This man has one of the best filmographies of any young actors working right now. Drive, half nelson, La la land, The nice guys, Lars and the real girl, blade runner and now first man. So intelligent and picky
They're both awesome, I just personally prefer Ryan because of his chemistry with his female costars (Emma, Rachel, Michelle) He is equally amazing at romance, not just drama.
@@mehakm5709 I agree that he's like the best at potraying romantic roles on screen..dude can pull of a strong chemistry with anyone...yaa I mentioned in the 1st comment that his speciality is romance..but still I feel like he isn't the best choice for playing this character
Bruce Wayne So, as any self-respecting woman, who was in the beginning of her 20’s, I of course love the Notebook, sappy, overly melodramatic and all. Now, as a general movie buff, he should never have made that movie, knowing today how it has stamped his whole career and labeled him as an actor, to people who have not necessarily watched other than his most known movies. He’s made 24 movies (shorts and documentaries non-included), only 3 of them are proper romance movies (the Notebook, Crazy Stupid Love, La La Land). Blue Valentine and Drive are difficult to label. Blue Valentine is about love, but a drama. The first half is peachy romance, the second pure, raw drama and couldn’t be further from a romance movie. Drive is a love story but not a romance movie. Among the rest of his movies, a few have a romantic scene or 2, but romance is not the subject of the movie. So maybe it’s, as you both mention, because of his chemistry with his leading ladies that people think that’s his thing. He’s actually made more indie movies than Hollywood movies, playing weirdos, psychopaths, killers and drug addicts. Brilliant movies most of them. His first leading role was as a Neo-Nazi, who you find out actually is Jewish but hates it and nobody knows, The Believer (American History X style). So he’s really versatile, but for some reason pegged as the dreamy romantic actor. A shame. Sorry for the looooong comment, just found both of yours interesting, so figured you wouldn’t mind. 😄
First Man was so beyond a movie. I had the most emotional response to it several times all for different reasons.. It's an experience. It's the most riveting film I have ever seen in the theater.
Same dude, it wasnt as good as interstellar was for me but it was still a good 9/10. Id take this than any of the other movies in the theater right now anyday.
I was 11 years old, sitting in front of the TV when Armstrong and Aldrin landed on the moon. Without a doubt, it was the most memorable moment in my life. I was an aviation fan before and after, and I knew full well, what Armstrong was in the world of aviation. Neil Armstrong is the biggest hero I have ever had in my life.
Same here, Brabham74. I was ten. It was the first time I had seen adults outside of my family cry. All my teachers were in tears. We had been gathered in our school library to watch the landing. An amazing experience. A time of euphoria where we thought we would be landing on Mars before the end of the 70s. So sad the fire went out in the US government's determination to keep exploring.
Get your facts right. Neil Armstrong was not an alcoholic. Aldrin had issues with alcohol which destroyed his first marriage. As for the lying, it happened bud, get over it.
Claire Foy is up for a nomination for sure. And Gosling as Neil...seems weird at first but he nailed the stoic part pretty well. I agree with critics on focusing on that too much, because Neil did have a somewhat dry sense of humor. Besides that, this movie should W I N every damn oscar there is for visuals and sound. The silence was tangible at times, absolutely fantastic. And good on you Ryan, it IS Geminee, not Gemin-aay!
Awesome movie. Saw first on Friday and again last night at the Air & Space Museum IMAX. Worth it. The cinematography and sound will make you feel YOU'RE an astronaut.
This movie is not a story telling about a trip to the moon, it’s a rollercoaster of emotions that hits you deep in your guts about every bad, very bad, and very very bad mother f* things that could happen in a man’s life, while trying to conquer space exploration, and be the first ever at literally everything. Those men was definitely built differently….
Saw it last night. Loved it. Beautifully shot. One complaint. In seeking to emphasize the uncertainty of the missions I think the director went a little overboard with how he depicted the insides of the Gemini and Apollo capsules: dirty, used, grungy, rickety. These were state of the art machines kept in excellent shape by dedicated engineers and used once. So there was no need for dirt and grunge on the switches and controls, or dents in the sides of the spacecraft, or an engine bell that looked like something out of a steampunk fantasy. It was a cheap trick and not needed to get across the important theme of the risks these missions entailed. Apollo 13 got the capsules right.
@@Nautilus1972 No shit? You mean the numbers being in sequence means they did the missions in that sequence? Thanks for clearing that up. What's your point? You're saying that between 11 and 13 is when they figured out how to clean an instrument panel?
You ever see one of the actual capsules at a museum? They were very utilitarian. State of the art tech (for the time) but nonetheless very bare-bones spartan interior compared to modern aircraft today.They were indeed rickety during moments of the flight.
@@Wolficorntv True. They wasted no space and were the epitome of utilitarian design. But one thing they were not is grungy, dented, and/or dirty. No engineer, no pilot would allow their instrument panel to be in such poor shape. It would be an unnaceptable safety risk to not be able to accurately read a display, a gauge, or a dial; and any amount of dirt can create shorts in wiring. The men who built and maintained these things dressed like surgeons. But a panel that looks like it belonged on an old Farmall tractor would be acceptable?
well it's a great movie, if they went for authenticity, they certainly succeeded, and the cgi is great and it is filmed in year 60 styles, and POV film style is great too
Gonna see it for a third time this Saturday, but it was even more emotional the 2nd time around.. I wish I was alive to have witnessed everything. Hopefully we get our equivalent in landing on Mars within the next 2 decades.
I really loved this movie. I’m a pretty big Apollo nerd and I really appreciated the attention to detail. I think a lot of people go invest expecting a more broad experience like Apollo 13 but this movie is more intimate and I dig it. The Gemini 8 had me riveted even though I knew all about what happened and the Apollo 11 scenes are just beautiful, the music, the feel... when Neil throws his daughter’s bracelet in the crater I felt like I was right there with him.
As a pilot, flight instructor, and space flight nut, I’m ashamed to say that my first thought, when the credits rolled was, “what did I just watch?!” I think I was so taken aback by how intense the movie was, from the flying, to the friends, and to the family. It hit me a few days after that this film was a bit “to personal.” Sometimes I think it’s hard to understand us pilots. Why strap yourself into these machines (particularly THOSE machines), and potentially place yourself in such danger. Why do we do it? Sure, we love it, but there’s something else...that’s almost impossible to truly describe. This film captured “the why” without even stating it.
What blew me away about this movie was the Gemini launch. They scrap your ass to a rocket and it feels like you're inside. The noise and vibrations are scary. It seems like that rocket was going to break apart. It may me felt what these astronauts felt in the 60s doing these launches. I recommend watching it on a entertainment system preferably with Dolby Atmos if you have it.
johnulcer I haven't been doing much reading up but is a new Blade Runner in the works and would it be called 2059? SPOILERS AHEAD But didn't Gosling's character die in the end?
@@naughtydog201 Nothing's been announced. And while Gosling's character was "retired", there's absolutely an in-universe way for his character to return.
@@naughtydog201 ths movie did badly at the box office. So probably it won't have a sequel. Maybe when BR2049 becomes a cult classic. They think about making a new one, similar to what happened to the original.
The pen in the console was, as Neil Armstrong put it, insurance. He said he was pretty sure it would have held up anyway, but it's good to have a little insurance sometimes. There's a great interview with him on RUclips.
loopy emotional music stucks in your mind and drags you to behind the scenes, Neil's documentary and others. soundtrack based on only 1 2 melodies but full of emotions
Ryan Gosling will be one of the best male actors imo. So many 'hucksters" out there that think if they show up the director and editors will take care of the rest. Ryan knocked it out of the park with this one!!!! Good job Ryan!
I'm glad Ryan corrected the interviewer when the interviewer said "Gemini" as in Gem in eye. Back in the day, it was known as the Gemini "Gem in eeeeee" and Gosling made it clear to the interviewer that is the way it was pronounced. I don't know why we used the expression "Gem in eeee" back then, but that is the way NASA and the rest of us pronounced the word. Today, most people would say Gem en eye.
I remember watching the old NASA footage scratching me head at the way the astronauts would pronounce “Gemini.” When Gosling said it that way in the first ten minutes I must’ve smiled from ear to ear-they were going for authenticity.
First Man was a good movie. Not quite as good as Apollo 13 goes as far as a movie surrounding space flight, and the Apollo missions in particular but I don't really think First Man was trying to compete with Apollo 13 anyway. They took a lot of pride in trying to get things as realistic as possible with this film, and I LOVED that they used a first person perspective shot for the Gemini launch. How it looked like the audience was the one climbing into the capsule, looking at the instrument panel and then up through the small capsule window that's pointed skyward while the rocket is on the pad and lifting off. Great shots and it's something I wish more space related movies did while keeping it authentic at the same time as First Man did. That said, there were some over-gratuitous sound effects they used in this movie that didn't make much sense and I'm almost positive you wouldn't have heard those things. The sound of the gemini capsule spinning in Gemini 8, just used some weird sound effects to highlight it and in the real craft, they wouldn't have heard a damn thing because there's no atmosphere to carry sound waves. The only thing they'd hear inside the capsule would be themselves and electrical noises from the instrumental panel. Then during the launch scenes, they had a lot of sounds like metal shearing off, crinkling, the sort of sounds you'd think they'd use for a submarine passing through very deep depths or something. They would've been shaking violently during the first stage of the launch that is definitely true, but all I'm saying is some of the sound effects felt like a little too much. Other than that, it was a fantastic movie if you care deeply about the history of our space program, which I do. Ryan played Neil perfectly. He was a very no-nonsense, mission-objective oriented persion who showed his emotion only in private, in an introverted kind of way. Just the kind of person he was, but he could be playful and jovial in the company of his peers too. An American hero, who never really wanted to be, he just wanted to do his job and make sure the mission was successful. He hated the fame of it all, while others like Buzz enjoyed it very much. Two totally different people. I had no idea that Buzz seemed so crass with regards to the deaths of Lee and the Apollo 1 crew though, as they showed in this movie.
Wooow, chill dude.. it's not about political correctness.. it's all jokes and fun, No need to take it personally, well why am i still surprised.... it's 2018.
I'm chill bruh, i was talking to the dude that took my comment in a personal way "Canadians have the same right to brag they sent their people to the Moon as Amurricans do."
Question: "Do you think it will have an effect". Yes, it did. It rocked my world. But given I was an impressionable 6 year old at the time, it didn't just have and effect, what they did defined how I viewed the world. Not only at the time, but also afterwards. Now read that back in the voice of Walter Cronkite. You're welcome. (and if you're reading this, yet too young to know who he was, look it up.)
I am late to the party; just saw the movie on Netflix. It was easily the best movie I had seen in a long time. The expressed, but more often suppressed, emotions were overwhelming. Ryan was amazing and so was Claire Foy. I will definitely watch it again.
To me this was not a Hollywood flick and for that I loved it!! True to what happened with very slight liberties but all in all just epic. I can't wait to see it again!
I hated La La Land but loved this one. It's not a showy film but an intimate and sensitive portray of Armstrong, the great hero, as a man. Ryan is great as ever and so is Claire. If you want a flamboyant and patriotic Hollywood flick for children this is definitely not the right one. Adults - on board! I think Neil would have liked It.
I truly want to see this film, however, as Mr. Armstrong was such an intensely private individual, I will wait until the Blu Ray comes out and watch it in private. This movie honors the over 500,000 incredibly talented individuals who contributed to the accomplishment of a near impossible mission, and honored President Kennedy's commitment, and made that commitment, a reality. That dedication, by the way, caused many a divorce - it required complete dedication to the mission. I think too that that this movie would be dedicated (Were Mr. Armstrong still alive), to Virgil I "Gus" Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee who perished in the plugs out pad fire of Apollo 1 at 1831 hours, Florida time. - a day NONE of us will ever forget. And to the teams in the Houston Mission Control Center (MCC). Spaceflight will never tolerate carelessness, incapacity, and neglect. Grissom, White and Chafee did not die in vain. And finally, no one should ever forget the dedication, sacrifice and work done at Edwards AFB on the X programs and that of the Air Force Systems Command (AFSC) personnel and their families. Flight test is never without risk, and sometimes the ultimate sacrifice is paid by the pilot and their families.
You gotta point the antenna the right way. And it takes two seconds for the signal to reach the moon from earth and vice versa. A radio wave is not fragile, or slow.
6:38 Like the Cricket, and The first Man on the Moon... P.A.N. The song from the original Pinocchio movie. "Give A Little Whistle" and "Always Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide" as they were told by the Blue Fairy. A little tiny part but a warm one too :) AI

great to see a genuinely nice interviewer with intelligent and thought provoking questions for a movie star. Great segment.

You Weren't There. You're a completely useless #Soyboy #YOurMob is almost here. Better get moving.
Well said. I found the movie very moving.
Propaganda films usually try to tug at the heart strings.
I have not been able to see this movie yet. I hope to see it soon.
@@Truthavision So what? It works!
These videos are always great, the questions, the editing, the music, the chemistry. Always 10/10 content.
A lot of credit to Ali Plumb - ace interviewing.
Emotional impact still does not make it any more true, it was a hoax, really.
totally agree. beside sean evens one of the relly great interviewers today.
and: I love the cut a second 00:15.
Ryan Gosling did an awesome job on portraying Neil Armstrong, an American hero. Kudos. This became one of my favorite movies.
Extraordinary film. It sticks with you long after leaving the theatre...
Um, the same as the 89% of other reviewers on R.T. who liked the film - absolutely nothing... ruclips.net/video/EyfVqA3HE0k/видео.html

Envious. I was born 25 years later on that date but I wish I could’ve witnessed it. Must have been such a proud moment
Know what you mean I was seven. What a time to be born into...
It's the earliest memory that I have that I can place a date on, I was almost 4, I remember sitting on my grandparents couch in my Casper pajamas.
Get your facts right. Neil Armstrong was not an alcoholic. Aldrin had issues with alcohol which destroyed his first marriage. As for the lying, it happened bud, get over it.
the emotions between him and his wife are just epic acting just when u look at their eye watching each other.
Saw First Man today, Amazing movie. IMO Mr Gosling will get a nomination for his work at the next Oscars.
Makes up for the critics sneezing at Blade Runner 2049
Personally i think it was a really good movie.
Bradley will get the oscars tho..
I'm not a huge fan of ryan, but he killed it in this movie
I haven’t watch it yet. But what i would like to know is, is hans zimmer good tho?
I was glued to this movie from start to finish. Rip and thank you Neil and all apollo astronauts.
The film is extraordinary!
Claire Foy is up for a nomination for sure. And Gosling as Neil...seems weird at first but he nailed the stoic part pretty well. I agree with critics on focusing on that too much, because Neil did have a somewhat dry sense of humor. Besides that, this movie should W I N every damn oscar there is for visuals and sound.

Awesome movie. Saw first on Friday and again last night at the Air & Space Museum IMAX. Worth it. The cinematography and sound will make you feel YOU'RE an astronaut.
Agreed! I saw it on imax and it was absolutely amazing!
except for the terrible choice of crappy music, shaky cam terrible inaccuracies and dreamt up storyline.
his handshake.. he is so sweet and solid
Ryan is truly amazing and talented. I love his dry humor
What an amazing movie. My favorite of 2018. Ryan such an incredible man.
It might be a film about space but really it's about grief and how people react to it.
My favourite interviewer. He should have his own chat show
This was the first good film I've seen in a very long time.
Its ok Ryan's dad, the Apollo missions make me emotional too
What an amazing film. Watched it yesterday and Ryan was amazing 👍👍👍 not just a “pretty face”
This is an amazing film - you connect with it on so many different levels.
I love Ryan so much 😍😍😍😫😫
amazing the best Ryan Gosling on playing Neil Armstrong for First Man
Thinking to see this movie tomorrow!

Within the first 30 seconds of this interview Ryan even makes fun of how serious he is in this. I love him.
Gonna see it for a third time this Saturday, but it was even more emotional the 2nd time around.. I wish I was alive to have witnessed everything. Hopefully we get our equivalent in landing on Mars within the next 2 decades.
i wish you would do a recap of his filmography from the notebook to first man. :(

What a great movie.
Just watched this last night-and now thinking I’d go watch it again. A figure so emotional and detached at the same time-Ryan was spectacular
The gemini pronunciation threw me off, too, and I'm American. I've just never heard it said that way.
I remember watching the old NASA footage scratching me head at the way the astronauts would pronounce “Gemini.” When Gosling said it that way in the first ten minutes I must’ve smiled from ear to ear-they were going for authenticity.
JIMINEE!! :-)
I don't recall them ever saying "jiminy" in real life, though. It was "jeminy".
It is latin for sibling. The correct pronunciation would be GUEMINEE like guest.

Ryan Gosling-ot kedvelem, ha lehet minden filmjét nézem! Köszi a közzétételt!
I'm a fun Ryan and this movie will be nice to watch..😍
Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Heros for all mankind.
Interviews are as good as the interviewer, great job.
First man to step on the moon he is!!
My father rented a TV and walked with it from the shop a mile uphill to watch the landing and stayed up all night.
Is it fair to say he's underrated?
absolutely class film and book.
That moment when you remember that the main artist is a Canadian.
As Jamie Lee Curtis said, it's called acting. Best actor for the role
And that the second main one is British 😂
Extraordinary acting though, and that is what counts
Wooow, chill dude.. it's not about political correctness.. it's all jokes and fun,
No need to take it personally, well why am i still surprised.... it's 2018.
I'm chill bruh, i was talking to the dude that took my comment in a personal way
"Canadians have the same right to brag they sent their people to the Moon as Amurricans do."
Is Wildest Dreams playing in the background lol
One of very few movies in which Ryan Gosling's character is not huffing cigarettes pall mall.
Question: "Do you think it will have an effect". Yes, it did. It rocked my world. But given I was an impressionable 6 year old at the time, it didn't just have and effect, what they did defined how I viewed the world. Not only at the time, but also afterwards. Now read that back in the voice of Walter Cronkite. You're welcome. (and if you're reading this, yet too young to know who he was, look it up.)
I am late to the party; just saw the movie on Netflix. It was easily the best movie I had seen in a long time. The expressed, but more often suppressed, emotions were overwhelming. Ryan was amazing and so was Claire Foy. I will definitely watch it again.
absolutely fantastic film
Another "the girl they left behind has the hardest job" type flick, they had the same MO for "The Unit".
Looking forward to seeing their depiction of Armstrong's Gemini 8 maneuver.
Somebody gat a swis army knife?
Yeah sure good idea.... WAIT SWIS ARMY KNIFE???
lol that cracked me up😂
Just saw the movie. It was exquisite
Wait, they didn’t use green screens? AWESOME!
To me this was not a Hollywood flick and for that I loved it!! True to what happened with very slight liberties but all in all just epic. I can't wait to see it again!
I hated La La Land but loved this one. It's not a showy film but an intimate and sensitive portray of Armstrong, the great hero, as a man. Ryan is great as ever and so is Claire. If you want a flamboyant and patriotic Hollywood flick for children this is definitely not the right one. Adults - on board! I think Neil would have liked It.
Excellent film
I truly want to see this film, however, as Mr. Armstrong was such an intensely private individual, I will wait until the Blu Ray comes out and watch it in private. This movie honors the over 500,000 incredibly talented individuals who contributed to the accomplishment of a near impossible mission, and honored President Kennedy's commitment, and made that commitment, a reality. That dedication, by the way, caused many a divorce - it required complete dedication to the mission. I think too that that this movie would be dedicated (Were Mr. Armstrong still alive), to Virgil I "Gus" Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee who perished in the plugs out pad fire of Apollo 1 at 1831 hours, Florida time. - a day NONE of us will ever forget. And to the teams in the Houston Mission Control Center (MCC). Spaceflight will never tolerate carelessness, incapacity, and neglect. Grissom, White and Chafee did not die in vain. And finally, no one should ever forget the dedication, sacrifice and work done at Edwards AFB on the X programs and that of the Air Force Systems Command (AFSC) personnel and their families. Flight test is never without risk, and sometimes the ultimate sacrifice is paid by the pilot and their families.
How could they have perfect radio singles out there space wtf
You gotta point the antenna the right way. And it takes two seconds for the signal to reach the moon from earth and vice versa. A radio wave is not fragile, or slow.
A great movie.
Superb film.
In a few years, gosling should play General Grant. He'd be perfect
Niel Armstrong saw Extraterrestrials!👽on the edge of the Moon thats exactly why he then went to Tayos cave??👽👽👽👽great movie great job Ryan❤
And we cant even get good cell phone singles in some areas
Do you use a 30m diameter dish for your phone?
Flawless film
6:38 Like the Cricket, and The first Man on the Moon... P.A.N.
The song from the original Pinocchio movie. "Give A Little Whistle" and "Always Let Your Conscience Be Your Guide" as they were told by the Blue Fairy. A little tiny part but a warm one too :)
