Pro Acting Coach Breaks Down 10 Crying Scenes | Good & Bad Acting

- Acting coach Jonna Johnson reacts to 10 iconic crying scenes from movies, reviewing the highs and lows of the actors' performances.
Every movie star has their own cry face, from Daniel Kaluuya's thick tears in the sunken-place scene from "Get Out" to Tobey Maguire's signature "ugly cry" from the "Spider-Man" movies. When it's time for the tears to roll on camera, some actors go for a single droplet strategically placed on the cheek, while others like to unleash the full waterworks. Some draw in the audience by emoting hard, like Julianne Moore does with her unbridled sobbing in "Still Alice;" others tell a story through subtle facial movements, as Jennifer Lopez does in a teary confrontation scene from "Hustlers."
With such a wide variety of crying styles, what makes some sob scenes pack an emotional punch - while others strike audiences as goofy or overdone? In this episode of "Good & Bad Acting," Johnson unpacks 10 of the best and worst cinematic tears, from Viola Davis' visceral monologue in "Fences" to Nicolas Cage's cartoonish breakdown in "Vampire's Kiss."
Johnson evaluates how various shades of crying suit different genres and styles of film, ranging from Reese Witherspoon's over-the-top breakup cry in the classic 2001 rom-com "Legally Blonde," to Heather Donahue's dread-filled apology in the 1999 found-footage horror flick "The Blair Witch Project," to Leonardo DiCaprio's collapse into tears in the dark 1995 drama "The Basketball Diaries." She deconstructs the greatness of Marlon Brando's primal yelling in "A Streetcar Named Desire," pointing out the shades of anguish and vulnerability in the way Brando voices those cries of "Stella!" Johnson dissects the nuances of actors' approaches to weeping on camera, from the build-up of snot seen in "Fences" and "The Blair Witch Project" to the tensed facial muscles seen in "Hustlers" and "Get Out.
Throughout the video, Johnson pins down the acting choices that make some cries come as forced or insincere, while others read as authentic emotional behavior on screen.

Pro Acting Coach Breaks Down 10 Crying Scenes | Good & Bad Acting 
Развлечения
Toby McGuire looks like he’s forcing the tears out, Daniel kaluuya looks like he’s trying to keep them in, they’re a huge difference
She's definitely right about the circumstance. He's having the reaction one would expect later, when he's home alone, thinking back on what happened, not one that involves a friend dying before his eyes. But I'm not sure about Kaluuya though. The tears fall too fast ... Maybe he reached a level I haven't seen before or maybe they thought it a good idea to enhance the emotion. I think tears are a little sticky, aren't they? His are gliding
@@alexispapageorgiou72 my tears be gliding too lol it depends on how much youve been holding in
@@tink6225 What holding in? The whole concept of the scene is the rapid switch of emotions, thus ... aaaa ... Maybe I was wrong. Wow if I am ... Awesome!
Despite the fact that Tobey had no actual tears, the ugly cry i find is the most realistic of all crying
@@alexispapageorgiou72 He looks a bit similar to me when I'm crying, my eyes get very red and the tears flow pretty freely. I haven't seen that much in other people, but I produce quite a lot of liquid. But I also cry a lot (certain commercials are usually enough), I don't know if he does. My first thought when I saw that scene was: Either they used enhancements, or his tears ducts are similar to mine.
The crying scene in Get Out by not only the main character, but by the Black woman who played the butler for the white family (which we later found out her mind was taken over by their dead grandma), was oscar worthy. Unreal from both stars.
That was good, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. It’s not that hard to look crazy and cry ... if you’re crazy.
@@itizzano8233 Spoken like a true uneducated simpleton.
@@Casanova966 lol, you’re seriously going to report my response. Just because I made you look bad. Classic, unsubstantiated followed by the invalidated. From the guy who wrote a paragraph and called it a sentence.
@@itizzano8233 I don't even know how to report you weirdo. Why would I report you? You never said anything offensive, just ignorant. Get a life.
@@Casanova966 No one else had a reason to. Though, I wouldn’t think 161 people would like your stupid statement in the first place. Only shows who’s watching this video. I like people who use ignorant incorrectly. It’s a very ignorant thing to do. I guess you can’t teach intelligent concepts to dumb people. It’s my fault for not realizing that. Best of luck to you little buddy, you uninformed pos.
I wish there were more examples of acting scenes that DIDN’T work
tobey maguire
@@ellaelliott4415 well he did say more.
That’s just like...one scene
@@cekojuna6930 and I was responding to that scene. He said much more than just that, I just pinpointed that one scene. This is also just my opinion. It doesn’t mean much I was just saying my opinion
STAR WARSSSS😭😭😭
i think crying and anger are the easiest
I'm a fan of Jonna's 'silent film test' approach. As a Deaf person, music doesn't matter in scenes for me, it's all about the face and the body action, so I think it's a very good test.
Spectacular!
@jigyoda that’s the point of the comment. This person can’t be emotionally manipulated by music. That’s what they said.
This is why I love the film No Country For Old Men... no background manipulation & it was much more powerful that way, I am HoH myself.
Sucks there’s no captions on this
Do you ever hear yourself think?
Wait, there's a career for crying? You guys are getting paid?
......... acting.
I’m gonna be rich!
😭😭😭😭😭➡️💰💰💰💰💰
She’s an ACTING COACH.
Trust me, just because you can cry effortlessly doesn't mean acting is for you.
“Someone whose mental state is not coherent with what we are accustomed to.” What a respectful statement.
Choice words, yes.
What a word salad.
The scene in I, Tonya where Margot Robbie was breaking down while simultaneously trying to keep it together was fantastic acting. The scene in Love Actually where Emma Thompson breaks down, but has to keep it together for the sake of her kids. Ugh those two scenes are too relatable.
I concur
Emma Thompsons performace was so heartbreaking
Margot wasn’t really acting!! She was doing her make up before the next scene and she said it was already a really difficult day on set, the dp said “keep doing what you’re doing, let’s film this” and that’s what came of it
Oh yes these are reaaaally good scenes!!
Emma Thompson is the queen of crying
Every acting coach loooves Leo.
Ordinary people also love his acting lol, I'm not a movie junkie at all but I was so impressed at his tics in that gilbert grapes movie I became a fan. My brother is also a special need and I thought Leo was really too for a sec there hahahhahaha.
@@michellelee8933 I loved his early movies, but didn’t really like the commercially popular ones. 🤷♀️
@@jennyh4025 most of his movies are popular , which ones you're referring to?
@@DeanithForeverYoung I don’t know anything, that came out after Titanic. I love This Boy’s Life, What’s eating Gilbert Grape, Basketball Diaries,...
@@jennyh4025 Basketball Diaries is very popular though... He was famous before Titanic. Romeo and Juliet was also a very popular movie.
Every time tobey tried to cry he looks like hes smiling
I smile like that when I cry sometimes like at 1:40
His crying’s not that bad
@@paladinheadquarters7776 They’re just all blindly agreeing with what this lady is saying. Nobody had any problems with Tobey Maguire’s acting/crying until now when she’s stating these things. These people won’t even form their own opinions, they’ll just blindly agree.
@@bucketboydee4727 I swear
Some people cry like that. I do.
Carey Mulligan is another example of that.
Man, even just that clip of Leonardo Decaprio’s scene had me gutted for his character, even though I’ve never seen the movie and someone was talking over it. That’s some seriously good acting.
It's even more heartbreaking when you watch the whole scene. But I won't spoil it for you. You should just watch the movie.
@@dead_beatbunny Where can I watch it
@@shaanalam3872 the basketball diaries is the name of the movie. it's in my top 5 favorite movies forsure.
@@jennafarra10 Thank you Ill watch it
It’s based on a real person too - the author of The Basketball Diaries who grew up in Hell’s Kitchen (or near there, IIRC).
Daniel’s performance is mind boggling
I've never seen that movie, but Leonardo DiCaprio's scene is so good. I live downtown in a city with drug problems and I see addicts break down like this sometimes from my window. It's crazy how accurate this portrayal is.
I‘ve seen only his early work and Basketball Diaries was great! Just like This Boy’s Life and What’s Eating Gilbert Grape. He lost me around Titanic. 😉
He is an amazing method actor! He would be fascinating to watch act in real life
@@jennyh4025 you're missing some great films and performances such as The Great Gatsby, Inception, The Revenant, The Departed, just to name a few!!
@@valentinabascunan7146 all due respect to Iñarritú, The Revenant sucked. Leo's performance was amazing, but the movie was really boring and unnecesary long.
@@mmmanutd I agree! I feel like they just "owed" him an oscar for having him loose so many other times for more worthy performances.
Leo in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape... honestly... when he’s crying over the grasshopper & then later his mom. You FELT that.
Seriously one of the most underrated movies ever!
When he’s screaming “dad’s dead” killed me. It feels like your actually in the room. That scene always gives me anxiety.
Leo as Arnie was just phenomenal.
I'd like to see mental health experts break down scenes that are supposed to show depression, anxiety, Bipolar, DID, etc. And someone well respected when it comes to disability. I'm chronically ill and not traditionally employable. So much media shows illness or injury as something to "get past," to grow beyond before healing and being stronger for it, but that pervasive message can create a negative expectation that people just... get better from these things, and when you don't, when you stay sick, that's a disappointment. If they don't, it's usually part of a little broken bird trope where they're being supported about it by a colorful cast of friends who stick by them. Or they're considered desirable because of the whole damsel in distress "I can take care of you," trope.
I think taking a look at media that showcases the reality of various aspects of disabilities would be interesting and cause the viewer to think about the lives REAL people live. If people with chronic pain alone lived in a country, it would have more inhabitants than any country currently existing in the WORLD. But it's not... well understood and showcased. Whether physical or mental, it's hard, especially for people who've been gifted with good health their whole lives. If you can't even identify with body aches during the flu because you've NEVER been sick, it's kind of hard to wrap your mind around the toll it takes, and it would be hard to mimic the stress it puts on you, like increased respiration and even holding your breath while you're bracing through the pain, so your breath comes out in little gusts. A lot of people have their affect and pitch drop when they'e in pain; they're mentally struggling with it, coping with it, so they may also be more distracted. There are so many little things, and rubbing your back and looking sad sometimes while literally saying, "Ow," doesn't cover it, not to someone who really knows pain. Before COVID, I was able to work at a pain management clinic (not of the pill mill variety; we ran a pretty tight ship), and there are so many non-verbals to know how a patient is doing, if we need to bump them up the list because they won't physically be able to sit in the chair another half an hour. It's not a fun thing to look at too closely, pain. But if that's the job the actor has, well, let's just say some could stand to look closer.
Great idea! I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen depression depicted in a realistic and grounded way. I think Midsommar comes to mind with a good depiction of trauma responses and anxiety. Bly Manor does well with handling PTSD as well. As someone with various mental illnesses I felt those roles were handled with care and the actresses kept it grounded.
There's a thai show called "Project S: SOS" where the main character had depression and I personally find that show to be one of the few, which have realistically portrayed how it is having it. I found the acting to be amazing too. It's on youtube with subs, if it is!
I would like to see that. I am also depressed right now. It's been three years. The thing is, since months ago somehow is like my mind deceives every way of emotion. I can't really feel anything unless is bad humour but my antidepressants kill my bad humour and I just feel empty. I am not sad or feel bad or have breathing problems, I'm just there. I would really like to experiment an emotion again. I guess it can be frustrating in that emotionless way. I have never watched something like that portrayed in movies or series. It's always the emotional portray or the physically desesperating one
Wow. Yes I agree
@@ssharkbait Check out Melancholia.. as someone else suggested. It's a gut punch, like seeing yourself laid out in a movie.
The first one was so good it was uncomfortable to watch
There is such raw terror in it. Peeling someone back to a childhood trauma.... I think only professionals and really trusted loved ones should be trusted to do that for a person who needs to talk about such traumas in order to properly address them step by step.
I didn't even know there was something such as a crying coach 😂
Ikr lmao😂
@@joshuamorehead6124 read the caption again
She is an Acting Coach
Crying is the sub discipline
@@ForteExpresso Dude I read the caption, I didn't know there was such thing as a crying coach until I watched this vid, GENIUS!!!
it's hard to cry on cue
It is a acting couch not crying but crying is in acting
Leo... No matter what you look at: crying, rage, dying, love scenes... He is always brilliant!!
Truly is.
Even in Shakespeare it was supposed to be campy and it was but it was still heartbreaking
I saw The Basketball Diaries for the first time a few days ago, and what struck me the most in Leo's crying scene is how much he looks and sounds like a young boy who's desperate for his mom. I cry every time I see that scene again :(
He’s not.. he wants drugs. Addicts only care about the drugs, it’s a cruel illness.
Matthew McConaughey's crying in the Interstellar was one of the best I have seen . Also the moment when Alan Rickman saw lily's body and burst into tears was just an oscar worthy scene with perfect cinematography and music score
Yeah Matthew scene makes me cry.
OMG YES IN INTERSTELLAR -- It gets me each time. Even when I try to desensitize myself to it and had seen the movie quite a few times before, so I know it's coming .... Nope... I'm crying just as hard as he is.
Yeah that’s one of my favorite scenes in film.
Yes it made me cry...was awesome
Mathew McConaughey's was the first movie scene that made me cry... It... It broke me...
Whenever I see Tobey maguire crying the first thing that comes to my mind was the smilling filter meme
LOL!
Viola Davis is a helluva actress!! And Leo and the actor from Get Out were also very memorable.
His name is Daniel Kaluuya. Come on, his name is in the description.
@@gabbym333 I know right Daniel is an amazing actor
Daniel is a premium actor!!
I have this spot in my brain that refuses to let me watch another person crying without crying myself. IDK wtf it is. I KNOW that they're acting. FFS I'm crying NOW! That Leonardo scene kills me, that Jennifer Lopez scene, KILLS ME. UGH.
You're very empathetic! I believe it's a good thing, to be able to sympathize with the pain of others 😊 you must be a great listener!
You, my friend, are an empath.
I feel you 😭I even cry with cartoon characters 😭
Same, emotions in general are just "contagious" to me, if someone talking to me is very happy then I'll be just as happy as them and if they're sad and crying I'll have to hold back the tears
Samee
I remember when I first watched the Blair witch project I was like 10 years old. I watched it at my friends house and didn't understand that it was a Hollywood movie. I thought it was real found footage. I was so scared I didn't walk near a tree for years 😫
It was really scary movie...
I'm gonna watcg next part of it
I never found that movie scary. Even while young. Just some symbols and people standing in a corner. So boring
Yikes!
interestingly a lot of people were concerned it was real, it was marketed in a way to seem so
@@simontaylor647 yeah it was the first of its kind in the "found footage" movie genre from what I know of anyway. They didn't even market the movie that much, didn't have a large budget. I can remember hearing about it from friends and others before I never seen a trailer. Not to say there wasn't one, I just know that the word was spread fast that it was real. I know a lot of people who said the movie wasn't scary, people have to be lying if they weren't creeped out even just a little . The actors did a great job with making it feel real.
"the actress", lol. Girl, you know that's Reese Witherspoon.
Same thing I said 🙄🙄🙄🙄
calm tf down
but she's an actress right?
😅😂
The "Get out" scene used here was one cinematic masterpiece of a scene. No monsters, ghosts or ghouls and yet- very terrifying moment. The vulnerability seeping out and a vulnerability we all connected to
The fact that midsommar and hereditary weren’t here is a travesty
Those were deep in the chest cries
@@scaryoctoberchild4993 they were true mourning, not just sadness ya know? They were actual grief
oMG the crying in midsommar shakes me to my cOre
because she shakes. she breaks down. she feels. she’s losing things and people. she’s losing herself. she breaks. not a snap she doesn’t snap she sHATTERS
@@unmusicallyinclined exactlyyy it isn’t just crying she’s like, heaving and breaking down and it’s actual loss
Yes. I don't know the actress name but it shakes you to the core to hear her bawl like that. Heart wrenching
Matt Damon with Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting..."it's not your fault" 😭😭😭
Great, Great scene!
Viola Davis nails every crying scene
Daniel's cry on ,Get Out, PHENOMENAL!!! One of the best cry scenes!!! Viola Davis is another PHENOMENAL crier!!! Anything with Jennifer Lopez as an actress...I watch! Jennifer's another GREAT crier!!!
This video has entered the arena of “Is Nicolas Good or Bad at acting”
Ask Abed!
@@noradalmy6389 please don't, poor Abed
How does Leo do that. How. How. How.
Local actors HATE HIM all because he figured out this one weird trick to acting!! find out what it is NOW!
@@spoolofflarn8760really? I thought he was more loved than hated
My girl.... when the little girl is at the funeral and says, " he needs his glasses." Wow!! That scene got me!
I wish she analyzed Andrew Garfield's crying when Gwen died
That was incredible terrible
That was good. He was kind of breaking apart in that moment.
Daniel Kaluuy in Get Out looked like he was on the verge of a panic attack and is trying his very best to shut down and cut of all his emotions.
He does, he looks genuinely terrified. Captivating and disturbing. He is an absolutely brilliant actor. And doing a perfect accent the entire time
@@jayltee There was a point where she paused and talked about his eyes and it was pure terror, not a hint of artifice. Amazing.
Toby McGuire ugly cry used to make me laugh when I was a kid watching Spiderman
Viola's cry in Fences shook me to my core when I watched that movie. I remember feeling those feelings with her and crying while watching her cry.
I didn't care for the movie but that scene, wow! Shook me to the core is exactly the way to describe it. I was bawling.
And her scene in "Doubt" is quite remarkable as well.
Never realized that crying could be soo tough
It’s hard to get out of your head when you have a camera and audience watching you closely
When Leonardo cries, I cry.
wish they reacted to basically any one of zendaya scenes in euphoria
+
Overrated. You kids can only appreciate whats trendy
@@greyLeicester she's an amazing actor at such a young age and I think the emmys would disagree with you.
@@greyLeicester She’s an amazing actor. Not everyone follows after “trends” if the show is a good show, well watch it. Totally disagree with you..
I’ll always love Uma Thurman’s crying in Kill Bill. In volume 1 when she wakes up from her coma and holds her stomach while crying her eyes out has always felt so realistic to me. Then the end of volume 2 after killing Bill and she’s in the bathroom crying on the floor will forever be one of my favourite cries in film.
"A tantrum" is a perfect way to describe the Toby Maguire scene. Lol
Daniel is always best !!! Big fan from India of him.
Idk, Tobey's cry during Uncle Ben's death got me real good.
You really just missed the outstanding performance by Toni Collette in the movie Sixth Sense at the very end of the movie when Cole told about him and his grandmother. That was literally one of the best genuine crying scenes I’ve watched.
Yes! She was absolutely incredible and it's heart wrenching to watch.
I was about to say, that scene has haunted me my entire adult life. I remember it so clearly. It's extremely powerful.
That’s not even getting into one of her most recent performances as Annie in Hereditary, because oh GOSH
Daniel Kaluuya is such an amazing actor the crying scene gives me goosebumps and i can feel the pain chris (his character) is in i will always get goosebumps watching that scene Daniel is so amazing
You can tell Leo is a born actor
Acting Coach breaks down kids intense scenes
Sounds Great!
Yes I’d love to see E.T, Where the Wild Things Are, Beats of the Southern Wild, IT (original and remake), Stranger Things, Room, Stand By Me, The Haunting of Hill House/Bly Manor to name a few.
YES
Was really hoping to see Will Smith's scene in The Pursuit of Happyness. Should have won an oscar for that scene, alone.
Ah yes!
I once walked into a room by mistake and an actress of some renown was in there crying. It broke my heart to see how sad she was, but I'd intruded so I apologized and left, and won't say who it was. Since then when I see her in movies and her character cries, it takes on another dimension. Sometimes, maybe it's sense memory (I have no actor training), when the character she plays cries it breaks my heart again because there's something exactly the same as when I saw her, other times it's sad, fits in with the story, is moving but not as intense. Nothing is fake, either way it's moving, tells the story, but one way is perhaps a bit more traumatic. I thought this might contribute to this subject.
Joseph Gordon Levitt's crying before surgery in 50/50 made me cry. Even his freakout scene made me cry
ok but where’s Timothée Chalamet’s crying scene in the end of Call me by your name?
He was perfect 😌
I wonder if it's easier for actors to cry like that.... Just put the camera on them and let them experience the emotion as it comes, instead of having them need to get there off camera then call action and sort of "enter" the scene supposedly already in the emotion they need to be at.
@@JazzyNym that’s actually such an interesting question.
It might depend on the actor/tress.
I almost forgot about that scene. This too.
get better taste
Emma Thompson's acting in Love Actually deserves to be on this list. And also of course Meryl Streep's acting in the choice scene of Sophie's Choice. They always make me cry.
Every time I see "acting coaches" or "voice coaches" react to something, I always look for clips to see if they're really good at what they're coaching.
You should! (The Chubbuck Technique)
OMG MISS JONNA! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU! I REMEMBER THE CLASSES I TOOK WITH YOU!!!
I may be late but Michelle Fairley's red wedding succumb still haunts me today. Catelyn stark's cry must be one of the most iconic scenes in GOT.
“PLEEEASEE” so much pain in her delivery. I totally agree, it was so haunting
This is the greatest, iconic cries acting moment i ever experienced in cinema/tv.
- Leonardo Dicaprio (Inception)
- Sean Penn (Mystic River)
- Cassie Affleck (Manchester by the Sea)
- Daniel Kaaluya (Get Out)
- Matthew Mcconaughey (Interstellar)
- Michelle Fairley (GoT, Rains of Castamere ending)
- Travis Fimmel (Vikings, S2E1 ending)
I'm surprised there's no Toni Collette or Claire Danes in this list.
+
Which movie should they have picked for each? I am curious what your picks would be then. 🙂
@@danielleking262 I recently rewatched Romeo & Juliet, and Claire's performance is really breathtaking. She's also great in Brokedown Palace. And while I don't watch the series, I hear she doesn't disappoint in Homeland either.
As for Toni, I'd say Hereditary and The Sixth Sense. Also, she's amazing in the series The United States of Tara.
Claire Danes is such a realistic crier.
I wish Ryan Gosling's scene in the Notebook was a part of this video. The scene where he says "what do you want?" I always tear up. I felt his frustration
I wanted to see her analyse Adam Driver's crying scene in Marriage Story
Just what i was thinking
Omg yes
Oh god yes. Driver killed it
SAME
and ryan gosling in blue valentine.
Florence Pugh's performance in Midsommar would've been a good addition for this!
I would personally love to see a review of Philip Seymour Hoffman sitting in his car, completely losing it in Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, after his dad finally apologized to him following years of neglect. That had to be one of rawest "outburst" scenes I've ever seen.
Leonardo when he played a drug addict was a lot that scene was just a lot. Amazing.
This was a cool discussion but grotesque was a bit harsh describing Viola Davis's performance. Yes it was snotty, yet it was an outpouring of emotion due to pent up resentment and so on, that was the point. Idk
Maybe I understood it wrong, but I saw the "grotesque" as a form of praise in that analysis. Like the actress is so invested that the emotions come out in the "ugly" way that they would in reality. As an actor in that kind of situation, you wouldn't want your emotional outburst to look pretty.
Viola Davis does that a lot tho, watch How to get away with murder and she did a scene crying like that too
@@saramoreira6176 she said she can’t help it. The snots will come out 😭😂
One thing Viola is gone do is snot and sob 😭🤭😂
@@TimoteoDeBaum a
A video when the coach analyze the confrontation between the Hero and the Villain of the movie, if there is hate, etc.
This was so good, you should do RUclipsr apology videos next! 😭
LMAO
I really wish Dylan O'Brien's performance in the maze runner when chuck died and Nina Dobrev's one right before Elena burned her house down were shown in this
ahhhh i loved that scene in hustlers!! thank you i enjoyed watching this
Viola Davis's fences scene is to me the most iconic real time cry. Come on she's the queen of a snotty nose cry.
To bad that the friends monica and rachel crying is not included
Awesome breakdown, this is fantastic way of gauging an actor's capacity and versatility.
I’d love to see a psychologist react to therapy session scenes in films. Maybe bad therapists like in “What about Bob?” or something like that, so we can see how good/bad the therapist is and if the clients act realistically.
Abbie Cornish's breakdown scene in Bright Star is one of the best I've ever seen. It's incredibly moving and gut-wrenching.
OMG. Johnna was my acting coach. I wasn’t actually wanting to be an actor, but it helped with my anxiety.
Every time I see Leo’s characters cry it makes me so sad because he’s such a great actor…
Love these insider videos
Awesome! Glad to hear it!
*Proceeds to cry*
One of my favorite crying scenes that really got to me was from six feet under with Claire the very last scene of her in the car about to head east. She does like this weird laugh/cry because she’s terrified about what she’s about to do. And hell I seriously felt like that was me like I could literally picture myself doing that exact emotion and just thinking about turning back a million times even though you don’t see that. You just know she’s about to have that in the back of her head the entire ride. It was so human and so heart breaking but exciting and brave.
I just saw Beautiful Boy with Steve Carrell and theres this moment when he gets teary eyed watching his son leave the restaurant, knowing hes lost him to addiction and theres nothing he could do. The shot of his face lasted maybe 6 seconds but it was so powerful. It's the kind if cry you see on your dad's face when he's just completely lost a battle and has a moment of vulnerability and gentleness that you didnt even know he had. Some of the best acting I've seen.
when steve cries, i bawl 😭✋🏻
More of these episodes please!!!!!!
Love this review, half way through also first time I've seen someone compliment Nicolas Cage so thoroughly :) refreshing
ACTING COACH BREAKS DOWN SCENES DEPICTING SUBSTANCE ABUSE OR ADDICTION
That's a Great one!
Great analysis!
Thank you!
the fact that i could watch these acting videos all day. the silent film test was particularly interesting to consider !!
Viola Davis is one of the best actresses I’ve ever watched.
Daniel Kaluuya is such an amazing actor. I got my bf into the movie Queen&Slim and the scene where he’s in the snow after a someone got shot (don’t want to add spoilers), his facial expression said it all without words. I kept saying to my bf “look at his face here!” I love anything he is in. I remember him from his Skin days and that ep in Black Mirror. Amazing, every time ☺️
Posh Kenneth!
He's always gonna be Tealeaf for me
Daniel Kaluuya is a really good actor
My heart wrenched immediately at Leo's crying face 😣😣 what an actor
I love this!
wait where's kim k crying? it's literally one of the best I've ever seen lol
Would be really interesting to see her thoughts on Mathew McConauhey in the heavy crying scene in Interstellar.
Viola Davis made me cry while watching the scene again in the video. I love that scene so much.
This is awesome!
Do a part 2 please! This is interesting 🤔
Should have seen korean’s tv drama crying acting. I swear their actress only have one crying method which is bawling and screaming like a five year old children. I ain’t gonna be touch when i saw an adult cry like screaming children.
The wildest thing is my friend (chinese, not korean) cries EXACTLY LIKE THAT! The first time she really let loose in front of me I started laughing because I thought she was joking around, felt really terrible about thay
Yeah part of this is a cultural thing, crying/expression of sadness, grief etc is different in different cultures.
thats how some of us nigerians cry too lol. expressing emotion in the western world is very different from a lot of other places culturally
Hmmm should watch When Camellia Blooms
Belive it or not, how we cry is affected by our cultures.
More ot these please! It helps a lot 🐣
I love these videos
If I hear “physicality” one more time I’ll cry!
My absolute favorite crying scene is in Bright Star with Abbie Cornish crying, “Mama, I can’t breathe.”
God, I LOVE that movie!! So rare to come across some one else who's even seen it, let alone remembers it well enough to sight a specific moment. Abbie and Ben were phenomenal in it, totally deserves more recognition.
Definitely one of the best crying scenes I've ever seen. It was so raw and believable. Heart wrenching to watch.
Been a huge fan of Daniel, especially the episode he was in for Black Mirror was fantastic. His whole monologue is totally heartbreaking
Leonardo did so beautiful on that scene, outstanding like always 🤍
