    I love what Lou tells his new crew members at the end of the movie, that he would never ask them to do anything he wouldn’t do himself, normally this would be comforting but knowing what he now about this character and the depths he is willing to sink to, it is so darkly humorous

      @JacksMovieReviews  7 лет назад +14

      I don't think he gave the best performance of the year, I probably would have given it to Michael Keaton for Birdman-but I do think he should have been nominated.

    • @bllsmb
      @bllsmb 7 лет назад +1

      I enjoyed Birdman but I only watched it once and don't have the desire to watch it again. Oscars are strange in that there is no way to account for the longevity and staying power of a movie. Michael Keaton gave a great performance, no doubt, but I prefer Gyllenhaal's here and I think he really makes this movie a classic. I am not usually a fan of his either but this performance was striking to me.

    This film is such an interesting one that I feel goes underappreciated by many. There's so many topics, themes, and messages in here that it just begs for a dialogue with the audience. I remember actively questioning the morality of news outlets and such because of it and it did utimately show me that the problem is on a whole other level with our modern day society at the base of the problem. The say that the character is constantly shown behind the shadows made him feel like a predator waiting for an opportunity to pounce at his prey. Very interesting character study as well. Another great video, man! Keep up the good work!

  • @liberprimus6874
    @liberprimus6874 7 лет назад +1

    The movie shares a lot of similarities between:
    1.Taxi Driver
    2. Drive
    3. Le Samurai.
    If you haven't already, please make a video on these. Keep up the good work.
    The opening of Nightcrawler is pretty striking, but it fits for the themes of the movie.

    • @truefilm1556
      @truefilm1556 7 лет назад

      Liber Primus - all excellent movies you named, but the similarities only go so far. Travis Bickle searches for purpose and goes on a rescue crusade, the other two are clearly neo-noir. Lou Bloom is driven and wants to have successful career at all costs, including the lives of others. He is never in an existential crisis and is never lured into something. It's all his plan and he never deviates from it - there is no change in character. The "dark" (night time) tone is probably one of the very few things the films you mentioned and Nightcrawler (it is not a neo noir by any definition - which usually has a broken, washed up, desperate, confused or weak protagonist) have in common. But that's just my take on it.
      Here is Jack's video on Drive: ruclips.net/video/uhcjNLgRias/видео.html

    • @liberprimus6874
      @liberprimus6874 7 лет назад

      Interesting, thanks for the reply. I'll look into the video. The atmosphere and tone are pretty similar within each movie, which is why I included them. When Travis stares into the coffee cup, and when Iris mentions to Travis: Haven't you looked at your own eyes in the mirror, it triggered an out looked examination, but your viewpoint is still sound as he never really went full True Detective pessimist. Cheers.

    • @truefilm1556
      @truefilm1556 7 лет назад

      Liber Primus - Well thanks for your reply. The themes of darkness (literal and as a metaphor), danger, crime and characters that don't fit into society are all very much present in Nightcrawler. I also should add that nothing I ever say is meant to be condescending. We all are learning (even the greatest) during our entire lives. To this day the debate goes on about what film noir (and later neo noir) actually is. I mention that because darkness and danger are parts of it (usually). True Detective (season 1) definitely is one of the greatest works (cinema or TV) ever made. It is not so much noir (since this "gernre" is almost always in an urban setting), than a neo western (the law of the land). BUT it has strong noir influences.
      Again: apologies if I come off as lecturing. That is never my intention. Always great seeing people truly interested in the movies and what they have to say.

    Lou Bloom played by Jake Gyllenhaal was beyond amazing!
    I know my movie characters quite well. Lou Bloom went from being a petty theif to becoming a stringer founding a news gathering service which he starts off as a freelance to a professional which he gradually progresses into a successful established company, Video Production News, along with new internet who'll pursue their career goals as full-time employees for VPN along with new customized vans for VPN while continuing to expand his business.
    Again, he went from being a petty theif to becoming a stringer founding a news gathering service which, long story short, he makes into a bigger company. It's like he found his calling in life which actually leads him away from petty theivery.
    That's Lou Bloom for you there.

    Hey, great analysis and I agree with almost all of the interpretations. I however not understand the point being made from 2:53 onwards. The one that begins with "Nina is in a medium shot". Maybe you could reiterate?
    Thx for your efforts.

    • @JacksMovieReviews
      @JacksMovieReviews  7 лет назад

      This may have been me diving in deeper and over interpreting and it may be worth rewatching the scene.
      Basically when it starts, Nina is in medium, Lou is in wide-and think about where they are-Nina is wanting to trust Lou, Lou is wanting to manipulate her.

    • @LUNTE1337
      @LUNTE1337 7 лет назад

      Thanks for your reply. I just feel it's a bit thin. I believe the shot is part of the argument that you bring a short moment later, that Lou is stepping to Nina. That effect is amplified by showing how far away he is in a long shot beforehand. So basically the distance that he traverses from the first long shot to the last close-up close to her face is him convincing her.

    • @truefilm1556
      @truefilm1556 7 лет назад

      LUNTE1337 - the entire sequence is about the power play. Lou talks and walks towards her, basically cornering her, but she is interested. When they walk through the studio together, its a long (ish) shot since the entire bodies are in frame. Then we see Nina (we see the event from her side) in a medium shot (waiste down cut off), so she is already "closer" and a little more open to what he has to say and offer, but she still has (often) her arms crossed (= not so fast!). When Lou comes from a long shot (full body, in full focus - she is on "higher ground" because Lou starts off with his eyes below the eye line - not yet in full power) and Nina is close in an over the shoulder position (out of focus, still dwarfing him), the camera amplifies his approaching after that by dollying-in at the same time. When they are both closest together, it's the usual over the shoulder shot and matching reverse shot. Note that the camera is now always slightly below the eye line: both are now in a power position, but for different reasons. Check the entire scene in sequence. Blocking, lens choices, framing, camera movement and lighting are all "telling the story". Hope this helps.

      LUNTE1337 - thank you! Of course it is even more detailed and subtle than that (directions of movement, set design....), but I'm sure you know that.

    Biggest Oscar snub in recent memory. Gyllenhaal was phenomenal!!

      Travis Spazz - Well I guess it has a lot to do with the dark, twisted subject matter, which is old news by now. At least Jake Gyllenhaal was nominated for all important awards, except for the Oscar. I must agree here with Jack: Michael Keaton in Birdman was a notch better, because it never felt like he was "acting". But anyway: Gyllenhaal was indeed incredible, never crossing the line into overacting (IMHO) - and I cannot imagine anyone having done a better job. STILL (that's just my humble opinion) I would love to see what, say, Michael Fassbender or Joaquin Phoenix would have done with the material. Another (obvious) choice would have been Christian Bale.

    I hated Lou as a character but I couldn't help but be impressed by Jake's performance.

    • @JacksMovieReviews
      @JacksMovieReviews  7 лет назад +1

      Do you mean you hated him as a person (found his actions reprehensible) or you didn't find his characters arc to be substantial.

    • @megumi6499
      @megumi6499 7 лет назад

      I didn't like him as a person. But, I know that these kinds of people come and go in society and he'll die alone with no one at his funeral.

    • @truefilm1556
      @truefilm1556 7 лет назад

      Megumi - same here: people like Lou are despicable, but they exist and Jake Gyllenhaal nailed it. I have a feeling that Lou doesn't care if he dies alone. He doesn't care about other people, living in his bubble. He uses people only as tools.
      Many wonderful, honest human beings who contributed a lot to make the world a better place also die alone. Life is far from being fair. Please don't get me wrong: I fully agree with you.

      Megumi Jake's performance was great but disturbing. You don't like the character but you might be intrigued on what he does next.

    Ok I'm just going to ask up front.
    How do you do manage to analyze all these films in your videos in such a profound way?
    I mean, did you study in a film school, did you just learn in your free time or is it a gift of you being able to notice all these details that very few people have?

    • @JacksMovieReviews
      @JacksMovieReviews  7 лет назад +1

      I think the best way to describe it would be practice. I'm not too happy with a lot of my earliest videos.
      I also spend a lot of time looking for details and in this case, this video was co-written with someone which helps make the research process much easier.
