Affleck is an amazing filmmaker! Gone Baby Gone and The Town are two of my favourite films and I'm sure Argo will succeed them. This interview shows how passionate he is about film and how intelligent he really is. He represents what is good and exciting about the business and it is truly inspiring!
This interview has seriously inspired me and made me happy knowing how passionate Ben is to his craft. I really enjoyed listening to his insights and opinions when it came to the evolution of cinematography and him going through some of the greatest filmmakers in the history of film. I really liked how he gave a lot of credit to Victor Fleming for his work on The Wizard of Oz and Gone With the Wind. Such a great and likeable guy. He's already one amazing director! Argo for Best Picture!!!
I stumbled upon your channel a few months ago, and come back almost daily. I started by watching interviews about films I've seen or talent I'm a fan of. Since then, I just watch every one because these conversations are great, regardless of who is in the chair. Can't believe these don't have view counts of exponential proportions. These are amazing, thanks.
Yeah...I was one of those smart asses who said "Ben Assflack? Batman? Fuck of!" ....but after viewing this interview and re watching Dare Devil, in my opinion, he will do beter than Bale.His portrayel in DD as a guilt ridden hero was way more internal than Bale.I like the Nolan trilogy but geez.....let's be done with the mopping, crying and quitting type of Batman and bring on the world's greatest detective! Ben for the win.
Samplelord Really humble of you to recognize that. I also had my doubts in the beginning. But I believe he'll do an excellent job. Not BETTER than bale, I believe that all batman's did their own job with the character (except for George Clooney), but I am definitely finding myself far more eager to see him playing the role than I was to see bale.
+Sean Johnson (dragon fo eva) Honestly, he seems like a very wise, humble and kind person. Like someone who you could always rely on for some good piece of advice. No arrogance whatsoever and seems to have great work ethic, not taking anything for granted.I like him a lot too.
Here he is a smart guy and he says something powerful and sadly the interviewer doesn't stop and really HEAR. He jumps onto something else fairly unrelated on his own agenda. You should really LISTEN to what people say and then follow it up, ask for more info on their seemingly off-hand comments. I wish interviewers were not too quick to jump in there with an idea or example of their own. It happens a couple of times. I wanted to hear more expansion on those gems of wisdom.
To be honest, I feel like those "handshake moments" become more about me and being thanked or thanking or whatever than about the film. I started slicing them off a long time ago and my cameraman stops camera pretty quickly once we get there. I get what you're saying, but I don't foresee a change. Of course, the best part of the interview is almost always the 5 minutes after the cameras stop. But that is just a brutal reality about people who are in front of camera professionally.
Interesting his comments on the 70s and American movies. I think that was the very best decade of movies. Really great movies from Star Wars to Chinatown.
As I wrote below... I did NOT think what you wrote was spam... but someone apparently did hit the "report spam" button. It was NOT me. Anyway...your issue is real and you have my sympathy. However... there is a real question if there would be an "Argo" with a Latino lead actor. These kinds of movie's are hard to get funded as is. The lack of someone perceived as a movie star in the lead might have made it impossible for director Affleck. Your beef is with the industry, I think, not Affleck
I didn't flag this as spam. I don't think it's spam/ The issue was about the character Affleck plays - the movie's lead - being Latino and a non-Latino being cast in the role. In some cases, I would agree. Here, I believe he loved the character, regardless of ethnicity and really, really wanted to be that guy. Sensitivity is fair, but not always a major issue. Not in my mind. Had I asked, I am sure Ben would have a smart, fair answer.
i always love the digital vs. film discussion.. imo it should be at least an option. but i have to say that 'Skyfall' (dop deakins) looks pretty great from what i see from the trailers etc...
He has a light cough, kind of clearing his throat. He’s also a smoker. Uh oh . . This was nine years ago. I know he’s still smoking because he just married JLO . . .someone needs to have a talk with him.
There very well could have been an Argo with a latino actor. I think your original comment is on the nose, that Affleck just loved the story and wanted to be that guy.
Why? He can work with mexicans.They're very talent people with success in Hollywood and they speak english and Ben speak spanish.Viva Mexico!!!! I love Ben!!! He's gorgeous and talented artist.
Be awesome to work with him. As much as I love Wally Phister and Chris Nolan as a team, I am a dyed in the wool HD video for cinema guy. I like the immediacy of it. And also the idea that you can keep shooting and let things happen. Good example are a lot of Johnny Depp's & Cheech Marin's improvs on Once Upon a Time in Mexico. So even while I know I need to get that shooting schedule done, a few more minutes here or there spent allowing actors to explore characters can sometimes land you the kind of magic film cannot, (unless of course Kodak is just giving you film....which happens!).
Technically, there were a few transitions in the movie I didn't care for but the movie overall was really, really good. Also keep in mind I am watching the approved for libraries version so you know how that goes. And you're not too hard on the eyes either! LOL!!!
One thought in retrospect.... Affleck was playing the man he met, but not necessarily the man that Tony Mendez *was.* He and his wife had not announced it publicly yet, so Ben didn't know that Tony had Parkinson's, and it dampened his personality quite a bit. I have no doubt that not being seen was *part* of Tony's personality, but it wasn't all of it. It's a shame that we'll never really know who that person was except through the stories of his wife, who is still writing. Hopefully there will be a movie made out of "The Moscow Rules" as well.
Although I don't doubt all of Affleck's opinions are nuanced (very smart man, as this interview proves), I disagree with his statement about political movies; many of them are indeed very preachy, but a few are just gold - All the President's Men, Nixon, JFK, L'Exercice de l'Etat... the list goes on. I dunno, just thought I'd do them justice.
who deserved it ? i love how people will put someone down an not list what they thought should of been nominatd instead. it's one thing being nominated for best picture, completely different ball game when you win. Ben won
My beef is with the industry AND Affleck. Affleck's the director AND playing Antonio Mendez. As he told you in the interview, it was not his project. They came to him. All Affleck needed to do was sit down with the producers (one of whom is George Clooney) and find a Latino talent to give this big break to as they rarely ever get it. If they refused, he should've walked away. Affleck's brother is hardly a box office draw yet that didn't stop Ben from casting him as the lead in Gone Baby, Gone.
OK, get a second camera, shoot from two angles and cut between them. The zooming is just so distracting, but I get the desire for some variety. It's an unnecessary distraction for what are otherwise excellent interviews. Really naturalistic conversations. Very subtle.
He's far from being a good actor, but he's a brilliant writer and director, man. I don't always agree with critics, but they love him just as much as I do. He already won an Oscar for writing Good Will hunting plus nominations and awards for his Gond Baby Gone and The Town. But yeah, I hate his acting :))
Sorry abt that somone else used this connection awhile ago. Look ,whether or not it is effective is irrelevant to usf atleast. becasue what matters they do do it . IT can be a false fad for all I know. but the fad do exist and is indeed a practice among studio heads. Why is Homer Simpson a family man and not like bachelor who created him..Why is Elaine wrote into the cast at final moment..Questions leading to same ans.
No, this isn't spam. Interesting you thought it was. I'm sure if you would've asked Affleck would've given you some rhetoric which you would have most likely accepted. Unlike actors of color, Affleck has options available to him as evidenced by the fact he was in a Terrence Malick movie previous to this one. Actors of color do not. Affleck did not needs this role. This lead role was that of a Latino American hero who lead a risky mission to save lives but a Latino cannot play him.
CONT someone. nt being movie buff doesnt mean he doesnt know anything abt human behavior. ADmit it u arebeing ruthless, unfair and egoistical .No one ca say anything abt this until we ask the people who are doing it ..Not just ask but reallyknow why they do it. & until then you cant just assume things..its like believing in heaven or hell to be true versus having "faith" ..iF you r just going to repeat the things you said before dont bcoz if u do, this arguement wud be pointless
The Town would have left me feeling happy if Affleck didn't end it in such a terribly cliche way. I really enjoyed Argo, but have yet to see Gone Baby Gone.
CONT ultimately this is one of those questions that will have opinions rather than answers..The first article is yet on what is happening and not why it is happening..the why is an opinon than any grounded research andthe second article doesnt even mention racism ..And third one is against asians alone.No latino?? .dat points out to me what really isthe truth behind u ppl. I dont think you'd rather fight this fight in your life rather than on a place like this where no ones going to read..
If you are going to reply like this kindly read my earlier comment again and again and again and again..Goodbye I have a life..And I want to you believe in whatever u want to. Hopefully unconsciously I have sowed some seeds in you to consider otherwise.
No, Argo is not a propaganda film. It is a taut thriller about how history overwhelms governments, embassies, AND individual embassy staffers. What happened in 1979 in Iran was so much more scary than the movie even depicts; if I wanted to fault it, it would be for that. But, of course, the "B-story" of the film is how a self-ridiculing tiny group of Hollywood types snatched victory from the jaws of defeat for the world's biggest laughing-stock intelligence organisation. Wait, isn't that ASIS?
OFcourseI know tht...and thats exactly my point.. And secondly looking at two movies and saying whether or not having lead white guys was effective is close to impossible because you'd have to then create the same movies with same scripts and the same direction BUT with differnt race actors...What Im trying to say is these movies failing could be caused by ANYTHING..As far as I know both thes movie are crappy and have really bad reviews. And thats probably why they failed. CONT
Since you aren't a native English speaker perhaps you should look it up in an English dictionary. Then again, you being from Spain I think it's pretty unbelievable you don't know what it means since those Hispanics that live in Spain that come from Latin American are referred to as such in your country. So either you're pretending you don't know for some odd reason or you are conveniently ignorant.
Yes, they do. The term "Latino" is used in Spanish speaking countries. And don't talk nonsense that we are a "race obsessed" people as if racism doesn't exist in Europe. Racism in Europe (including Spain): /watch?v=KmOzkPRrRlw
Right you saying something to be cold hard truths doesnt make it cold hard truths..I providedreasons for denying everything AS racism .and even rebuked ur claim of what i was linking to..& even still u r saying the same things. If u cant come up with anything perinent against my arguements..why omment at all. I already addressed everything u said and r sayng still u havent done the same.U are being cunning and naive simulateneously. u really cant understand the things I am saying
What proof are you talking ..I want to know about real actors and people in the industry talking about the things you say. Can you provide that?? Saying non-whites contriue to movies doesnt directly mean then that everyone in hollywood are racists.Nor does it mean everything having to do with csting a diff. race actor have to do with racism. COnsider things you saying for godsakes..These are 100s if not 1000s of people from way diff. backgrounds all being racists. CONT
And I deny that..You cant make me believe this until I realize all the peeople doing this together can be called as racist .I see no reason think like that..And i agian mentioning how ad why I denied all ur earlier references...This arguement is ppintless because uarent responding to me .all i m doing here is waste my time
Ok, propaganda filme. Filmes are not always supposed to be close to reality, I mean, he did not do a documentary.., Do you know the importance of "fiction" in a movie ? Anyways, It's hard to accept the truth for anyone. By from my loved Brazil.
white whatever be the case IS a majority and a major one at that....And about Ad hominems ..WTF are you talking about I never attackedyou personally or didnt call u names. What I said at my last comment was honest opinion for your line of thinking.
CONT its the same reason why a movie like twilight even though horridly reviewed ..still get watched comparitively . Whatever you'd like to think about Hollywood it is simply not a race empowering humanistic non profit organisation ..its a business ..thats why they call it an industry...If u cant understand that then I am very sorry you are oblivious and a pacifist thinking through your emotions
CONT you honestly can expect to take you seriously now that you asserted your claim that casting a white actor as Goku was racism ..that was infamous all over back then..And I agree that maybe non whites do contribute a lot to a movie..But are there any one major race who contribute larger than the caucasian audience .no ..and that is what I said,
"I think political movies don't work very well." And I think that's a cop out, Ben. You can't make a film portraying Iran in a bad light when we are on the precipice of bombing them and expect to come out critically unscathed.
Brilliant director? seriously? he is a good director, sure, but brilliant is a bit much. Most of the best stuff in Town was just a rip off of better directors anyway. The shoot out was like a b-grade Heat. The best directors today aren't even working in Hollywood.
"entire" documentary amounts to nothing if its based looney delusional ideas. MPAA and UCLA ,gave me ideas on white actors being hired more and nothing on racism ,the latino producer was talking abt a lost opportunity & nt on any racial prejudice ,descrimination.. Me on the otherhand linked to a psychology prof. at UCLA talking about human behavior which is what we are talking about also FYI.. conclusion :I sticking to what i'm believing and wud only advise others for that

The underrated Affleck.
Man this guy is knowledgable! Ben knows so much stuff about films. I find him very interesting. I could listen to Ben talk for hours.
Brilliant interview. Ben Affleck is a stand up guy. Respect.
This channel has the best guests when it comes to film. For real.
Ben can direct his ass off. He really knows how to make movies.
What fool you are!! Jlo will might stone you! HAHAHA.
Handsome humble guy love him
just here to see and hear ben 😍😍😍
Umm.. no shit.
Great movie! Ben Affleck has to be one of the most underrated movie makers around. He reminds me of having a potential career like Clint Eastwood....
all of these DP films are absolutely wonderful-whoever you are you should be very proud!

How are you guys holding up? What did you think of his Batman overall?
Two reasons I'm going to see Argo: Gone Baby Gone and The Town.
great interview.love ben affleck.....
The last sequence with his son's action figures on the shelf are incredible shots
Ben pls direct another movie
i love you ben
I really like Ben Affleck, I think he's a cool guy.
Sean Johnson A cool guy who coughs, snorts and clears his throat a whole lot!
MmeDesgranges Maybe he's nervous, you never know.

Well that was UHHHUNNNGGGGH a fascinating interview.
I loved Argo. Much thanks to our Canada
Remember back in 2012 when Affleck was a happy guy?
To be honest, I feel like those "handshake moments" become more about me and being thanked or thanking or whatever than about the film. I started slicing them off a long time ago and my cameraman stops camera pretty quickly once we get there. I get what you're saying, but I don't foresee a change.

Great interview. Affleck is proving alot of people wrong as a director. keep it up
ben affleck is a good director
Interesting his comments on the 70s and American movies. I think that was the very best decade of movies. Really great movies from Star Wars to Chinatown.
love the movie
Que elegancia de charla, la película de argo es espectacular., demasiado para poder decir que muy real. 😊😊😊
He's going to make a great Batman. Just watch!

The Coen Brothers wrote Barton Fink in like 3 weeks apparently as a way of breaking from Miller's Crossing for a while

I am so jealous of his stubble.
He has a light cough, kind of clearing his throat. He’s also a smoker. Uh oh . . This was nine years ago. I know he’s still smoking because he just married JLO . . .someone needs to have a talk with him.
There very well could have been an Argo with a latino actor. I think your original comment is on the nose, that Affleck just loved the story and wanted to be that guy.
Have you seen him he is very nice older gent, my friend you have friends right.
what is thar rim light
Are you interviewing yourself? The interviewer has a suspiciously similar voice to the interviewee!
Ben Affleck is very likeable and charismatic like Cary Grant or Elvis.
So I guess the outlook from Side by Side is a lot more grim on the future of film vs digital.
wait he's working with Rodrigo Prieto and Lubezki how?
Why? He can work with mexicans.They're very talent people with success in Hollywood and they speak english and Ben speak spanish.Viva Mexico!!!! I love Ben!!! He's gorgeous and talented artist.
Be awesome to work with him. As much as I love Wally Phister and Chris Nolan as a team, I am a dyed in the wool HD video for cinema guy. I like the immediacy of it.

awwwwww,Ben is so hot!
Whoever is interviewing Ben sounds like him lol
❤❤❤
oh shit it's batman
awesome interviews. just please stop zooming in and out of your subject. very distracting. other then that, love what you are doing. great job.
is it possible for Ben to a better director. After watching this i just have more respect for his directing.
Batfleck!
Coach & Horses Baby!

Although I don't doubt all of Affleck's opinions are nuanced (very smart man, as this interview proves), I disagree with his statement about political movies; many of them are indeed very preachy, but a few are just gold - All the President's Men, Nixon, JFK, L'Exercice de l'Etat... the list goes on. I dunno, just thought I'd do them justice.
I see batman in him.
Orson Welles and John Cassavetes
who deserved it ? i love how people will put someone down an not list what they thought should of been nominatd instead. it's one thing being nominated for best picture, completely different ball game when you win. Ben won
My beef is with the industry AND Affleck. Affleck's the director AND playing Antonio Mendez.

Is this Boyce Avenue? It's amazing!!! Better than the original.
you're a genius
OK, get a second camera, shoot from two angles and cut between them. The zooming is just so distracting, but I get the desire for some variety. It's an unnecessary distraction for what are otherwise excellent interviews. Really naturalistic conversations. Very subtle.
when i see affleck all i see is bruce wayne
He's far from being a good actor, but he's a brilliant writer and director, man. I don't always agree with critics, but they love him just as much as I do. He already won an Oscar for writing Good Will hunting plus nominations and awards for his Gond Baby Gone and The Town. But yeah, I hate his acting :))
The Town was a better film in my esteem.
Sorry abt that somone else used this connection awhile ago.

MPAA and UCLA ,gave me ideas on white actors being hired more and nothing on racism ,the latino producer was talking abt a lost opportunity & nt on any racial prejudice ,descrimination.. Me on the otherhand linked to a psychology prof. at UCLA talking about human behavior which is what we are talking about also FYI..
conclusion :I sticking to what i'm believing and wud only advise others for that
I love their movies.
However i wasn't impressed with the way he portrayed the British in this film.
LIES BEN!!
