many focus on Daddario's appearance. The teenage girls pick apart Daddario's character and leave her feeling humiliated for choosing the destiny of a "trophy wife", but once she disrobes and shows her body, their jaw falls to the floor because in this society, if you are a hot girl = you win. They like to take the moral high ground and pretend like they're better for being conscious of social justice, but can't help but feel envious / jealous of Daddario's looks and devolve to objectifying a woman themselves. Her character was weighing the pros and cons of continuing her job as a freelance journalist, so that she can feel like she has more to offer than her looks, and in the end she chose to go with being the trophy wife. Because why wouldn't you in this society that places more importance on materialism and superficiality?
I love how people are saying that the scene loses weight when she flaunts her body in front of them at the end, but I think it was her best way of pushing back against these two. Sort of like a way of saying, ‘you look down on me for being this way, but neither of you could do it yourselves.’
Bla bla bla
@@NekomGiorgio Found the simp.
@@veejonesify agreed!! They know deep down they wish they were in her position of being a trophy wife with a great body
@@veejonesify I'm pretty sure both of them could pull it off. imo they're both prettier than rachel's actress tbh
this is so masterfully written lol, these girls were basically interrogating her throughout the entire conversation. It was almost like a display of dominance from both sides.
Rachel was just being nice and friendly with the conversation, but maybe after when she realized they weren't doing the same, her disrobing and showing off her ("skinny" as girls would describe it and envy) body was a conscious dominance move.
Especially when the first episode started (and the first time we see them) they’re gossiping / making up their own dramatic stories for the people on the boat. All the questions they asked were along the line of statements made on the boat. Cool mirror I noticed. I really love this show
It truly was, it's like the Regina George meets Kady scene...
Only this time it's an adult, a successful one, talking to teenagers and just trying to be nice 😂
Sydney's reaction and non-reaction are genius!!! The fake smile and the implied condescension... she is just such a good actress! She nailed the performance.
I agree. Throughout the whole series, she really shined...
(In contrast, I though O'Grady just wasn't up to it--especially since her character drove the main action.)
@@droiddevx03 👀
It’s basically being herself.
She plays the same character in every project of hers. You would hand out the Oscars to every actress you watch.
Easily my favorite character in the entire show.
Olivia and Paula's actors perfectly encapsulate two teenage girls who are clearly miserable with their lives and look down on others to boost their own ego.
And being typical obnoxious SJWs
@@raraszek typical for this generation, thinking they're so much smarter and morally just than anyone else while being completely oblivious to their own hypocrisy.
That's human in general for you, not just teenagers.
Reading nihilistic philosophy pool side is a sign…
Actually, they are based on Anna and Dasha, hosts of the Red Scare podcast.
Alex’s character was the most down to earth, relatable in the series.
I loved Jennifer Coolidge
Performance she was hilarious 😆
Also Belinda.
@@mariuxxxx1 yess but she made Belinda dirty
I mean tonya was lowkey pretty nice and normal for a rich white woman she was nice to everyone I mean I would take her cash just saying
@@kkandsims4612 she was not nice, she manipulated Belinda just for her own well-being and then she threw her away
I was so glad when Rachel undressed and the smirks were wiped off Paula and Olivia’s faces. They were so mean to her when she was just trying to be friendly.
Isn’t there a subtext that Rachel knew all along who the mother was, that she was being disingenuous with her ‘innocent’ questioning, a slightly thirst hungry grasping characterised here as being native to the working classes, while the upper class daughter sees it coming a mile away and bats her away with condescension in a way only an elite can. I think generally with the white lotus there are no goodies and baddies. Everyone is layered.
They aren't real people
@@Cryptech1010 but I suppose cats are ?
@@Cryptech1010 I think everybody commenting already knows that… which is why they are talking about the fictional characters because it is a fictional tv show that people respond to with their own personal opinions and discourse.
@@Cryptech1010 why are you nasty for no reason 🤷🏽♀️
Sydney can perform like an annoying teenager. She does it so well! You even get somehow annoyed 😅😂😂
Yyyyup okay.
i downright hated both teens.
That is who she is 😂😂
Alexandra is incredibly beautiful but those eyes are absolutely mesmerizing..
She's perfect on outside ❤
Improper use of "but"
Also, this scene is so sad in the context of the show. The girls are basically telling her that she's a trophy wife for a rich guy, and her only response is basically to say, "Look how hot I am." And then, a couple of episodes later when Shane's mother basically tells her that the only thing that she brings to the marriage is that she's hot, I'm sure this sequence jumps back in her and you can see her thinking, "Is that really all I bring to this marriage?" And her ending is the saddest thing I've seen in a long time -- just deciding to accept it and be miserable, like it's her fate and there's nothing she can do about it...
Why hasn’t anyone responded to your comment yet? Your observation of this character makes me so curious to see the show now. Plus, I’m very interested to see how everyone else responds to this outlook of your response as well.
@@ijohnathonwhite8002 its true. It made me wonder too. Watch the show it's very deep but also a funny comedy. Makes you think.
Yessss at the end I was like wait nooooo! But I honestly think she made that decision because she unfortunately never got that one on one talk that she needed to have and I think that’s what made her decision in the end
@@TheOmerCookie Thank man, I think I’ll check it out.
@@k.w2859 wait so that whole monolgue about leaving him,, figuring out her life was for nothing?
Notice how those two just clam up as soon as Rachel hits them with the bikini?
Good to see that Rachel is aware that she's the type of girl who turns heads.
Funny because people who hate on others are usually the ones who are insecure or jealous
Because they actually hate themselves and are projecting it onto others.
Yall really got messed by this scene i can tell
I don't think you were supposed to come out of this thinking they're jealous or insecure. They were basically making fun of her for being a trophy wife but once they saw her body they respected her for that, the most stereotypical trophy wife attribute.
It's more about showing their hypocrisy of trying to come off intellectual but still being status quo rich girls which is a theme for them in the show.
@@rvsone1629 subconsciously they’re tho, they are jealous of her physical beauty and the last scene was a manifestation of that
It's a masterpiece, like how they showcased human behavior and all the aspects...it's so realistic, and this scene especially is an epitome I'd say.. 😂
That's the most un comfortable conversation ever
Exactly
Awkward things happen every day
That wasn't a conversation. It was an interrogation lol
Wouldn't even make my top 10
That was a "nails on the chalkboard" conversation!
I have always found it very funny that feeling of false superiority that younger people get when they see someone who according to their perspective is not successful enough and believe that when they are older they will be much more successful than those "failed adults", when the sad reality is that they will surely end up the same or worse…
Exactly!!
True!
Hello men of culture, Alexandra in the thumbnail brought us all here. HBO knows exactly what they're doing, I'm sure we've all seen her scene in True Detective also.
😂😂😂 this is true
She has beautiful eyes
You sir are a gentleman of exquisite truths and taste.
My fixation of her is like an infinite full course meal that will never EVER go away!!!
@@ironfist458 like all women wait till gravity and wrinkles hit. You'll be over it.
Sydney Sweeney is such an underrated actress. Olivia is hilarious in a sarcastic, smart and evil way.
whats underrated about playing yourself? lol shes not some amazing actress lol relax
💞
Hahaha So you know her personally to say that's how she really is? For me her performance is amazing. It's called an opinion. If you don't think so, I respect yours. Relax yourself 😉
She will always be Cassie to me, but I liked her in this also.
@@tB-zq2db Her character in Handmaid's Tale was nothing like this
I an honestly shocked at how accurate this show gets the facial expressions and behaviours. Mark white gas so much comprehension of people in general
LITERALLY! I aspire to be like him as a playwright. He really nails the gestures and expressions of the characters
mike
At 3:17 she looks at the girls for a split second. She knew exactly what their reaction was going to be.
This conversation emphasizes Rachel's trophy wife qualities. They talk down to her, making her feel like a loser, but then are in awe of her body.
Poor Rachel, she deserved better.
i would treat her with respect
Haha she chose to be married to him - even at the end. I feel bad for her but more for her own weakness.
@quayyyyyy It could be just temporary to bide her time into figuring out when is best to leave.
@quayyyyyy shes going to start using him as a safety net until she figures out her career situation. Once she does, she’s out.
@@b4Sed1593 wait what?? Didnt she want to divorce?? And even told the guy??? I gotta rewatch it again
What a weird conversation.
Felt very normal because of it.
@@VexylObby …for Americans, maybe.
@@VexylObby nope.
@@AmedeeBoulette nope.
It’s weird because it’s so stilted on the adult’s end and very probing on the girls’ end.
the soundtrack makes about 50% of the greatness of this show
A simply brilliant scene on so many levels. I was hooked.
This show was so mesmerizing in every aspect. I can't wait for season 2.
can't wait too
is there nudity?
@@tahlon8200 Yes.
@@victorgomez4107 on my way to watch it 🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️
@@tahlon8200 🤣🤣🤣 bruh
The funniest part about this clip is seeing Olivia's facial expression change at 3:28.
Alexandra is a gift to mankind.
Yeah
She’s a gift to Earth.
@Vincent H. If you know, you know...
@Vincent H. Man of culture, we meet again.
She's ok
This show is brilliant and the soundtrack is an instant ear worm, I love it!
Ear worm.🙄🙄
Yeah, ear worm ? 😳
I feel like alexandria’s character is v realistic
true
I love moments like this when the mean girls become haters for no reason until you give a reason to hate lol.
Alex could play the mos hateful character and i'll stil be in love with her and her character.
Mira una película de ella se llama We Summon the Darkness esta cool y prueba eso que dices más o menos
@MortalGamerDC1 85 DEFINITELY
The sexiest thing is a woman who doesn’t wear their attractiveness as a personality trait. Cuz it’s not.
She hit them with the power move in the end!
I had a very productive evening planned after work today. Then I saw this clip, specifically the thumbnail, on my recommendation and now I have finished the whole 6 part hour long per episode series. Ya got me, HBO marketing department.
oh god this is too real, i just hate talking to teenagers who side glances me
@@christopher_martin this comment is pathetic and cringe
Don't talk to them, I wouldn't. They've little to no life experience and are mostly useless to adults until they grow up mentally.
Teenagers are psychopaths and have underdeveloped brain, weren't you a teenager? Why talk to them at all :)
geez u guys, dont think all teens are like this lol. im 17 and im certainly not like that
They're 20 lol sophomores in college.
What a masterpiece scene.
God, I loved this whole show!! The casting choices, acting and directing were everything!! And the ending of course! Can't wait for the 2nd season!
I don’t believe there will be a season 2
There is gonna be a season 2 but with whole different cast
@@Pupeyes They're making this an anthology show. Season 2 confirmed to focus on a different story with different set of characters.
@@Santhosh_PSK, I actually looked it up right after I made the comment. I started second-guessing myself as soon as I posted it and I saw that the new season will be with a different hotel and a different cast which is the only way this will make sense as a second season. After the finale I am honestly not interested in what happens to Rachael ever again so yeah, new characters would be great.
And the second season was even better.
When Rachel unleashed that swimsuit, Olivia and Paula were like 👀👀👀👀
haha i know right? that was funny
Both olivia and Paula can unleash the same stunner if they wanted too
@@geovannomozes7010 Definitely.
@@geovannomozes7010 please i don't even see rachel's appeal. she just looks like an average woman, but slightly prettier
@@geovannomozes7010 then why’d they act like that? She literally mutters “oh s**t.”
I’ve been crushing on her since It’s Always Sunny “Dangerous Liaisons” episode. Such a doll…
You gotta watch true detective s1
GOSH HOW MUCH I LOVED THIS SERIES
The show ends and leaves you feeling like, “that’s it?”
Disagree. It was perfect.
Exactly
Well it will have a season 2
That’s the point. They don’t change - it’s vacation. These rich people have all of this anxiety and tension in their lives; but when they leave, they *do not* change at all. That’s the point
Why Rachel why me at the end
Really enjoyed the first season, great work 👌
This was such a weird show but I loved it 🤣
Best show ending ever! Loved this limited series.
amazing scene. contrasting values with unspoken undertones done at its finest.
They keep asking her questions 😭😭
A job interview at the pool just great
Both seasons of White Lotus are easily the best television to come out in recent years. Hope the third season in the Maldives comes out.
BOTH girls are terrible. Paula does not get a pass just because she may come from a different background. She’s happy to join in.
Pretty sure she was a rich girl too?
Nobody said she wasn’t?
Yes, they are horrible, but kind of entertaining
It was never sunny. Always that weird yellow cast on everything.
that’s what i noticed
are they filming this scene in mexico?
It’s the filter. Movies/shows tend to go for yellow tint when the setting is overseas, exotic, or somewhere perceived as “unsafe”.
In movies where it rains a lot, directors go for a blue filter like in Twilight, The Ring, and The Matrix.
Mike White you are a genius. I have no idea how you will conjure season 2 but I'm sure it will be sensational
AND IT WAS
One of the top 5 scenes of S1.
idk why they gave that reaction after she took her bathing suit off like BRO ARE YOU NOT SEEING HER FACE???
Also, this scene is just so sad. I hate girls like these. More like bullies
Alexandria is gorgeous, her eyes are stunning
Her eyes. .just mesmerizing... she's simply and absolutely gorgeous...( She was trying to be friendly with those nose up in the air... conceited girls...who were just going out of the way to be mean..).. and in the end poetic justice prevailed...the two of them came crashing down to earth... without a word from A.D. ...wow...
Did they get insecure of her when she took off her clothes?
Alex and Sydney should have had more interactions.
Rainier Wolfcastle Voice: In bed
There’s always trash by the pool. Don’t talk to it, this is why.
Such a good show
Oh my god Alexandra’s eyes 😭😭😭 JESUS this world is lucky to have her
I’m pretty sure she wears contacts - this kind of Blue doesn’t look natural
@@megem616 those are her eyes
@@megem616person discovers not everyone’s eyes are the same
Nice Clip!!!
The girls are so judgey
They’re sophomores.
Great series, great ending, though I feel so bad for my boy Armond. Can't wait to see where White takes us for season two!
I felt bad for Kai more the Armond
armond was annoying am i the only ones who didn’t really care
@RainbowDreams30 new season new guests I think
@RainbowDreams30 Yes, it's going to be at a completely different White Lotus resort with all new guests.
@RainbowDreams30 It is going to be like “True Detective”, same title, different actors, places, etc.
Alexandra is too perfect. THE WINNER= CLEARLY ANDREW FORM HER HUSBAND
That´s actually Sidney Sweeney's real glasses! She showed them in a video where she names 10 things she can't live without. No wonder it's so good on her!
Alexandra Daddario is perfection
those eyes!!!! those eyes!!!! those blue eyes!!!!
I think Daddario will always be my biggest crush.
Her body/looks are her power. Rachel fights this for most of the season with her typically modest outfit choices that downplay her body and desire to have a fulfilling job and not just be the trophy wife. She has virtuous aspirations and is outwardly kind and friendly, but just gets repeatedly kicked around for it (by these mean girls, and later their mother who criticizes her writing/journalism). This is the one moment where she understands the power of her beauty and uses it to push back - like a silent weapon.
I don't know modest outfit choices. She actually shows some insane cleavage throughout.
Good one.
A really good one.
The cans per capita in this scene is overwhelming
Absolute perfection 🥵🔥🔥
Alex is just a Goddess.
Good show...hope they do another season with different people
They did
Alexandria is really a Goddess look at her eyes 👀
Everybody gangsta until sydney sweeney keeps the book aside and removes her glass
Alexandra daddrio is just soo beautiful her journey from percy jakson to this uhh i love her 😍
sydney sweeney is so good at playing bullies that i wonder if she was ever one in her highschool days
or she is acting, because she is hired as an actress for a role written by someone else.
@user-ei8mx2pq1oshe’s not from the south and I think she grew up poor where’d u get that
@@janedolores79 no, she did not grow up poor lol
@@hez859 how do you know
@@janedolores79 interviews, simple Google search etc.
I think her dad is like a doctor or something and her mom is a lawyer. She also went to a private school apparently so yeah, most likely didn't grow up poor.
I love how the girls are just reading. It's a fresh take on teenagers who are always depicted as being self-centered and always on their phones, not caring about school or anything else Like teens like to read too!
(Spoilers)
Later in the show it's revealed that they're not reading at all, rather every day they're just picking some random books for optics.
Well i read books on my phone xD
That's what I do most days now
@@Randozza not really lol they were just messing around with thay guy and everyone that thinks bc they are girls they can't read freud or something
@@Randozza they were being cynical and jokinf when they said that. They are actually reading. they discuss a lot of sophisticated sociological topics & are in their 2nd year at Bard. of course they read.
@@tatyanac3823 They don’t discuss anything that is sociologically sophisticated.
Love Alexandra ❤️
Daddario's eyes are out of this world.
She’s got acting shops yes 🙌🏽 Alexandra is my casting wish as Rogue from X-men 🔥
Southern accent? 🤔
Can't see her pulling that character off, voice alone.
The entire case was great, but Sydney Sweeney and Brittany O'Grady were the MVPs.
Forget about watching the whole scene, who skipped to the real venture 😂😂
Alexandra Daddario's character is like: ok, I'm not from a wealthy family and have no ivy league degree -- but I have this BODY!!!
She’s SMOKING
Alexandra Daddario ❤️
Usually its this yellow when its Mexico or Middle east
I got so wrapped up in season 2 I forgot how epic season 1 is.
have you watched "shrinking" too ?
Drumming And Nick Hewer 🤣
Yes, i am here for the thumbnail.
I go to a university and there are several groups of them on campus where they spend their whole day like this, picking people apart like insects for fun ........ Just toxic human effluent 🤔😐
When your body resembles this gems.
Confusing galore
Easily my favorite scene in The White Lotus!
Nice power move by Rachel, she was nothing but friendly to them and got only snark. By stripping off she told them "you may be a bully but I'm still hotter than you".
Okay already I’ll check it out!
I'm not ashamed I clicked it because of the thumbnail 🤣
" Oh no, she's hot! 😫 "
Sydney Sweeney and Alex Daddario..
This is it boys, the crossover we deserve..
The best pairs in hollywood face off!
This was a decent show. The ending wasn't what most were hoping for but still worth a watch.
Probably the only character that had heart that was surrounded by venomous snakes of characters I feel bad about her ending up with him still.
