A24 = original stories. Not remakes, sequels or recycled stories. They are bold. Even on their worst day I much rather watch one of their authentic new stories fail than to rehear/watch an altered recycled original. They are a fresh breath of air to cinema.
Sorry but Macbeth isn’t exactly original…nor the green knight
@@theunsmartasian1087gottem
gaaaaay
Truth.
@@theunsmartasian1087 Those are 2 films out of dozens and counting and both are based on stories literally hundreds of years old. Your username is very accurate keep up the good work.
This is a perfect example of how you do a trailer. You’re not getting a synopsis or plot of the the entire movie, but it perfectly gives you a setting and a vibe. Such a good trailer!
A24 always makes the best trailers it seems.
Umm we saw everything.
Well- clearly he’s a hypochondriac who is afraid of his mother ? That’s all I can take from the trailer
how can we be sure this video is the trailer, when it didnt start with a mini version of the trailer?
@@Njbear7453 and I’m sure you are right. Now let’s hope it’s good.
Watched this at the movies last night. Epic. Hectic.
My closest friend had life long mental health issues, and had the same underlying soft loving nature as Beau in this movie.
I asked him once what it felt like to endure a psychotic episode, and he said that you absolutely can not distinguish the difference between a thought and something happening in real life.
A couple of years ago, we went surfing together, I dropped him home afterwards and made plans to surf again the next day. But he woke up, took his board to the beach and walked up to the edge of a 100ft cliff and jumped off, beautiful sunny morning at 9am.
The weight of what he carried around (and hid beautifully from most of the world) in the background of his mind was a war that was eventually to much to bare.
There was so many moments in this film that reminded me of moments in time that I’d seen him travel through.
Amazing movie that blurred the lines between the reality he encompassed and the torture of his anxieties.
"My closest friend has life long mental health issues" or ... had?
@@extravalewell, he did use "had" later in the text. So, you don't need to ask that
And he said his friend jumped off of a cliff dude don't be a dick trying to correct grammar anybody that has any sense at all would know exactly what he was saying he was talking about him in the past tense like he's no longer around . Dam man some people are really questionable these days
My heart is with you. The same "background of her mind was a war war that was eventually to much to bare." Thanks for sharing your heart. You put in words that I could not explain.
Pray for peace. Grief is.... I'm attending group. Please reach out.
Sending you're a hug🤗
@@aliciar5538 He died.
It really warms my heart to see A24 carve out their little niche and find so much success. This is what I loved about movies. It doesn't have to be one or the other. I want to watch big, dumb superhero popcorn flicks AND be blown away by stuff like this.
Love this take! Same!
Perfectly said. I want to have fun watching the big blockbusters like Top Gun or The Avengers, and still be moved or provoked by watching something like this, Hereditary, or EEAAO
@@vincenthalfprice9930 should at least say the whole name of the film or else it sounds like you're having a heart attack, EEAAO!!
@@alexwells6876 we ain't typing all that 💀
@@vincenthalfprice9930 More like Top Gun & Banshees of Inisherin. EEAAO was not thought provoking. I haven’t spent one second thinking about that movie since it ended.
I absolutely love when a movie trailer grabs my attention but doesn't tell me a single thing about the plot of the movie. 10/10
this comment right here. been hating trailers nowadays usually, they reveal literally everything lol
Amen
@@calebbatchman8598 exactly. I don’t even usually have to watch the movies now, just watch the trailer and know what happens 💀
I could just hug you for twenty minutes for saying something as beautiful as that. (((((((((((((((((((((Hugs!))))))))))))))))))))
Why?
Ari Aster and Joaquin Phoenix sounded like a match made in heaven when Beau Is Afraid was first announced, now this looks like it will be one of the most bizarre, introspective, and comedically terrifying films in recent years and I couldn't be happier to welcome it with open arms.
It's giving me EEAAO vibes. Maybe it's the surrealism and absurd imagery.
Don't you find it weird to use such words to describe a film that isn't even out yet, based purely on it's trailer? Seems like I'm reading a review of a film that's already out, written by someone who's chronically on Letterboxd.
@@johndoe5346Doesn't look anything like that movie.
@@dexterpapa2 why are you so mad lol
@@tenebrae23He said “vibes.” Read.
There are a lot of controversial opinions about this movie. It’s more metaphorical, it represents how to live with anxiety, basically a nightmare of a person with severe anxiety in absurd, black comedic portrayal.
It’s also about relationships in your life and their importance ( parents, partners etc) and how parents can control you even as an adult, how they planted deep fears into us only to be hindered from reaching our full potential and joy. What it’s like not finding your place in society and feeling like an outcast, not fitting anywhere, but even if you have a chance to live a happy life and find your people, your inner fears, your traumas will come get you and draw you back to the source of every bad thing in your life, mind until you can’t escape and there’s no where to go.
It’s about traumas, fears, anxiety and how they can decrease someone’s quality of life, determine their present and future and how you can be the prisoner of your own mind due to them.
beautiful put
wait you’re serious huh????
It's psychosis! Paranoia.
It's about having a crazy mother and how having to take drugs to deal with the violent world.
One of the best and eloquent ways of summarizing the theme of the movies in ways I couldn't. Well done!
It's the kind of movie that makes you think for days afterwards. Absolutely brilliant movie
I really want to see this and waiting for it to come to streaming. I just love Joaquin Phoenix!
For months afterwards actually
There is NOTHING I enjoy more on this planet than creative and weird movies. This is beautiful.
i suggest watching rene laloux's fantastic planet!
Me too, buddy. Me too...
You're right x3, i liked Marveolous man in Netflix
THAN*
Same here. And while there are a lot of foreign films that are a lot weirder than this looks to be, I am so happy that A24 is encouraging American filmmakers to be as weird as they want and pushing artfull, unique filmmaking into the mainstream
I love how these trailers barely tell anything about what happens, so nothing is spoiled, but also show everything at once about the movie
This tells quite a bit actually. I think anyone who's seen The Truman Show already knows a decent amount of the plot with this. With that said, clearly there is more too it, but the similarities were all given away in this 'trailer'. Given the length of the trailer it would appear the "Truman Show" style surprise for the main character takes up a decent portion of the run time. Who knows. Could be wrong but this trailer could be half as long as still be good.
@@GladiatorSlows I was thinking Truman show, some kind of coma dream, or mental health crisis
they should have probably put a few key scenes in the last 2 movies trailers, cuz those movies were highly disturbing
@@GladiatorSlows you mean earth
And still you have no idea whatis it about 🤣
I saw Beau is afraid yesterday, honestly I don't regret the 3 hours I spent watching this, one thing is certain whether like it or not, you will never forget this movie.
Watched it last night and im already forgetting it, too pretentious
Amazing film!! A must see, unless your favourite all time film is some Avengers sequel
It's somewhat fascinating how your comment (Melissa) provides an intelligently balanced take... only to be followed by two radical takes from both sides of the coin. Honestly, Melissa, I wish more people were like you and could express their opinion truthfully without blatantly insulting the opposite thing.
@@CuckLordSinbad -))))
It's a strange movie I'm watching it now
Thank you A24 for continuing to let Artists like this shine. You guys gave me a passion for movies and going to the theater again
tbh , searchlight pictures , focus features , Neon are also great studios for letting their artist , a great freedom
@@davidthirugnanakumar7888 ooooh neon is a good one
I don't think they have a problem giving freedom. It's all about the money and profit these kinds of movies don't make since people are so conditioned to mainstream recycled ideas and sequels. But kudos to A24 ,they got Ari Aster's back and he continues to deliver new experiences for us.
Omg me too! I never thought of it that way but it’s true, A24 made me EXCITED for movies again, they just scratch that part of my brain
I love when a good director gets popular enough that they're allowed to be weird.
midsommar and hereditary were already weird, in a good way.
A24 is a low budget studio. They pick up scripts and directors that typically won’t get funded by major production companies(ie. Avant garde movie ideas) in an attempt to hopefully turn a massive profit on a movie that deviates from the mainstream(marvel, Disney bs). It’s a [potentially] higher risk for a higher reward scenario. It has nothing to do with ari aster getting popular, but A24 giving aspiring directors a chance from the beginning. Think blumhouse(another low budget production company) and their massive success and profits on the first paranormal activity. Most big budget companies wouldn’t have funded a venture such as PA, but look at the reward, almost 200 million pure profit.
when was aster not weird?
@@jerkchickenblog Depends on what you mean by weird. Hereditary and Midsommar were great, but they were sold as horror films and were exactly that. I've got no idea what this is going to be. Obviously still going to see it though.
Aster is definitely next level and one of the finest new gen directors. Robert Eggers is another. Born in the 80's!
Finally an Aster movie where his twisted sense of humor is a top priority. Love it
Humor?
@@THEINVISIBLEWARRIORR yes humor
@@tomasgomez1906 There’s no Humor, just horror
There's definitely been twisted humor in all of them so far haha; this one is just loaded with it!
@@THEINVISIBLEWARRIORR yes? Ari Aster called this a comedy too
I came into the movie theater blind. I did not know what to expect with Ari Aster's new movie, but it's that level of uncertainty that drew me in even more. I left the theater in awe and somewhat gut-punched. I had to see this movie again! Already can't wait to get it to own on 4K blu ray!!!
Wait... you said you came into the theater blind. So, I have some questions...
Later, you said you can't wait to see this movie again, and that you left the theater gut-punched. First of all, that's miraculous! This movie actually helped you to see again! We've got to get the word out.
But as far as someone assaulting you in the theater...
This is outrageous! Who would punch a blind person in a theater!?? Is that something blind people have to deal with regularly?? That's horrible!
I mean here you are, (listening very intently to the movie), and probably running back and forth very quickly at the bottom of the screen reading the braille at the bottom, and someone comes along and sucker punches you? Is it because you also got popcorn and were maybe smearing butter across the screen? If so... how did you carry the bucket of popcorn with one hand and read braille with the other, and still have time to reach into the bucket to get some more popcorn? You must have missed a lot of the movie.
Actually...If the movie had audio, why did you need to read the braille at the bottom? Is that because you were afraid you might miss something the actors said? Oh wait... I get it now.
You must have bumped into another person who was blind as well when you were both going back and forth, and THEY gut punched you.
I dunno... maybe I'm just blind, but I don't see it.
@@deefuze1151Your humour, it's weird just like this movie.
Ari is trying to hard to be wacky and quirky and has made a incoherent surreal mess. Wes anderson wannabe. I have seen this type of movie a lot in the last ten years sir so, and i can’t believe Ari has stooped to making an inferior copy of movies that came before in this style. What a mess of a film. infuriating watch. Never again. He should stick to his brand of horror. he’s awful at this
ohhh man you are creative lmao@@deefuze1151
@@paulwoodford1984just finished… I’m not sure if I’m mad or not lol I truly think Hereditary is masterful horror but this just seemed overindulgent without much payoff
Ari Aster revolutionized the horror genre. His movies are exactly what i’m looking for in a horror movie.
I doubt he gives af about genres
surreal movies like this one literally track back to the 70s/80s and 90s, he's not unique, just bringing it to mainstream culture lol
@@marianne22222 Let's see your letterbox then 🙂
Is this horror? Hereditary definitely was. Midsommar was blurring the line. This one, I don't think so.
@Jason Delvaux This movie puts the psychological in psychological horror. Like I genuinely think it's the poster child of what that genre is about (which is often mislabeled or misunderstood)
You know a movie will be good when the preview does not spoil and leaves you wanting to discover what Beau is afraid of. Bravo
Even more strange is that the short Ari made in 2011 Beau shares some elements but is clearly a different kind of plot entirely
@@brimstonesulfur5013 It's a different kind of plot but based on the same character, he wrote a full-length screenplay centered around him called Beau Is Afraid in 2014 and this is the adaptation of that. Screenplay's been floating around online for a while, it looks like they changed a LOT but I still recognize some key scenes. Based on this trailer, he's definitely taken some of it in a very different direction though, so I have no idea what to expect. Looks more uplifting than the script, but that may just be trailer editing.
Or maybe it’s 3 hours long
@@brimstonesulfur5013 where can i watch the 2011 short?
I can’t wait for the part where he says “I’m beau is afraid.”
A24 is easily in the top 3 production companies right now. Even their work that isn't as popularly recognized is all of a really high standard and most have their own cult followings. I always get a feeling like I'm in a fever dream watching A24 movies and it's rare that production companies can achieve that effect where you are enveloped in the story time after time 🙏
The whale really got me on board
What’s the other 2?
@@SethMathis1st it doesn't matter because no studio or production company is great right now.
@@jeffreyhack7887 yes it is.. lol
"fever dream;" aptly described
I understand why people dislike this film, but it is one of my new favorite films, which I almost never say about a film I've only just seen. It officially blew my mind.
This movie is a great example of “art disturbs the comfortable and comforts the disturbed”. If you’re a person with anxiety and/or enjoy dark depressing humor, you’ll probably enjoy this fever dream of a journey.
Wrong
@@jcimsn8464wrong i suffer anxiety and i liked the movie
I was howling laughing through most of this film. My wife was sat with mouth agape. Every now and then I looked over to check in, chuckle, and give her a reassuring pat on the leg because I had nothing to say. If Joaquin doesn't get the Oscar for this, then the Oscars are pointless.
@@elbonnieto8929you are saying exactly what they said. 😂 Don’t understand why you are disagreeing. I on the other hand disliked the movie.
@@peonyflowers23 you used the laughing emoji so your opinion is inmediately invalid
This could be a new example of “psychological horror “ we need more filmmakers like Ari , we need people that push the limits of a preexisting art to something new ❤
I’ve heard Aster call it a “nightmare comedy.” I think that’s the direction comedy movies need to go to get popular again.
@@samfilmkid I would say the same for horror movies 😂😂both genres need a refresh 😂
Eh it's very Kaufman with a humorous twist and I love that
@@narrance it looks like something that don’t pretend to scare the audience with stupid jumpscares or gore stuff, it’s a movie about Fear but not a “scary movie “ and the comic side balance it … in my opinion it looks like a polished,elegant version of Raimi’s Evil dead in terms of contrasting feelings 🤔
@@onemanhorrorband7732 oh don’t worry, there is plenty of gore, supernatural scares, cults, monsters, etc. in this movie
God bless Ari Aster!
Amen!
Thank you, Jesus.
Only endorsement I need. Will no longer doubt this 4 hour horror comedy will work
Your dad gave this director the most breathtaking of gifts! 😇

Just got done watching this movie and gotta say that I left the theater completely awe struck and full of joy, questions and theories. Ari Aster’s filmography is the reason I love going to the local movie theater. Can’t wait to see what’s next for this fantastic director, 10/10 from me like his last 2 films
My favorite part was probably the extended, half-animated 2nd person monologue: “You will walk many miles…”
it was a huge step down in quality from his first two films. This was a incompetent, incoherent mess. he’s become a wes anderson wannabe. seen better surreal movies than this. This was terrible
Full of joy? Shit you must've been watching a different movie then.
it was a terrible movie@@delsinrowe2014
I saw film screening Beau is afraid in IMAX in Manhattan Ari Aster was interviewed by Martin Scorsese after the screening. I will let you know that if you’re battling codependency, this is a great movie for you to see. The main character of Beau battles a lifetime of codependency brought on by his mother, not allowing him to have autonomy in his formative years. He goes on to question all his decisions and abdicate his decision, making to others rendering him as someone who is lost in chaos, castrated by his mothers inability to allow him to choose. he ends up becoming a hypochondriac, unable to feel safe in making choices for himself. Even after his mothers, death beau still continues to drown in his own guilt brought on by his mothers constant reminders that he did not love her enough the way she needed to be loved. This movie drives the point home that for codependent person to learn to be independent, They must take the control of their decisions, cut the chains that bind them to their past and choose life decisions for themselves or die along with their codependent counterpart
Fantastic analysis! I agree. The ending really hit home for me. No one can help you out of this but you.
the movie wasn't so simple. Beau was a victim of his smothering and jealous mother but he was also so unresponsive. He had to learn to act out what he wants or at least explain himself better. He was guilty of what he was judged for even though the judgement ignored the defense of his position... I guess saying that in the end it doesn't matter if others 'made' you the way you are. You have to seek the solution yourself.
His psychiatrist didn't help. Nobody helped... not even Beau.
Phenomenal explanation
I really really want to sound serious with this question but the context of the scene completely nullifies all seriousness, could you please explain your view on the giant p*nis that was supposedly Beau’s dad??
I could put everything together on my own and I truly enjoyed this movie, it became one of my favorites so far! But Im trying to come up with what could that mean…
Ok but spoiler alertt lol
Thanks Ari Aster for keeping the art of cinema alive and thanks Joaquin Phoenix for sculpting these characters with your unique talent. All the waiting has been worth it, this movie looks mind blowing.
I agree thank you A24! The creativity magic of cinema seems like it's fading by the minute...but there are still a few "keepers of the msgic" left....
Bro but did you see Black Adam?
Hollywood will call this movie racist because “wHiTe pEoPlE” baf
@@ll4680 🙄🤦♂️ Oh stop!
@@ll4680 Predicting YOUR worst fears before they materialize? How sad. You really do need to see this one, then.
Joaquin Phoenix is one of those rare actors who whenever I see that he's involved in a project I have to watch it. Such a tremendously gifted actor.
Aces + Facts,. 👏👏💯👏
Thus Far my Favourite Phoenix Films are the Master, Two Lovers, and You Were Never Really Here..
...with Inherent Vice taking Honorable Mention..
Ever since I first saw him in Gladiator back in the day I knew the dude had a big future ahead of him. The guy really goes above an beyond for his role an does not feel like he's the 'same' person in every film that he's in.
I think on top of being a fantastic actor, he also just has REALLY good taste in film. He works on so many movies and the vast majority of them are also just fantastic artworks by themselves.
his brother would be so proud 💗

Just watched this movie. And oh my fucking god. There are no words. That was one of the craziest fever-dream odyssey style movies I’ve ever seen. Ari Aster absolutely broke out of the style of Hereditary and midsommar. This was its own monster. It had parts that were extremely anxiety provoking, or were hilarious, boring or extremely intriguing. It was almost painful to watch, but afterwards i can’t stop thinking about it (in a good way). I am very impressed.
Read the 1990s comic Eightball. Aster said it was an influence. The 8-ball story in particular would be Like A Velvet Glove Cast In Iron.
Can’t stop thinking about it either. Bc the themes and allegories don’t hit you until the end. Really brilliant film but a bit too long.
@@Jpro2000 Definitely too long yeah, after watching it I'm not sure if I hated it or if I loved it.
What I'm sure about is that I'm not gonna watch it a 2nd time anytime soon and that I'm relieved it's finaaaaally over
" Beau is Afraid " or " How to say that you have mommy issues without actually saying it : the movie "
@@harry1178 I don’t think his mommy issues are as bad as everyone thinks. But I wouldn’t know. I just believe he’s referencing other stories biblical, etc
I would do anything to see that movie again without knowing anything about it. It was a masterpiece, loved it.
Really grateful for all movies released by A24 and the support they give to innovative, talented directors with original ideas. It is refreshing to see that in the industry.
Agreed A24 is the first production company I actually bothered to remember. I trust their taste and I'll watch anything they put out. So far the only dud, imo, was Green Knight, and that's just a dud on the A24 scale, meaning it was still pretty decent. And plot aside, had amazing cinematography.
This feels like what my grandmother went through in the last few years of her life. All she wanted was to get home (even though she was home). Dementia’s not pretty 😔
Terrifying
I loved this movie. I feel like someone else has my anxiety for me for a few hours. So incredibly cathartic.
Yes! I finally felt seen after years of struggling with anxiety. To have Ari portray it on the big screen so accurately hyperbolized it’s so brillliant
Oh how those anxious and depressed people like to brag about it on CZcams. Congratulations 👏 👏 👏
@@hayward022 oh how those insecure people love to reply about it on CZcams. Congratulations
@@hayward022 I don't think their comment was to get points for having a mental illness dude
Hayward is one of the myriad of reasons why people with anxiety actually have anxiety. They don't know how to live in a world where their narcissistic behaviors aren't front and center, everyone else, or kindness be damned.
This movie is a modern day classic. Ari aster is a genius. As far as creativity I’ve never seen a movie like this before. The scene where Elaine kisses beau an the mothers like “what is this” I never laughed so hard in my life
This looks like Ari Aster is doing a Charlie Kaufman script and I AM HERE FOR IT.
I'd rather it was a film from Charlie Kaufman himself if Ari felt the need to rip him off completely
My repeated thought watching this trailer: "Synecdoche, New York"
@@erinburke9711 especially him watching a play of himself as himself?
I get Kaufman’s most recent work from this, but my first thought was Being There but by Terry Gilliam
My thoughts exactly. It made me think of Synecdoche, New York for some reason.
I had the pleasure of working with Joaquin as an actor in Hollywood before he was famous, and he hasn' t changed a bit. He's still the same shy, modest kid he always was. And hugely talented. A million best wishes, Joaquin..
Joaquin is a throwback to actors from the past like Brando, who have a thrilling reality about them. You seldom see this in Hollywood anymore..
Are you afraid, Beau?
@Bill, No, not yet.. I think the film will do well, as Joaquin is a remarkable actor. He's very rare in modern day Hollywood.
@@sbilldmilk came here just for this
And he's an AMAZING animal rights activist 🌱✊
I laughed. I cried. I was anxious. I was taken on a journey and felt things. This is what cinema is about. Thank you Ari Aster for making an entertaining movie for YOUR fans. This is definately not a movie for normies or people that go to movies to see the same hum-drum and archetypes you see in every movie.
This trailer is far more light hearted than the movie itself
This is what I want to see above all else when it comes to movies. Something from a filmmaker who has a vision and wants to slap me across the face with it. Repeatedly.

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE BACK!
Not the 43rd iteration of whatever Disnomarvel is picking out of their butts. No a shitty remake of a beloved and sacred franchise. A MOVIE.
I love how Ari Aster’s third film feels so completely different than his first two films. This looks like such a fresh horror movie. Also, I don’t know if that is just a kid or really Joaquin Phoenix as the kid but they look SO SIMILAR HOLY CRAP!
Phoenix*
More dark comedy than horror
how would it be him as the kid?
With CGI, like Benjamin Button or Twilight.
In Avatar 2 Sigourney Weaver, who is 73, played a kid
Seeing this in theaters last week blew me away. It definitely has it's flaws but it's such an experience you can't afford to miss it. The opening half hour was some of the funniest cinema I've watched in a very long time and the rest is just crazy, mostly in a good way!
It’s good to see Nathan Lane acting again. Can’t wait to see this in the theater.
He never stopped.
I can't tell if I'm gonna find this movie to be more terrifying, or hysterical... and that has me so excited. Ari sure is talented filmmaker. I'm glad he's switching up his style. Almost feels like this film was made for Joaquin, it's his style of weird/funny/tragic.
I think it’s going to be deeply terrifying.
it’s ari aster so it’s probably going to be deeply disturbing
@@tylerdavis6919 it's a horror comedy
@@lewispoll4409 yeah.
I think we all know what is going to happen. At least I know. The music...it really gives you a false hope of cheerines haha. Nope. I think midsomnar scarred me enough.
I love the detail that the trailer begins in a dark way. Almost like Ari Aster telling you "See? I'm the director of Hereditary" But then things turn into some kind of crazy adventure through the mind of a protagonist with certain mental problems.
It's making me immediately get the vibe of a struggle with mental health as one of the overall metaphors. Very excited for this, I love Joaquin in pretty much everything he's in
Is he a hyperchondriac? Afraid of his mother?

this trailer is one of the best ever made, it got me so hyped without giving anything away. i saw the movie on its preview night last thursday and it did not disappoint! it's now in my top 5 of all movies i've seen in the past year.
And which are 4 others?
sad this didin't have an oscar nomination, one of the best 2023 movies
Love that Ari is really leaning into the comedy aspect of his style, this feels really unique. Can't wait to see what they've been working on.
Nah i wish he continued his horror aspect. Hopefully Ari wont disapoint
It's unique if you ignore how glaringly similar it looks to a Charlie Kaufman or Daniels film, sure.
@@fraundakelmbrilpondaprost90 got that swiss army man vibes for sure imo. cant wait!
The fact that you think what you saw is funny and I am having flashbacks of dreams that only Freud and my therapist might understand only proves Ari Aster's brilliance.
@@FF-oo8nz Some of horror's best filmmakers (Bob Clark, Eli Roth, Sam Raimi, Peele, del Toro, etc) have all definitely had some time in the sun with comedy; they generally go together really well. Stoked to see how Aster does it!

This film is an instant classic. Thank you Ari Aster for being so inventive and symbolic with your messaging. This film was incredibly original.

Have you ever seen Hereditary? It's beyond brilliant!
@@sharknado623 duh.
Midsommar kind of sucked. Hereditary was decent. This looks like it's gonna be a rip off of Brazil

how is midsommar its own sub genre? pretty standard horror movie really
I have a weird feeling this is going to be a combination of The Truman Show & Misery on steroids. Ari Aster’s first two were nothing short of masterpieces. This will eclipse both. I’m so excited for this movie and I’ve been waiting for this trailer for almost two years now. LFG Beau!
@Scott Alleman nah it's a totally different revelation man. I read the script that leaked and this is probably his most ambitious and exception story
@Scott Alleman it doesn’t at all in my opinion. more like a fever dream. plus i don’t think that ari aster is gonna really give us much through his trailer, we’ll just have to wait and see :)
With a dash of wizard of oz for good measure
Nope
its much more like mother!, with almost a road trip type script
Trailer:
This is Walter Mitty.
Actual Movie:
Some Franz Kafka shit.
Even an Aster trailer has more love, art and awesomeness packed into it than 97% of what comes out of Hollywood these days.
This is a Hollywood film, isn't it?
@ln+3rna1hàbän3r0s nah. A24 are an independent entertainment company based in NYC, so they're currently free from Hollywood's shackles. I have this awful feeling some giant Hollywood company will try and acquire them soon though because they keep throwing out banging films.
Let me guess, were you born in the wrong generation too?
@@itsgonnabeanaurfromme You know what they mean.
@@whiskii oh I see. So people running independent films aren't there to make money and appeal to the masses, right? They're entirely different people with pure motivations?
The biggest thing about Joaquin's movies is that viscerally you feel that each character he plays is simply a true expression or extension of himself. It's a bit sad to me but I thank him in the long run for his thespian talent and the sacrifices he has made for all of us.
Yes I agree, he is an extraordinary actor who always, to me, has a hint of heartbreak and sadness.
@@irene_f. he did of course watch his brother die in front of him
I don't feel that way.
@@redfordreddington8834 and nobody gives a shit
@@atom2493 okay jabroni
I simply want more movies from Ari Aster !!
I saw this movie months ago and haven't stopped thinking about it.
Ari Aster + Joaquin Phoenix = An unforgettable experience
Finally, a film to be excited for
But, I've never met Joaquin IRL....
Oh.. not this Ari, my bad
The Northman? Bones and all? Nope?
Yea. Besides the Batman, puss n boss, Last year kinda sucked
@@AZITHEMLGPRO EEAAO, Banshees of Inisherin, Tár, Barbarian, Pearl, Triangle of Sadness, RRR, The Fablemans, Speak No Evil, Top Gun: Maverick, Nope, The Northman, and so many more. This was a historic year!
Hii
As chaotic as this trailer is, it fills me with peace. I can’t explain why. The ending of the trailer always gives me goosebumps
0:15 I can't wait to see how this part became in the movie
@@miguelaglramos I wonder how the original short film will translate
It's Goodbye Stranger, by Supertramp, that's why
funny how they always fool us with the trailer into something that the movie never is.
Will not be bait.
@@JoHn-if6wy I’d say A24 tends to give us that exact movie.
this movie is without a doubt a massively complex and unconventional, yet realistic, take on multiple different interlinking themes such as a mothers influence on her children’s later life and how their whole perception of the world can be shaped by this. i for one absolutely adored this movie, however i can understand why it won’t be for everyone. but that’s ari aster, and once you understand his vision and how he’s a truly unique filmmaker it’s hard not to respect what he’s doing.
this won’t be for everyone, this isn’t a massive hollywood blockbuster that critics will label as a ‘must see’ and give 10/10 reviews to. however i can’t thank a24 enough for allowing these movies to be made for people like myself who have grown bored of conventional horror movies.
i loved this movie.
0:25- to those that have seen this movie already, I think that this company is listed as a producer for the film, makes for a pretty great meta joke about who is making this movie and why
I love A24 movies. They're pure artistic expression. Thank The All for the boldness of Ari Aster. The All delivers and Ari goes to work. He don't give a crap what anybody thinks about his stories.
lol what do you mean theyve all been well recieved
Just sad knowing what will happen to them when they start making more money. WB used to be the A24 of the 70's, look what they've become now. That's Hollywood for ya
That doesn't seem like a quality
Repent to Jesus Christ ““Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”

This is Joker after being released from the nut house.
After the success of “Everything, Everywhere, All At Once”, I wouldn’t be surprised to see “Beau Is Afraid” reach that summit, especially with Joaquin Phoenix starring in a wacky, self-imploding, & an artistic motion picture masterpiece with Ari Aster to direct
If I know Ari Aster, I'm cautious to call this wacky and self-imploding. I was one of the dumbasses who thought Midsommar would be a romance.
I can't believe I am saying this but this is probably my favorite Ari Aster film so far, Hereditary was great, Midsommar was pretty good but Beau is Afraid is on whole another level. What a film, this is cinema.
I 💯 agree 👍 💯 🙌 👌
Midsummer was so awful. None of the characters were relatable and the movie went nowhere. Steaming pile of shit
This film - one of the best things ever happen to me.
Same here, it changed everything
This was actually a really good trailer, showed a lot of the chaos that’s about to unfold without actually revealing too much.
The folklore that always gives birth to Ari's ideas are just as fascinating as his story telling and cinematic immersion.
Add A24 to the mix and this will be epic
all of his films are A24 bro
AND JOAQUIN FUCKING PHOENIX
@@lepekhovm I don't rate him personally I think he's wooden and overrated
@@David_Camerwrongun He's a lot of things but I don't think "wooden" is one of them
@@David_Camerwrongun lol , overrated my ass
This is not an entertainment movie. This is the author's statement on the archetype of the devouring mother. Anyone who cannot get out of their mother's overprotection and get rid of guilt is a must-see.
You know the movie's good when half the comments are calling it garbage
A24 doesn’t mess around! They continue to produce the most unique, ingenious, mind-bending films! Keep ‘em coming! 😊
My name 🥰
Absolutely
@B-dub what other movies do you recommend?
They have only produced 13 good movies I think. The others are either just brought at festivals they then distribute
They should do House of Leaves next! Its an almost impossible book to adapt but if anyone can they could
This movie is like a straight up fever dream the whole time. Just pure insanity and I loved every single minute. Just go watch it.
this style of film making is so boring now. it’s a dime a dozen
Ari Aster and Joaquein Phoenix...an atomic bomb. Impossible not to see it.
This looks like a positively gorgeous insane combination of horror humor heart and an utterly bonkers tornado of weirdness. Ari just keeps getting better and better
This is the best description of this trailer for me lol
"bonkers tornado of weirdness" Thank you for that
I don't really get the praise A24 gets. They aren't perfect. They have a lot of hits and misses. Either you finish watching feeling satisfied by how unique and complete the experience was or unsatisfied by how nonsensical and incomplete the story was.
@@randomvideoboy1 are you putting out anything better??
He who just even attempts great films, is to be given some type of automatic respect. I oft times fear we have achieved our zenith in some of our art forms.
Aster on grief and loss: terrifying
Aster on fear: hilarious
The type of director that is going to save the movie industry
The most ambitious and challenging film of the year. I loved it. Let Ali Aster make more movies. And Joaquin's performance was phenomenal.
That moment when you are more excited for a trailer than you've been all year for anything else.
This year’s just started💀
10 days in already!

Huh?
The last time I had that feeling was when I saw the trailer for Everything, everywhere all at once. And that movie was a total jackpot
This looks insane! Not what I was expecting at all. Definitely seeing this in theaters
Looks so trippy😀can’t tell what’s going on. Can’t wait!
Just a head’s up, Aster said in 2020 that it would be 4 hours long, so bring a piss bucket to the theater
@@justin2597 that’s crazy. Ill go buy a bucket rn thanks
@@KingCrimson68and I'll go see the premier with you so I can save money on drinks!
@ClassicFilm Collector88 you mean 3?
Genuinely one of the best movies I’ve evee seen, Phoenix gives a stellar performance and the script feels like a modern Kafka wrote it
This was handsdown the weirdest movie I have ever seen. I loved every single moment. What a ride. I never saw what was coming next.
You don't see Donnie Darko, Eraserhead, Blue Velvet...?
@usedjellyfish Dude, if you like weird and different, you're in for a treat. Check out any of Ari's other flicks... midsommar, hereditary., etc.
But here are some other fine examples of otherworldly, weird, and downright hypnotizing movies:
Vivarium, Strawberry Mansion, Mad God, Infinity pool, That evening sun, Brazil, The Civil Dead, Dark City, Get Out, Nope, Greener Grass, Tank Girl, Turbo Kid, 1984...
...or really ANYTHING by directors Lynch, Cronenberg, Peele and Gilliam. (All part of the "big 5" in my opinion when it comes to very different but fascinating movies, which of course also includes Ari Aster in that 5).
M Night Shyamalan as a director is hit or miss too (he could technically fall into this group as well), but I don't think his movies are "quite" as mesmerizing and interesting as the others I just mentioned.
There's many more great examples if you go down the rabbit hole. (Like the other commenter said - Erasurehead being one similar to a terrifying fever dream).
They have over 50 movies (made by them), a company that started out in 2012 by distributing independent movies, now they’ve brought us masterpieces like “Midsommar”, “The Lighthouse”, “Men”, “Hereditary”, “It Comes At Night”, “Ex Machina” and “Everything Everywhere All At Once”, i love A24, i hope they’ll get the recognition that they truly deserve.
@beepboop i’m sorry if i got that wrong, i first got into A24 back in 2018, i’m not a know it all..
Knew they would be a hit the second I saw Spring Breakers, their 3rd film!
Dude they’ve won many awards already and is a power house in Hollywood.
They're the Miramax of the 21st century
@Milli I think they're in New York, not Hollywood. Probably why they release actual good, unique movies that aren't just remakes and female reboots like Hollywood thinks we want. I'm so glad we have a western publisher that loves the art again and escapes those tropes.
The way Joaquin reflects every color of the human psyche is just a beautiful thing to see. He's iridescent.
Overrated really.
You said iridescent.
Stop trying to sound so profound.
wtf
@@darnelldinkins77 Stop making useless comments.
Joaquin is truly one of a kind. I had the pleasure of working with him as an actor in Hollywood, before he was famous and he was a joy to behold. Modest, genuine and with time for everyone. He has this thrilling reality about him that you seldom see anymore.. A million best wishes, Joaquin..
Hollywood could take a lesson from him..
I have to say this is the maybe the best movie I’ve ever seen
Ari Aster, supertramp and magnificent cast. A24 getting ready to drop another bomb. They just never disappoint.

honestly. half of the trailer is good, the other half is too bright, happy , too pg6. movie could be not good.
@@JButterZJ oh man, you're dumb.
@@JButterZJ thats what im afraid of as well but i really want to trust ari on this matter. i believe he's aware.
@@JButterZJ That's the point, dude... Aster is a MAD GENIUS at building contrast on a film! Can't freaking wait to watch this movie 🔥🔥🔥
This is the most insane movie trailer I’ve ever seen, I couldn’t keep up with it for a second and I have no clue what the movie will even be about. I love it.
It's not that crazy... Beau is a character who exaggerates everything in negativity - he is scared of everything and has a lot of imaginary bad things happen.
A guy standing in the street will look like a gun crazed criminal to Beau.
I agree 😂 I can’t wrap my head around it until I see it. I enjoy odd movies that takes me out of my comfort zone.
This is not some basic movie, it is not an easy watch. The movie will cause alot of anxiety and confusion, it will also task you mentally just by attempting to understand the plot. Very glad i watched it, i will never forget this movie.
Translation, this movie is dog shit.
I love how the MW logo is presented as a studio for the movie
Ari is one of the best filmmakers to come up over the past 10 years, so hyped for another amazing movie from him👍
did u see the debut of Brandon Cronenberg? Possessor?
I feel like ari aster is going to be such an inspiration to future writers/directors because of his creativity..he has a rare talent
I love this movie but I totally understand why a lot of people don’t.
I feel the same. I actually thought it was really good, but a few scenes I thought were questionable...which I won't talk about to avoid spoilers. Anyone who has seen it probably knows what I'm referring to anyway, lmao. I like all 3 of Ari Aster's movies. Particularly Midsommar, which I know is a strange opinion because most people say Hereditary was the best. And typically I prefer paranormal movies, so you'd think I would prefer that one as well. I just felt that Midsommar was more unique in a lot of ways.
Just watched it. This movie was so good, loved it
The people that has been following ari's career knows that this tráiler has a lot of references of his earliest works and it makes me so exited bc you can see that this movie is probably one of his most personal works yet.
Indeed, a tráiler. Or a træíleur as they say on the Continent.
Like his mommy/daddy issues?

I really hope this starts a new trend
@@the_wonderingjew The trend started years ago
Haven't you ever seen Being John Malkovich or Eternal Sunshine or Synecdoche New York?
@@danculbert6349 true. Those are all FANTASTIC. But the most recent is 15 years ago. What do ya got more recent than that?
@C.A. Green Well definitely Everything, Everywhere. The Darren Aronofsky film "Mother!" is absolutely nuts, but tonally very serious and dark, also "I'm thinking of ending things" is pretty out there and existential. "Birdman" is another one. There's probably more. It's not a trend as ubiquitous as Superhero movies, but there's still good, wacky, existential auteur cinema out there
@@danculbert6349 yes all good examples. And maybe it’s better that way, otherwise we’d get a whole slew of new slick and artistic movies just for the sake of being authentic.
Phoenix should win an Oscar. I have never seen a more mind-numbing, disturbing, terrifying movie than this. In fact, no one has ever made such a movie before. People, watch it and help everyone who is going through mental problems. Even if he doesn't ask you for help, help him anyway.
The trailer is way more uplifting than the movie itself 😂
Love how this looks very different in tone from Midsommar and Hereditary yet you still feel uneasy in typical Aster fashion. So stocked for this !

I was in highschool when A24 started making movies and I felt like such a cool film nerd because I could recommend all the new movies to my friends and we were all equally blown away. I stopped keeping up with them a while ago just because I got away from movies, but this makes me as excited to see this as their earlier stuff did! Looks absolutely fantastic, love the style, what it might be about, and I love Joaquin Phoenix so I’ll definitely see this one!
I don't really get the praise A24 gets. They aren't perfect. They have a lot of hits and misses. Either you finish watching feeling satisfied by how unique and complete the experience was or unsatisfied by how nonsensical and incomplete the story was.
They don't make movies, but they do pick them. Not a perfect catalog, but definitely has a good library of unforgettable artistic films nonetheless.
a24 is my favorite director too!!!!????!
@@randomvideoboy1 It's almost like the really good ones are why they're so highly praised.
You need to come back to movies. Especially for Jesse eisenburgs A24 movie
Metaphor for living with anxiety . Maybe the craziness of this will help people understand it.
'Life is war
and every days a battle to me
I'm on the brink of insanity
Between extreme intelligence
and split personality'
"metaphor for living with anxiety", its not a metaphor, its a film that shows a man whos anxious and how he percieves the world. The metaphor, or like deeper meaning, would be how having such an intense Oedipus Complex can hold you back in life. An even deeper metaphor you can take away is the fear of God
@Tyco I've not seen the film it was just my take from the trailer ie to someone who hasn't had anxiety on a deep level the vivid colours and loud noises could be seen as metaphorical. I need to watch the film though :)
