    My favorite part of this movie is the background details, like Miles hanging a Rothko upside-down because he knows it's a notable art piece but he doesn't understand the meaning. And in the case of Mona Lisa: the original Mona Lisa was painted on wood, not canvas, so I think it's hilarious to imagine that the Louvre knew Miles was an idiot and instead of loaning him the real Mona Lisa, they loaned him a copy and made him pay out the ass for insurance and transport costs. 😂

      But I would've loved if they took it a step further and acted like he really did destroy the real one. Then years later, after his empire had fallen and all the court cases were settled, they'd come out with "Oh wait! Someone did switch them out!", thereby letting themselves off the hook for lending the "real" one. Everyone wins!

The puzzles wouldn’t have been solved by any of them on their own, they all knew to call someone smarter than them (except for Lionel who didn’t have someone smarter now that Andi was out of the group) for help. If you add up all the puzzles figured out by non-group members, more of them were solved by “outsiders” than the “disrupters” themselves. Additionally, the box and the puzzles inside were not a reflection of Miles’s genius, as he had them made by a third party. It’s a all a reflection of one of the movie’s themes; that success, fame, and money are nothing more than a glass onion themselves, that if you looked beyond those layers many of the most “successful” people are not special at all, and many of them are just idiots.

    I'm of the considered opinion that you should never judge a movie or book or whatever until you've gone through it twice. The first time clears away your expectations, and the second time allows you to fully judge the movie based on what it is instead of what you thought it would be. Never has that been more important than with "Knives Out" and "Glass Onion", two movies that **promise** you one type of mystery and deliver a completely different one.

When I saw this sentence written out my first thought was you can't use the "we can make more" as a justification/consolation for destroying/losing something. And then I was reminded that in the olden days, at least where I'm from, when child mortality was very high, if you had a boy, Nicholas let's say, that died as an infant, you would give the name Nicholas to your next son that was born and hoped this one lived. So... I... guess... you're... right...? we... can... make... more...? It's a tough one! Loved the video, by the way!

      However, it seems the art world, and particularly the art market, has really managed to make us all believe that Art is very much more valuable than it truly is. Untouchable. Unquestionably important. More deserving of protection than life, including human lives.
      It doesn't go as far as protecting artists' lives of course, unless they've become very famous and bankable; and it doesn't grant access to the masses, no it must remain elitist, but the masses must understand it's greatness nevertheless.

    When you rewatch it, you realize what Helen does at the end is exactly what Miles describes in his disruptor speech, esp. about pushing things "too far"... That she becomes a radical agent of changing the system/status quo, instead of just challenging it as in the hopeful ending to "Knives Out" (which I still like!) is why I like "Glass Onion" a bit more...it's more rocknroll! It's also funnier. I love lots of the details: like Hugh Grant is Blanc's husband (yes, really! confirmed by Craig & Johnson), Pynchon's "Gravity's Rainbow" comes back as the book Serena Williams is reading, Miles at one point is dressed like Tom Cruise's character from "Magnolia"....It's a fun time!

    I think the Benoit Blanc franchise is brilliant because it’s an unabashed homage to classic mysteries ala Agatha Christie (I’m thinking of Hercule Poirot mysteries in particular). The eccentric detective with the accent who often plays dumb to get people to underestimate him is just so Poirot, and the mysteries themselves are very classic stereotypes - the closed room mystery in the big old family house with the bickering family in Knives Out, and the revenge murder during an exotic vacation in Glass Onion. I don’t mind predictability as long as you’re being clear that this is a play on classic mysteries, and I think this series does that brilliantly. Loved the reaction!

    Fun Fact: There IS actually a second Mona Lisa. It's a painting that is almost exactly the same, except for some other colours used. For a long time, people thought a student of DaVinci painted it because it was clearly from his period. But then a psychologist from Germany did some measurements and the difference between the perspective of the two paintings is 7cm, which is the distance between your two eyes. You can't achieve this slight shift by copying the Mona Lisa or even by sitting next to DaVinci while he painted - the only way this could happen is him painting two paintings, always with one eye closed. They also found the same corrections of the layers underneath on both paintings which strengthens the theory...

Though my take from the fall of Troy story isn't so much that she started the war by running off with Paris, more that various Greek Kings had wanted to invade Troy for some time and her running off with him provided them with a perfect excuse (Robert Graves wrote in his telling of the myths that her father had insulted Aphrodite in some way and so she vowed to make both his daughters famous for their infidelity, and Helen being an unusually beautiful woman made things a whole lot easier for her), either way we can say that the minute Helen (both in the myth of Troy and in this story) arrived on the scene she started the whole narrative. She looked great rising from the flames as well.

    For those who don’t know, the person in the top right of the FaceTime is legendary broach composer Stephen Sondheim who composed Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, and many more including Follies, which is where the song Blanc sang in the car in Knives Out (Losing My Mind) is from. And Angela Lansbury (who worked with Sodheim) is the actress who played in Murder She Wrote, which was also in Knives Out. This movie was released less than a year after Sondheim died, and about a month before Lansbury died. When I watched this movie, I cried when I saw them.

    You guys did better than I did at guessing who did it. I genuinely had no clue until I noticed that Miles gave Duke his glass and then the movie made me think I’d imagined that. I would say I prefer Knives Out but I agree with Rizzo that this movie probably grows on you with each rewatch.

    The 1st clue that Miles is a buffoon..Is when they all first meet at the Glass Onion. Miles is dressed like Tom Cruz's character in the movie Magnolia. That character was an obvious parody of toxic masculinity culture. Not someone "cool" to emulate. Of course, that joke would go right over Miles's head. I didn't realize why his outfit and hairstyle looked so familiar until I watched the movie the 2nd time. Kudos to the director for dropping such a subtle clue.

  • @agenttheater5
    @agenttheater5 Год назад +7

    26:16 Greek reference 4 - don't know if she's more like Eris, goddess of discord and strife who, as her title suggests, pretty much brings chaos everywhere she goes (she was the one who threw the golden apple with the words 'for the fairest' into a crowd of the gods which started Hera, Athena and Aphrodite arguing over she should get it which led to the Judgement of Paris which led to the Trojan war just because she wasn't invited to the wedding most of the other gods were invited to), or Nemesis, goddess of vengeance and divine retribution - she'll grant you revenge against someone IF she feels it's justified but it has to balance out what they did to you (meaning it has to be exactly 'an eye for an eye' but if you take an eye, and ear and a nostril for an eye then the balance is out of whack and you'll have to pay for it) and is basically there to make sure that people reap what they sow and don't just get free handouts.
    Helen basically just brought chaos to the island and made the whole lot of them pay for their selfishness, greed, deceit and cowardliness. And since she was the only one who suffered the death of a loved one I guess it balances out everything she did.

    1. the process of claiming something back or of reasserting a right
    2. the cultivation of waste land or land formerly under water.
    So like Blanc said, it's a word but it's not the right word.
    Also turns out circumspective means: given to or marked by circumspection; watchful; cautions.
    So again, by no means the right word.

    Fun facts:
    The mona lisa is only as famous and valuable as it is because it was almost stolen and got hyped up in media and pop culture...
    It's actually not best or greatest painting, it only has value because of its notoriety and the fact Divinci painted it
    The painting is overhyped much like Miles
    Miles knew of Dukes allergy because he would have asked for dietary and allergy issues bedorehand to cater for the group
    When Blanc leaves before the house blows up
    He grabs Daryll so he's not caught in the explosion which is why they are sitting together at the end watching the onion implode.
    Also At the end, the gang turn on Miles not just because he's finished
    But to defend the sister, Helen.
    Miles could have just blamed her for everything and have the others lie for him again like they did against her sister
    Which would have benfited them
    Instead they threaten to testify about all of Miles crimes, so she is protected as well.
