ABOUT VANITY FAIR

The masks are actually my favourite detail of this scene. Birdie having a mesh one ala Lana del rey is so clever and thought out tells so much about her character
Also the fact she says "ugh I can finally breathe again" when they have that vaccine thing and can take off the masks, even though she wasn't wearing a proper mask in the first place lol
Birdie was a great representation of the "dumb influencer" character: her biggest flaw, that we see multiple times throughout the movie, is that she just doesn't understand things. She's just dumb, but not in a way that make you roll your eyes at her idiocy, she is still entertaining.
I also like how, with her and Whiskey, the movie was able to give us two very different "bimbo" characters: Whiskey plays with her looks and use Duke to launch her own carreer the same way Duke uses her meanwhile Birdie knows that all she has for herslef is her looks, the girl probably couldn't cook herself an egg and would be dead in two weeks if it wasn't for Peggy.
Mine too!!
Why were they wearing masks?
@@paullasky6865 It takes place during 2020, aka the lockdown
6:10 I love this. The vanity fair editor basically saying “see! I can do that as well!”
So cute xD
Nice of u to draw attention to ze editor right there ;]
That’s funny XD
Hahahaha i love that
That's so true omg

Extremely Respected Director Rian Johnson yelling "Directing!" and triumphantly clicking the lid back on his marker while grinning like a wee kid has officially made my year
I wouldn’t call him respected after the last jedi
@@hankschrader7176 I would. You do realize that movie has a lot of fans too, right? I mean, I know a lot of people dislike it, it's a polarizing movie. But we do exist, and yes our opinions count even if it's not the same opinion as you.
@@krank23 But many people dislike and disrespect him because of the last Jedi, its a polarising movie but also a polarising director/ writer
@@hankschrader7176 Absolutely, yes. But does a director need to be universally loved/respected in order to be described as "respected"? At what percentage of respect/disrespect do you think a director can't be described that way?
To me, it's enough that a director has a large chunk of people who are respecting him - which Johnson has. He has our respect - i.e. he is respected. Not by everyone, but by a lot of people.
I see you had to type that, Kathleen Kennedy. You couldn't say it with your lips wrapped around Rian "Round Head"'s little Johnson.
The way Rian weaved the pandemic into the story was so smart. He clearly didn't want to re-traumatize people, as he used a light-enough touch for most to stomach, while also telling us so much about the characters just in how they reacted to it, their masks, how they wore it, whether they wore it, etc. Brilliant.
Hopefully when ppl of the future look back on this, they c it as this spec in the history that’s no longer terrorizing 🙈
It’s a nice touch for him to box this timeframe up in a movie / product of love tho.
@@waterywingz your kids are gonna live in a bubble
I can't believe people are actually on Twitter complaining about it.
@@DavidKen878 Well, that's people on Twitter for you
"Traumatize" and "Terrorize"? The heck are you people talking about!?
Doing the simple necessary things for a limited timespan to protect one another's well-being can hardly be called that.
All through this period, I was thinking that people whining and bitching about it better get rid of this snowflake attitude, because this wont have been the last pandemic we've experienced. The really disturbing thing about it all, was to see how little it takes to rattle so many people - there wont be many of them left if a more serious global crisis takes place. 😅
10:30 One thing I love about Kathryn Hahn is that when she is in the background of any scene, she will still find a way to deliver without going too overboard and taking over the main idea of the scene. We saw her perfect nosey, background acting in Wandavision and it seems like she brought it here too. Definitely one of my favorite actresses.
Fo. Realz. Love her in many of her works in the past 👏👏
yes, she’s such an efficient actor!
Her character in Parks and Rec might be one of my favorite characters, period.
She gave my favorite performance in this movie
Yes, this! She's always perfectly on character no matter if she's center stage or way down on the background. I love love her
I have a lot of respect for Rian loving Agatha Christie's stories and using them as inspiration for his own stories rather than try to adapt hers into movies. There's too many adaptations these days so it's cool seeing original, modern murder mystery stories and a fun new detective to lead them. I hope we get to learn more about blanc in the next movie
As the man said, "that stuff already exists". I do now need to go and watch the Poirot films with David Suchet
Well the last time he tried to do something with established IP people dragged him through the mud
Not only that but the modern adaptation of Christie are ... well, just bad.
@@liamjenkins244 *children
even tho his films are so much worse?
Oh no they missed the most important entrance - Janelle Monae!! That was an incredible moment and beautiful shot, wish they’d included it in this
She was fabulous! I think the reason they didn't is because exactly how much her entrance embodies her character, and what's going on. I think it would give away too much.
It’s really cool how 90% of Danial Craig’s face is covered, yet we still know the exact face he’s making through his head tilt and the camera pulling in on his face. Very cool
I'm hoping the 3rd one has a city vibe to it. Would love to see Rian pay tribute to something like rear window. He's done a rural mansion and an exotic getaway, it seems only fitting that the next one is set in a city.
@Randomuser2329 We've had a couple of train films though already in the past few years. Commuter, Orient Express, Bullet train. Nothing like rear window has been made for a long time.
Or a cabin in snowy mountains. A cruise ship - endless possibilities :)
Ooh, something Hitchcock-esque would be fun! I'd like to see the fun Rian could have with unnatural camera angles and forced perspective as a storytelling tool.
@@michaelwinters4231 The Voyeurs (2021) has a similar premise to Rear Window
Isolation is a key component of these movies
The only way I could see it working in a city is if the majority of it is set in a highrise penthouse or upper floor of a corporate skyscraper.
10:28 - I’m so impressed with how much Rian gives his actors’ autonomy in playing their characters. Really shows how collaborative filmmaking really can be. Kathryn Hahn adding this fun detail, and then Leslie Odom Jr.’s eye squint. Neither directed by Rian but adding so much to the movie.
You know a movie is good when the director is so excited about it. Like. There is heart and soul put into making this
I wish he was this excited about Star Wars.
@@jamesedleymusic it was always a dumb franchise anyways.
@@akhilnair1137 As if that sentiment is an excuse.
@@akhilnair1137 Dumb movie, not a dumb franchise
@@qr-code6334 nah, the whole franchise is just as corny and dumb.
i really enjoyed Rian Johnson's Knives Out break down scenes and I enjoyed this one too. He's such a delight to listen to. I never realize there's so much to pay attention to in directing a movie.
I'd love a director's commentary with Breakdowns like this
Plus those little details that the director finds while breaking the scene with us...
This is the thing that perhaps bums me out the most that it's a Netflix exclusive. I want a jam packed UHD Bluray with behind the scenes making of and director's commentary like @jamieschmidlin1841 mentioned. The original Knives Out Blu-Ray does exactly that, and it's a REALLY well made documentary and special features. I don't see Netflix investing that same amount of time, money, or passion into it, nor does Netflix ever put their movies out there for purchase.
When a move 'just seems boring' it's usually because they're not doing these things. It's the moment to moment directing decisions that can make a movie interesting or boring to watch, regardless of script and acting.
There are some interviews with Steve Yedlin, his cinematographer, that are worth a listen too. I'd never realised just how much deliberation can go into colour palettes and the like
I love all the little minutia that went into this scene; such as, the costumes, Blanc's eyeline, the blocking to show the relationships between characters and editing. Top notch directing
Top notch directing would have been telling Daniel Craig to ditch the stupid accent and stop phoning it in to top up his money after Bond.
*-little- minutiae
Minutia is singular and already means a detail that’s small.
@@cwg73160 Redundancy can be an effusive and emphatic flourish in casual expression.
@@AngeloBarovierSD When paired with not knowing the difference between the singular or plural version, I’m not giving anyone the benefit of the doubt.
@@cwg73160 I think that's a tad unfair when the word is itself somewhat esoteric. Irregardless...
_(Haha, just kidding!)_
Regardless, casual phrasing doesn't require literal intention. Emphatics often combine synonymous aspects in the sequential words or phrases in casual conversation.
"What a bright, sunny day!"
"That's some spicey hot sauce!"
"You f*&$ing f*&$er!"
"Such pious beliefs!"
These could be:
"What a sunny day!"
"That's some very hot sauce!"
"You f*&$er!"
"Such piety!"
I could listen to Rian Johnson talk about movies all day. Really fun film, too.
NPC behaviour
Agree!! Always love his movie breakdowns and commentary
Maybe but never about star wars
@@safi6749 He could explain why he helped to destroy SW. But who cares…
Same.
"The sad trumpet noise of costumes." ...that is exactly how I feel about the color beige. Thank you, Mr. Johnson for expressing my innermost thoughts.
I guarantee you Birdie's mask got the whole theater roaring. It was glorious, everybody knows this person
I never thought Glass Onion would get close in terms of quality to Knives Out, but man this movie is just as good or even better. Rian Johnson delivering once more!
I haven't seen _Glass Onion_ yet but thought _Knives Out_ was wonderful.. I already think I'm going to like GO more because KO felt claustrophobic, always in the mansion (and that's great for a murder mystery but having lived my life out of doors, dining alfresco Etc) I have a feeling this, filmed in Greece, might blow KO away visually.
I love both movies, Glass Onion is just as good as the first one imo
Its fun but not better
@@IntriguedLioness Its still mostly in the same location, a mansion on an island. It is very beautiful and but its still a one environment movie, sorry
I think Knives Out is generally better because there are less plot holes, but I like the thesis of and themes explored in Glass Onion more.
I love how he really goes in detail about the directing aspect of things and basic rules of composition.
He’s very well spoken & descriptive
Rules of composition?😂 He hates rules like a real edgelord
i really don't even know what exactly what you’re trying to say. He’s talking about fundamental composition ideas
I'd love to see him and Yedlin interviewed together and going in-depth on this stuff
I feel like I watched a masterclass on filmmaking for free
you pretty much did and man I enjoyed every second of it
There's a LOT better guys to watch than this dude
Lol, it's pathetically moronic.
@@lubskipunch8706 But he is one of the best for sure.
@@bjakeijzer ur crazy if you think that
Directors rarely use Notes on a Scene to break down the framing of a shot or the blocking of their characters. I love the way Rian does these videos!
The best part of this scene was Ethan Hawke’s cameo. Caught me by surprise and I loved it bcs I can’t think of a single reason why he was there at all
I like Joseph Gordon Levitt's cameo
I was surprised by Hugh Grant cameo
@@BlackEagle352shoot! I totally missed him. Do you remember when he showed up?
@@ingridmatos9940 he was the hourly bong
I had a notepad to write down names of the cameos because I kept stopping to check if they were in the film, at which point I was then spoilt for others. Yo-Yo Ma was the one who first surprised me. But Stephen Sondheim and Angela Lansbury on screen together was probably the best cameos I spotted.
I’d be happy to see a ten hour version of this where we make him break down the entire movie scene by scene
A full director's commentary edition of the movie would be really fun!
I would pay to see that!
he actually did a podcast version where you play glass onion and he does a voice over explaining each scene
i liked the parallel to the first movie w blanc solving the murder, but leaving the finale towards the "real" protagonist, the kind normal person who gets sucked into everything against their will (martha as a nurse, helena as a teacher)
Rian Johnson is the only director I’ve seen with so much attention to detail on Notes on a Scene. The way he frames his scenes has so much intention, it’s incredible!
A pity he didn't put as much thought and heart into TLJ and just wanted, in his own words, "to come in and kick all the anthills over".
Wonder why it has the 3rd highest critic score out of all of the star wars movies
Watch Ryan Coogler's breakdown of Black Panther. The amount of things he accounted for is pretty impressive.
@@TianoAnnunziata TLJ is fourth, and also nearly never use critic scores, most of them are just bribed or rigged anyway.
@@tulinfirenze1990And I appreciate him for that. TROS just proved the direction Rian heading towards was refreshing. A nobody can bring new hope, no dynasty / legacy elitism crap. Instead we got “somehow Palpatine has returned.” 🙄
That was an absolute blast to watch. Such a well-crafted and wonderfully goofy film, that still somehow manages to be relevant. You can tell that this was made with passion.
A type The Last of Sheila
it feels modern without feeling like it’s pandering to memes and pop culture, which is hard to do
My favorite line..."Halle Berry" with the Jeremy Renner Hot Sauce lol 😂
@@bruceturnbull4219 extremely. dialogue was okay, ending a tiny bit mid
@@bruceturnbull4219 isn’t that his deal?
As a film student, it’s honestly so fun to hear Rian Johnson talk about his movies. Honestly it’s very comforting
Watch the whale and triangle of sadness, film student
Goodluck making movies for free channels🤡
And Glass Onion is exactly how not to make a movie. Take note film student
One thing you didn't mention about Duke's entrance, he drove on the right side of the dock forcing the Tuktuk(?) to dodge him. For me, it established his personality even more than the twitch stream scene at the beginning of the movie.
You're right that Duke barrelling towards the tuktuk shows how inconsiderate and arrogant he is, but they were both driving in the middle of the dock. They drive on the right in Greece (and all of mainland Europe), just like they do in the US, so Duke driving on the right wouldn't have made the tuktuk dodge unless the tuktuk was driving on the wrong side of the dock.
I have such HUGE respect for when directors goes "this scene I did was awesome, but its to long/doesnt really fit so I cut it".
He did a video similar to this for Knives Out where he revealed that movie villains never have an iPhone. Having given that away, I noticed he cleverly made sure the villain in this movie didn't have a phone so we couldn't use that trick
One of the few titles that hope keeps going. We need a third ‘Knives Out Mystery’.
it was renewed at the same time as the second one
I literally want an entre Knives Out franchise. THIS is where Rian makes good movies.
Netflix signed them to make two Knives Out movies. This is the first.
@@Varekai0723 this is the second one
@@lucypreece7581 This is the first Netflix Knives Out. They are contracted to make another.
@@Varekai0723 Awesome! Thank you for informing.
@White Fox it's still being made...
With the Hamilton reference in the first film, Leslie Odom Jr exists both as Lionel and as himself in the Knives Out universe.
I'll watch new Knives Out movies (provided that Johnson's heart is in it) until the end of time. The two movies have this fantastic detective at the centre, with a cast of great actors and are written and directed V E R Y well.
I'll take more of that
This is great. A small thing I enjoyed that he didn't mention was the misdirect of hearing "a gun shot!" to seeing/hearing the little truck for a moment of "Oh, it was a backfire" to "Oh it really was a gun." is a nice moment.
i think the use of masks was so well done like he’s saying it really gives us a look into their characters and specifically their type of fame, Birdie’s is completely performative. it’s not doing really anything but she can argue ‘look i tried i care’ but with duke he literally doesn’t have one on at all bc his type of fame is built on saying controversial things and riling up the masses so he doesn’t have to bother pretending to care.
Please, can I have him break down the ENTIRE movie this way??? IDGAF if it’s 5 hrs long. I could listen to this man talk about his craft forever ❤️❤️❤️
one more of these and we can confirm that these movies are all time greats
agreed
One more and it’ll be the best mystery trilogy of all time. It’s already great times. Classics imo because he chose to set these during a specific time period. The masks and the mysterious wonder drug is classics that’ll bring memories back everytime
That's a stretch....
They're good movies but all time great murder mysteries? Not even in the top 20
Id love to see a train setting for the next one. We've gotten mansion and vacation murder, would love a classic train murder mystery
This is why I love Rian Johnson. He's so clearly passionate about film and what he does, and he has the skills to match it. Every one of his films is just incredible to watch because of his insane attention to detail
I love watching these Notes on a Scene because you learn that, while happy accidents happen, everything in film is intentional; frames and shots and music and props are meant to give you a little more information than what is directly said with dialogue. It's fascinating.
Rian Johnson has inspired me so much as an artist to really focus and care about craft every since I saw last Jedi as a teenager and now I apply what he teaches me as an architecture student. With composition and colors to tell a story. Thank you Rian Johnson
Amazing!
You were definitely bullied as a teenager
you should quit, one rian johnson is enough.
You already got some haters. You’re on the right path.
@@CameraManBlaise TLJ is not great for a star wars movie, but you can't deny it's visually great and directed well
I saw what you guys did with the leadings lines pointing at Rian, made me laugh
The 'introducing the characters by their masks' is simple but very effective
Katryn Hahn is probably one of the most underrated actress in Hollywood. She's always brilliant in every movie.
Absolutely amazing to hear about the specific movements and costume choices form the director! It was so engaging to see how much he cares for this film and his obvious passion for every piece of the production that went into it!
One of the things I personally really loved about both Knives Out and Glass Onion was the difference in the lighting. In Knives Out, the coloring was more muted and brown, and felt heavier and denser overall, almost claustrophobic - which makes sense as most of the movie takes place inside the house. While in Glass Onion, the colors were so much brighter and lighter, with the use of more blue and gold shades in the color grading, it felt so much more open and almost sunsoaked - which, again, made sense as most of the movie takes place outside (or in a room with a lot of natural light) in Greece on a beach
Love the satiric take on how Miles represents our modern day “genius” billionaires.
This movie really came out in the perfect moment, didn't it?
I wondered if him (the rich techbro that steals and lives off the back of actually smart people) and Duke (the misogynistic bald douchebag) are supposed to be parallels to anyone…
At the start when they depicted him as genius billionaire with tons of businesses he runs, I was thinking it was just a cheap musk knockoff; but then he was revealed to be an idiot who stole others’ ideas, and I thought wow, it really is alt-universe musk 💀
Elon Musk eat your heart out
I loved this. I watched the movie last night and Rian's beautifully clear and un-pompous revelations here just made it so much better for me. I love his understated glee at what has been created.
I appreciate Rian's down to earth approach to everything. He doesn't downplay the effort that goes into a movie but he's still a regular movie nerd who got excited when he recognized elements in Daniel Craig's Benoit outfit 😌
Yeah this movie was a blast!! Just enough murder mystery to have some serious fun - and just enough sociopolitical commentary to leave you thinking!!
The first Knives Out holds a really special place in my heart - but I LOVE the ensemble cast of Glass Onion (each individually and as a group) - and I'm excited for more Benoit and Friends 😂☺
The ending is a total train wreck. A potentially clever twist sacrificed for brute force social commentary, classic Ryan. Instead we default to blunt violence. If you can't get justice otherwise, just burn the thing down. What a genius move and subversion of expectations to replace smartness with aggression and then gaslight the villain into believing it was a direct consequence of his actions. Cracking!
Yeah.. the sociopolitocal commentary was "just enough", "very subtle"
@@MAKESZENZE I was kinda drunk writing this comment 😅 I was hoping it wouldn’t get a lot of likes loool - “just enough” is the wrong wording - it was a LOT 😅
It actually wasn’t too much social commentary for me - I still had fun with the rest of the movie and then it got piled on at the end. But I also agree with the social commentary and think it’s important! So I say - pile away!
But hey! You’re entitled to your opinion! Thanks for your comment ☺️
@@nobe9996 lol that’s how it goes. If injustice is unnoticed, burn it all down. And start over.
What a fantastic mystery film. The first movie was so clever and I didn't know if it could be matched, but this one matches it completely.
And its the perfect type of mystery-- every bit of evidence was there for us to see prior to the reveal, they didn't bs evidence out of nowhere, it all added up perfectly.
I can't wait to see more Benoit Blanc
I'm looking forward to this because _Knives Out_ was limited in it's sets but visually, filming in Greece, this will go all out!
I hope you enjoy it! I particularly enjoyed the sets in Knives Out as it was filmed in Massachusetts in some places I'm familiar with.
It's really good
love island sets reused
yessss. very pretty movie
@WaffleEBay12 same but with Glass Onion for me bc I'm Greek
6:54 Rian Johnson: **makes a square around Jessica Henwick's foot**
Quentin Tarantino: **enters the chat**
the fact that he kind of pulled off the "and there were none" was very impressive to me.
I could listen to Rian Johnson break down every single scene in this movie, wow!
He’s so right! Kathryn Hahn is her own movie in the background lol. I love her and the movie.
I greatly appreciated the portrayal of masking culture with individuals in the pandemic and their distinct personalities. Each individual's attitude toward masking matches their personality perfectly. None of it felt stereotyped or out of place. It was just pure honesty.
I watched this movie with my parents and they hated it because they thought it wasn't as good as the first one, they thought the reveals were a let-down and they felt it had plot holes. I didn't care because I was having such a great time. This is such an amazing sequel and it makes so much sense to me after seeing this video WHY it feels that way. Rian Johnson (for better or worse) is clearly a director that is always asking "how can we do this differently?" I see it so much in Glass Onion based on how the mysteries are presented differently, how the setting looks and feels and even what genres he plays with. There are lots of things in this movie that don't make sense in original knives out and I think that is freaking amazing and just... Well done, Rian Johnson, this is one of the best sequels ever made.
I think it's so short-sighted to judge this movie based on the first Knives Out. He's on record saying he wanted to do something completely different with this one, & he's setting up a murder mystery franchise where each installment can stand on its own, just like the Agatha Christie books.
Just watched the movie yesterday and it was a really fun watch. So many bits and pieces to catch before the reveal. It keeps the audience engaged to not want to miss anything (any small gesture, conversation, etc) but at the same time as Rian says, they try to be economical with the amount of information they're trying to feed to the audience so that the clues aren't as obvious but there are nuggets in most things that they do. Really good movie!
Met Rian very briefly at Alamo Drafthouse in LA right after a screening of the first Knives Out. He is an incredibly nice guy and I’m glad to see his success. Much deserved!
I absolutely adore the visual storytelling with everybody's masks. You just immediately know so much about who they are as people
This detailed description shows how much thought and how much planning is required for a movie. A whole new level of appreciation unlocked for the film makers 👏👏
One of the best movies i've seen this year
It was fine
I had goosebumps when Blanc said "It's solvin time!"
@@awwen_lopez can the morbius memes stop please
I thought it was great until the Helen Blanc flashback. The ending was disappointing. Why couldn’t Miles just play off the fire as a garden variety fire? And I didn’t buy that the group had motivation to turn on Miles. It felt like a plot contrivance.
@@mikecantreed They didn't have any motivation to protect him any more. He was so thoroughly ruined they couldn't take advantage of his money or influence any longer. Just more proof how shallow and opportunistic these characters are.
We watched this yesterday & loved it! While we love 'Knives Out' just a smidge more, this was a spectacular sequel with just as good of a murder mystery. We loved that Rian kept the same set up & backtracked halfway thru. Plus, the cast is stellar, just like 'Knives Out' 😁
One thing I love about Rian is that he clearly loves making movies and appreciates cinema. What a cool dude.
Not related to this scene breakdown but imagine my shock when I learned Joseph Gordon Levitt was part of the cast… as the voice of the hourly gong.
Literally got chills when Rian said that the inspiration was Agatha Christie. He probably won't get to see this comment, but I just want to say thank you, and I love these movies and I hope you make a million more.
I love how he transitions so fluidly and organically between these beautiful shots that are so perfectly framed.
Just finished Glass Onion. I’ll be honest, I saw it, knew it exactly what it was, got excited because I loved Knives out. When watching the first few scenes thinking, “it’s a sequel to a masterpiece, it’s not gonna be as good, but at least I’ll get to see Benny again.” I can say with confidence that I was dead wrong. I’m looking forward to Rian Johnson’s next masterpiece.
Cool movie, could think of a thousand other words to describe it before masterpiece tho lol
I love Rian’s passion for filmmaking. It’s very inspiring
When he said "this scene used to be longer" I got excited. I REALLY hope there is a directors cut.
"Matches nothing else in the scene lightning wise, but it's gorgeous so who cares?"
Some times things are beautiful and unintended. The makings of great cinema.
I could listen to him talk about directing all day. You can tell he really loves what he does.
The use of the masks to characterize is the best way to use the pandemic in a movie.
Birdie’s absolutely useless mask is so perfect.
He legit is amazing at creating fantastic films - very quickly becoming one of my favourite directors
Ruben Ostlund… darron arronofsky cough cough
Rian is a real gentleman here. Directed and wrote a certified fresh whodunnit. Makes sure to give credit to the costume department first chance he gets
Imma take Jenny Eagan's name as a good sign for a movie now.
That feeling when you finish knives out 1 and 2 and then you don’t have any more movies to watch so you look on CZcams for more content.
Are you me?
Me too
me 3
I love how much you can tell he just loves what he does
I want this for the entire movie. Please a whole visual commentary. I’d watch all 20 hours of it!
Love how it takes a 20 minutes video to masterfully explain in depth such a relatively short scene.
i know it's unrealistic but i would love a long video of him breaking down this entire movie
i could watch his breakdown of this entire movie.
I love his movie break downs. I wish he did more of them
you can tell he's such a director with his knowledge but the difference is that he's an actor's director.
He trusts and appreciates his cast.
I love Rian’s thoughts on Agatha Christie and her books! I’m such an Agatha fan, and so many people who haven’t read her books presume that they’re going to be dull and repetitive. But, as Rian says, she totally played around with different genres and subverted expectations. I’d love Benoit Blanc to solve as many mysteries as Poirot. I want Daniel Craig to still be starring in these movies when he’s in his 80s!
i am absolutely so in love with this movie i’m pretty sure watching it changed my life projectors i need more everyone did amazing the cast the crew but especially rian johnson
Love this breakdown and scene. Love the way this sets the stage for the rest of the film. Enjoy it and can't wait for Knives Out 3.
I'd seriously watch a 10 hour version of this going over the entire movie
I feel like Rian is such a great teacher and obviously an amazing director!
What’s crazy is that I enjoyed these knives out films MORE than the James Bond movies but Tom Cruises is still out there riding his life on every film. Ensemble Tom! Ensemble!
This is so fascinating. I have never taken anything as simple as an Intro to Film and Video class, so hearing all of this is very new to me. The level of detail and thought that goes into these scenes is mindblowing.
Petition to have Rian breakdown the ENTIRE movie! He is great.
I could watch a 10 hour breakdown of the entire movie just like this
Wow. I thought of myself as a movie buff. Ends up I don't know crap. The amount of thought and execution is insane, and fascinating.
Thank you! I love to listen to directors talk about the nuances and details of scenes. These glimpses are a master class in the art of film making.
Been looking forward to this video! I loved the one he did for the first movie. Rian Johnson is clearly a very talented director. It’s a lot of fun hearing him explain the technical aspects of this scene. Loved this movie and I already can’t wait to see what he does with the third one!
Loved the film. Such a fun caper. I appreciate the honest commentary here! Shows how much effort goes into each scene.
I would love a four hour long break down of the film like this by Rian. For both this and Knives Out.
This guy is both an incredibly good writer and director. He writes all those amazing characters and executes his vision perfectly through directing!
Leslie is just killing it in all of these murder mysteries
It must be nice to have Rian Johnson on his side!
Aw man, he cut it too soon, cause I loved Janelle's character's introduction. She looked absolutely gorgeous.
This man got something with this series 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
