Conan is such a great host... he can maintain a serious atmosphere as good as he does the fun ones. no slapping of the table, no over-saturated fake laugh
We need more movies like Ford V Ferrari. The vibe and experience feels so surreal. The background score, editing, acting, cinematography, the entire movie makes stick to your screens. No CGI, huge action sequences, just a real life tale being told to use beautifully and yet not in too romantic way. Just a perfect blend of all elements to make a great movie.
im sorry to destroy your world there was alot of cgi in the movie, its not a bad thing its just the way it is! Like poeple say theres no cgi in top gun maverick wich is also completly false
everyone is talking about christian, he is outstanding. But in this movie I really enjoyed matt damon performance, so silent and sentimental... in a certain way he enhances chistian's
Matt Damon is a really fine actor and I agree the fact he's not flashy and doesn't do those extreme method techniques makes people underrate him sometimes.

If you haven't seen it take a look at Graham Norton show when they were promoting Monuments Men: Bonneville, Damon, Murray completely hammered; great stuff

He probably was more leaning toward being like that when he was younger, but chill comes with age. Earlier in his career, Deniro seemed to almost be like a ghost when it came to an interview, but he's out and about (and has been for several years already) as much as any other regular working actor today.
I luv that Conan called Christian Bale a “shape shifter” cuz he is. Christian Bale is just a phenomenal actor. Regardless of whether you “like him” or not his dedication and process to his craft is awesome. He’s a force to be reckon with and one of my favorite actors.
@@geoffreyjr Because 1) people talk differently within and between regions. 2) Rural Texas covers a shitload of regions. And 3) I mean Tommy Lee Jones specifically, more than he sounds like Carroll Shelby.
Thank you! Exactly. just wrote my comment about this just to find yours. Thought I was the only one surrounded by Bale fanboys... Love Christian Bale, think he is an awesome actor. But it simply is insulting to the actual guest on the show...
Christian bale makes himself more than just a man, he devotes himself to an ideal and if we can't stop him he becomes something else entirely "And what's that?" A Legend, mr. bale
If his joker were a hit, ppl like you would've crazed over his method acting chops. Also, Dallas Buyers Club. The dude's miles ahead of most. But thanks for sharing.
Haha! To be fair that IS what he said but since they were married in around 2000 I have to assume what he meant was, “I’ve known his wife longer than (I’ve known) him.”
even more famously, Jim Carrey literally being Andy Kaufman every single minute of the day on "Man On The Moon". What makes it all the more ridiculous (and much of why Carrey went that path) is because that's 100% the kind of thing Kaufman himself would've done. But it's actually pretty common anymore for actors doing an accent to stay in it the entire day, even chatting with crew, etc. Some of them who in fact can do it flawlessly, like Hugh Jackman doing American for example, he still always such has low confidence that he can do it. In the pantheon of actory behavior, that rates very low as an odd thing to do help your performance.
Matt Damin is really a great actor and a good man. Of course, Bale is awesome in Ford vs Ferrari, one of my favorite actors. However, Matt doesn't get as much admiration as Bale got for this movie. Matt was equally amazing as Shelby. His presence, friendship with Ken and how he fights for him were performed beautifully by him. And on the show too, he is okay with talking about Bale more than him. He needs to be appreciated.
@@kevinw712 yes he does. But has ever done shows like Ellen, Kimmel, Fallon, Corden, Conan etc? No. He stays out of those. There was only a clip of him doing one with Craig Kilborn during Reign of Fire. Compare that with Damon who is constantly stopping by these shows.
I love how Olivia Coleman literally forgets who her character was by the time she's interviewed about a film and Matt Damon delivers a mini-biography on his.
Bale is the one who made it on Hollywood based on been extremely talented for acting, Damon is the dude who made it based on inner circle connections but who basically plays himself ever single time
So you think that Mat Damon played the same in FvF and in Bourn trilogy, or in Oceans' ? I was expecting to see JB in this movie but instead, and to my pleasant surprise I saw someone who is a car builder. He did a hell of a job and although CB is defo a whole different level as an actor, give some credits to MD because he is doing a respectful job. Definately better than Bruce Willis in Trauma Center who basically the guy, clearly, didn't want to be there...
I'm sure Damon would be the very first one to assert that Bale is probably the best complete actor of their generation, but I feel like Damon has shown himself to be a better actor than he generally gets credit for. He doesn't always exhibit this like list of 10 different key elements that wind up being essentially the same for any movie's "leading man". He's trying to navigate a character actor's approach and journey but that often just happens to wind up being the lead role in a given project.
Christian Bale is truly unreal. He gets accolades for it, but imo not nearly enough. But Matt Damon is no slouch either. He has somehow ended up with a lackluster reputation as an actor and I don’t think it’s deserved at all. The Bourne movies may not be earth-shattering films but they’re good and he’s great in them. Same with Martian and good will hunting. He’s made some really good ones.
@@Dinkdownn I agree and said something similar elsewhrre on this forum. I thought he was fantastic in the reboot of True Grit but, of course, everyone was watching Jeff Bridges in that film because his performance was more over the top.
It's really refreshing to see Conan not hiding behind a desk like most late show hosts. His body language is so confident and collected, of course with some random bursts of craziness. 😉😍😘 Loved this video. Thanks Team Coco.
Christian Bale is probably one of if not the best actor in the world in my personal opinion. Just watch the movie Empire of the Sun. In all my 41 years I've never any child actor take on a movie of that magnitude the way he did.
This was an excellent movie!!! Probably better than any I have seen in several years. I have seen it twice and will definately watch it again. I will buy it when its available.
tony james the accent is different from his normal way of speaking. It’s like if Tommy Lee Jones was doing a New York accent, it’s an American accent but quite different.
There are many, many different dialects throughout the UK (& that's without even getting into Scotland and Ireland), much like how we have a few very different sounding ones here in the US. They probably have even more than we do, considering it's less geographical area, what Bale does for this character is a wee bit off from his natural voice. But it's often just very subtle details when it comes to accents.
For some reason when I was watching the clip they showed all I could think is Matt Damon is the guy to play phillip seymore hoffman if that opportunity ever arises in film
I think a lot of people forget that Bale is British. I saw the trailer, his accent is thicker than normal, but it's still closer to his real accent than if he were imitating an American.
I didnt know he was british until a few days ago because he’s so method that’s whatever accent he needs for a role he sticks with for every interview or promo and he usually has an American accent in his roles.
@@michaelmcdonald8452 "Bale has remarked, "I was born in Wales but I'm not Welsh - I'm English"." He was born to English parents. I don't know how much genetic difference there is these days between Welsh and English, but he doesn't consider himself Welsh.

I wasn’t thinking so much genetics as just who he was raised around. as the OP pointed out, he sounds more like himself than he sounds American, but barely.

If you've got one ounce of blood in your veins you will love this movie. It's a true story, the plot, action and acting are brilliant and it took me about six months to come down after watching it.
Matt damon and christian bale are two of my favs. I wish christian would go on these talk shows on day, but he's rly private so i gave up hope long time ago
There's Matt Damon good acting, then there's Matthew McConaughey good acting, then there's Christian Bale good acting, and on top of that, there's the impeccable Daniel Day Lewis-acting, who is just slightly behind the Gary Oldman-acting.
This scene from the movie which was shown here it was so powerful, It was Shelby's way of telling him that "I know who you are and I respect you but I am gonna have to bow down to this guy just so we could turn our dreams true"
I would recommend watching The 24 Hour War documentary before this imo. That way one can tell which parts were dramatized in the movie or which parts were or weren't there, as well as compare the characters vs how they are described in the documentary, what personality they had.
The mind-boggling fact about this story is that Henry Ford II was the grandson of Henry Ford. He was thirty when his grandfather died. Carrol Shelby died in 2012. Just think about it. The entire progress we've achieved from there being no automobiles as such, to the current state of automotive technology, was achieved within less than 2 lifespans.

Bale dominates that FvF scene simply by taking his glasses off.
This scene from the movie which was shown here it was so powerful, It was Shelby's way of telling him that
"I know who you are and I respect you but I am gonna have to bow down to this guy just so we could turn our dreams true"
I saw this movie, first one I went to see for months, it was a great film.
I love the fact that it's a story about a rowdy English cowboy and a proper Texas gentleman.
the movie is fantastic and now another racing favorite movie
I would recommend watching The 24 Hour War documentary before this imo. That way one can tell which parts were dramatized in the movie or which parts were or weren't there, as well as compare the characters vs how they are described in the documentary, what personality they had.

mATT AND cHRISTIAN WERE FABULOUS INTHIS MOVIE...wow!
The mind-boggling fact about this story is that Henry Ford II was the grandson of Henry Ford. He was thirty when his grandfather died. Carrol Shelby died in 2012. Just think about it. The entire progress we've achieved from there being no automobiles as such, to the current state of automotive technology, was achieved within less than 2 lifespans.
