So polite. Each side gave each other ample time to voice their grievances before engaging in combat. Very civilized.
Right before they slaughtered each other...
Civil indeed
@@dustyowl2448 more civil then most thing now adays
@@nanoviolence7681 not really humans have always been violent
@@farmermaggotscrop9068 Yep, the problem is our weapons do more and more damage, so we have to be less violent.
@@Balinux no...MORE violent, just less "effort".
Censor him saying "bitches", but show barbaric fighting, death, and mutilation. Makes sense.
censorship is messy and inconsistant
Sounds like U.S.A. for me. ^^
@@DieHardly88 Pretty much. We cant say "fuck", but we can show a man getting decapitated on a table by a machete while 2 dudes hold him down (Breaking Bad)
Blame RUclips. They get all Nancy when people say the B-Word.
I feel like the fight in the film was way more brutal than is shown in this RUclips clip.
and not a phone in sight, just people enjoying living in the moment..
Things were much simpler back then.
Oh they lived in the moment alright 😂
For however long the moment lasted.
😂😂😂
This comment is always made by someone holding a phone.
2:57 This moment really sums up what Scorsese wanted to show with this scene. Amsterdam is remembering this fight scene from when he was a child. "Some of it I half remember, and the rest I took from dreams". That's why the fight scene seems so gaudy and over-the-top; it's being recollected from a traumatized kid's memory of the worst day of his life.
Thanks, makes sense now
Good take.
I doubt he was traumatized from the battle itself. I think a real boy of that era would enjoy the spectacle. His Father's death did him in though.
@@nikosgreek352 It’s a debatable interpretation, but I think Scorsese put that shot of his flinch into the montage on purpose. He’s not enjoying the sight of the battle, and there’s a heavy focus on the dead and injured as they writhe or fall to the ground. Sure, he would be more desensitized than us, but I think this was his first real fight, so he wasn’t used to it yet.
@@nikosgreek352 The impression I got was that he had a romanticized notion of what the battle would be like, but was traumatized by the very different, and much more horrific, reality of it. He was a tough street urchin in a violent time and place, yes, but he hardly saw something like this before.
DDL takes his roles so seriously he actually killed 371 men while filming this movie.
Very committed to his craft he is 😂
😂 😂 😂
And grossly disfigured 786.
Indeed. It's called method acting.
Be literally scared to death filming this movie with DDL
Good thing they beeped out that swear word at the beginning, otherwise I would have closed this video and missed all of the graphic violence.
🤣
Imagine if there was a booby in there
Take a moment to appreciate the badass that was Priest Vallon here. He'd already fought Bill The Butcher before - who we are shown is very dangerous later - and won. He beat him to a pulp and left him alive. Then Bill challenges him again, and he agrees, fighting with a longsword and a giant cross to bludgeon people with, while standing a head above the crowd like a black tower.
Bill has to throw a combatant at him to ensure Vallon is distracted killing him while he secures a jab. And even then, Vallon begins choking him. It takes a killshot to the flank to finally topple him.
No wonder Bill honoured him still, 15 years later. Vallon was a badass.
When you´re feeling pain and hold your ground you´re already a badass.
When you´re watching unspeakable violence and chaos and hold your ground you´re a badass.
When you´re staying cool while everything around you goes downhill you´re a badass.
Not moaning in the face of death means you´re a badass.
Vallon accomplished all four of them.
Makes him one of the worst badasses amongst all badasses, I guess.
This is what trumper would do. To trumper soliders are losers and suckers.
The fact that he had such high regard for the dead rabbit leader was such a good narrative. He respected him so much as a warrior and adversary and viewed him as his greatest feat.
Respected him so much as a warrior that he stabbed him from behind. lol
tbf bigoted xenophobes arent known for their valor or honor.@@adam0887
He plucked out his own eye in deference to the man as he was ashamed he could not look him in the eye during a beating. Later in the movie he commented several times that "the Priest" was the best man he ever fought.
j
Because he was what he couldn't be a true leader vs a coward . Unfortunately the coward won the battle but he lost the war
@@adam0887He never stabbed him from behind, he pushed a man at him to take his sword then he stabbed him in the gut….
It was impressive how those different gangs never interrupted each other during those introductions.
And they never brought pistols to their fights either
they met up a fee days before and did a rehearsal
@@roo450actually they did met before to agree on terms and where the battle will take place
Priest with a cross and a sword like a damn battle Cleric fucking epic
Please read about Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla he was a real Catholic priest with a sword who Fought the Spanish on the Mexican Independence war, still a hero for many of us
Reminds me if medievil battles.
I thought he was gunna use the metal cross like a club. Could sharpen the edges making it into and axe
@@cleanerben9636 He is shown to be hitting people with it.
They worship human blood sacrifice. That is their icon.
John C. Reilly never messed around when someone touched his drum set.
haha
The Priest must've put his ballsack on them.
This must be the early ancestor to the step brother with a signed samurai sword.
@@talonk3 the timeline would fit.
"Brick, where'd you get a hand grenade?"
"I.. don't know.."
Boy, that escalated quickly.
Hand grenades existed nearly 200 years before this
They had a small handheld cannonball hollowed to hold black powder and lit with a fuse
This scene slaps every time. The soundtrack is nostalgic and so badass. Another reason why this movie is one of my all time favorites.
You are puddle deep.
That leather helmet gave DayLewis +10 defence..two handed fighting +15 agility, butchers cleaver n short sword + 25 attack, that moustache..+ 30 fear

Oh... I forgot 'bout multicolored belt, it gives +300 hp and +2 hp/sec(or turn) regen (parameters can be changed, but surely it gives hp, but how many...)
he needs a nerf
Alright.... About skills, hehehe)
1) meat shield - blocks an attack, sacrificing the closest unit...
2) slash a leg - attacks and decreases speed (-50%)...
3) duel - fight 1-on-1 vs a target, all another units are prohibited to fight vs either of them...
4) strike under ribs...(passive) increases crit.chance and crit.damage
Oh.... And about weapons, they have a chance to cause bleeding
Daniel Day Lewis is the GOAT. The way he plays his character is truly amazing.
The way he had to make that vulgar New York accent was incredible too.
He is ranked #4
Daniel Day Lewis at his finest. The ending was a tad hokey for me, but any time an actor can make a villain more loved than the hero it says a ton
Real patriot he was
Villain?
The whole movie was hokey lol
terrible movie
He was really good in there will be blood! Terrific movie
This is the real Christmas spirit.
Yup, nothing like gentlemen enjoying a morning scrap.
I wish i have this snow fight
Imagine all the 'miss nancys' wanting to cancel this if it would have been released this year!
Classic
Huh???
That woman flying around biting peoples ears off terrified me as a child
I think I read somewhere that she like Monk and Bill Poole (Bill the Butcher) were historical figures
Hell-Cat Maggie
I think I dated her once 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣😅. I think most men can relate 😂😂😂😂
I'm glad that Liam Neeson allowed Daniel day lewis to kill him. It just makes the movie that more realistic. Excellent method acting.
But is Liam Neeson immortal? Are his methods supernatural?...
or cheap parlor tricks to conceal his true identity… 👀
Daniel had to cheat to beat Liam, that say a lot about how dangerous Liam was
“Then may the Christian Lord guide my hand against your Roman popery”
I always chuckle at that line
Prepare to receive the True Lord
Things like this were said in real life, while Jesus Cringed all the time.
Use that line on my Catholic friends
Why?
Yea well, Roman Catholocism is about as Christian as Islam.
I like how at the beginning of the fight you don't see any huge wounds or blood. But as the chaos ramps up they went hard. Really helps with the mood.
Yeah no doubt
We are talking about Scorcese here, he is really into detailing
To think this was before elastoplast.🤕
Looks like an N.B.A. Game.
Yeah…I wonder if that was an oversight by Scorsese…he doesn’t shy away from blood…I noticed in this scene there was people slashing each other with nary a bit of blood coming out of the wound
Lots of funny trash talk, but "prepare to receive the true Lord" always gets me🤣
*MAY THE CHRISTIAN LORD GUIDE MY HAND AGAINST YOUR ROMAN POPERY!*
😂😂😂 right!??? That's when you know shit is deathly serious 😂
Imagine how stupid our trash talk today will sound 150 yrs from now. At least we know what they were conveying.
The way Bill just rants “to settle for good ‘n all!” is just beastly. Love it.
My favorite part is when Monk gets hyped and starts screaming for who wants some. His character was a reluctant warrior. But when he was in it. He was there for it!
"PREPARE TO RECEIVE THE TRUE LORD" Somebody get that man an Oscar
One of the most underrated badass retorts in film history. Just absolutely epic!
The top hats flying in the air before butchering each other, like its a fucking graduation commencement cracks my shit up!
This looks like a good wholesome movie a family can enjoy together on a quiet, Rainy Sunday afternoon 🤣🤣🤣

Lol my family is christian and they thought this was a religious film and every Sunday we used to get together and watch movies..so we watched this one lol boy there faces
later on bill explains how the priest beat him half to death in a fair fight and spared him and bill respected him more than anyone
The priest spared him do he could live with the shame of his defeat .
"This was a great man." - Bill The Butcher speaking on Priest Vallon
@@staticx2552Thats why he allows Decaprio to live the same way. Lesson learned and lesson cycle repeated.
@@staticx2552 That's why Bill thinks he was spared. I think that Priest Vallon likely wanted him to repent but Bill saw it as Priest Vallon wanting him to live in shame. Right after he brings this up Bill proclaims Priest Vallon a great man for wanting him to live in shame. Two different worldviews.
The only way he can beat Priest is by cheating or sacrificing someone. Like what he did, he shoved someone else to die so he can get through with his cheap shot.
A cool detail is that Butcher calls out to the Priest before he goes for the kill. It’s only a split second, but it’s enough time for the Priest to turn and swing his weapon. It shows that Butcher refused to stab the Priest in the back. And that he respected his own twisted warrior code.
After he stabs several people in the back
It doesn't seem like that to me. Priest Vallon had already defeated Bill in a one-on-one fight. He knew how strong he was and in this confrontation he couldn't leave anything to chance. And that's what happens in this fight. Someone hits the priest's left arm with an axe. Bill knew at that moment the priest could only use his right arm, the one holding the sword. Then Bill calls him knowing that the priest would not hesitate to deliver a fatal blow. Right there, Bill takes another fighter and takes him towards Vallon to receive the sword, which cancels any threat and then he can stab Vallon, who still shows himself capable of strangling Bill until he receives a second stab. It was not honorable, but rather a sure strategy to win.
@@TheRollerballerit was a fight to the death, in an intense melee of combat, staying alive is all luck of the draw and skill, strength. Bill won, that’s it
The Peter Gabriel soundtrack is perfect for this scene. This movie is still one of my favorites
It is a very difficult but very beautiful film to watch.
Black Friday can be pretty rough.
A little detail that some may have missed - the first stab to Priest Vallon is not a fatal blow. A stab to the guts like that will bleed a lot, but can be survived with some medical attention. It's not until he puts his hands on Bill's throat that he stabs him in the lungs for the kill. Bill knows this, and confirms it when he demonstrates to Amsterdam later in the movie using a hanging pig corpse.
I never picked up on that!
Yeah basically explaining how he killed his dad
@WungusBill To be fair, the aorta is retroperitoneal; it lies at the back next to the spine, and is only rarely damaged by knife wounds from the front or side.
That been said, a gut wound would still be almost invariably fatal before antibiotics were available, with the victim dying a slow, agonizing death from peritonitis and sepsis.
Yeah right. It's a fatal kill in the 19th century.
Wrong. First stab was a kill shot. You dont survive that. Please keep your nonsense away from youtube
Watched this last night for the first time, brilliant film and masterful acting from Daniel Day Lewis as always.
I watched this years ago when it 1st came out. Kept asking friends if they'd saw it but literally no one watched it til it was out for over ten years then all of a sudden everyone's like omg what a movie 🤣 it is a beast of a film tho
Agreed. I just watched some documentary about dress making with him in it. Odd job choice but he made it interesting
One of the best opening scenes ever. Totally gets you into it.
@@kentuckyking4343 that's great, do you want a medal?
@@johnlandas3739 damn youre a tryhard
Using of Peter Gabriel 'Signal to noise' for this scene is a genius idea. This music and 2/3 close shots of the child turn a bloody exciting fight into a deep criticism of human supidity.

In a giant melee like that even the best fighters can get stabbed in the back or taken out by someone relatively low-skilled.
That can happen in any sort of mass combat
Yes, in a real battle all it takes is just ONE stray bullet to kill Rambo. But not in the movies. It wouldn't suit the dramatic storyline well at all.
Agreed the fight is pretty ridiculous. If you expect your opponent to bring a meat cleaver you would make sure you wear some sort of protection to shield yourself. Even a jacket oif thick leather would have helped. They knew that even in the middle ages.
@@butchjohnson9736 - Yeah. 🙂 Back then, though, the wealthier could buy themselves excellent armor, while the poor had to make do with little or none. Must have been hell being a peasant when a war was happening...or pretty much all the time, eh?
@@georgecoventry8441 most peasants weren't involved in wars back then. They had to stay behind and tend to the crops, or the rich people wouldn't have anything to eat.
I love this movie and this is a good scene, but some of the cinematography and the choice of music here, diminish it for me.
Agree. I really dislike the soundtrack, also don't like the 'blurry' effects that are occasionally used
I'd rather it be music-less with screams, scrape of metal and the thudding of flesh
The music was alright until the guitar kicked in. Lol I thought someone dubbed it over.
It gets a little bit battlefield earth-y
@@beandob lol that's a pretty good comparison
This movie is still a 1000 times better than 99,9% of modern day "movies"
The violence that actually occurred daily in the Five Points was much worse than what is depicted in the film. You'll notice that there is an absence of firearms; pistols , rifles and shotguns were expensive, ammunition was as well. These people were poorer than we can imagine, even if you stole a firearm, finding ammunition was difficult[food was more imperative]. What a difference from today.
It was during the Civil War. Most of the weapons, gunpowder, & ammo were consigned to the war effort.
The most un-bloody axe fight ever recorded
This is why I always thought Bill the Butcher should have been a downloadable character in Mortal Kombat!

“A few crusty b*tches and a handful of rag tags?” Bills got some zingers.

RUclips logic
"Roman Popery"...sorry I know its a serious scene but that gets me everytime
I always heard it "Roman Potpourri" and wondered what do fragrant leaves have to do with it.
I still don't understand why he talks of fighting honourably when he did not fight honourably at all against The Priest.
I feel that the reason he speaks of this is because deep down he feels ashamed at how he won that battle, and wishes to die fighting an honourable battle.
Its because he is full of crap.
Exactly 💯%
He's a very hypocritical character, that billy boy
Vallon wanted Bill to live in shame, and so he did.
It took me various times watching this battle to realize that they actually are wearing uniforms. The various Irish Gangs have their own uniform but wear red. The Natives wear blue and pretty much the same.
And ironically, blue is the national colour of Ireland.
@@JimmySteller I would have figured green for Ireland, red for Northern Ireland.
Such a fantastic piece of cinema.
I watched this movie as a young man, and was enthralled by it.
I watched it later as an adult, and it was even better.
Bill the Butcher is such a fantastic antagonist and DDL’s portrayal of him, with his deep method acting makes the movie.
10/10
Daniel using some Mohican skills right there...
Daniel day lewis is such a great actor!!! Everthing from his acting to just the way he carries himself, you can tell he really really takes his craft seriously
Yeah that's why he left acting. He had issues letting go of the characters after movies. That's how much he immersed himself in his acting. It's sad really because he's such a good actor.
Look up his training for Last of The Mohicans. By the time he played the role of Hawkeye, he was barely acting. He WAS Hawkeye.
@@IIDASHII To this day I have not seen Last of the Mohicans. I probably should lol
When my moms side of the family gets together with my dads for the Holidays
When I was a kid in the 80’s, this is exactly what our town wide snowball fights seemed like.
It's a known fact that Rome has never smelled very good. Throughout history, as Rome developed, more and more human and animal waste flowed through the cities. The vast sewer system carried it away but did little to prevent the smell. This led to Roman, and later Italian, citizens losing their sense of smell. They tried to get it back by developing new fragrances and even putting excessive garlic, onion, and other seasonings in their food, but the smell was always too pungent and strong.
This is why Bill "The Butcher" Cutting has such a problem with Roman Potpourri.
Amazing acting from Sean Bean in this scene, pulling off 63 different deaths in under 3 minutes
No videogames, no smartphones, no TV just people having wholesome fun back then.
I doubt there was ever a gang war that looked like this. Simply because if there's going to be that many of them on both sides for a planned battle they going to build cheap Shields or fight with Spears.
If either side had a predominance of shields or spears they would have wiped out the other side.
I agree. All those stupid masks and costumes do nothing but impede you in a fight. People'd be carrying shields and wearing homemade body armour in a brawl like this.
@@ThisHandleWasTheOnly1Available and body armor does not have to be fancy or expensive for a fight like that. Leather has been very effective for many centuries
Not to mention the bow and arrow. 19th century equivalent of the sniper.
True. Thou if you think back to the Civil War, Men would line up in stright rows and take a shot at each other before reloading. No shields or barries between them. Following the code of the "Fair Shot". Some of the Men here would have been raised in that mine set, not to mention would view armor as unsportsmen.
@@KaeganThornhillTheCyberRaven
I think the Irish would have constructed Shield because they had a living tradition they inherited of using Targe and sword. Trage being a small round Shield.
The natives would have constructed Spears because that is what a musket with a Bayonet is after you fire it.
Then they would have lined up in formation which would make a lot of sense for concentration of force.
a saga only starts when Liam Neeson drops his sword for the last time
If Bill The Butcher didn't sneak attack Priest Vallon like that the Irish would have prevailed, while Vallon would in all likelihood have killed The Butcher. What a superbly filmed scene!
To be fair, i think honor goes out the window when your opponent brings a sword to a knife fight.
Thanks to the native guy with the war pick in the lower part of the screen at the 1:48 mark to make me laugh at the start of such a serious fight and after such impressive speech from two great actors.
the music score playing as Bill the Butcher slowly walks through the crowd taking his time killing people was great acting by Daniel Day Lewis almost as if he was slowly biding his time to get near Priest Vallon but the way he stabbed him the second time showing no remorse . definitely a cold blooded kill along with how they took ears and noses as trophy's but a lot of respect by the Butcher not letting anyone touch Priest Vallon saying he'll cross over whole in honor..
The Butcher is one of the best characters ever put on film.

They are doing a remake in 2024 where Bill the Butcher is Transgender!
Bill The Butcher was a real life historical figure.

I've watched this scene so many times, but for the first time I've noticed something odd. For so many old-school, hand-to-hand combat weapons, real "medieval" stuff, there is very little blood, and "Bill the Butcher" hacks away at men who aren't looking! He's Bill the Slacker. Good movie overall! Wahi' Valleys
Yes, it is Medieval, like in Braveheart or in Antiquity like in Gladiator.
These less privileged people are still just as barbaric. Their overall living standards are the same.
It remains the same today.
@@antonboludo8886 Neither of those movies are historically accurate.
@@TheThingInMySink Yes, of course. I know this.

At least they didn't break into song for 10 minutes.
The scene where they are all firemen complete with gear is even more ridiculous.
One of the best example of 00's culture. Everything tried to look like a music clip or a videogame cinematic.
I was only 13 when this movie came out but my mother did go see it in theaters, i think she thought it was going to be a historical fiction/romance movie, kind of like titanic. She also hates violent movies. I eventually saw it when I was in high school and asked her, "So what did you think of the movie when you saw it in theaters?"
"It was the bloodiest movie I have ever seen in my life."
3:27 that move where he tears the guys cheek off is fucking crazy.
The old fish hook. That cheesy movie with DiCaprio shows the same move, but the opponent submits. Far and Away
Such a powerful movie. Everyone plays their role So Well. A graphic violent movie also. 👍👍👍👍
I guess Liam Neeson has yet to have his particular set of skills.
I like the guy at 1:50 who throws down his axe at the very beginning of the battle to ineffectively jump on a dude.

We need Bill The Butcher more than ever
I just noticed the Bill the Butcher threw another man at Priest Vallon to distract him and open him up to his attack. He may have won the fight, but the kill wasn’t as straight up and honorable as he makes it out to be later.
That's the point. Bill is a hypocrite. He stabs Monk in the back, he rushes Amsterdam in the mist from behind to hamstring him, it's all cowardly moves from a guy who bitches about 'honour'.
That's the point, he's a hypocrite. An irredeemable and racist hypocrite who couldn't even live up to the standard he used to judge other people.
Aww it's true but "threw a man" (at another man) still has to move the needle on the Badass-O-Meter somewhere doesn't it?
He did that because he knew priest was stronger than him
Gangs of New York is criminally underated movie ever by Martin Scorsese
I love the beginning; 1860's trash talk. lol:)
The guy that got fish hooked at 3:27 and his cheek ripped open.. I'd rather get stabbed then go through that
What about getting your foot and leg broken by Monk's shillelagh?
I like how Bill shouts "Priest!" before attacking. He could've stabbed him in the back, but he wanted Priest Vallon to know he was coming.
Not really. Still took him from behind, really. No honour.
And tossed another dude into him so he could not properly defend himself.
@@emilpindur9400 Exactly.
No, he couldn't just stab from behind the priest that easy and he knew it, that's why he used that trap to stab him
Imagine being in a good fight like that and having a flying witch ( or whatever the hell that was ) zip in and tear your ear off. That's not fair
Random reply. But took a class on Scorsese decades ago. Recalled that professor asked the class what the editing here and the flying woman meant and no one answered and he seemed disappointed. He was a big Scorsese nut. Later I figured it's because the unreal stuff is from the point of view of child Amsterdam.
@@BlackCatRamen She wasn't flying, she jumped on the guy, and her character was actually one of the most accurate parts in the movie, altho she was a composite of two different women from that time: one wore the copper hooks on her gloves, the other liked to bite people's ears off and kept them in a pickle jar
@@BlackCatRamen "Some of it I half remember, and the rest I took from dreams" It took me way too long to realise that about the battle, I just always chalked it up to Scorsese being hyperbolic, but goddamn was he smart to lay the foundations like that. Especially when he cuts to Amsterdam watch the battle with growing horror.
There's just something about the way bill fights that's so methodical and efficient like one two hits and move on. Like in 10 seconds he's already disabled or mortally wounded 5 people moving through the crowd
This movie should NEVER be censored.
I liked the Butcher even though he was the "bad guy" I was rooting for him....
Gotta like it when a bad guy is so blatant you give him credit.
Who says he was the bad guy? Seemed to be a pretty decent guy for a power player. He took in and cared for/mentored orphans, tried to make sure people got fed, tried to keep false religion out of politics, fought literal degenerates. What did he do wrong?
he was the good guy... just defending his homeland
