CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Butler (Hugh Millais) and his posse let it be known to John McCabe (Warren Beatty) that they are in town 'to hunt bear,' not to negotiate.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Memorably described by Pauline Kael as "a beautiful pipe dream of a movie," Robert Altman's McCabe & Mrs. Miller reimagines the American West as a muddy frontier filled with hustlers, opportunists, and corporate sharks -- a turn-of-the-century model for a 1971 America mired in violence and lies. John McCabe (Warren Beatty) wanders into the turn-of-the-century wilderness village known as Presbyterian Church, with vague plans of parlaying his gambling winnings into establishing a fancy casino-brothel

Such a great scene this. The hopelessness of McCabe when it is setting in is so good.
"Only when they can't make a deal.." So well delivered.
@FlyingGold: Only when they can't impose a "deal" would be more accurate.
The acting in this is just mesmerising. The tension is palpable. Its like you're there!!
This is the first ever acting job of the guy that plays Butler. What a presence on screen!
Yeah, Hugh Millais later also played a baddie in 'The Dogs of War' with Christopher Walken.
and did it with a texas accent! altman went mad! if id wanted a cowboy id have hired one! millais redubbed his scenes with his british accent.
Hugh Millais deserved a Best Supporting Actor nomination for this role which was his first after being discovered by Altman.
I love the power plays and use of tension and dominance in this scene. Love those little cutaways to Auberjonois reaction shots too the movie goes out of its way to make him look like a weasel
What a scene! I love Warren Beatty's performance here - and 'Butler', what a menacing presence!
I think he was there to make a deal, with the terms rather different. Leave town immediately and you get to live.
Bounty Hunter: "I dont make deals".
McCabe: "Well, i am screwed".
the Bounty hunter Butler is played by British author and chef Hugh Millais, this was his first acting role at aged 42 and it came about by a chance meeting in a bar in Spain with a rep of Robert Altman who thought he would be good in the role, he was invited to meet Altman in England who offered him the part of Butler. When shooting started Millais adopted a phoney Texas accent believing that would suit the character....Altman halted filming and said, " if I wanted an American villain I would have hired Lee Marvin, speak with you natural accent!"..... I think the British accent just adds to the menace of the character, Butler is quite a terrifying individual, he has that Oliver Reed type of well spoken English over politeness that suggests extreme violence and murderous intent!!! It is a great performance by Millais, I think he makes quite an impression in his first acting role.
Absolutely! He's a nice contrast and blend of McCabe himself and Mrs Millers characteristics but cranked to 11. His performance here is so sarcastic and sassy he almost reminds me of Eddie Izzard or a comedic performance.
"who the hell was this Bill Roundtree: hahaha
It was me. But I never marked the queens!
any time someone asks you what you're doing say "I came up here to hunt bear!" in that accent.
Originally butker was supposed to have a Texan accent, but Hugh's natural English accent just works!
Butler is such a great villain. Just like Christoph Waltz's characters - articulate and polite on the surface, but with hints of menace lurking underneath. So great
The best scene in one fantastic Altman film.
Best scene is the bridge scene IMO.
My take is that McCabe probably did kill Roundtree, but that it was most likely a messy, spur of the moment thing and nothing to really brag about. Like he didn’t QuickDraw him or anything; he just got lucky. And so he’s been trying to bury that reputation to avoid getting into any more gunfights, which he doesn’t really have the stomach for.
We see in the final encounter that McCabe is essentially flying by the seat of his pants and barely scraping by. He runs, hides, and then shoots two of his enemies in the back rather than trying to outshoot them face to face like in a more traditional western. And then in the end he has to play dead and surprise Butler up close to land that last shot with the derringer.
McCabe was no gunslinger; just a gambler whose lucky streak ran out.
@Kontarek: He could have run once he figured out that the Butler group was a hit team and not a group of negotiators but he chose to gamble with his life to keep his businesses.
@@dpeaseheadThat’s a good point. The desire to keep what was his outweighed any fears he may have had.
@@Kontarek Yeah, I can see how starting over from scratch in the wilderness when you are no longer the youngest and flashiest and most charismatic man around would be pretty scary.
Could not wait to see that kid get it.
Butler is an Epic baddie. Apparently this was his first acting roll.
he was in IMAGES altmans other movie
@@tonywords6713 yes I've seen that. Odd movie! He should have done more👍
Such a sad and depressing film. But so damn realistic.
Mesmerising from the actor who played Butler. So charismatic.
A very underestimated Western film.
Beatty's best performance.
By far.
"My best friend's best friend was Bill Roundtree ....." So awesome.
Like Shaft, like Smarties...
"Oh get off it! C'yaw! *snort* [audible nose whistle] Hmph... Bear!"
Great film and great villain. And McCabe was an interesting character. Butler says that McCabe never killed anyone. Yet in the end he sure did. The film did a great job making McCabe ambiguous. Was it that his reputation was unfounded as implied in this scene? I think rather that his reputation was deserved but that he had tried to leave it behind and that Butler misjudged him, which he paid for.
Sheehan claimed Roundtree was shot with a derringer.....and McCabe shot Butler with one
I reckon he hadn't killed anyone before the ending. He didn't look very comfortable and barely got by
Hadeed.....I doubt that was the filmmakers' intention. They put up a lot of effort to maintain 'realism' rather than heroism or myth-making . McCabe stalking and killing these professional killers is sheer fantasy if he hadn't done anything like that before. Makes a lot more sense if he WAS a gunfighter in another time and place, just as the rumors say.
@@hadeed-_-5678 That was my takeaway as well. And ScreenRant agrees with us: "Robert Altman called McCabe & Mrs. Miller an “anti-western,” because it deliberately subverts all the conventions of the western genre. It’s not about a lawman’s quest for justice or a gunslinger’s search for a hefty bounty; it’s about a gambler who opens a brothel. Instead of baking in the blistering heat of the desert, the characters are buried in snow. *Instead of a heroic gunslinger, the leading man is a coward who lies about his reputation to get ahead.* Instead of facing his opponents in a duel in the middle of town, McCabe engages them in a cat-and-mouse chase."
@@louisnewton4292 I disagree . McCabe had probably been in some scrapes before but he didn’t like them . He definitely wasn’t a Marksman Shootist like that blond haired kid but I think McCabe had a past as a very deadly , stealthy Warrior when pushed and he proved it in the end and Butler did underestimate him .
That man never killed anybody.
Yet he killed the man who says that in the end
"Not with me."
Game over, charlatan.
I'm scared of this guy
Scared? Of whom?
An English gentleman?
Ridiculous.
as Butler searches for McBabe near the end, the coat & hat hide any signs of his human form .... this gives an ominous BEAR "stalking" slow & stealthy dynamic .... " then you really weren't that far off?" line rings true
But Big, bad Butler was wrong, wasn't he?
Even if he didn't get a cross either.
JOHN WAS TRULY A FRIGHTHING KILLER.
It's a pity the final scene left the audience in midair. One of the production team admitted it hurt the box office and that if they could do it again they'd do it different to tidy up the loose end.
What Lmao Altman was coming off of MASH I can promise you he didn't care about some stupid box office. Especially when the ending is central to the themes of the story.
"My best friend's best friend was Bill Roundtree."
