The way he says: "This is the really real world" is crazy because he's trying to come to grips that he's about to be killed by a person he killed a whole year ago.
That opera music at the end as brandon lights the flame of the bird just sends chills down my spine ubber creepy and dark. What a movie, There will never be another movie like this classic. One of the greatest of all time.
Tha part from 1:53 on when T-Bird realizes who Eric is, gives me the chills. Especially combined with that choir music. Don't know why, that scene is haunting.
This is my favorite moment in this film. David Patrick Kelly is one of my favorite character actors and he sells the everloving FUCK out of this scene. Man, the way the music score comes in when realization dawns upon him. And it's all the more powerful because Eric never speaks to him here. What a moment...
Explosives on nuts for raping wife lol knew I knew u lol God damn forgein cars missed lol American muscle, her boyfriend shows up and shows different before marriage on Halloween, killed u dead no coming back lol
What makes this scene so great also makes it sad. Brandon was already lost by this point, but the way they worked around it made the scene so cold and eerie. We barely see his face, aside from edited in previous shots, and he doesn't say a word. T-Bird is basically begging for his life, but Eric doesn't care. He doesn't have to talk or respond. T-Bird is going to die.
@@superjackster0165I did some research and as far as I can tell/read it sounds like this was after. Makes sense, because there is no dialogue from him during it. Camera also stayed at shoulder level or behind him. The shot of his face was edited in from footage that was not used.
@@BryanVGK23 I made that comment before doing some research. I was wrong. It turns out that this was one of the scenes that was shot after Brandon died
Its been years since I've seen this scene, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned this in the comments. Eric wanted T-Bird to watch every second of his own demise. Eric purposely ducktaped his eyebrows/eyelids so T-Bird had no way of closing his eyes or flinching before the explosion occurred. Eric had died a similar way by T-birds (and Fun Boy) hands, keeping his eyes open the entire time after being shot and thrown off the building, while the same song was playing. Revenge at its finest. Heh.
T-Bird for most of his life was always indifferent towards the idea of there ever being a God in some form or another. But once he realised who Eric was, that the mysterious man was God's right hand and Angel of Death, he knew that judgement for all his sins was waiting for him in the next world. It was then he knew real fear, that all his power of being Top Dollar's chief enforcer ruling the streets of Detroit through intimidation and suffering counted for nothing. He immediately regretted every choice he had made, but it was too late, he had no chance of ever atoning. While Eric had the personal satisfaction of carrying this out, he'd served his purpose as the ferryman of dark souls. T-Birds soul was purified in the flames of his car exploding and burning the skin from his bones. Skank the last member of the gang witnessed this, he watched Eric walk away disappearing into the night, and in his drug addled mind had at least one lucid thought: His Judgement Day was coming next.
I heard that they filmed this scene AFTER Lee's Death. The image of his face was edited in from a previous scene, which is why you only see it twice and it looks kinda 'funny.' Almost like it doesn't go with the scene. Makes sense when you consider how we only view Eric from the back in his frontal shots and his hands and arms the rest of the time. And if that's true, then David Patrick Kelly's performance is utterly brilliant and may be the most under-rated acting in the history of cinema.
A very VERY.....Haunting Scene. "Abashed the Devil stood" Actions Speak louder than Words. "The key to immortality is 1st Living a life worth remembering"- Bruce Lee.....The scene/movie cements Brandon Lee's immortality.
"This the BEST, WORST feeling,, And if I die a death....!? I die a DEATH, WORTH LIVING!!! UH...!!!" Lil Wayne - intro - carter 4 album... statement closely aligns with brandon's.... 🤷🏿♂️ The statement brandon made was in regards to someone outside of his father, believe it or not...!!! His father attended a catholic school... 'st. xavier high' in tong, Kowloon, hong kong, china
The whole movie is a masterpiece an one of my all time favourites,but THIS scene in particular is a pure gem(from 01:50 to the very end It's scarily amazing and the music sends shivers down my spine).Rest in Immortality,Brandon...
What I love about each of the gang's deaths, is that they die by something they love... Tin Tin die by his knives, Funboy die by his drugs, T-Bird die by fire along with his car (the first line we hear from him is about how much of a pyromaniac he is) and Skank die alone, when he loved to be a follower. Everything in this film is so poetic!
I just noticed The 2004 Punisher was inspired to this in the end in a different way when he shot Howard Saint (John Travolta) he tied him to the back of a car and having the car drive off, dragging the Howard behind. As the remote controlled vehicle drives through the parking lot, cars explode and Howard Saint burns alive & it shows the Punisher Skull Fire.
That moment was Karma. That “oh fuck that’s right” feeling really broke T-Bird, not just as a criminal but as a person. Homie had to take that one on the chin because he knew what he did to Eric in detail. People can be funny like that. All of a sudden he remembers what Shelly mentioned in her poem about the devil and how it applies to him. It sucks he just got that seconds before his death but u know¯\_(ツ)_/¯
joliecide I agree but it wasn’t Brandon in this scene unfortunately. It was filmed with a double hence the no dialogue coming from Eric. The shots of his face were edited in and were from unused/deleted footage
Second and third were pretty good, alex especially( third crow) i feel like is the closest to Eric Draven.None of the movies were as good as the first tho because none had Brandon
David Patrick Kelly. One of the truly great character actors. “48 Hrs,” “The Warriors,” “Dreamscape,” “Commando…” Worked with David Lynch, Spike Lee, Clint Eastwood, David O. Russell… the list goes on. Absolutely unforgettable as T-Bird. The villains were so good in this film.
The acting is great. T-bird's absolute panic realising who Eric is and what it means for himself. That if people can come back from the dead like this, to enact revenge, then there is a very real chance that his death is just the beginning of his torment, that there is an afterlife and his isn't going to be pretty.

This was the best death out of all of them. The way the music kicks in when T-Bird is the first one who realises who Eric really is plus that epic flame crow. They don’t make action movies like this anymore.
I awlays liked movie back in the day for the action and revenge, the goth aesthetic, but holy shit coming back to it the acting is too notch all around.
There are movies you watch and movies you know every line. That is the impact The Crow had on me. It was as though I was listening to Milton's poem through every scene. Almost 30 years later, I still get chills hearing T-Bird's final words before his executioner and an eerie, sad feeling knowing this was Brandon Lee's last and greatest performance. RIP Brandon, you are sorely missed.
You know what sucks if the director of this movie would have just had Brandon Lee Wear a bullet proof vest while filming this movie he still would be alive today Who knows how many more movies he would have made Rest in peace Mr. Brandon Lee and God-bless Your Soul
I like when the bad guy realizes that this guy, is the guy they killed a year ago.... Suddenly everything gets real...God...Heaven...Hell...Devil...and he knows that he is going to be judged for his sins...
Eric's face isn't shown throughout this scene because that's not Brandon Lee there. Even if his face was shown, it's just from a deleted scene or something.
I wonder if there was meant to be more dialogue between T-Bird and Eric, since they used Brandon's double here? As it happens, I think Eric's silence works better.
The sad music at 01:53 really gets you... After BEN HUR(1959), TEN COMMANDMENTS... The movie with really good & original acting is this movie "THE CROW"... 1) T-Bird is afraid of Dying 2) Eric is already dead and afraid as he dont want to live anymore but taking revenge in a strong way 3) The real sad part is that Brandon Lee/Eric Draven really died in this movie... RIP Brandon Lee

Abashed the Devil stood...
It’s epic best film an probably the best scene from the film. The whole thing is perfect in my opinion
Hollywood have studied frequencies and music and how it affects it emotions . And that's one of them
I thought I was the only one to get the chills on that exact part, no matter how many times I watch it.
This is my favorite moment in this film. David Patrick Kelly is one of my favorite character actors and he sells the everloving FUCK out of this scene. Man, the way the music score comes in when realization dawns upon him. And it's all the more powerful because Eric never speaks to him here. What a moment...
i feel like im not the only one who did this but i cried at this scene.I really like how T-bird KNEW he messed up and realized who Eric was.
"I know you. I know you. I knew i knew you! I knew i knew you! But you ain't you. You can't be you"
That is top notch writing and acting.
We put you through the window there ain't no coming *back*
"Believe me... nothing is trivial "

T-Bird's acting is off the scale in this scene. Great work David Patrick Kelly.
This scene is so cinematic, it’s beautiful, my all time favorite scene and my all time favorite movie

Watch Erics fingers at 2:40 he's doing the clinking bottles gesture T-bird David Patrick Kelly did in The Warriors....as a tribute
I knew I recognized that gesture.
All this time I thought it was just a snarky goodbye wave but damn if you aren't right. Never got that.
I still mimic the gesture to this day
These was the best scene of all times the chills when he light’s up the flaming crow is just wow!!!!
Epic scene. Brandon Lee totally owned this one.
joliecide I agree but it wasn’t Brandon in this scene unfortunately. It was filmed with a double hence the no dialogue coming from Eric. The shots of his face were edited in and were from unused/deleted footage
Chad Stahelski no less.
The real question is was the real Brandon lee in any of this movie or was the whole movie made with a body double ????
Kris Sharma hell no.. He took most of the parts except some minor ones
@@pavelbombic456 so I guess Brandon was already a goner when they did this scene...
That moment when Eric lights the lighter and the fire makes the crow I get goosebumps everytime
1:39 Eric looks so scary here
This still gets me to the day , epic
A masterpiece, I understand they wanted to make a remake or something but this will be forever the one and only
This scene is perfection.
That scene always gimme chills. ♡
Same here, no matter how many times I watch it. 😢
It was tbird the way his voice was breaking up
this scene is the pinnacle of the movie IMO. That moment of recollection when past wrongs were realised, T-Bird knew he was about to die
Sting and diamond Dallas page had some great segments/fights back in WCW 🔥
Brandon Lee will always be The Crow. The rest of the sequels were sh*t especially the 4th installation
As far as im concerned, there is only 1 crow movie, and its this one
Second and third were pretty good, alex especially( third crow) i feel like is the closest to Eric Draven.None of the movies were as good as the first tho because none had Brandon
I've been watching this every Halloween since it's release. Such a underrated movie. No one will ever capture the same atmosphere as Brandon did 🌹

The Punisher and also Daredevil to be exact.
What you doing to T-Bird?
