Vince Vaughn Breaks Down His Most Iconic Characters | GQ 
Развлечения
I worked as a doorman at a nightclub, one night Vince comes in with his wife and I get stationed in his section. Not only does he take the time to have a fifteen minute conversation with me, initiated by him, he tracks me down before he leaves and tells me what an amazing time he had and thanks me personally for taking care of his party. Class act all the way.
Prove it
If this is true that’s amazing and something to cherish and he is very humble
That's awesome man
I’m so jealous!!!!!
And then everyone clapped.
"the painting was a gift, Todd, I'm keeping it"
I love that part
Lets play tummy sticks

"where is she?..
is she still in the house??.."
Vince Vaughn being cast in Old School and therefore making him a go-to comedy actor was a gift to all of us
I really love how he can talk about all of his characters without constantly saying ummm….ummmmm, he actually knows what he’s going to say, and he uses his words and you can tell by that, he’s extremely intelligent. He is extremely focussed on what he’s saying, and can articulate it to a higher degree than I’ve heard most people do.
Well all of his characters are himself so there's not much to think about
There's a lot of editing in these videos if you pay close attention.
@trequor
Lol!
Seriously not much "acting" really going on in a Vince Vaughn role.
They’ve been edited out, bud.
Agreed. Very articulate. If noticed a lot of his dialogue on Swingers was actually his conversations or jokes that got transposed. Pretty cool.
If you like this you should hear him on WTF w/ Marc Maron podcast interview. He's got a razor sharp wit and off the cuf zingers. Their banter is really funny.
This guy is the Uncle we all wish we had.
Haha this is funny cause he actually is my uncle
Its funny because he looks just like my uncle..
He’s actually my uncles uncle. Which is pretty funny too...
Try husband please
@@camdenboyle Really?
Literally was one of the kings of comedy movies during the early 2000’s
Weren't you 2 years old?
@@blackbird7481 4 but who’s counting ...ig u
@@blackbird7481 so he's young and full of wisdom 🤷♂️
Can everyone just listen to what he says about relationships?!
@@jinwooklee9262 Maturity and growth
Is it just me or does Vince Vaughn have far more in depth analysis of the characters he's played then most other actors?? 🤔
I was wondering if that’s a reason why he doesn’t do so many roles.
It's his politics. He doesn't walk in lock-step with the industry and conform to the Hollywood political standard. @@acauto247
@@acauto247probably doesn’t accept a lot
Oh man when he started a monologue during a movie, you stopped and listened to every word like it was gold. He is a boss.
Vince's depiction and explanation of "The Break-up" was spectacular
Though I thought some of it was contrived, like the acapella group.
@Jerome Lenovo you alright, Jerome?
@Jerome Lenovo your dad loves you, just talk to him.
Not to play off of the stuff above me but I gotta say this was a wasted opportunity to use the word phenomenal
It was so money
Wedding Crashers and Dodgeball should be considered two of the greatest comedies ever made.
Literally might be my 2 favorites
@@LickMyLovePump11 hahah, chill bro
There's some painfully funny scenes in Wedding Crashers so I would have to agree. Even after seeing the 'under table' scene probably 10 times it still has me on the floor! The looks on their faces was (Isla and Vince) were spectacular 😄😄
@@LickMyLovePump11 you shut your mouth when you're talking to me!
@@LickMyLovePump11 just suggest some other movies that might be worth checking out instead of being condescending.
Vince Vaughn’s characters are always so human and so relatable.. just part of Vince Vaughn’s greatness
Lester Long ?
And then you have Brawl on Cell Block 99 🤣
Starsky and Hutch, Anchorman?
@@disf5178Love him in Clay Pigeons. Very underrated movie
@@brettweirmon6097
Indeed
I think this is one of the best breakdowns, he actually explains the characters and what he did while playing them to make them authentic
Y'all remember Starsky & Hutch? To this day I'll defend that movie. Great performance by Vaughn and the rest of the cast, and really funnny.
Did that movie get a lot of hate? I thought it was absolutely brilliant
Gotta love starsky and hutch
@@okilladmityouarerightbut4827 I don't think it did, but I don't feel like it's a movie that is remembered like Dodgeball and Anchorman
Huuutch, Huuutch, HUTCH 😡
I always thought that movie was hilarious
Really insightful, well-spoken guy. Definitely seems like he has a lot of passion for what he does.
one of the funniest actors i’ve ever watched, love most everything i’ve seen him in.
of course, he is a high IQ Republican.
@@derykwilson139 oh, so he’s the one.
A lot of passion maybe but definitely has no talent
His analysis has given me a new appreciation for the job.
Brawl in cell block 99 is absolutely game breaking in acting class. Vince deserved an Oscar for this.
It’s so incredible how articulate and thoughtful he is. He was a huge influence on me with his deep and witty humor. I still use his jokes and lines to this day. I miss the early 2000s so much.
Shut your mouth!
For real...
You would have loved the 80s and 90s. Everything has gotten drastically worse since the 00s. Unbelievably so....
Swingers is a great time capsule of the age before social media, when you really had to just have the courage to walk up to someone and meet them. I miss that time.
I am 45 and I can remember many a Saturday nights watching Swingers before going out to the clubs some 20 plus years ago.
@@timlawrence7204 Agreed, I am 36 and my uncle who is ten years my elder would put on Swingers before we went out to the bars when I was a young 21 year old. It was money.
I'm 51 and happily got to experience those days...for better or worse. Still, even striking out, it's miles ahead of swiping left/ right. I saw Swingers in the theater and to this day it's still in my top 10 movies
And a subtle reminder not to leave a dozen messages on the answering machine of the girl you just met that night in the bar.
@@lancemannion4113 It's money, baby.
I think that Mr Vaughn is a criminally underrated actor. We all know he has comedy chops. However, he also has tremendous range. The barracks scene in Hacksaw Ridge is spectacular and one of the most wonderfully over-the-top yet believable Staff Sergeant characters since Full Metal Jacket.
Here, it’s plain to see he’s passionate about what he does and loves getting into the core of what the story, and his character, is truly about.
Well said
agreed. a very talented actor with alot of range
Dude killed it in Brawl in Cell Block 99 and Dragged Across Concrete
Yup! He's got good movies and great movies, not a single bad one
Watch brawl in cell block 99. Very good film and he’s fantastic in it.
I always saw Vince Vaughn as a comedian, to hear him say there was doubt about his comedic abilities before a couple movies in the early 2000s is just... mind blowing to me.
God I wish he made more movies. Hands down one of my favorite actors
Usually in these the actor looking back at their roles talks about the behind the scenes stuff of the movie, it's a refreshing change for the actor to talk in depth about the actual character they were playing.
Vince has always been a very well spoken and articulate person. He’s a great person to listen to about his films cause they always mean so much more to him than the average person.
Definitely the deepest analysis of his characters compared to all the other actors I’ve seen doing these.
Easily. Was not expecting that either. Vince is a gem.
@Joshua Hammond yeah, that would have worked better. I’ll edit. Thanks!
You can tell that Vince is grateful for his career and truly loves the process for sure
Matt Steffen ** watch Nicholas Cage interview
@@shotator6026 I would also say Ed Norton’s was fun because he really seems to think of the movies in an artful way. Like what he’s trying to do is have his character be as flushed-out and deep as possible.
Amazing to see one of these actors ACTUALLY breaking down their characters not just telling stories.
It's like he understood the question lol
Vince came prepared with some impressive and well-worded explanations for all of his films. Big fan of his stuff!
Wedding Crashers is hands down one of the best romantic comedies ever. Seen it dozens of times.
Agreed
Probably hundreds of times in 15 years for me
Did you hear what I said Stage 5 virgin clinger let’s go.
So many legendary scenes. The scene where he gets jacked off during dinner stands out for me 😂
"Try getting jacked off in front of the whole family!!"
@@Manwitdamoustache "I'm gonna go ice my balls and spit up blood, team player"
I could hear Vince talk about his films for hours. So fascinating and such great insight. He remains one of the coolest in the industry.
@Joey B can you go a day without bringing up YOUR political beliefs for literally no reason?
Can everyone just listen to what he says about relationships?!
He seems like a guy you would want to be friends with. There aren't many like that, these days.
A fricking legend. Himself and Owen Wilson have put of laughter out in to the world.
Couples retreat was one of my favorites with Mr. Vaughn definitely a classic
I've seen Wedding Crashers 30 times. And still laugh my balls off every time. Thats when you know a comedy is great .
Wedding Crashers is one of his best 😎🥂
Old skool too 😂😂👍
I came here to see if anyone else appreciated that movie as much as I did. It's still one of my favorite movies until this day.
Great movie but everyone should check out "Made" which he didn't comment on here.
@@daga11 How do you lose a carpet cleaning van? Lol
Yup
He's always been awesome and Brawl in Cell Block 99 is underrated
True Detective season 2, Vaughan performance was his greatest. Incredible
I don’t think he gets enough credit for how funny he is. Dude is hilarious!
I wanted to like but it’s at 69 so that’s fun and funny
He's clearly one of the more insightful, thoughtful, focused guys in the business. I hope his new stuff does great and we get to see him in a lot more in both drama and comedy.
We gotta keep this man safe. So underrated. Frickin legend.
Vince seems like a really interesting and smart guy, what he was saying about relationships is great advice for people in general.
I would have loved to hear his thoughts on The Internship, Couples Retreat, Four Christmases and especially an overlooked movie that my wife and I love, The Watch. He's great in that with Ben Stiller and Jonah Hill.
I’m watching the watch as we speak 🤣
“Why did you take your eyes off the road to sing” 😂😂😂😂
These were the only movies I cared to hear about tbh
And ‘The Prime Gig’…
i was waiting for the four christmases bruh
One of the coolest guys to ever come out of Hollyweird.
I love how confidently he speaks. I have come to loathe the current fashion of making every statement sound like a question. Vince communicates like a real adult man and its refreshing!
You can tell he really loves and appreciates the art of acting. Each character has a lot of thought put into them
Brawl in Cell Block 99... His best role and one of the best movies you've never seen
Super underrated!!!
literally no one talking about this great movie in the comments. I had to scroll down 5 meters to find yours.
An absolutely stellar film.
dudes dialed in so many roles. Love how he has his own backstory to almost every character he's played.
A true professional
Very talented actor and film guy. Seems like a nice bloke too.
Oh man this became like a therapy session haha
I bet he does a killer Christopher Walken impersonation
Brawl in cellblock 99 is an absolutely incredible film. I really, really enjoyed it.
This entire series by GQ is sooo informative. Every actor has a different journey on how they got to where they are today.
Did they skip his role in Mr & Mrs Smith. Yooooo he was so funny in that movie.
one of my favorite movies. guilty pleasure.
MOM
That's not really an iconic character he played
asinloveyunz.link
That’s Jennifer’s favorite movie too
Dodgeball one of my favorite movies ever 😂😂😂
@Kazoushi patches o houlihan was amazing 😂
That’s funny
@Kazoushi remember the 5 D's -- Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and....dodge...
This is Patches O’Houlihan and remember.....take care of your balls and they’ll take care of you.
“Whose Steve the pirate?”
We need a new Vince Vaughn comedy movie in our lives right now
Could watch any Vince Vaughn film, he's entertaining and down to Earth and that comes across in his characters. Wedding Crashers is one of my all time favorites.
if you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball lmfao
I've watched a few of these videos and Vince Vaughn is really going above and beyond. Many actors are much more vague about their process, but he's really getting into it.
I've had a crush on Vince Vaughn for years. I love him in movies. I watched the Break-up the other day, for the 50 millionth time, and Mr and Mrs Smith too :)
He is so good in Freaky (2020). He plays two characters and he is brilliant!
I love his performance in hicksaw ridge
Honestly I thought he could have got an Oscar nod for supporting actor in that.
Yeah, it was weird that I had no idea he was in the movie until I saw it.
He’s really good in Brawl in Cell Block 99 as well (really gory slow burn) and Dragged Across Concrete (talkative drama/thriller)
nobody survives even one bit And also Hacksaw Ridge, too, as well...
@@Retseadog I haven’t seen brawl in cell 99 yet, but I heard it’s fantastic
Four Christmases has to be one of my favorite performances of his.
Orlando?
To all VV fans, one of his very best movies was one of his least well known and earliest, he mentions it by name but it's not discussed in the video. 'Return To Paradise', so gripping, he delivers one of the best performances of his career even tho it's early. Great story. If you have not watched it, you are in for a treat, serious drama w/ Anne Heche, Joaquin Phoenix
Vince Vaughn is so tremendously underrated
I really respect Vince Vaughn for both his comedic and dramatic roles. Not all actors are capable of that range. I'll bet he and Bryan Cranston would enjoy kicking it.
Pff dramatic? I mean every his attempt to play a dramatic role was so pathetic. In comedy he at least have a chance to show something (but even there he doesn't always shine)
We love you Vince classic films
Who knew he was a more serious film actor and comedy was secondary
His run of "Hard R" comedies were amazing
Stage 5 clinger LoL
Wedding Crashers was in my Top 5 films to watch weekly while deployed!
A while back i heard someone describe Hollywood stars as either personalities or actors. You either need them to bring a character to life or you need them to be themselves in front of the camera. I used to regard Vince Vaughn as just another personality but this changed all of that. He had so much insight into his roles that it changed my mind. Likewise, I learned that I am woefully unfamiliar with all of his roles and need to seek out more of his movies now.

He was underrated in True Detective. Nice dramatic turn
(nice he gave props to Justin Long; he did an amazing George Harrison in Dewey Cox).
That season of true detective was underrated overall. Overshadowed by the first but I really loved it.
@@Alex-co7cq McAdams was good too in an out-of-character tough cop turn.
@subcomandante marcos They're usually the same thing lol.
One of the most underrated actors of this time! Definitely one of my favorite actors of all time
He's quite an enigma, he's very articulate and loud and fast. It's mesmerizing in a way, I would love it if he was a teacher or lecturer.
He is a very very intelligent and articulate actor.
One of the most versatile and watchable actors of the past 25 years
I liked this a lot - thanks for the insight into how the characters and roles came together!
This was everything! Love Vince and his style of comedy!
To my death bed I will believe Fred Claus was one of the greatest Christmas movies of all time
So underrated!
Without a doubt
I just watched it for the first time. I agree, it's underrated. Very enjoyable
Agreed
Dorothy Mantooth would be so proud 🥺
She is a saint!!
Very underrated comment here.
I can't believe this comment only has 18 likes. Underrated.
I took her out for a lovely seafood dinner and never called her again.
Nicely done ✅
Brawl in Cell Block 99 is brutally brilliant.
Dodgeball is one of the best comedies ever.
I know there's not much affection for Psycho but i really enjoyed it
I love watching these videos cause it shows that even actors who aren’t “acclaimed” still have a ton of passion in what they do
So true! I took a screenwriting class with Michael D. Weiss, who isn't known for making acclaimed movies (Journey to the Center of the Earth is probably his most "acclaimed"), but he was super knowledgeable and passionate about the craft
You think Vince Vaughn isn’t acclaimed?
Vaughn is "acclaimed" though, he's got great range and his comedic performances are top tier.
Everyone do yourself a favour and watch Brawl in Cell Block 99
Seconded. It’s easily his best and most unexpected performance.
And then Dragged Across Concrete
For performance yes, they are amongst his best but as genre films they really are an aquired taste.
Great film, “dragged across concrete” is also worth checking out.
I watched it yesterday and I wanna see it again.
Vince is a surprisingly versatile actor. His comedies are legendary, but he's really talented in dramatic roles, too. His performance in True Detective season 2 was incredible, really makes you connect with the character, almost like he's a Scarface wannabe falling on his face.
Not trying to be a jerk here as I'm generally a Vince Vaughn fan, but I couldn't disagree more. That character and performance was laughably bad. So bad that the showrunner made a public apology for the whole season.
@@thomascolling6330I agree with you
Vince seems so down to earth.
I'd like to see Justin Long do one of these. Talented kid.
42 years old, my guy. Not really a kid anymore.
Exactly!
@@danielw.7776 Yeah he’s in ”old” territory now
@@VictorDude98 Man, he was spooky in Tusk.
Would love to hear him talk about jeepers creepers
Dodgeball, Wedding Crashers, and Old School were on repeat in my dorm for almost all of college haha. Love those movies!
Man I really took the days of raunchy early 2000s comedies for granted...we'll never get another Old School, Wedding Crashers, Superbad, or Hangover (...the first one)
I agree...and the 1st Hangover was the best!
Yeah you can't even make some of these jokes anymore!
I enjoyed Vince sharing his perspective on each character. Great interview 👍
The internship was one of my most enjoyable movies, its sucks he didnt talk about that.
I enjoy it too. But there is nothing particularly special about it. It’s nice to have on if there is nothing else on, and he and Owen Wilson are really good together. But it feels like the “same old thing” but again, enjoyable.
Agree. It was a good one... a second ago we were in a blender 😂😅🤣

Haha,i am waiting for that movie too
I loved that movie, and the watch, both hilarious
Wedding Crashers was one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen to this day. And I think it was mostly because of Vaughn
Yes!! So many funny scenes and one liners
It’s just him throwing 100mph for two and a half hours straight. One of the greatest comedic performances of all-time.
Well he had a GREAT ensemble cast to play off of who were all serious heavyweights themselves....
Owen Wilson
Christopher Walken
Isla Fisher
Rachel McAdams
Jane Seymour
Keir O’Donnell
Bradley Cooper
Carson Elrod
Rebecca DeMornay
Dwight Yoakam
Jennifer Massey
Will Ferrell
The breakfast scene with the pastor was AMAZING....Vince can just talk so fast and carry an entire scene.
Too bad Ferrell stole the show at the end
Dodgeball is actually such a great and funny underdog film. And it's quotable. "If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball!"
Vince Vaughn will always be one of my favorite actors.
Even though they were just small parts, I wish he talked about Anchorman and Starsky & Hutch.
???? Why? Ok..
Dorothy Mantooth is a saint😂😂
You wanna dance Burgundy? I wanna Polka
Two of the best supporting characters of all time, for my money
I will take your mother Dorothy Mantooth out for a nice seafood dinner, and never call her again.
Brawl in Cell Block 99 is by far, his best role. What a movie...
I’ve heard it’s excellent, haven’t seen it yet
That performance in True Detective threw my emotions in a lot of places. Absolutely phenomenal
I never thought someone could have such a deep take on a fluffy film like The Break up
That movie was painful. It wasn’t fluffy at all
@@leslievanhouten ya some brutal parts really, may have seemed fluffier perhaps if 2 other actors did it
This guy’s movie soliloquies are legendary... I’m surprised he never tried standup
Wild wild west comedy tour
@@chrisleone1035 He didn’t preform stand up in WW
@@mikeydubbz1 @chris leone he was the producer of WW and they traveled on buses. Caparulo is hysterical and he had Sebastain before anyone knew about him.
Vince Vaughn and his roles are iconic!!
Extremely articulate interview. So much depth.
I love him and I love him even more now hearing him break down these movies. I thought "The Breakup" was exactly how he described it and one of the best written romantic comedies. Flawed individuals who care about each other but just not mature enough or made too many mistake to salvage a relationship. Brilliant!
How can you leave out Couples Retreat or 4 Christmases like that??
I’m with you Hannah
Agreed
Quite easily
I think most people prefer those are left out tbh
Cause they suck probably
I love these videos, it gives a relatable side to actors that we don’t see often. I think a lot of people forget that they are people too which is sad.
Him, explaining his role in Dodgeball, mind blowing.
Vince Vaughn!!! Ahh I've missed you so much! 💕
He used to grow up in my town and shows up a lot. He’s a super nice guy
"he used to grow up in my town" sounds weird. "he grew up in my town" sounds more correct to me
Highland Park?
@Howard Hassen I already like him more after hearing that. Thanks for sharing.
@@basementbastard2314 Buffalo Grove I believe
This is the best “Break Down” video I’ve seen. Vince really goes in depth here. I really appreciate the detail.
