10, best scene of the movie imo, the movie is a bit like Lost, starts well, gets very disjointed in the middle and then rounds off to appear like sheer brilliance when looking back on it.
"A child born in 50 years will stumble across your image flickering on a screen and feel he knows you, like a friend, though you breathed your last before he breathed his first." Holy...this entire dialogue was deep but that was perfection and so true.
I disagree. I think that line would have been better if she had said something along the lines of ‘it’s over now, but your career has given you immortality’ and what makes it a gift is that only he and other actors have that luxury. The theme of people trying to outrun death itself in this movie is ham fisted in my opinion and makes the experience of the actors experiencing the transition from silent movies to talkies- which has the potential to be maudlin enough as it is- positively morbid. An examination of the themes of people adapting to change would have been more understandable from an audience point of view, especially given the movies setting in an industry undergoing a seismic, fundamental change. Also the fact that Pitts character ends the way he does is just needless and unnecessary. It would have been enough to just show him either adapt well to the change or wallow in bourbon and past glories but ffs… blowing his head off in the toilet? And this movies marketed as a comedy? I don’t want to shit on this movie entirely, because it’s interesting and well cast and acted, but some of the criticism of the director not really knowing where his movie or his point was going is warranted in my opinion.
@@superelipticI agree he said himself he’s been the luckiest guy alive and even tho his career was over he was still left with the luxuries I guess it shows his happiness only came from being admired and he had nothing/ no one meaningful to live for besides that The line you said is better I didn’t think the angels and ghosts was that deep
I feel like Brad Pitt read this script and got to this scene and saw himself in this exact scene. He’s an aging movie star. He doesn’t have much time left. The fact the this movie didn’t do well at the box office is just perfect meta.
Actually at least in my case it was the trailer with all the partying and essxentricities that I as a regular person just can't be bothered to watch. If the trailer wasn't about Margot robbie dancing everywhere and these people acting like clowns I think more peoppe would have given it a chance. Regular people can't just spend money on every damn movie that comes out marketing is everything and it failed.
He could definitely relate, as a leading man. But he's established himself so well as a character actor that he'll be acting as long as he wants, like Michael Caine, Christopher Plummer, and a handful of others who reached a level of fame and diversity that they acted in major roles as long as their health held up, into their 90s or until they died.
That right there is why I say Oscars don't mean a thing. It's the impact an actor makes on you every time you see them act that is the real trophy. Yet we strive for something we can hold in our hand
The truth is that he will be alive after he dies, but his interests will change. He will see two eternal paths before him, heaven or hell, and before that there is a long line waiting for each one to have his deeds weighed in order to see his fate. In that eternal situation, we will remember that we lived for a moment on a planet called Earth, and we will regret that moment an eternal regret
@@BilobateDrip thatd why jim carrey subtedly poked at the ridiculousness of atttaining an oscar and quit a few actors that night understood the message he was transmitting.
@@rdalgetaking right out of my mouth. I hate when people see death as something very negative and they complain about it lolll, as if we should just live forever. No one wants to be here forever trust me, it will get really boring and meaningless
@@rdalge 100 years from now, when we're all dead, they will definitely look back and think it was cruel, or at least tragic. The same way we look back at the pre-antibiotics, insulin and vaccinations era in the same way.
Pitt’s work throughout this fantastic, messy, brash, brilliant film is a masterclass in still acting. His eyes tell the story and he’s bound to end up as he does. Everything he says is correct, but it doesn’t matter. He is having a dry spell, but now it’s become a drought. Eleanor is a cockroach, but he’s the one who won’t make it.
Reminds me of this part of the introduction speech given by Daniel Taradash to honour Charlie Chaplin with an honorary Oscar: "A few years ago, Mr. Chaplin said, 'My only enemy is time.' We respectfully disagree. For wherever and whenever there is communication, a screen and an audience, whether here on Earth and now, or in some unfathomable future on some far away star, time is Charlie Chaplin's dearest and eternal friend."
this scene right here is what i want to be in life, I don't care about fame, money or anything pleasurable, I just want to be part of something that can make this world a better place, I just want that, maybe someday someone with come across what I have done and maybe it will affect them in any emotional way. I just hope I can be part of something that can mean something to anybody. Even if only a single soul feels anything coz of me, i'll be happy. What are we, if not just compilation of many emotions put together. I hope I can make a difference in this world, in a positive way.
Best scene of the entire film; a deep reflexion about what it is to be a a star; Jack totally had it during the silent era, when sound came along, he lost It, IT, having it; an intangible, an x factor, that either you have it or you don't
I am aware of the current state of Hollywood and American culture. I am also aware that actors tend to be messed up people. Even so, Jack Conrad should be proud. He helped kickstart the industry that will go on to be America’s dominant art form for more than 50 years.
Scene that made the movie a masterpiece. It’s got it’s over the top stuff but it’s there for a reason, because these small moments then show what happens after those parties are over.
I think it's about mortality. We lose perspective. What's a few years of failure and obscurity when we will spend eternity dead? And of all us who are dead, the movie stars will live. The cruel part is that this movie star felt immortal in life, and now he must face something else.
This movie is a real mind trip, especially by the third act when Toby McGuire comes in, but this scene is one I keep coming back to because I think it encompasses the point of it all in just a couple of minutes. Everything is so well done, from the razor-sharp focus of the camera on Elinor as she dispenses cold hard facts, to the soft, almost misty focus on Jack as he sits there listening to her. He came in thinking he was going to throw his weight around and have the last word, but she comes back hard with a dose of reality. How many people throughout time think they can hold on to it forever, or that they have one more good comeback that will keep them relevant? How many people hide from the fact that soon enough they'll be gone? All we have is the short time we're here, and all we can do is make the best of it and be grateful for it if we've made the best of that time. Elinor knew that, but Jack was totally taken off guard by it. This may be the first time he contemplated the fleeting reality of his former glory and even his life, and he ended up taking his own life in the end when he couldn't accept it. My take on it, anyway.
This is great advice to legends of bruce Campbell, you might not making it to the end but you will always be legendary in spririt and who knows whoever might take inspiration on expand on your craft and so on and so on
I don't think so. The landscape of the industry changed, it went from silent movies to talkies, that's much of the reason Brad's character, along with other, was left behind. There isn't anything like that paradigm shift in the future (except maybe A.I.), when VHS came into the living rooms, it didn't change a thing for the actors.
@@Lethallime1234 Before the sound era, a film set was a very different place. While a cameraman filmed the actor/actress, the director just off screen could literally direct almost like a choreographer: "Now do X. Look up. Show more sadness." Etc. The director could even feed the actor or actress lines, since their speaking only showed up as a visual medium. Being a silent movie actor arguably was more like being a ballet dancer or a mime than like being a theater actor or a talkie movie actor: it required a different, visual skillset. Also, Brad Pitt's character was aging, compounding the issue.
One of the greatest, most chilling, monologues in cinema history! The truth in her words cast a chilling shadow over life itself - something none of us can escape!
This movie was a prime example to me why you should not create your whole identity around something finite. Because when the finite wears out, so does your identity. That’s the beauty of religion and raising a family.
Yeah, I don't think Brad Pitt is the greatest actor. He's unbelievably charismatic and fun to watch, but his actual acting often leaves much to be desired.
I would have enjoyed this film more if the character of Conrad hadn't self destructed. It doesn't teach the viewer anything and it is the character not growing just terminating his arch before it can complete. I feel like liberal writers write this schlock like its revalatory and infact its so incomplete its worthless. No one's done till old age or sickness takes them to the grave. Rather we need to understand all things have seasons. you can't kill yourself before the harvest because you are sad summer is ending it misses the point. The great irony of the liberal hollywood that makes these self obsessed works of fiction is how in being obsessed with the painter it misses the point of mortal existance entirely. Rather its the Narcissism/Nihilism feed back loop that seems to be on repeat in so much of our modern fiction.
Look at the response he gave to his wife earlier in the film and the way he approached Elinor earlier on in this exchange. Seemed he treated people critiquing with contempt so to become one himself, a tragic demise in line with real life John Gilbert instead of a long sedentry life before a typewriter is the only way the Conrad character could have panned out. It's sad but this film is an accurate portrayal of early hollywood, characters and scenes are based off real events and people and in those times when the big studios and big stars where finding their feet in the days of less ethics, there will have been no blueprint to handle fame, they were the ones people learn from today..
Kind of a totally bleak situation when you realize that most of his character's silent films are highly implied to have been destroyed at the end of the film due to nitrate film decay and the fact that nearly 75% of all silent films have been lost to time. So he can't even take solace in the fact that his work would "spend eternity with angels and ghosts" since most of it was eradicated over the years.
It's a moot point, besides. Who cares who remembers you after you bite it? Once we die we cease to exist forever. Which is why, in matters like this, it's important to worry about the now and not some arbitrary future you won't even be around for.
@@jase276 I suppose it depends on the person and how they want to be remembered - or not - well after their departure. I think it's fair to say though a significant amount of people want to have some sort of legacy after they're gone, whether it be through simple acts of kindness throughout their life or great works of art.
The movie, as a whole, didn't work - it was a mess - but there were some individual scenes, like this one, that were wonderful. If the film had focused *only* on Jack, for example, it could have been truly great.
I disagree, I actually like it as a whoe, if it was a mess is because that's what that era was about, Babylon is about what a totally decadent, happy, yet miserable and chaotic Hollywood was; then, even way more than now.
2:41 _"... because it's bigger than you ..."_ Yeah. The cruel voice and the dead eyes. Like if that thought was important. Like if it was meaningful and valuable. The cruel voice is from god but the dead eyes are human. Only a god can be this cruel and still being alive. God will say that same sentence while it will be dancing on your gr@ve happily. And there will be much more who never got anything than those who got something what can be taken. The most of us will lose only hopes. And that's the most painful. Living and d@ing in vain.
Nope. When you die, you will not be around to enjoy anything you think or feel, you built. And for those who of us, who pursued nothing but this life’s pleasures…hell will be the home.
Nowadays under every movie clip somebody will say that the acting is a masterpiece. And it's no different with this scene. Masterpiece this, masterpiece that. It has to be one of the most overused words. Anyhow, there are reasons why this movie bombed. Imho Pitt's mediocre acting is one of those reasons.
Movie critic has probably gotta be the most useless profession imaginable. So many great movies have had their sequels scrapped because of them. They have no talent of their own so they leech off that of other's.
Good perf but the writing is laughably bad. Like a parody. Good acting can disguise it a bit but i've seen too many films for it to fool me. This is tripe.
I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THOSE DAMN PYSCHIATRISTS, BUT NONE OF THEM COULD HAVE FOUND WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO ME, U DID AS SOOSN AS JACK CAME INTO THE ROOM, THE TRUTH!

Movie critic has probably gotta be the most useless profession imaginable. So many great movies have had their sequels scrapped because of them. They have no talent of their own so they leech off that of other's.
Good perf but the writing is laughably bad. Like a parody. Good acting can disguise it a bit but i've seen too many films for it to fool me. This is tripe.
Writing is great
Your gay.
Did you mean trite
@@chrisS19019 No i meant tripe, which as an insult means silly and worthless.
Imagine being an ostentatious commenter that’s never contributed great writing to anything…
This is one of the most empty things I've ever heard, it would have been better to have grown up sooner and accepted Jesus.
I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THOSE DAMN PYSCHIATRISTS, BUT NONE OF THEM COULD HAVE FOUND WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO ME, U DID AS SOOSN AS JACK CAME INTO THE ROOM, THE TRUTH! FACING WITH THE TRUTH IS THE MOST GENIOUS THING THAT A HUMANBEING CAN DO, U ARE GENIOUS, MISS! U ARE GENIOUS! AND THANK U FOR SHOWING ME THE TRUTH, BEST AND SINCERE REGARDS
