I love how Daniel Craig keeps Bond's personality while being torture, when mocking Le Chiffre, but at the same time screams in agony as a real person would
Actually this is a very logical thing for Bond to do. If he displays fear, Lechiffre would have just tortured him more. However, by joking about the situation and act as if he’s enjoying it, Lechiffre becomes frustrated and panics. Making his opponent emotional and getting stabbed to death is better than getting tortured to the very end
Mads Mikkelsen is probably the best of the Craig Bond villains. Just the right amount of menace and never allows the character to become to over the top and cartoonish.
Well, actually safin is one. I thought he was the best out of the series. Silva is 2nd for me but still one of my all timers. Wanna take a guess who’s last for me?
I feel like it's kind of helpful that it's SO beyond the pale of anything he's had to viscerally endure before, it's SO terrifying, you wind up feeling like to feel scared would be pointless, be irrelevant. You go beyond the boundaries of having an understanding of it to be scared, you're actually kind of serene and zen about it.
well first off, i wouldn't call you that, I wouldn't call anyone that, that's just horrible. Second of all, you can't be trained to "ignore" or "not feel" fear. You can be trained to deal with fear, and to process it in a healthier way, and to control your reactions to it. Bond is clearly doing all of that. He's in a situation where he's probably going to die, his mission will fail, and someone he cares about is probably going to also have horrible, horrible things happen to them. He's scared. He's a brand new 00 agent, too--he probably hasn't even been in this exact situation before, or at least not this bad. He also almost died earlier in the night, so he's already tired, in pain, and stressed. ANYONE would be scared there, and anyone saying they wouldn't be is a liar, or stupid. What happens next is the important part, though: he controls his response to that fear PERFECTLY. He doesn't break, he composes himself enough to keep ahold of himself as stuff spirals out of control. But he's still terrified--you can see it in Craig's performance. tl;dr: bravery isn't lack of fear, it's facing your fear. also, don't call people retarded.
Carlos You are right its dark and humorous at the same time.When Bond had the ITCH LINE LeChiffe should have said "You want daddy to help you with that problem here it comes my favorite problem solver"!!!!!!!
Carlos The person who downloaded this scene said the wooden chair had a piece of FIBER GLASS attached to prevent any unwanted injuries to Craig in a way it spoiled this scene for me I personally wanted to know how much punishment .007 could withstand.
I'm more concerned about different question. Why didn't Le Chiffre think of taking a gun in this scene? It was obvious that this scene wouldn't have ended so predictably
I dunno... do we wind up seeing many of the endless parade of women he's banged over the years for any more than 9 months past when he meets them? it seems he could very well have enough illegitimate kids out there to form its own sovereign nation lol

One of the best scenes of all time and probably the best bond film too date."The whole world is gonna know you died scratching my balls" "to the right too right" classic.
@Stephen Jones Those movies are classics but Casino is the best made Bond film especially from a film perspective. It's cinematography is only topped by Skyfall and that's because of Rodger Deakins. But the story, pacing, action scenes, dialogue, characters, music were all the best in Casino Royale
This scene is so great. For once, Bond doesn't talk or gadget his way out of a sticky situation, he just takes the pain to protect his mission and shows us how badass a 00-Agent really is. All the while making the villain desperately shit his pants because he's trying to move an inmovable object.
It is a pretty badass scene. There is nothing he can do to get himself out of the situation, and he knows it. So when he has nothing to lose but the mission, he protects the mission.

This makes me realize how much he has been wasted by Hollywood lmao hopefully he gets better roles in the future someday I'd rather see him rather than non actors like Keanu or Ryan Reynolds
This scene is amazing. Bond is in the worst situation possible, but he still manages to turn the tables, playing mind games. Not only he shows that he's tough, but makes the guy look ridiculous and make him afraid to die at the same time, destabilizing him. That's very powerful.
"Now the whole world is gonna know that you died scratching my balls" This is the best part to me lmao. It's so fucking hilarious to imagine if Le Chiffre thought that when the other guy entered the room to kill him.
This really shows Daniel Craig's caliber as an actor -- he conveys so much energy, and pain, and still the wit and grit that makes him the most lethal agent. Brilliant piece of cinema.
In fact, Craig's Bond is essentially how James Bond would be in real life: Gone are the campiness of the early movies, this is a proper spy who has a morally grey standpoint: He is not a bad guy, but he isn't spotless either.
Oh it was bad. I took my future husband to see this in the theater after I'd already seen it once. I just excused myself to the bathroom before this scene. He did not look well when I got back!
This is literally the only torture scene in any Bond movie that actually felt as real and disturbing as it ought to. No giant laser, no goofy-looking brain drill that Blofeld got at the Apple store to make Bond forget people's faces. Just a desperate, vicious bastard using junk he found in the basement to beat a password out of Bond's nuts.
@@dwightlove3704 I did, and I take your point, but it was in the very absolute start of the film where it had the least impact, it was conveyed as a goofy music video, and it was promptly forgotten in all the inane gibberish that was the rest of that film.
Mads Mikkelsen (Le Chiffre’s actor) went to one costume fitting. Everyone was stressed as they were trying to cast Vesper. So when he showed up, he hung out with Daniel Craig. When the director showed up, he told him, “Go home. Why are you here?” Which confused him. The director came back and said “no you don’t understand, you got the part, welcome aboard. You don’t have to be here.” Daniel’s only response to this was “Who did you fuck? I did six castings for this.”
Daniel Craig didn't even want to be Bond though. The producers really wanted him and talked him into it. The sauce: ruclips.net/video/qFYykdzTQSA/видео.html
Love Mads in this, he's got such an aura of villain by not even saying anything. The writing is fantastic, having Mr White come in and killing Le Chiffre added some curiosity to the story.
Le Chiffre: You are a funny man, Mr. Bond. James Bond: Funny, how? What’s so funny about me? Am I clown? I amuse you? I make you laugh? I’m here to amuse you?
As a 14 year old, I saw this in the cinema with my mother sitting beside me. She kept laughing at the serious look on my face as I tried to make sense of what I was looking at.
Man i m sorry for this experience. This is absolutely not funny. And your mom should be ashamed for her behavior and lack of empathy toward her own son. Plus having him exposed to this type of scene.
Le Chiffre..... "The Password..." Bond...." I got a little itch down there... Do you mind" *Le Chiffre about to start the beating* Bond...."WAIT WAIT.... THAT'S THE PASSWORD"
According to behind the scenes interviews, that seat piece had actually had an affair with that henchman's girlfriend and stolen his goldfish. Sad scene when you know that backstory
When this film was announced, one of my first thoughts was how they would depict the torture scene with the carpet beater as portrayed in the novel because of how brutal it sounded. This was even more horrible than I imagined both for what Bond endured and seeing the lengths Le Chiffre would go to out of desperation.
I just loved Mads Mickelson as a Bond Villain. The transformation he shows from "Give them 5 min and throw them overboard" to "I ll get the money" is just amazing.
“You know, I never understood all these elaborate tortures. It's the simplest thing... to cause more pain than a man can possibly endure.... And of course, it's not only the immediate agony, but the knowledge... that if you do not yield soon enough... there will be little left to identify you as a man. The only question remains: will you yield, in time?” Damn, the dialogue for this scene is so bone-chilling, and it’s so well-acted! Edit 2023, and this movie is still a masterpiece, and my personal favorite Bond movie. Also, I know this is kind of random but as an American, I love the English accent so much :)
Actually, he uses the word Enjoy not Endure. Some hardened men can actually find pleasure in mild to moderate amounts of pain. I should know, I am one of those men.
@@prophecybydefault4708 I wouldn't call it suffering if you enjoy it. Extreme amounts of pain are what I'd call suffering & that ain't fun for anyone. But just a bit of pain can be enjoyable. Hard to explain I guess
2 sweaty men in the same basement, one is naked while the other one holding a rope. Somehow this description lead me to a totallly different scenario till this day.
This scene works so well, where other torture scenes fall flat, purely because it’s so believable. Every other torture scene operates off of some futuristic technology, or a fictional scientific concept, or some ridiculous environmental hazard. Here, all that Le Chiffre needed was a chair, some rope and an empty location. You can buy that by the time he drove to the place after capturing Bond, he could’ve phoned up a couple of his goons to have everything ready for him, whereas every other torture scenario in the Bond franchise would always involve way more time, or foresight, or knowledge about Bonds’ plans to be ready. It’s simple, but oh so effective.
I have been kicked in the balls approximately 25 times in my 20 year old life.Some of those were by Taek Von Do black belts and football players. Don't worry it's not that horrifying after the 17th time or so
like silva's gay seduction in skyfall to make bond uncomfortable, bond took it head on, "what makes you thinks this is my first time?". he establishes their shenanigens wont sway him in anyway. so i say its training.
possibly both sometimes spys are trained like spec ops lol like snake from metal gear 3 (snake eater a term given to green berets in the u.s. military )
Mads Mikkelsen is underrated in this scene. He clearly sells Le Chiffre as a villain trying so hard to be psychologically terrifying but Bond being smart as he is knows he's an amateur torturer and eventually breaks him down to desperation. Mikkelsen plays that so well. Definitely deserves credit for this scene.
Thing is, Le Chiffre wasn't exactly a villain. He was more a desperate and greedy accountant who came up short gambling with his clients money. If he hadn't tried to multiply it the cash he was meant to protect none of this wouldn't have happened.
Im just gonna assume thats correct due to the like 15+ comments of the same thing, dont wanna hope everyone made the same unoriginal joke and was just repeating the same info instead
you're soooo close. It was "I've got a little itch down there would you mind69". see, there's a reason these systems recommend you mix letters and numbers when creating a password.
In another universe, La Chiffre would be looking up at Bond's nuts for a clue saying "I don't see the password" and Bond thinking "what kind of idiot would believe the password is do with my crown jewels? The only thing they unlocked recently was Vesper Lynd."
@@darren871 Le Chifre would have tried that immediately. Bond is smart enough to know that a cheap trick like that would buy him only a few useless extra minutes amd only infuriate Le Chifre even more which would cause him only more pain
Great dialogue, great acting, all in all a 10/10 torture scene yet holding the cinematic elements and not hyping the torture. Bond is terrified yet tries to keep a straight face and is only truly shows his fear when vesper screams. Le Chiffre knows he’s incharge in that particular moment but won’t be for long as quantum will be after him. Even the escape seems like a genuine way out and not just plot-armour. Mads and Craig elevated the scene so much.
I love that Bond is doing combat breathing to help endure the pain. It actually does help with many things, especially stress, B.J. Blazkowicz taught me that.
Vesper kind of said something with that context, which goes like: "What if I told you... what was only left of you, is your smile and little finger?" Bond smirks and replies to this by saying: "But you know what I can do with my little finger." Lmao what a chad.
Bond: -“I’ve got a little itch down there, would you mind?” Le Chiffre: - (screaming at the door) "OK...JAWS, come in!" Bond: -"Jaws, NOOOOOOOOOOooo...!!!"
@@domenica3639 Adamantium knife. It's a little known fact, but Le Chiffre is actually an utter badass and managed to extract one of Wolverine's claws even though that's impossible
When the guy cut the hole in the chair I thought: "Oh shit, this is gonna be pretty bad!" Had no idea... Just as cringe inducing now as the first time I saw it!
Definitely one of those very few times I have ever cringed at a movie scene due to brutality and not from how "bad" it is. Truly the best Bond movie as far as I see.
5 minutes later Thank you for your cooperation *headshot* *proceeds to walk away then stops halfway to the door* just to be sure *shoots body 10 more times*
Actually in the Casino Royale book, the doctor who takes care of him after the beating assures him all his "bodily functions" are working correctly. So it's all into the lore really.

Balls of steel cannot produce sperm

It’s funny the one that went to more wacky stuff of old bond was the most boring
This scene is amazing. Bond is in the worst situation possible, but he still manages to turn the tables, playing mind games. Not only he shows that he's tough, but makes the guy look ridiculous and make him afraid to die at the same time, destabilizing him. That's very powerful.
it's a movie, man
It's just a movie lmao
It's the only way to stop him whacking his balls.
But in reality he would have had his genitals fed to him.
If this was real life he'd be a dead man walking (or sitting) cos there won't be any Mr White to come rescue him.
Let's be honest: any rational man would have given up their life secrets in this scenario.
you bet your ass we would
Yeah definitely. Still Some gangsters would still not. Watch casino.
Not trained agents though
@@rachitacharya5665 they aint bein trained to take hits in the balls thou
@@AY-qy4jn that makes sense 😂
Just as Heath Ledger won an Oscar for playing the Joker, Craig at the very least should have been nominated for his performance in this movie.
"Now the whole world is gonna know that you died scratching my balls"
This is the best part to me lmao. It's so fucking hilarious to imagine if Le Chiffre thought that when the other guy entered the room to kill him.
the fear on his face before he is shot
was not from knowing that he is dead
but knowing that Bond wasn't joking
yess🤣🤣🤣
Bond's future FATHER IN-LAW
Even if this was a movie his kids will know that the actor died scratching Daniel Craig nuts with a bound up rope lol
Forever the best line in movie history
This really shows Daniel Craig's caliber as an actor -- he conveys so much energy, and pain, and still the wit and grit that makes him the most lethal agent. Brilliant piece of cinema.
In fact, Craig's Bond is essentially how James Bond would be in real life: Gone are the campiness of the early movies, this is a proper spy who has a morally grey standpoint: He is not a bad guy, but he isn't spotless either.
I can never imagine the horror everyone felt watching this in theaters back in 2006
That was me. It's not as bad as I remembered given that he invites more lashes.
Oh it was bad. I took my future husband to see this in the theater after I'd already seen it once. I just excused myself to the bathroom before this scene. He did not look well when I got back!
" To the right, To the Right!!"
To the left, to the left
No no , right in the middle
Whole other movie lol
Noo inside inside....Ahhh yess baby there
To the rite, to the riteeeee!
This is literally the only torture scene in any Bond movie that actually felt as real and disturbing as it ought to.
No giant laser, no goofy-looking brain drill that Blofeld got at the Apple store to make Bond forget people's faces. Just a desperate, vicious bastard using junk he found in the basement to beat a password out of Bond's nuts.

@@dwightlove3704 I did, and I take your point, but it was in the very absolute start of the film where it had the least impact, it was conveyed as a goofy music video, and it was promptly forgotten in all the inane gibberish that was the rest of that film.

Mads Mikkelsen (Le Chiffre’s actor) went to one costume fitting. Everyone was stressed as they were trying to cast Vesper. So when he showed up, he hung out with Daniel Craig. When the director showed up, he told him, “Go home. Why are you here?” Which confused him. The director came back and said “no you don’t understand, you got the part, welcome aboard. You don’t have to be here.” Daniel’s only response to this was “Who did you fuck? I did six castings for this.”
Mads Mikkelsen is a global treasure
Daniel Craig didn't even want to be Bond though. The producers really wanted him and talked him into it.

Love Mads in this, he's got such an aura of villain by not even saying anything. The writing is fantastic, having Mr White come in and killing Le Chiffre added some curiosity to the story.
Le Chiffre: You are a funny man, Mr. Bond.
James Bond: Funny, how? What’s so funny about me? Am I clown? I amuse you? I make you laugh? I’m here to amuse you?
He just wanted him to get his fuckin shinebox 😆
Le Chiffre: Uh... you know uh, just how you tell uh... story. What?

I'm pretty sure James Bond did not have asperger
As a 14 year old, I saw this in the cinema with my mother sitting beside me. She kept laughing at the serious look on my face as I tried to make sense of what I was looking at.

0:22 I never got over how aggressively the henchman flings the seat piece like he hates it
When I look this guy !somehow reminds me agent 47
Lmao
But i'm feel sorry to him because his screentime has too short
According to behind the scenes interviews, that seat piece had actually had an affair with that henchman's girlfriend and stolen his goldfish. Sad scene when you know that backstory
When this film was announced, one of my first thoughts was how they would depict the torture scene with the carpet beater as portrayed in the novel because of how brutal it sounded. This was even more horrible than I imagined both for what Bond endured and seeing the lengths Le Chiffre would go to out of desperation.
"Now the whole world's gonna know that you died scratching my balls"
LMAO that is one the best movie quotes tbh😂 03:28
And he did die scratching his balls 😂😂
Later in the News: Le Chiffre found dead scratching James Bond’s Balls
The whole world: 👁👄👁
right about😂🤣🤣🤣
KUHAHAHAHA

I just loved Mads Mickelson as a Bond Villain. The transformation he shows from "Give them 5 min and throw them overboard" to "I ll get the money" is just amazing.
And low budget but efficient torture (even if it was Sisyphean) is a cherry on top; cuz ballbusting
“You know, I never understood all these elaborate tortures. It's the simplest thing... to cause more pain than a man can possibly endure.... And of course, it's not only the immediate agony, but the knowledge... that if you do not yield soon enough... there will be little left to identify you as a man. The only question remains: will you yield, in time?”
Damn, the dialogue for this scene is so bone-chilling, and it’s so well-acted!
Edit 2023, and this movie is still a masterpiece, and my personal favorite Bond movie. Also, I know this is kind of random but as an American, I love the English accent so much :)
It's true to as soon as my balls at threat I'd give up instantly
Actually, he uses the word Enjoy not Endure. Some hardened men can actually find pleasure in mild to moderate amounts of pain. I should know, I am one of those men.

@@keisuketakahashi3597 r/whoooosh
Dungeon Master
This scene works so well, where other torture scenes fall flat, purely because it’s so believable. Every other torture scene operates off of some futuristic technology, or a fictional scientific concept, or some ridiculous environmental hazard. Here, all that Le Chiffre needed was a chair, some rope and an empty location. You can buy that by the time he drove to the place after capturing Bond, he could’ve phoned up a couple of his goons to have everything ready for him, whereas every other torture scenario in the Bond franchise would always involve way more time, or foresight, or knowledge about Bonds’ plans to be ready. It’s simple, but oh so effective.

Is it just the training or Bond actually a masochist?
like silva's gay seduction in skyfall to make bond uncomfortable, bond took it head on, "what makes you thinks this is my first time?". he establishes their shenanigens wont sway him in anyway. so i say its training.
He's just fucking with his head, showing him he's not giving anything up so he can just do what he wants.
possibly both

@@WhiteFangofWar Thank you

The torturer sweats a lot because even he knows how much painful that must be.
He sweats because he needs the money or he's dead.
@@AVerySillySausage Little did he know he was dead either way...
No, this was right after he argued magical philosophy with Ben&jerry Chocolateswirl and got into multiple gunfights with Norman Reedus
It's the impatience that his torture was not yielding result.
Probably because his anxiety is at maximum level.
Mads Mikkelsen is underrated in this scene. He clearly sells Le Chiffre as a villain trying so hard to be psychologically terrifying but Bond being smart as he is knows he's an amateur torturer and eventually breaks him down to desperation. Mikkelsen plays that so well. Definitely deserves credit for this scene.
"I'll feed you what you seem not to value" Mads audition for Hannibal.
As you can see he aced his audition
The fact that he was able to procreate with Madeline after this is incredible. Balls of steel.
time heals all.
Arguably Casino Royale and Skyfall are the best installments of the James Bond franchise with Daniel Craig.
What other movies do you like?
Didn’t think any of them topped this. I felt the same way with Brosnan and Goldeneye.
Definitely
Casino royale and golden eye are my favourite of recent past
I’m glad you included those last three words
Idc how much money I had concealed , I would have given him the password. It’s not worth going through this pain.
some men were just ment to play villains, Mads Mikkelsen and Javier Bardem
Thing is, Le Chiffre wasn't exactly a villain. He was more a desperate and greedy accountant who came up short gambling with his clients money. If he hadn't tried to multiply it the cash he was meant to protect none of this wouldn't have happened.
Mad Mikkelsen indeed, He plays an excellent hannibal, great show
Christoph Waltz

@@kennydoorye2586 He was an agent of Spectre. Also being an greedy accountant does not contradict being a villain.

Im just gonna assume thats correct due to the like 15+ comments of the same thing, dont wanna hope everyone made the same unoriginal joke and was just repeating the same info instead
you're soooo close.
It was "I've got a little itch down there would you mind69".
see, there's a reason these systems recommend you mix letters and numbers when creating a password.
In another universe, La Chiffre would be looking up at Bond's nuts for a clue saying "I don't see the password" and Bond thinking "what kind of idiot would believe the password is do with my crown jewels? The only thing they unlocked recently was Vesper Lynd."
ROFL

Great dialogue, great acting, all in all a 10/10 torture scene yet holding the cinematic elements and not hyping the torture. Bond is terrified yet tries to keep a straight face and is only truly shows his fear when vesper screams. Le Chiffre knows he’s incharge in that particular moment but won’t be for long as quantum will be after him.
Even the escape seems like a genuine way out and not just plot-armour.
Mads and Craig elevated the scene so much.

Vesper kind of said something with that context, which goes like: "What if I told you... what was only left of you, is your smile and little finger?" Bond smirks and replies to this by saying: "But you know what I can do with my little finger." Lmao what a chad.
