I still have difficulty wrapping my brain around the fact that "The creator of Ratboygenius was the 12-fingered piano player in Gattaca" is an actual true statement and not a random mishmash of words thrown together in the washing machine of my mind.
As a pianist, I absolutely love this scene. The original piece is Schubert's Impromptu #3, but as the pianist is supposed to have 12 fingers, they added a melody on top you can't play in reality. Actually, you don't need 12 fingers to play it but 3 hands ! This is such a beautiful piece, that catches both lovely and dramatic sides. Masterpiece !
A lot of it could be done with hand crossings. However, we see one point on camera where there's no hand crossing and a two-octave spread in the right hand would be needed.
This true, one extra finger gets you over another octave up? I can do a variant where I cross my left hand over to do some of the higher notes sounds cool
@@adamwarlock8263 yeh do you play the piano? That extra reach you speak of is nonsense, the added notes are a full octave up, way out of reach that another finger would afford you
I haven't watched the movie, but I guess it's so that we don't notice he has polydactyly before the end of the piece EDIT: I watched the movie and it's definitely to reveal it dramatically

Never thought the statement "The creator of Ratboy Genius (Old Froggy/Ryan Dorin) was the 12 fingered pianist and Hank was the detective in Gattaca" would be true.
GENIAAAALSTE Interpretation! FANTASTISCH! Herr Schubert hätte sich über DIESES "Stück" SEEEHR EFREUT!!! nur: WO kriegt manN die NOTEN davon???*pliiiz!*
I have no information about Ryan, can somebody give me some? We're doing powerpoints for school on our favourite composers and I don't even have a photo
So I have basically just been trying to figure out what the story is with the ratboy genius series because I want to know if it is ironic or serious and who the intended audience is, and it lead me here, which appears to be a dead end
AH NO I JUST HEARD HIM SWEAR THAT'S WEIRD I'VE NEVER HEARD HIM SWEAR BEFORE LIKE I DON'T CARE ABOUT SWEARING BUT RYAN DORIN WAS THE CREATOR OF MY CHILDHOOD
"Twelve fingers or one, it's how you play" is a strong candidate for the dumbest line in all of film. Hey, Michael Jordan, two arms or none, it's how you shoot!

i just came here after learning this too!!!
So many big name actors here... they must all be honored for the chance to share a scene with the creator of ratboygenius

@@peterwood2633 it provides him with the extra reach between pinky and thumb
@@adamwarlock8263 yeh do you play the piano? That extra reach you speak of is nonsense, the added notes are a full octave up, way out of reach that another finger would afford you
@@peterwood2633 i can reach an octave and a half. why shouldnt an extra fingie allow the reach for 2
...And then he went on to become one of the most legendary animators on RUclips...
So the person apparently in this scene is the same person who made Ratboygenius
That's actually why I looked this up.
Seymour Butts Which person exactly?
+The Weirdest of Cons
The pianist.
Someguy on RUclips Jesus, that's trippy.
So I'm not the only one who did a research
Knock knock it's me, the Ratboy Pianist!
LMAO, the only reason i found this video
"whats your number you fu*king flat foot" -Eugene
Why can't we see his hands? Watching a pianist's hands while he plays is one of the most mesmerizing and satisfying things in the world!
Flamery Blurs Because he doesn't actually have 12 fingers so they wouldn't be able to fake it
I haven't watched the movie, but I guess it's so that we don't notice he has polydactyly before the end of the piece
EDIT: I watched the movie and it's definitely to reveal it dramatically
Look up "Horowitz Schubert Op 90 No 3", then click the first video. It's the exact same song, played much better by a master
i love schubert's piece and the new melody line they added is just so original and beautiful!
welp, apparently this man brought us ratboy genius.
thank you.
All this time and I've never noticed, that the cop is Hank!! Uncanny!!
"Jesus Christ, Marie! The man was injured, not crippled!"
This man is talented. Someone bring him some potato knishes
Impromptu in G♭ major, Op.90 No.3, Schubert
Horowitz plays it much better
Brendel plays it masterfully, worth a listen for sure.
I’m working on it now myself and the way he can let that melody float is just amazing.
Beautiful
Holy shit, the things you’ll learn late at night...
You just know after she says the piece can only be played with 12 fingers, Vincent is thinking "says who?"
Love how every single comment is ratboygenius YES
YES WE WON

"That piece can only be played with 12"
Rat Boy has got 12 fingers. Explains some things.
Such a brilliantly executed film in every bloody way.
1:39 Hank before he went to work for the DEA
It's Ryan Dorin!!!
Ratboy Genius!
This is your daily reminder that this is the same guy who wrote a song about loving and making Potato Knishes and Little black squash balls.
Knock knock it’s me the R A T B O Y G E N I U S
*knock knock*
That guy looks like Hank from breaking bad xd
It is him
lol he wanted his number
That was Hank from Breaking Bad! Lol!
Hank's above all of these sussy bakas
knock knock its me
Never thought the statement "The creator of Ratboy Genius (Old Froggy/Ryan Dorin) was the 12 fingered pianist and Hank was the detective in Gattaca" would be true.

It's serious and if you want to know more look at the interviews on the ratboy genius channel
I can tell you’re a kid… it’s not ironic. Yea the animation is pretty bad and off putting but the stories behind it are surprisingly enthralling
@@XxPepper17xX i always wondered what rat boy was tbh
Little King John Fugue in D Minor is too good to be ironic
Oh shit Hank Schrader
1:34 I came here for Ryan Dorin, but WAIT A MINUTE IS THAT DEAN NORRIS?
Don't lie to me, Walt! Sussy baka.
Yay, for Ratboy Genius!
I turn
little black worms
into centipedes.
what the hell is ratboygenius?
A surrealist and campy animated series on youtube that was created by the pianist
The true surrealist himself, ratboygenius
Hermoso 🌎🌎🇲🇽🩸🩸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Right after this, RUclips algorithm suggested a BBC story on a family who all have 12 fingers each …
AH NO I JUST HEARD HIM SWEAR THAT'S WEIRD I'VE NEVER HEARD HIM SWEAR BEFORE LIKE I DON'T CARE ABOUT SWEARING BUT RYAN DORIN WAS THE CREATOR OF MY CHILDHOOD
Ryan was the guy playing the piano.
Jonathan Joestar I know man
Gattaca 12 --- Fingered pianist
1:40 policeman is dean norris from breaking bad
You know at some point, someone asked the piano player to play "Rush E".
Imagine having both parents being casted as a top members of and obscene Eugenic society... yes, im watching you maya...
not a twelve inch pianist?
"the person in this scene is ratboygenius" Ethan hawk??
I see here the connection with Breaking Bad...
Knock Knock
Does this piece have a name?
Schubert, Impromptu #3

And who can forget Dear Old Ratboy
Am i the only one who feels like a dingleroot because they didnt know Dean Norris was in here, my bad i meant Hank AKA A.SAC Schrader
Nah, I felt like an idiot because the pianist is actually T h e R a t B o y G e n i o u s

"Twelve fingers or one, it's how you play" is a strong candidate for the dumbest line in all of film. Hey, Michael Jordan, two arms or none, it's how you shoot!
Don't take it literally, he meant 5 or 6 fingers does not really matter, but more how emotionally the pianist is implied in his play.
You're missing the point of the line. It is an allegory for the entire movie.
@@atypicalambience3487He's not missing anything. The line is extremely stupid.
It's only stupid if you don't know what an analogy is. @@4rumani
Gattaca did nothing wrong
