    Yes Leo did really cut himself by accident in the dinner table scene, but before he smeared his hand over Kerry Washington's face, the scene was cut to treat his hand and to use fake blood for that part. In these times there's no way that an actor would be allowed to rub real human blood over another actor's face and mouth.

    This, and Inglorious Bastards are my favorite Tarantino films, and 2 of my favorite movies in general. Christoph Waltz's performances in both of those films are SO amazing, even though his characters are basically complete opposites. Everyone in this film absolutely killed it, and I've been so excited to see your reaction to this movie. Love it, keep up the fantastic work Oscar! And congratulations again on 10k subs, here's to 10k more and then 100k

    Ach! I had to step out of the theatre during the mandingo fight the first time I saw it. But I do love the performances in this. Waltz is one of my favorite actors, so I hope you get the chance to see more of his work.
    The shot of the woman being yanked out of frame after Django shot her is a nod to the old westerns where they didn't show women being shot on screen.

    You haven't seen the Kill Bill movies yet??? Oh man, BEST FEMALE LED ACTION MOVIES EVER MADE. The music is A+, Uma Thurman plays the part PERFECTLY, and one part is so bloody that they had to go black and white to avoid a NC-17 restriction that would keep it out of theaters. A heartless, calculated massacre born of heartfelt retribution and the wrath of a woman scorned. Those are 2 of the best films I have ever seen, with enough twists and perfect writing to keep you glued to your seat and thinking of it for hours afterwards. You've GOT to see them, I know you love Tarantino

    What's impressive about Christoph Waltz performance in this and Inglourious Basterds is that he's playing two polar opposite characters and nails them both, which isn't an easy thing to do as an actor, and we see that with a lot of actors, which more or less play the same kind of role from movie to movie and it's remarkable he wasn't discovered sooner.

    Quentin Tarantino worked on a sequel which unfortunately was never made. They eventually turned the unused Script into a Graphic Novel. It is called Django & Zorro. It teams up an older Zorro with Django to free a town from an Evil Dictator. I read it and It would have made a great movie.

    What bothers me is why Doctor Schultz shot Calvin, given his meticulous planning beforehand and intelligence, he should have known all they worked for would go to waste.
    Also, my other interpretation is that just like before when that kKK gang weren't letthig them leave even after business was conducted legally - I think he knew Calvin was much worse monster, and he knew he just wouldn't let them leave no matter what - and so he wanted to make sure he was killed before the inevitable.

    • @lilscenechick1995
      @lilscenechick1995 7 месяцев назад

      I think Schultz refused to shake Calvin’s hand because he wasn’t about to dignify him like that. He was so beyond disgusted with everything he witnessed, being expected to shake hands was the last straw. It was definitely an impulsive and unwise decision to shoot Calvin, but, it was serving justice in Schultz’ mind. I wish he didn’t because I would’ve preferred him to live, but storytelling wise it was brilliant.

    The acting is AMAZING (why tf did Leo not get nominated??), the script is amazing, the story is basically perfect….
    I know basically everyone is aware, but when Calvin Candie screams and the men barge in, DiCaprio hit his hand on the table and ACTUALLY broke a real glass, and had to get stitches….. but, he acted through the scene with a shattered hand, in character, and improvised the blood on Brumhilde’s face too…. It’s kinda like Vigo Mortensen actually breaking his toe while kicking the helmet thing 😂😂😂 I LOVE this film

    • @thecocoacouch
      @thecocoacouch  7 месяцев назад +1

      Paul never condoned slavery, but at this point in history, slavery was no where near as bad as it got later on. Paul also in the same passage talks about masters treating their slaves fairly and kindly (much like a boss in a workplace should to their employees). I think it’s important to know that on top of all this, lessons were taught to work within the context of the time and simply love was encouraged above all else regardless of the social norms. (Also fyi the whole fear and trembling had a different meaning in Hebrew and actually meant more of a respect and reverence) not nearly as bad as we would interpret today. I think we should all go to bible college to understand the word more hey!!

    • @thecocoacouch
      @thecocoacouch  10 месяцев назад +3

      I believe Paul wrote this because in the context of that time, uprooting the “system” would cause anarchy and destruction but rather encourages masters to see their servants as equals and for there to be respect and fair treatment between them (he does not encourage the actual act of slavery). And of course the New Testament provides new ways of living that make a lot of what is commanded in the Old Testament obsolete. In the context of the film, evil men like this just use old scripture out of context to assert their own selfish beliefs.

      And sorry, just to piggyback a bit, I also believe the conditions of slavery in Ephesus at that time were not the same as the time of slavery in this film, so I would agree the context of that time plays a factor of that verse. And yeah, it says a little later in that passage that masters should not threaten their slaves and they should be treated the same as them, which is something people with a mentality like the people in this movie chose to apparently ignore.

    There are so many layers upon layers upon layers in Tarantino's dialogue and scenes in every movie. He sets up Dr. Shultz to despise Calvin Candie before he even meets him. Shultz is intelligent, patient, calm, compassionate, sophisticated, and brimming with self-control. Calvin Candie is the OPPOSITE of all of those things. Calvin is a Francophile who doesn't speak French and knows nothing about the actual culture, outside of the most surface-level attributes. Dr. Shultz speaks French and has ACTUAL knowledge of the culture, down to the fact that Alexandre Dumas was a Black man. Calvin Candie indulges in sweets to the point of letting his teeth rot: Dr. Shultz is a dentist. Calvin is cruel and impatient: Shultz is kind and knows how to wait. Calvin is ignorant AND stupid: Shultz is well-informed and intelligent. Calvin has the audacity to give a lecture on a known pseudoscience, even at that time, TO AN ACTUAL DOCTOR. In parlor, he was forced to listen to Beethoven (as a German) while this disgusting puke of a man revels in his own repulsive behavior. The tension between the two was building in the dialogue and scenes, even leading up to their first encounter. By the end, Dr. Shultz just couldn't take it anymore. He felt that Calvin had to die by his hand, even if it meant losing his own life. I think Dr. Shultz knew that Django could handle everything on his own by then. He was right. ❤
