@@buggiemara4902 I figured that some subtle CGI or even some sort of prosthetic eye mask was used during the overdose scene. The dog's eyes are just so drugged out and lifeless! How'd the heck they do that? Hard to believe that it's purely training.

the aspirin scene blew me away i was sitting in the theatre and the only thing on my mind was "how the fuck did they do this? is that dog even real" wow
There are french interviews with the dog's coach on YT, they explain that for this particular scene they trained the dog to play dead first by teaching him how to lay down on the side, then by letting his head feel heavy, then the body. For the eyes it was CGI and the vomit part there was a tube beneath the head of the dog, and someone just had to push a button to make all the nasty stuff come out of the tube. You can find the videos explaining the training labeled as [ "Anatomie d'une chute": on a rencontré le chien Messi qui joue Snoop dans le film ] or [ Les coulisses d'Anatomie d'une chute : Messi, le chien à la Palm Dog ] But there are no English subtitles only French. Hope my answer helped ^^
The OD scene is fucking crazy. The way he pretends to freak out and wake up from the imaginary overdose, sort of stagger to his feet, its truly incredible. Saw somebody mention that this was the best dog acting they had ever seen which prompted me to look him up, and I dont think they are wrong
@@crabstick250 It's not the actress' dog. It's a professional dog who works in movies, with a trainer named Laura. Pure skill. Pure intuition. Pure craft :)
The director said that the vomit was cgi added in post. Which for me doesn't really lessen any of his acting because I assumed it was a tube fed underneath him anyway
@@MrTriplej79 exactly right! Like the reactions don’t seem fake at all or like one of those scene where you can sense the trainer signalling them in the background to do certain actions.
Credit needs to be given to Snoop's handlers and directors themselves. This dog's training and direction is phenomenal. I went to film school and they said to never work with dog's ir children because they cannot provide you with the performances you need, but ckesrly with rhe right handlers you can. But maybe Snoop is just special ❤
they froze his face with CGI the same way they freeze humans when they are trying to play dead but cant hold there breathe long enough or if they are having trouble not blinking
The look, the facial expressions, the attention he pays, the movement of the ears... This is the kind of reaction your dog gives to you, not in a film This dog is phenomenal, congratulations to him and the trainer !
Legit, this was my thought too. I couldn't believe how good the pupper was, the acting in the vomit scene was so good I had to pause and shout at the boy through the screen for doing something so horrible just to prove a point. My dog even reacted at my emotions, so I had to calm him down too! The boy's acting was decent but the dog just blew me away. I genuinely think they should create a new category for Best Performance by an Animal. What a good boy!
I mean realistically he's a child in a absolutely crazy situation trying to figure out the truth behind the death of his own dad, realizing his whole view on his family has been completely wrong. It's not hard to understand where that action came from.
His performance reminds me of Jed, who acted in films like white fang and the Thing but was in tons of movies while he was alive because he was uniquely talented. Most dogs have their tails cgi'd because they can't stop wagging them, but he had a strange stillness about him that made him stand out. This dog has that same thousand yard stare.
i immediately thought of jed when watching this. it's absolutely the expression in the face and the body movement. many dog actors are very well trained but you can tell they are depending heavily on the trainer and due to the precision of commands they tend to look a bit "mechanical" in their movement and faces. most people can't tell and so their acting work is perfectly fine but not exceptional. jed and messi have a way about them that feels like they are interpreting the instructions given by the trainer in their own unique way, the same as a human actor might do with a script.
@@someembarrassingLPs Sorry to reply three weeks behind, but something else Messi here definitely shares with his "phenomenal animal actor" predecessor is his complete lack of looking at the camera. The one time in The Thing where Jed looked directly into the camera, it fit with the story and actually worked to add tension to the scene and make the audience uncomfortable - pushing toward the common compliment Jed was given by his trainers and costars that any move he made, that would be "just something an animal actor will do" to almost every other animal in film, seemed to fit perfectly with the character he was playing. And now, throughout Anatomy of a Fall, Messi's never making eye contact with the camera either. He's fantastic. There are dogs in Horror that can't be focused on directly when playing dead, especially for such long shots, because they can't keep still or make it as believable as Messi managed. Whether that's because he's a Border Collie and Jed was a Wolfdog, or because he and Jed are/were actually aliens disguised as Good Boys, us humans will never know. But they definitely have a special talent for the roles they've been given.
amazing handlers, beautiful performance in this film snoop. the dog & handlers all need an oscar for this because it is truly a work of art. regardless of understanding the language, the acting between the son & especially snoop the dog is phenomenal. breathtaking !!
Like can somebody tell me? How the hell he did the choking, eyes , and the tongue… Like did they really poisoned him? HOOOWW HE ACTED BETTER THAN MOST OF THE ACTORS NOW?
He did two months of training for that scene but I'm still flabbergasted at how he was able to do it. What as seriously impressive performance from Messi.
Guys! I found out today he didn’t win an Oscar but he did win the Palm Dog Award at Cannes 2023 (which has been around since 2001) so fret not he is indeed a internationally acclaimed award winning Good Boy 🏆
the most impressive, for me, is him hitting all the marks during the long shot. Like stopping, maneuvering relative to the camera, looking at people etc. 1:26 like thats difficult for a person...

Not a good idea. Producers would start racing to get it, leading to a lot of animal abuse.

His trainer said she taught Snoop (real name Messi) to act the overdose scene with lots of pets and treats. :)
“Never work with children or animals” yeah because they’ll never be as good as snoop
Snoop is the character, the actor's name is Messi
Nah, the true adage goes like this: "never work with children or animals because they will outshine you."

@crabstick250 the one where the actress owns the dog is the lady from The zone of interest, thats why he followed her everywhere
That last scene and the part where snoop just comforts her it actually broke meeeee
That unblinking unmoving thousand-mile stare in Snoop's eyes during the OD scene was so haunting.
I was genuinely shocked at how good this dog is at acting?
I am in complete shock, the scene when he looks at the picture....like, how???????????
Why didn't he win any awards?!
@@Raheel_Ishaq He won the Palm dog award at Cannes
For me more than the playing dead, it’s the vomiting and instantly sprinting backwards out of fear and confusion. HOW TF DID HE DO IT SO WELL!!!!

He played dead so well that I cried!
I haven't seen the movie but almost started crying when I thought he was dead. Now that's is some effective acting!!
best animal actor...the aspirin scene! behind the scene please!
Lassie don't have nothing on Messi. Kudos to the actor and his trainer.
The best dog acting I've seen since The Thing (1982). It's almost scary how good Messi's acting is.
It's amazing how expressive this dog was!
That last scene killed me. Whether it was or wasn’t scripted, it was a magical scene all the same.
The last is actually his trainer telling him to jump up on the bed and lay down
From what ive heard that was just improvised. The dog just did that
@@cheycheyfriend247 no i saw his trainer and she said she commanded to do it
Probably the best acting from a dog since The Thing remake.
This dog definitely needs an Academy Award, by far the best performance I have ever seen
Snoop did it. Deserves best actor.
A masterclass in canine performance right here.
I’m so happy I am not the only one that was amazed 😅
The overdose scene was a real dog?! What the fuck
Yep he was trained to act sick. The vomit was added in with CGI but everything else was just good training
They need to have a Biggest Bag of Treats Award for phenomenal dogs like this! This dog should win one!
Thank you for uploading this!! WE LOVE SNOOP 🧡
I don't think it's even far to assume this dog was an aspiring actor in it's past life
So happy he/she got the recognition they deserve in this life!
A cast so good even the dog killed it 👌
I searched for this video after hearing Kimmel mention his performance on the Oscars.
this dog actually came to my work once but i didnt get to see him. i was so star struck when i saw his paw prints outside.
This dog took play dead to the next level
What a smart doggo! He needs his own award, in the form of a treat. The way he emotes is wonderful.
I loved "Snoop" AKA Messi. 💘💖💕 I was scared for him when he had OD'ed. I was glad when he was OK. 🐶❤
Good job, Messi and his trainer!! ❤
right up there with Jed's performance in The Thing
snoop ate this up omg
milo best actor messi best suppoerting actor... i said what i said
Amazing acting of a dog and this is how a star is born y'all
my mom during the aspirin scene: wow even the dog is acting his ass off!
I had a border collie, great dog.. highly intelligent and easily trained. Wasn't an actor, though he did a little improv.
And he got uninvited from the Oscar’s literally how dare they
he was invited again by POPULAR DEMAND
I haven't seen a dog this good at his job since Jed from John Carpenter's The Thing.
This has got to be one of the most talented dogs I've ever seen.
So Messi is going to win the Oscar for best actor? The meme would come true 😂
bradley cooper could never
He is he greatest animal actor in a long long time. King.
amazing handlers, beautiful performance in this film snoop. the dog & handlers all need an oscar for this because it is truly a work of art. regardless of understanding the language, the acting between the son & especially snoop the dog is phenomenal. breathtaking !!
He should've been nominated.
Apparently the last scene was Messi's owm acting. Truly an acting phenomenon.
And yet he was snubbed by the academy.
I have never seen this movie but I already know this is the most talented dog in cinema
One of the all-time great canine performances in cinema history (up there with the alien dog from "The Thing")
He was a good boy, and he did a good job!
Sandra Hüller's canine co-stars in "Anatomy of a Fall" and "The Zone of Interest" were both awesome.
Like can somebody tell me? How the hell he did the choking, eyes , and the tongue… Like did they really poisoned him? HOOOWW HE ACTED BETTER THAN MOST OF THE ACTORS NOW?
He did two months of training for that scene but I'm still flabbergasted at how he was able to do it. What as seriously impressive performance from Messi.
border collies are super smart and clearly the owner of Messi trains him incredibly well
I think they used some VFX for the eyes as well
Jfc no, they didn't really POISON the dog. The playing dead is superb, but the eyes are CGI, the vomit is from a hidden tube.
That tracking shot from the dogs perspective is beautiful. To me it suggests the dog is the heart and truth of the movie
I must watch this for Messi
It's a great one, very thought-provoking
Messi's acting was so good that at a point I suspecting him of being the murderer
My collie is so similar, they are wonderful dogs!
this dog made me so happy while watching the movie
I JUST WATCHED THIS FILM. His acting is soo good 😅😅
The aspirin scene and the ending got me crying so hard i feel asleep after.... All because his acting shook me
That last scene... "I know you did it, but I still love you."
And where is his OSCAR? You telling me RDJ won but messi got snubbed ? Something so sinister about this……
Border collies are so brilliant ❤❤❤
He was SNUBBED for best actor!
Messi should have won Best Supporting Actor! idgaf about Oppenheimer and RDJ
Snoop is a Border Collie , ofcourse is a smart trooper ❤
mind blowing!
Please give Sandra Hüller her well deserved academy, anyway ❤
nah that bith is way too smart to pretend to be dead like that, thats a well trained animal like damn,
this dog be a better actor than some humans oml
so he walked around, and then layed down... wow powerful lol
Before this, the best dog acting for me was in the Thing, when he’s the monster in disguise and is stalking the halls.
That dog should jave been nominated over Gosling, Ruffalo or RDJ
every single actor in this movie was amazing even the fcking dog
give him an oscar
The last thing i expected to heard in this movie is 50 Cents's PIMP and i loved it.
