One thing I admire about Cliff is how content he is with what he has in life. The guy spends all day every day around his best friend whose clearly richer and more famous, and yet Cliff is this loyal friend, never acts jealous, never asks for more. He just seems completely comfortable with himself and his life lol
Yeah, it's a very Hollywood view of being, well, a loser. Pitt makes him so cool and charming and Tarantino paints such a romantic picture, you'd actually trade the guy's life for yours. But in reality, he'd be just running errands for Rick, pissed off in laundromats, waiting in traffic jams, lines in supermarkets, no money, no family, no social life, bad food, no healthcare, just lonely evenings in a trailer stinking of old beer, cigarettes and dog food.
@RidgeRunner the grass is always greener on the other side. In the end, you prefer stress and action and money and relevancy over obscurity. The peace of mind of Cliff's lifestyle the movie sells doesnt exist. That's the thing. If you are a bum living alone at his age, in a trailer...cheap food, cheap small bed, cheap small car, old torn clothes, no dental, no healthcare. The movie shows picturesque sparse moments from this life which make it seem like it is this way all week, all month, all year. That's how movies mess with people's heads. They create a picturesque reality and we all kinda sorta have it in our heads as our goal, we all strive for it, but it is just a collection of moments which ignore the real life. It is aecarrot dangling in front of us in our mind. It doesnt exist. It is just a dream to make us feel better in our reality. In reality we are all Rick Dalton pretending to others we are Cliff Booth and because some pretend it really well, we think somewhere it exists. When in fact those who live like this in reality are usually dumb, irritating and they dont even know better which is not how people like you can function. If you are a president (which I doubt honestly, presidents dont make comments like this:)), kids, family, a lot of stuff to do. Good money. That's as good as it gets for normal people with some brain. Enjoy that.
@@PiCheZvara watching movies always trying to look through the cracks of the fiction into some kind of realism is so cringe. He's a modern cowboy/samurai archetype, simple. His character's purpose is to contrast rick who only pretends to be those things.
Tarantino has a talent for making food/beverage scenes oddly satisfying This & the alcohol drinks Strudel scene - Inglourious Basterds Beer scene - Django Unchained
Love how there's that moment where Cliff pauses for a second before selecting the second can of food. As though, despite its presentation and within reason, he's putting thought into Brandy's meal.
@@monfoxtrot3123 Funny thing is, I became a dog owner about a month after posting this comment, after never having been one before. We don't feed him canned food, but I definitely take some care with his dinner and want him to eat well. 😁
happy to hear it, every dog needs a home! its not always about the specific diet. you feed your dog what you can but remember a dog needs a home love and a companion so thats the most important thing! dont let people tell you what you should do with your best friend, just keep them safe and do you! :)@@michaelairton3723
I have 5 dogs and we’re good but look I will die sooner because I drink allot of coke and Pepsi so why can’t my dogs have just a bit of the same guilty pleasure?just saying if they live 15 sad years but 10 really good years they will be happy and me too I’m I wrong?
Brad Pitt has a way of playing these care free, no attachment characters that makes me want to sell all of my things and travel. Benjamin Button, Fight Club, Legends of the Fall, A River Runs Through It, Seven Years in Tibet and now this film. All of them give me that feeling.
This is the mark of a fantastic director. He can take a scene of a man making dinner for himself and his dog and make it thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish
Yeah, I don't think that was really high quality dog food, based on the fact that the cans he selected were 'Rat Flavor' and 'Raccoon Flavor'. (I paused it to try and get a look at the other cans on the shelf, but I could only make out 'Bird Flavor'.)
Yeah any guy who lived alone in his pad would relate to this. 1. We do not cleaning dishes a lot 2. In fact, who needs dishes. I prepare one of those instant stir fried noodles and just eat it right out of the pan 3. The fridge is always empty except for the must-haves, like beer, your favorite condiment, and a sandwich spread 4. It do not matter how small the place is, as long as you got a comfortable couch
The novelisation reveals Cliff has had Brandy for four years. A guy owed Cliff $3200, but instead of pay it, he introduced Cliff to Brandy, a fighting dog. They entered her into fights and won them all, until she got badly hurt. The guy planned on putting her in another fight while she was still hurt and then bet on the other dog to win. Cliff instead snapped the guys neck, dumped the body, and vowed never to make Brandy fight again. Thus, they are now inseparable.
Ah, you’re leaving out the detail that Cliff, when broke, made her fight twice. But since that last time he vowed never to do it again. So yeah, just that little detail
Aaahh very neat to see ya'll enjoyed the book as well ^_^ the book is incredible to me and i think deserves more attention, true definition of a book making the movie 10 times better (not that it already isn't a masterpiece)
@@innag6888 I noticed that also..I gagged thinking of that smell...my dog loves to eat cat shit but is picky as hell when it comes to what dog food we buy...makes no sense.
@@delilasloan8914 lol! that's one of the reasons i don't have a dog. I love dogs but I don't know if I'd be able to respect a dog who eats shit. (I have OCD)
I absolutely love this scene. This whole scene reminds me of when I return home from work, I get to watch TV, make dinner or lunch, and then lay back on the reclining chair.
In the book, brandys backstory is she’s the Muhammad Ali of dogfights. A guy who owed cliff a lot of money brought Brandy to him to help get out of a debt by fighting Brandy. Being a muscular, hulking pit bull was enough to wreak havoc on the hippies, but that explains why she’s SO good at it.
Notice that Cliff's tongue double-click is essentially Brandy's "NOW" command, and Cliff trusts her to do what needs to be done, be it finally eating her food or ripping the shreds out of homicidal.hippies.
I love how in this scene they establish the dog food can is heavy as fuck, so when Cliff uses it to brain Sadie in the finale you know it would hit like a lead brick.
Funny thing about heavy foods too, Cliff is drinking condensed milk before the fight with Bruce, he puts it down on a metal thing he's sitting on, and you can HEAR him put it down
I know what you mean before my parents got good jobs we lived in a trailer for a handful of years so this Scene just gives me a warm feeling of coziness
The female dog has a penis. Tarantino clearly took a page from Kubrick's the shining when making this movie and included tons of subliminal little inconsistencies to fuck with peoples heads.
This isn’t a pitbull, it’s a bully mix. And real APBT genetics are to kill animals, they are working dogs not pets. Bully mixes however can be great pets.
It's a pretty crucial scene to the movie in order to give the audience that perspective into Cliffs home life, if anything to see how different it is from Rick's and the rest of Hollywood...but mostly to build character
This is my favorite scene in that entire movie. Living back then was SO much more laid back. Eating Mac and Cheese from a pot, Your TV had 3-4 channels,. no internet, no cellphones, you listened to FM radio when they used to play a WHOLE album, and not crap music, GOOD music, you had paperback books to read instead of your smartphone, simple life, but in my opinion, people were way happier.
Good Food for Mean Dogs. Rat and racoon flavored. Q is the epitome (pronounced Epi-Tome) of genius. He completely captures what it was like in LA at that time. The shops and theaters in Westwood looked exactly like that. The bus signs and local DJs on the radio were what nailed it for me. One thing he got wrong though, there were no bicycle lanes in that era; no white lines by the curb.
One of the great joys of my young life was seeing a cylinder of dog food slide out its can, wholly intact, like that. No fuss, no muss. This scene brings back pleasant memories.
I’m no Cliff booth but I was in army fought in wars in two countries Cliff was a Vietnam vet and I also lived in a mobile home valise enough with my white pit bull max aka maxi my best bud very well trained just didn’t like a lot of people he was abused and there was no way he was allowing someone to take me away from him . I gave him a loving home took him for river walks every day I lived in the white mountains of NH after my Afghanistan deployment. Well first I went to az took care of my dying moms for a year and before she died my niece had max and her boyfriend would hit him etc and she asked if I could watch him wile she found a new place to live. That dog stayed with me till the end and that was heartbreaking when he died crushed me .
Thing is, Brad has lived in both sides of that divide. So he doesn't need acting or training for, just a jog down memory lane. His Pikey role was even living lower, down by the river off that dignity Cliff still lives on, no matter how broke and down off Luck
A dog will always reflect who their Master Daddy or mommy is. Most savage dog I ever saw was a Lombard Mastiff in the 90's over the Austrian Southern Alps dispose of 2 wolves, in less than 5 minutes. The other 2 ran away.
@@AvenueD417that has to be an apbt.look how slender and thin its waist is.and the dog is overall on the smaller side compared to a bully who is bulkier
LOL his dog was so well trained, they didn't attack the dog food until Cliff gave the signal. We saw how that came in handy later on in the movie. I remember those days of eating boxed macaroni with cheese powder. Nothing tasted better but I put a little milk and butter in mine. Cliff was happy without them :D.
I remembered watching his old movie Se7en..!!! He stay with his wife, and 3 dogs inside an apartment, and he was so good with his dogs ... He must be a dog lover
I've met some when they were in their 50's and after. And all of them smoked compulsively, their health on their downward side failing them. But they all had in common a fearless, calm way about them, a never take any obstacles as impossible No answer. So radically opposite of what their children's generation reactions and results were after coming out off their Vietnam conflict involvement. Not sure why that discrepancy and difference. They had no longer "tours" but had to remain mobilized til WW2 ended, their enemy not a small nation but with larger capabilities, industrial weaponry, divisions numbers and over all terrains beyond jungles, over mountains, deserts, fjords, artic, maritime, islands, urban warfare. Vietnam was asymmetric in ALL ways. A bigger Ego's war, sort of a crushing wit's war why so shattering and drained so many off psychologically damaging. WW2 and Korea made harder Men. But off Vietnam many became shadows of men after. What went wrong? How they were received back at Home after. Their Time there, expectations? Their officers leadership, the civilians human resource placed in uniforms? They were a new generation, much different still than all after, all post generations notices them. They had it ALL, have been *having it All* for the last 50 years, *better than their parents* they were the first Baby boomers!!!! Those born after American Allies WON, growing not in the Night and Day different decades of the unstoppable Roaring 1920's and the all crumbling 1930's Depression, but growing up in the smooth unprecedented years of Post War abundance and growth, roads and suburbs, Prosperity and Wealth like not seen before, the growth of a Middle Class like never in History since Ancient Rome or Greece, to be the burger in the sandwich between the former Social Classes at the top and bottom (of The Poor) previously always the larger, by never less than 3 fourths of Society.
I could see Cliff as a centenarian, still living contentedly in his trailer, making himself mac & cheese, taking good care of Brandy II (or III or IV) watching TV, maybe an upgraded version with a DVD player so could he could still watch his favorite old shows, confused by all the streaming services, bewildered by phrases like "Netflix and chill", shaking his head at "kids today".
The most unreal thing about this great movie is not even Cliff and Brandy beating the shit out of the hippies and stoping the Manson murders. It's actually eating beer and mac'n cheese at night while watching TV and having Cliff's body!
Im reading the novelization. You can tell in the movie Cliff is dangerous but there’s always a chill vibe with him and he seems genuinely nice and caring despite it. Cliff in the book however I feel is slightly more abrasive and quite the fucking horn dog Jesus. I feel the movie made them much more likable and human than the book even though the book is good. I feel they’re two parallel dimensions. I’m adapting some of the novel into the movies canon in my head everytime I read. Because obviously the book is an altered reality so why shouldn’t the books reality be slightly altered for the movie version?
He a hollywood stuntman and lives a very comfortable and Humble life as a Bachelor.....see this shows you dont need to be living Luxury to be happy Cliff is very comfortable

Literally trying to train my pit to be the exact same way, he's a very smart puppy already I'm sure it will be easy!
Beer. Ciggies. Mac & cheese. TV dinner. Loyal dog next to me. Life is good.
Best movie doggo ever
Cliff doesn't need a luxurious home and a fancy car, as long as he has television, cigarettes, beer, mac & cheese and his dog.
The Mannix episode shown here is “Death in a Minor Key,” which aired on February 8, 1969.
SUPER favorite scene!!❤
Brad Has His Dog Well Trained💪💪💪
I’m saying where do I get my dog trained like that
I remembered watching his old movie Se7en..!!! He stay with his wife, and 3 dogs inside an apartment, and he was so good with his dogs ... He must be a dog lover
That dog food.... slide... sliiide... slide... Plets! 😁 reminds me to einsten from back to the future
Kudos to Tarintino for making a terrible diet look so goddamn cool
Tarantino made dog food look delicious lol
Every poor man’s dream to live in a trailer with his dog ❤️😊😂
I love the dog
Besides Cliff Brandy is my favorite character in this movie .
Brandy is the best and most loyal bitch in this film. Cliff is in good paws. Deep respect for her and her Master Daddy
THE MAN'S CAVE
Greatest scene in movie history
Brandy is so cute ❤️ 🐶
If WW2 vet Cliff is still alive, he is near 100 today
I've met some when they were in their 50's and after. And all of them smoked compulsively, their health on their downward side failing them. But they all had in common a fearless, calm way about them, a never take any obstacles as impossible No answer. So radically opposite of what their children's generation reactions and results were after coming out off their Vietnam conflict involvement. Not sure why that discrepancy and difference. They had no longer "tours" but had to remain mobilized til WW2 ended, their enemy not a small nation but with larger capabilities, industrial weaponry, divisions numbers and over all terrains beyond jungles, over mountains, deserts, fjords, artic, maritime, islands, urban warfare. Vietnam was asymmetric in ALL ways. A bigger Ego's war, sort of a crushing wit's war why so shattering and drained so many off psychologically damaging. WW2 and Korea made harder Men. But off Vietnam many became shadows of men after. What went wrong? How they were received back at Home after. Their Time there, expectations? Their officers leadership, the civilians human resource placed in uniforms? They were a new generation, much different still than all after, all post generations notices them. They had it ALL, have been *having it All* for the last 50 years, *better than their parents* they were the first Baby boomers!!!! Those born after American Allies WON, growing not in the Night and Day different decades of the unstoppable Roaring 1920's and the all crumbling 1930's Depression, but growing up in the smooth unprecedented years of Post War abundance and growth, roads and suburbs, Prosperity and Wealth like not seen before, the growth of a Middle Class like never in History since Ancient Rome or Greece, to be the burger in the sandwich between the former Social Classes at the top and bottom (of The Poor) previously always the larger, by never less than 3 fourths of Society.
I could see Cliff as a centenarian, still living contentedly in his trailer, making himself mac & cheese, taking good care of Brandy II (or III or IV) watching TV, maybe an upgraded version with a DVD player so could he could still watch his favorite old shows, confused by all the streaming services, bewildered by phrases like "Netflix and chill", shaking his head at "kids today".
All a man needs to be happy.
A good dog
Some good old fashioned food
And some good tv
This is just great.
When a men and his dog don't need anymore shit in life to be happy, just be.
The most unreal thing about this great movie is not even Cliff and Brandy beating the shit out of the hippies and stoping the Manson murders.
It's actually eating beer and mac'n cheese at night while watching TV and having Cliff's body!
I could watch Cliff cook for hours.
The fact the dog’s food is of higher quality than his own…
"Summer gonna be lit!"
Also me all summer:
0:48 When he open the can that reminds me of drinking and opening a sunkrist blueberry lemonade
The pinup girl on the wall is actress Anne Francis.
Rat and Racoon flavored dog food lmao excellent. Showing dominance to the dog is what a dog 'wants'
The most relatable dinner in movie history! Kraft in the pot without any milk
I love how Cliff can command his dog.
My dog would never obey me like that.
Thats because you are a bad dog owner and your dog has ZERO respect for you. Thats all.

I wish I could be as cool as cliff
I am
Im reading the novelization. You can tell in the movie Cliff is dangerous but there’s always a chill vibe with him and he seems genuinely nice and caring despite it. Cliff in the book however I feel is slightly more abrasive and quite the fucking horn dog Jesus. I feel the movie made them much more likable and human than the book even though the book is good. I feel they’re two parallel dimensions. I’m adapting some of the novel into the movies canon in my head everytime I read. Because obviously the book is an altered reality so why shouldn’t the books reality be slightly altered for the movie version?
QT wrote the book after the movie was made
@@dmcrun3572 I know. Did a good job too.
Feel the same way it feels like he turned a 180 in the book
He a hollywood stuntman and lives a very comfortable and Humble life as a Bachelor.....see this shows you dont need to be living Luxury to be happy Cliff is very comfortable
definitely
Nobody mentioned how difficult it is to discipline a hungry dog.
This scene is far from filler. It makes a later brutal scene seem far more realistic. I love QT movies to there core.
