It certainly helped that he started very early, demonstrated talent and had the look. Connections arrived through that and his school, and possibly family friends. He has the perfect 'coming of age' look for this era. What's interesting is how many of the classic young male lead roles he's getting that you'd usually see in more athletic looking actors - Michael B Jordan, Cavill, Chris Evans etc 5-10 years ago. Dev Patel in 'The Green Knight' is a recent example of how you'd historically see those roles cast, but Chalamet playing Henry V, for example, just looked odd.
i think its funny how people like to undermine his work solely bc of his looks, as if thats not the case for every single other actor in hollywood lol. like yeah of course it helps them land certain roles, but in the end their performance in the movie is what really matters, and things like an oscar nomination for a movie he filmed at 19 really show you the great actor he actually is.
Pretty actors are often put in a box. Case in point, Johnny Depp, a natural character actor everyone wanted to do leading man roles. He had to work darn hard and attach himself to Tim Burton to pursue the quirky roles he wanted. Working with Denis Villeneuve and Wes Anderson are great steps in Timothee proving can't be put in one box. And yes, it did take Leo a lot of years and a lot of support from Martin Scorcese to come back from the expectations Titanic created. He already had Gilbert Grape on the books and they still wanted to write him of as a talentless pretty boy.
The young male actors that get attacked for being "just a pretty face" all have one thing in common: their faces are massively popular with young women (including Leo in his time). Like you said, every actor gets a foothold through their looks. But anything that teen girls like has people scrambling to declare it Officially Bad.
he is an extremely bad actor. brad pitt is a good looking guy too and no one undermines his work because he actually has a lot of acting talent. this kid has not. it is non-explainable to me me why is getting all of these roles. i actually left cinema 2 times because he was so so so bad i couldn't even finish the movie. i'm sick of little teenagers in love with this guy looks and because of that claiming that he is a great actor. he is not.
Chalamet could get an Oscar relatively young if he finds the right role. DiCaprio was held back by his Titanic era teen idol status and a reputation for hard partying. Chalamet has already shown an awareness of industry politics that will serve him well.
That's why I hate that people focus on his looks solely. This isn't the reason why he's successful. I've been a fan since his Miss Stevens days, and I'm surprised that it's his looks people are now focusing on. He's an exceptional actor with incredible skills that he worked hard to hone. Fans who only focus on his looks are under-appreciating him, doing him a disservice imo
@@Rageify I am not jealous, hell I even say good for that kid with the success he’s found. But his looks are the reason he is successful. Sure he might have atleast a bit of talent, but you really think someone of the same level hes on or even above are going to get the same attention if theyre average/below average looking? If so you do not know how hollywood works 😂 They pick attractive/unique faces to reel in an audience
@@degenerategambler4830But his “good-looking” attribute will NOT work if his talent is mediocre, esp in the roles that are given him. These roles are NOT the run-of-the-mill kind, e.g., pretty boy. When you watch his movies you look/feel/internalize how he puts himself into the character that his being good-looking can be easily overlooked.
I just want to point out something I know as a New Yorker-- LaGuardia HS is a PUBLIC (free) high school-- not something you pay to attend and you cannot buy your way in either (it's very strict about this bc it's funded by taxes just like all other public high schools in NYC) The only way to get into LaGuardia is to take a city-wide entrance exam AND do an audition. He got into that prestigious school solely based on talent! Also, I don't know why people keep saying he grew up rich... he lived in a subsidized housing apt complex in a not that rich part of town (Hell's Kitchen)-- given how expensive NYC is, even though his parents have nice jobs, he sounds more middle class to me...
I hope I didn't give the impression that he grew up "rich" If so, I apologize. He certainly isn't a nepotism baby lol. He just does come from a moderately upper-middle-class background.
@@LanceTheEditor LOL! He is a very good and talented,up-and-coming actor,but I suggest you check his IMDB and Wiki entries/profiles,because initially he is the prefect epitome of a 'nepotism baby',unless you didn't know what the dictionary definition of 'nepotism' meant in the first place!
@@MrSinclairn Certainly not on the same level as other actors, whose parents are actually actors or in the industry themselves. I did mention his parents both had very good jobs.

He exaggerates movements well, and does it in a way it looks natural. Pretty slick.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos He seems to have astounding range. I actually recognise it as a performer (in a sense) myself. It is the ability to PUNCH that personality out, like the wit of a comedian. And he can just add a template to it, understand it and then punch it. Its so cool to see. I watched a freestyle comic do a similar thing on youtube recently czcams.com/video/rhaWdHJ7wcE/video.html Basically just being able to compound the ideas and then put them out through a tight funnel, so it shoots out at the same pace as everyone observing or faster, keeping them on their toes. Haha, never been so impressed by an actor.
Timothee came into my life with Call Me By Your Name and has never left since. As an actor and as a human being, he is the cat's meow, exemplary, however you'd like to put it. Long live Timothée! :) ps--Thank you for this video--!
Timothee being Paul was one of the best decisions. Becuase in the book, Paul atreides was described as someone who didn't look like a hero type whom people who look upto as a messiah and timothee fits right in.
I don't know if I'm stupid or something but I didn't understand that movie... maybe it's cause I hadn't read the book but I was sitting in the cinema trying to understand the plot like what the hell is going on haha

all due respect, not because of his performance. Almost ALL castings in Dune are insane. Rebecca Ferguson - might as well call it her movie jesus was she good. Oscar Isaac - portraying the noble tragedy that is Leto so well, a layered character. ALLLLLL
I am not into romance movies, nor gay movies as being gay myself I often find them vulgar if not caricatural. Call Me By Your Name is a breakthrough, it's like water painting, every stroke giving more and more details, it's subtle and elegant, and at the end I wanted to watch it again. They all nailed it, something my teen me could totally relate to.
I'm a huge Interstellar fan. Seen in countless times, one of the best movies imo. I was completely unaware he played Cooper's son, Tom. He was completely overshadowed by Cooper and Murph characters.
It’s his PASSION for acting that “dredge” all the talents that he has and put them out there for us to see! From his interviews one can glean that he reads about the great actors, directors, books & watch great movies. Imagine him having one-on-one talk with Martin Scorcese! Who among the old artists have done that? Or among his young contemporaries? NONE!
Timothy is brilliant. He deserves all the success and accolades he’s receiving. We all hope those things don’t change him. This is a very unique actor, age aside, which is saying something.
It’s thrilling to see his growth so early in his career- which makes the strides he will be making in the next few years ever so more impactful. Looking forward to watching his performances in Dune and The French Dispatch. Also, very informative video- really love this kind of content!
So funny when I rewatched Interstellar the other day I realized... wait... that's Timothée Chalamet... There's always that first movie you see someone starring in and only realize in restrospect they were in it.. same with Tom Hardy in Layer Cake
It's very simple. Unlike Disney stars, Timothée cares about the art of cinema. He cares about theatre and clearly has a passion for it and it shows with his work.
Not always the case... its very easu to say 'well I got these roles because I care about cinema' lol, but 99% of actors aren't afforded that luxury, you take what you're given when you're starting out... some happen to end up on the disney channel as their first role, some get a lead in a tv show, and some luckily, get cast in indie movie that gets crazy success, and lets you have ability going forward, to have simila oppurtunities... it's a lot of luck, but talent needed to capitalsie on that luck, so not.. it's not simple at all, or it be much more common
There’s no way an actor can go this far with just talent. He’s genuinely blessed by god or some high power (not to be religious lol) to have such an astronomical rise as he has. I can’t even imagine the amount of struggling actors out there. Timothee has come a very long way and he acts his ass off. I think he’s also lucky in the sense to look the way he does (handsome, white male in an industry where Hollywood doesn’t really embrace color actors) and he knows it. I think he’ll go very far indeed. Every project he does is more exciting than the last. Couldn’t initially stand him but have grown to really like him as an actor. Call Me By Your Name was fantastic work and still my personal favorite. He was pretty good in The King and Beautiful Boy. Don’t think he’s the best young actor working, but he’s definitely one of them! He has a long and amazing career ahead. Quite certain he’s been kissed by the angels. He’s only 25 and what a hell of a ride! Every young actor’s dream career 🔥
@Gary Revel Jr. very true. 9/10 actors don’t get the level of connections or PR that he has. He’s been projected on another level compared to his contemporaries. He even got a referral for his agent by Damien Lewis himself. The kid’s had connections to very high places and it helps he’s worked his ass off as well. He was bred for an acting career since his days at LaGuardia HS
@Gary Revel Jr. I have to admit I’m jealous as well. This sounds ridiculous but I’ve been a struggling actor for a while now and I do at times (very foolishly) think in my lowest moments that the greatest aspirations I ever had in life are being lived by Timothee. I’m sorry to hear about your poor experiences. I hope you are still acting in your native country and doing brilliantly for yourself. It’s all a game of luck, I suppose. And connections. Timothee is living every struggling actor’s dream. I can’t even imagine. They say 10,000+ wannabes in LA and over the US, some extraordinarily talented and some just fame hungry who don’t even care about being a part of great cinema or theatre. It’s one of those great mysteries of life that this right place right time thing is.
I totally understand what you mean, but I think he won golden ticket with CMBYN, Elio certainly is very much "his" character, he did him so well. I felt in love immediately and didn't see any other characters of the movie, I was so mesmerised by him, I felt for him. What I mean is Elio character did let him opened up his potential at most, it was perfect match. Gosh, I love this movie.
You were doing so well! If he isn't the best young actor working (and I know comparisons are odious), I'd like to know who is. Everything you say trumpets that he's the finest we've got, (and I agree). Also, as you say, he has gifts that even go beyond his enormous talent. And he's on the cover of friggin' TIME! :)
*I'm just waiting for the day Adam Driver, Timothee Chalamet, and Leonardo DiCaprio will do a movie together. they're all of some of the best actors of their respective generations*
This guy blew me away in Dune, I slept on him as an actor and now I want to see his other movies. He reminds me a lot of 2 actors in their young ages: Martin Sheen and Jake Gyllenhaal. They have the young boyish looks in their youth but they all have very intense facial acting that I think really plays well to the roles they took. He also reminds me of a young Brad Pitt and I think if he continues pushing the boundaries with his roles he will become a household name.
Thank you, that was the best video in a long time. Timothée is extremely talented and reminds me when I've first seen a young actor in Basketball Diaries. He's looking for challenging parts, and it was smart choices. I also love when actors go back on stage. A star is born.
I knew about Tim since Call me by your name, you know, there was that one good-looking actor named Timothee Chalamet. Never really paid attention to him. Saw his face on news sometimes, and was impressed like dang, this man is really handsome, no wonder he is so famous. Until very recently, I got to watch Don't look up with my friends cuz I heard Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio starred in the movie, and then I saw him, I was like, is that... Timothee Chalamet? Yeah that was him. Omg, got in love with him after the movie. Then I looked up his name and watched Call me by your name, and Beautiful boy, and Ladybird. Was totally blown away by how good he is as an actor. He is so young, and handsome, but his talent is undeniable. Cuz I don't have a lot of free time, I don't usually like to watch random stuff, but his stuff is not random. He is a serious guy
I think she Will become like Frances McDormand. She really didn't push her career to starring in blockbuster movies (for example: Margot Robbie) and stay at low budget/indie movies
I watched 'The King' four times because of his and a coupe of other actors performance. Only later I found the historical inaccuracies, but that didn't matter. Watched Dune and was impressed even further. Well done!
I remembered him as the younger version of the elder son of Mathew McConaughey in Interstellar... After Dune, I watched his Call me By Your Name...HE HAS A GREAT FUTURE AHEAD.
What a great video and very accurately about Timothée! And I agree: I love the way you talk and sooo eloquent!! 🤓😎😌🥰🙂 👌🏼 soo great > I immediately hit the “like” 👍🏼 button for this video, and saved it in my “Timothée Chalamet playlist” (I also love the music 🎶 you chose!) and I hit the subscribe button for your channel!! 💻 👩🏽💻 💜🧡
RESPECT! EVERYTHING THIS YOUNG GENTLEMAN DOES HE DOES BECAUSE HE'S SO COMFORTABLE IN HIS OWN SKIN AND WHO HE IS AS A PERSON AND ACCEPTS HOW TALENTED HE IS HE IS AMAZING AND IT IS SO WONDERFUL TO FOLLOW HIS CAREER I WISH YOU MANY MANY YEARS OF HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS I KNOW YOU ALREADY ARE A LEGEND BUT YOU ARE GOING TO FAR SURPASS THAT I AM SURE! GOD BLESS
People born in New York have a leg up in learning the acting craft from great teachers and the eclectic atmosphere that exists there. Of course one has to have the want too and the earnestness and honesty to put forth the hard work required. As one who acted in small plays in the Dallas area in the not too distant past. Standing up, realizing an audience or other actors and directors are watching and inevitably critiquing your performance not only requires nerves at the very least. But the wherewithal to bring out the character you're portraying in a believable commanding performance. I failed eventually. I so respect these people these talented ❤ people that possess their characters on Stage and Screen so magically, but more importantly through the hard work put into this tough craft that the emotion of a moment captured by these professionals reaches out into the audience and grips you and can move one to tears, to fear, to sheer astonishment as if it's reality ❤ brought to life. Watching this young man grow and develop over the years should be quite a trip. Brando, even in so-so films managed 👌 to maintain that dynamic hold he held over all who watched his films. 👋 I'm commenting on this interesting narrative of this young man because after failing at acting I succeeded driving tractor trailers all over our country mostly for FEDEX. And the other day I had someone comment to me about how hard it is keeping to these schedules. Then he said I wish I was an actor then I'd be on the laid back gravy train. So as you can imagine I proceeded to tell him how wrong he is about that industry. There's a reason why the top of the mountain isn't overpopulated in the acting industry. Movies and the Stage. Time at the top can be fleeting for most. But the greats maintain excellence over long periods. It truly is an exhausting industry but one that touches the ❤ heart of mankind like no other.
Not really correct what you are saying > in Beautiful Boy he starred out w/ pot, pills etc. , then meth and heroin as well later…! that’s what he was shooting up with his GF when she almost OD’d , and later on in the toilet/ WC of a restaurant as well… & then lying on the floor, almost OD’ing himself 🥺😢😟💔
He is a successful, talented young male actor with good looks. Anyone disliking him is either jealous because he looks better than them or just hate to see someone successful. That’s all there is to it.
As a fan, I admit I was unenthused when I first learned he'd be taking on the character of Paul for that very reason. I guess I felt he deserved, especially for his first major role in a blockbuster, a role that allowed him to fully utilize/show off his strengths- subtlety, expressiveness, physicality, intelligence- as an actor. He's utterly hypnotic when he gets to flex all those strengths. His trademark subtlety can tend to get 'lost' in the glitziness of a made-for-big screen film like Dune. But on further thought, anyone as serious about their craft as Timothee clearly is, will be willing to take on a variety of roles in films big or small- to grow and hone their abilities. He's taken (what I think to be) a pretty big risk by taking on this type of role for such a large audience to see, and hopefully both his most enthusiastic fans and loudest detractors will be willing to give him a chance to blossom without heaping on expectations of grandeur or failure.
@@Alittleb1tterI think he takes those criticisms with a grain of salt. In one interview, he said that he doesn’t read reviews of his movies because he respects whatever comments are given. What’s important to him is that the viewers react on his role - negative or positive it maybe - since most of his movies dig into the feelings of viewers.
Sorry for using "whom" instead of "who" I think my accent got in the way of me there! lmao. "who" is grammatically correct. Sorry if this is annoying to anyone.
He's a new yorker, we're not afraid of ANY area in NYC. I've lived in the Bronx and have seen rough parts of the city my entire life, the most I ever felt threatened was in East New York but that's it. We've seen it all. Been there, done that. Haha.
@@LanceTheEditorSame here. If you’re in NYC you have to be ALWAYS aware of your surrounding, doesn’t matter if it’s 5th, Mad Avs, “high end” areas, people you meet - nicely dressed or smelly, tattered ones, the smells, the sounds, the brassy, suspicious yet helpful, kind, what you see is what get attitudes. You developed that easily-get-attuned to behavior. All that helps Timothée become how he is as an actor.
he was amazing in Call Me by Your Name...he deserves every success and he is like a young Leo...but better...i see him just honing his natural talent and getting better and better
Whata hell, interstellar is one of my 20 fav movies watched over 30 times and i never notest there was a son in dat movie played by this kid, my brain must have skip a part.
He worked his ass off, but its crazy how he gets these roles with top directors and actors so early in his career
Just like Leo did and Adam Driver. Something about good-looking men that command the screen.

@@sevenofnine2233 what? are you for real? 😂
I still believe The King was his best performance. That movie made me rethink what I was doing with my life and how I could contribute more.
interesting opinion. not my fav, but I still like his performance in there.
I love this young actor, as my grandson is his duplicate person it's truly uncanny
Idea to contribute: read about speciesism and antispeciesism 👌🏼
That role was definitely good practice for Dune
Agreed.
Chalamet could get an Oscar relatively young if he finds the right role. DiCaprio was held back by his Titanic era teen idol status and a reputation for hard partying. Chalamet has already shown an awareness of industry politics that will serve him well.

I can’t even imagine the amount of struggling actors out there. Timothee has come a very long way and he acts his ass off. I think he’s also lucky in the sense to look the way he does (handsome, white male in an industry where Hollywood doesn’t really embrace color actors) and he knows it. I think he’ll go very far indeed. Every project he does is more exciting than the last. Couldn’t initially stand him but have grown to really like him as an actor. Call Me By Your Name was fantastic work and still my personal favorite. He was pretty good in The King and Beautiful Boy. Don’t think he’s the best young actor working, but he’s definitely one of them! He has a long and amazing career ahead. Quite certain he’s been kissed by the angels. He’s only 25 and what a hell of a ride! Every young actor’s dream career 🔥
@Gary Revel Jr. very true. 9/10 actors don’t get the level of connections or PR that he has. He’s been projected on another level compared to his contemporaries. He even got a referral for his agent by Damien Lewis himself. The kid’s had connections to very high places and it helps he’s worked his ass off as well. He was bred for an acting career since his days at LaGuardia HS
@Gary Revel Jr. I have to admit I’m jealous as well. This sounds ridiculous but I’ve been a struggling actor for a while now and I do at times (very foolishly) think in my lowest moments that the greatest aspirations I ever had in life are being lived by Timothee. I’m sorry to hear about your poor experiences. I hope you are still acting in your native country and doing brilliantly for yourself. It’s all a game of luck, I suppose. And connections. Timothee is living every struggling actor’s dream. I can’t even imagine. They say 10,000+ wannabes in LA and over the US, some extraordinarily talented and some just fame hungry who don’t even care about being a part of great cinema or theatre. It’s one of those great mysteries of life that this right place right time thing is.
I totally understand what you mean, but I think he won golden ticket with CMBYN, Elio certainly is very much "his" character, he did him so well. I felt in love immediately and didn't see any other characters of the movie, I was so mesmerised by him, I felt for him. What I mean is Elio character did let him opened up his potential at most, it was perfect match. Gosh, I love this movie.
You were doing so well! If he isn't the best young actor working (and I know comparisons are odious), I'd like to know who is. Everything you say trumpets that he's the finest we've got, (and I agree). Also, as you say, he has gifts that even go beyond his enormous talent. And he's on the cover of friggin' TIME! :)
His mother is a producer in the industry, its called nepotism.
*I'm just waiting for the day Adam Driver, Timothee Chalamet, and Leonardo DiCaprio will do a movie together. they're all of some of the best actors of their respective generations*
I think Miss Stevens is his best and most underrated performance, there's just something about that film that is so perfect.
Not to worry, critics will revisit & give it a fair take.
its a shame that no one is talking about Beautiful Boy and how amazing he was in it..
God Timothee is so very talented I saw his movies when he was growing up and I love his movies I want to see more !!!!!!!!!!
As dark as the story is, Beautiful Boy is one of the (no pun intended) most beautiful film I have ever seen.
This guy blew me away in Dune, I slept on him as an actor and now I want to see his other movies. He reminds me a lot of 2 actors in their young ages: Martin Sheen and Jake Gyllenhaal. They have the young boyish looks in their youth but they all have very intense facial acting that I think really plays well to the roles they took. He also reminds me of a young Brad Pitt and I think if he continues pushing the boundaries with his roles he will become a household name.
Good God he's beautiful
Thank you, that was the best video in a long time.
Timothée is extremely talented and reminds me when I've first seen a young actor in Basketball Diaries.
He's looking for challenging parts, and it was smart choices. I also love when actors go back on stage. A star is born.
I knew about Tim since Call me by your name, you know, there was that one good-looking actor named Timothee Chalamet. Never really paid attention to him. Saw his face on news sometimes, and was impressed like dang, this man is really handsome, no wonder he is so famous. Until very recently, I got to watch Don't look up with my friends cuz I heard Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio starred in the movie, and then I saw him, I was like, is that... Timothee Chalamet? Yeah that was him. Omg, got in love with him after the movie. Then I looked up his name and watched Call me by your name, and Beautiful boy, and Ladybird. Was totally blown away by how good he is as an actor. He is so young, and handsome, but his talent is undeniable. Cuz I don't have a lot of free time, I don't usually like to watch random stuff, but his stuff is not random. He is a serious guy
Now please cover the rise of Saoirse Ronan
You just blew my mind.
I think she Will become like Frances McDormand. She really didn't push her career to starring in blockbuster movies (for example: Margot Robbie) and stay at low budget/indie movies
He is such a cool actor
ThatGuyWhoEdits… fantastic coverage story. Well done
still feel like crying everytime i see these kind of videos
Very sensitive and fair treatment of this young star. I must check out your other treatments! Thanks for this.
Great video and content was superb! Please do more videos! You speak with eloquent tones!!!
Great video! I like that you narrated it and that you had so many great clips. Great information and presentation!
Thanks for this report. I enjoyed watching and listening.
Nice video, deserve more subs
Thanks man. Just hit 1K the other day!
I watched 'The King' four times because of his and a coupe of other actors performance. Only later I found the historical inaccuracies, but that didn't matter.
Watched Dune and was impressed even further.
Well done!
Amazing video, I really enjoyed it. lots of effort and research done.
beauty
Great job with this video. I think you captured his rising career well and it was very educational for me.
He seems like a male equivalent of Rooney mara. Talented, slightly awkward demeanour and chooses challenging, independent film roles.
👍
@Jermaine Savory She was awesome in ladybird 👍
He’s incredible
excellent info and well put together. thank you.
Just watching this video sitting here like, "Oh my gosh how many movies has this guy done?? He's 25!"
I remembered him as the younger version of the elder son of Mathew McConaughey in Interstellar...
After Dune, I watched his Call me By Your Name...HE HAS A GREAT FUTURE AHEAD.
here a year later after watching him in Dune.
What a great video and very accurately about Timothée! And I agree: I love the way you talk and sooo eloquent!! 🤓😎😌🥰🙂 👌🏼 soo great > I immediately hit the “like” 👍🏼 button for this video, and saved it in my “Timothée Chalamet playlist” (I also love the music 🎶 you chose!) and I hit the subscribe button for your channel!! 💻 👩🏽💻 💜🧡
Thank you for your kind words.
@@LanceTheEditor: Absolutely!! You are very, very welcome! 💕🤍 It’s the honest truth! 🙂😊 and: THANK YOU for this lovely piece!!
Thanks for this!
this a very good and well researched video !! :D
Just a small correction - in Beautiful Boy he is addicted to methamphetamine, not heroin. Nice video btw!
I agree. Someone had made this correction before. My apologies! Glad you enjoyed the video!
He is extraordinary..
Timothee deserves it. he can do many roles yet it still fits him.
Loooooooved DUNE and cannot wait to see more of him!
RESPECT! EVERYTHING THIS YOUNG GENTLEMAN DOES HE DOES BECAUSE HE'S SO COMFORTABLE IN HIS OWN SKIN AND WHO HE IS AS A PERSON AND ACCEPTS HOW TALENTED HE IS HE IS AMAZING AND IT IS SO WONDERFUL TO FOLLOW HIS CAREER I WISH YOU MANY MANY YEARS OF HAPPINESS AND SUCCESS I KNOW YOU ALREADY ARE A LEGEND BUT YOU ARE GOING TO FAR SURPASS THAT I AM SURE! GOD BLESS
Love the content❤️
The finest actor of his generation 💜✌️🎥🔥 I.J.S.
People born in New York have a leg up in learning the acting craft from great teachers and the eclectic atmosphere that exists there. Of course one has to have the want too and the earnestness and honesty to put forth the hard work required. As one who acted in small plays in the Dallas area in the not too distant past. Standing up, realizing an audience or other actors and directors are watching and inevitably critiquing your performance not only requires nerves at the very least. But the wherewithal to bring out the character you're portraying in a believable commanding performance. I failed eventually. I so respect these people these talented ❤ people that possess their characters on Stage and Screen so magically, but more importantly through the hard work put into this tough craft that the emotion of a moment captured by these professionals reaches out into the audience and grips you and can move one to tears, to fear, to sheer astonishment as if it's reality ❤ brought to life. Watching this young man grow and develop over the years should be quite a trip. Brando, even in so-so films managed 👌 to maintain that dynamic hold he held over all who watched his films. 👋 I'm commenting on this interesting narrative of this young man because after failing at acting I succeeded driving tractor trailers all over our country mostly for FEDEX. And the other day I had someone comment to me about how hard it is keeping to these schedules. Then he said I wish I was an actor then I'd be on the laid back gravy train. So as you can imagine I proceeded to tell him how wrong he is about that industry. There's a reason why the top of the mountain isn't overpopulated in the acting industry. Movies and the Stage. Time at the top can be fleeting for most. But the greats maintain excellence over long periods. It truly is an exhausting industry but one that touches the ❤ heart of mankind like no other.
Love reading your comments.
Then Boom, he is Paul Atreides on #DUNE holy shite...
He gets better and better looking as he ages❤
I love him! He was great in “Call Me By Your Name”. He seems so much more mature than his age. Very smart guy and extremely talented!
You get an instant Subscribe and Like, because you do such a good job. Well done. And yea, being born and bred in NY, is always a plus. :)
he is SO babyyy
This just shows that following the skills and having discipline with what you're passionate about can get you a job you'll enjoy doing.
I’m very happy that at his age he is a great actor, great kid, congratulations 🎉🎊🎈 love the movie Dune, more than the first one 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💓
To say TC is absolutely brilliant, is understatement. I just watched " Little Women " and some of "The King" and all I can say is WOW !
i just realised he was Murphy's brother in Interstellar hahahaha
Love him glade he made it
In Beautiful Boy he is addicted to crystal meth not heroin! Otherwise a wonderful video.
Not really correct what you are saying > in Beautiful Boy he starred out w/ pot, pills etc. , then meth and heroin as well later…! that’s what he was shooting up with his GF when she almost OD’d , and later on in the toilet/ WC of a restaurant as well… & then lying on the floor, almost OD’ing himself 🥺😢😟💔
He is a successful, talented young male actor with good looks. Anyone disliking him is either jealous because he looks better than them or just hate to see someone successful. That’s all there is to it.
Don't you think he's hot?
lmao. He's a very good looking dude.
I do !!!! 🙂😍😌😊😀 💕🤍💕
Hey, I really like your videos, can you put subtitles below because I'm a foreigner
he's very inspiring to me
he's actually talented and hard-working
He is a once in a generation talent.
Best description of him so far.
This kid is good !
HE WILL GO A LONG WAY
lo amo!!! es tan talentoso y único
The king isn't intentionally historically inaccurate. It's based off a work by Shakespeare
Ppl say his performance in Dune was very bland like he lacked any emotion without realising his role is a cold calculated character
As a fan, I admit I was unenthused when I first learned he'd be taking on the character of Paul for that very reason. I guess I felt he deserved, especially for his first major role in a blockbuster, a role that allowed him to fully utilize/show off his strengths- subtlety, expressiveness, physicality, intelligence- as an actor. He's utterly hypnotic when he gets to flex all those strengths. His trademark subtlety can tend to get 'lost' in the glitziness of a made-for-big screen film like Dune. But on further thought, anyone as serious about their craft as Timothee clearly is, will be willing to take on a variety of roles in films big or small- to grow and hone their abilities.
He's taken (what I think to be) a pretty big risk by taking on this type of role for such a large audience to see, and hopefully both his most enthusiastic fans and loudest detractors will be willing to give him a chance to blossom without heaping on expectations of grandeur or failure.
@@Alittleb1tterI think he takes those criticisms with a grain of salt. In one interview, he said that he doesn’t read reviews of his movies because he respects whatever comments are given. What’s important to him is that the viewers react on his role - negative or positive it maybe - since most of his movies dig into the feelings of viewers.
Well now he us Paul Atreides, Denis Villeneuve and THE best actor of his generation so far, Bravo Timotgée, you have taking over the all World
Timothee has potential to become as huge as Johnny or Leo.
Sorry for using "whom" instead of "who" I think my accent got in the way of me there! lmao. "who" is grammatically correct. Sorry if this is annoying to anyone.
Whom gives. Shit? Lol no apologies needed tku for This! 👏
@@shellissanctuary7522 exactly!! I like that, whom gives a shit!! Lol
Omg don’t ever apologize for something as trivial as this again lol
There will be Wes Anderson movie this year with him.
Directors name is pronounced dennee villnuv(s is silent)
good review of his career. i think he's going to be a good character actor
Is it weird that I only know this guy from his “Mrs Lawton statistics” rap?
Je l'aime trop.
He did a great job in the king! Actually watched it 2 times
I do love the King very much 👍👍👍
its all constant hard works ...
I think at the back of his mind is this adage: “When you find the job you love, you don’t have to work for life.”
he lived in the Bronx; that pretty boy has balls granted and concurs isn’t as rough as it used to be but he didn't know that.
He's a new yorker, we're not afraid of ANY area in NYC. I've lived in the Bronx and have seen rough parts of the city my entire life, the most I ever felt threatened was in East New York but that's it. We've seen it all. Been there, done that. Haha.
@@LanceTheEditorSame here. If you’re in NYC you have to be ALWAYS aware of your surrounding, doesn’t matter if it’s 5th, Mad Avs, “high end” areas, people you meet - nicely dressed or smelly, tattered ones, the smells, the sounds, the brassy, suspicious yet helpful, kind, what you see is what get attitudes. You developed that easily-get-attuned to behavior. All that helps Timothée become how he is as an actor.
he was amazing in Call Me by Your Name...he deserves every success and he is like a young Leo...but better...i see him just honing his natural talent and getting better and better
Song in the back?
His name is pronounced Tim-Oh-Tay the last name is pronounced Sha-Luh-May. but overall I like the video :)
Jawline 💓💓💓
Beside that He has a great Body ,voiceand face expressions skills to Express the feelings of His Charakter
Add subtitles please.
His name sounds foreign enough for Americans to find him interesting, but it's also just easy enough for people unfamiliar with him to call him Tim
Whata hell, interstellar is one of my 20 fav movies watched over 30 times and i never notest there was a son in dat movie played by this kid, my brain must have skip a part.
Watch it again and this time “look” for him and his acting & be impressed.
