I liked this movie a lot, but I can’t help but laugh every time I imagine what the doctor’s reaction must have been when he called to say that Fran was dead only to hear Marta go “that’s great news.”
HAHAHAHA YES
This is actually better explained in a deleted scene! It's another play on words - the doctor actually heard her say "that's GRAVE news" while Ransom hears "that's GREAT news" with the idea being that each person heard what they expected given the context. But because the final cut only shows the context of her lying about Fran being alive so the audience only hears the word "great" - it's supposed to be like the you/Hugh thing again. It just ended up getting cut for time, alas!
I mean, she might've sneakily hung up right after hearing the news and just said "that's great news" to herself and others in the room.
@@caggles This only works in English,though...I don't know if you could make the same play on words in other languages as well...🤔
@@Nicamon Hah, you're right, but most plays on words like that are very specific to a single language, so I don't think that's a surprising limitation.
I don’t know if you noticed this, when Harlan told Richard “you tell her or I will” regarding him cheating on Linda, Richard inadvertently told Linda.
1. When Richard went looking for the note from Harlan and saw it was blank, he took Harlan’s baseball and threw it out the window.
2. Blanc saw the baseball and pocketed it
3. When the dogs approached him, Blanc threw the baseball for them to play with
4. Next time we see the baseball, the dog has it in his mouth and is being pet by Linda
5. Linda notices the baseball as the one belonging on her dad’s desk, and goes to return it, leading her to find the note.
Had Richard not throw the baseball, Linda might not have found the note. Thus, Richard did indirectly lead Linda to learning the truth, just like Harlan wanted.
Honestly, THE CAST in this movie. I think it makes a great job at keeping it funny while trying to solve the mystery
The cast is a group of icons
The fact that Chris literally contained himself from playing with them dogs just shows you how commited he was to his role.
one of my many favorite parts of this movie has to be the end shot when you see Marta on the balcony with the mug that says
- my house
- my rules
- my coffee
signifying that now she owns it and it passed to her from Harlan. It's also just one last dig at the family and the fact that they own none of it now.
She was iconic in that moment
It still cracks me up when Marta says "That's great news" to the doctor. Imagine what was the doctor's reaction- 😭🖐️
"How did she not get nominated for some things?" My question exactly!!!
Chris Evans playing a spoiled rich dude, I love it.
Iconic
@@MoviesinDepthI bet he'll make a cameo appearance in Knvies Out 2.
@@thomasbaker2067 He's in jail. So I don't know how that's possible.
On rewatch u can see when Blanc notices the blood drop on marta's shoe when they first meet which I think is fantastic to have that detail in there even though u wouldn't notice really on 1st time viewing
WHAT
And he tells Marta something is "a foot"
I don't know if anyone else has said this but Meg is the only one in the family that actually cared about Marta from the door. She didn't hang up after Marta said she take care of her because that's all she cared about, she hung up because she wouldn't normally do that. It let Marta know that her family was trying to pressure her into getting the inheritance from her without actually telling her with words. I love Meg's character. She didn't even know her mom was stealing from her granddad, she just ended up being punished for it along with her mother.
I definitely think the phone-call scene showed the psychological pressure Meg's family put on her and that pressuring Marta wasn't Meg's own idea.
But at the same time, that's the difference between Meg and Marta. Marta is an actual good person deep down, because she's willing to do the right thing even if it means putting herself on the line. That's how you know it means something. Whereas Meg buckles as soon as she is under pressure, even telling the family about Marta's mom (which Marta wouldn't do if the roles were reversed). To me even if you're a nice person, if you can't maintain your character integrity when faced with pressure, that puts a pretty big question mark next to your "niceness".
Like, in my view, it doesn't matter how much you study social justice in college and how "progressive" your political beliefs are, if you can't stand firm to defend your friend's undocumented mother, then you've failed.
if i'm going to be honest, she reminds me of those people who claim to be against capitalism and supports people in need (like marta, she doesn't need her help but she barges in) but in the end, she's just like one of her family. she's definetely not a victim but the film is meant to depict those pretend liberate who claim to protect the unprotected to only look better than the rest of her family but deep down, she is just like them, maybe milder than them.
Love this movie, but with her being his nurse/caregiver, you'd think she'd notice that he wasn't absolutely high as a kite after giving the 'wrong dose' of morphine. But I get it was a super stressful situation. That literally my only pet peeve with this movie and a small one at that.
Thats fair
Does morphine work that fast?
@@ElisaH_DarklyiShine yup, you'll feel it pretty much as the nurse pushes it in by IV Definitely in about 1 minute at the longest. Although to be fair, seems like he gets it pretty frequently. Maybe I'm just talking out my rear. Lol.
Yeah that was the only part that didn't seem to fit. We even see what someone overdosed looks like with Fran later. Why didn't Marta at any moment go "hold on, how are you feeling? are you having any symptoms?" and check his pulse or pupils or something. Idk, maybe she realized that at the end when she decided to go back to Harlan instead of running but was too late/slow to stop him from slitting his throat.
@@fightingfaerie yeah, i don't think it's really a plothole because in that situation, you would be flat out panicking. it's not just "a super stressful situation" like op seems to think (i'm gonna go ahead and guess they've never experienced true panic or fear in their life lmao). you would have major adrenaline rushing throughout your body, and from how marta was reacting, she looked to be on the verge of a anxiety/panic attack, which i've experienced, and let me tell you; you are _NOT_ thinking rationally or reasonably at that time. all marta's brain is telling her is that he's going to die in minutes, her friend is dying, she's just killed someone, she's screwed and going to jail, career done, mom deported. she was panicking so hard she couldn't clearly remember his simple instructions. it makes perfect sense that marta didn't notice the symptoms (or lack thereof) at first.
i think what you said works, after she'd done all that he asked and was going back in to talk to him, maybe she'd calmed enough (or had enough time to obsessively watch everything play out over and over again in her head, as tends to happen) to realize that he wasn't actually showing symptoms of an overdose and was about to suggest they not go through with the plan and she perform a quick checkup. and maybe harlan even knew by that point he was fine, but wanted to end things anyway (he's actually quite old, has to receive medical care and pain killers every single day, his family sucks and it seems like marta is his only real friend, maybe he's out of ideas for books--he seemed excited by a new method of murder when marta first told him she'd made a mistake that he wanted to write down--and so maybe feels like he has no more purpose/reason to go on). so he does the deed before she can stop him, and it really, truly was a suicide in every way. it all fits in really well with the rest of the story.
also you and op should consider: nurses and caregivers are heroes and wonderfully selfless people, but they're still people at the end of the day. they make mistakes, sometimes they don't notice critical details. home nurses/caregivers especially are (in my personal experience) a little more likely to make mistakes because the environment is more relaxed, and they sometimes unintentionally become a bit complacent, especially when they've settled into a longtime routine with a patient who's had no outstanding issues ever pop up. marta's also a young nurse, probably hasn't been in too many big time emergency situations before. so even though she's had training for her first response to be questions about what he's feeling/experiencing, monitering his pulse, etc., this is (likely) her first big emergency and it's someone she considers a good friend to boot, so she's panicked, can't find the treatment (naloxone) for a situation like this, and now harlan's stopped her from calling the ambulance (which also needs to be done as soon as the mistake is made, even before/during checking the patient for symptoms, since she's the only other person in the room who can do it). she didn't stay in the room with him, which would have led her to notice he was showing no symptoms, she was out busy doing what he'd told her to--she left immediately after he instructed her because of the time limit. she only saw him again right before he unalived, so there was really no other opportunity to notice the absence of symptoms (unless--because it's possible--she was going over what had happened earlier and realized he hadn't really been showing any, hence my earlier theory that agreed with yours--maybe she was going back in to check and be sure, and was ultimately too late).
Knives out is one of my favorite movies ever! I'm so glad you enjoyed it, uts so clever. Every shot, every prop, is designed and has a purpose, its all constructed beautifully
Me too.
Agreed
Chris Evans is such a great actor! You can love him even when you’re meant to hate him
Exactly
The PMI "Hannah!!" had me rolling 🤣
HANNAH. OMG.
This is one of my favorite movies! Some of the lines like the one about the knives not knowing which is real and which is a prop. A lot of little details throughout make rewatching the movie a lot of fun. And the introduction of Ransom is great, Chris Evans commented how they got that shot was he showed them toys and then put them in his pockets, and after the scene he would take them out to give to the dogs.
That makes me love him even more
@@MoviesinDepth Agreed!
If you haven't already you should check out the deleted scenes, there is just 2, but one reveals that Walter had been side investing and owed dangerous people money, he says in the interview his medical boot is from a bicycling accident but Blanc later presses Donna with the medical report that he was shot in the leg. So Walter was desperate for money. The second scene is Blanc talking to Joni after the will reading and mentions that he bought one of her Flam products and experienced a rash, did some online digging and found out her company is practically dead and she relies on money from Harlan. These we so neat and should have been included in the movie even as just a director's cut.
If you haven’t seen Logan Lucky which also stars Daniel Craig as a southern dude (and you should by the way), you would know that he can actually pull off a very convincing southern accent. I think he made this one hilariously goofy on purpose cuz that was him having fun with his character.
Follow the baseball and it leads to Linda finding the letter. There are also other letters that look a little burned on the desk in her room when she talks about waiting for the “big reveal” to hint at the letter not being blank.
The piano key that Blanc plays during the interviews is either to prompt the detectives into having the person being interviewed get back to relevant information OR to mark when they tell the truth about something.
Blanc’s behavior throughout the whole movie shows the audience he knows from the beginning that Marta was involved. When they first meet he stares for a good second at her shoe which has the blood drop. That’s why he immediately tests to see if she can lie or not and why he’s actually keeping her close to him for the first half of the movie until he sees the dogs barking at Ransom, she was originally his main suspect!
Marta doesn’t play by anyone’s rules or standards but her own which is set up in the game of Go. Harlan complains she always beats him and she responds she isn’t really playing the game, just trying to make something nice. In the same conversation Harlan says Ransom is too much like him. With Ransom later saying “I thought I was the only one who could beat him in Go” sets up Marta beating him in his murder plot since she didn’t play by Ransom’s idea of how people act and tries to save Fran, which is what leads to Ransom getting arrested.
I watched this movie a few too many times if you can’t tell.
I saw ‘Knives Out’ in the theatre and it was such fun! It’s actually quite a beautiful ode and subversion to the Agatha Christie/Murder Mystery Genre.
Chris Evans & Jaeden Martell (the kid from It) also appear together in the miniseries "Defending Jacob". And Michael Shannon and Jaeden also appear together in "Midnight Special". But also Michael Shannon is criminally underrated in "Take Shelter". All worthy of watches.
Jamie Lee Curtis and Toni Colette really understood the assignment. They’re at the two ends of the Karen Spectrum.
James Bond acting like Sherlock Holmes while talking with a goofy Southern accent and smoking a ridiculously long cigar is the best thing ever. Just YES!
The will reader is Frank Oz who was the actor who played Yoda
Ugh. I *love* this movie
Also, my name is Hannah and that yelling at the beginning threw me all the way off.
HANNNAH
Have you ever tried “clue” which is a whodunit mystery but s a comedy.
My favorite movie!
I LOVE clue!
Written and directed by Rain Johnson who made this movie after having finished with Last Jedi starring a family who comes to visit after the death of a mystery writer
24:39 After “Suck on that, Grandma”, we have progressed to “Suck on that, Baby Boy.” 😂
Always evolving
Yay I watched this movie for the first time a few months ago and I loved it
I remember watching knives out from the theaters, since 2019.
There's a very subtle way to tell who the killer is. Apple does not let movie villains use their devices on camera. So they may be horrible people, but they're not killers.
Dear Evan Hansen also does this
I think I first saw this mentioned in an interview with the director. I almost wish I hadn’t (thankfully, I have a terrible memory) #cantunsee
that's dumb of Apple, considering a lot of villains are very popular lmao. sorry but i'd rather buy the stuff the villain has/uses than the heroes, considering most of my favorite characters in media are villains/antagonists 😂 i knew i had a good reason to never like or buy apple products
such a pathetic move on Apple's part "good guys use Apple, villains use Android. we good, other brands bad. ooga booga" lmao
I truly believe this is one of the best movies of the decade, if not the century thus far. A true masterpiece!
Yes!!! One of my favorite movies
Daniel Craig with that Southern Drawl is hilarious!
A great classic Whodunit is "And Then There Were None" (1945), based on Agatha Christie's novel. I don't know how you feel about black & white movies, but the 1945 version is considered one of the best adaptations. I've seen multiple film & tv mini-series and the 1945 version is my favorite.
For a comedy whodunit there's “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” (1988). The mix of live action and animation is perfect. Love this movie. And 'Clue' (1985) one of my favorite movies.
We’re going to have a new knives out sequel on Netflix later this year.
This was my first mystery movie and it was amazing. (also if u like when in shows where there is a lot of smoking you should watch Peaky Blinder)
Welcome to the Peaky blinders
I don’t know if anyone said it already, but Blanc seems to have pressed the piano keys when he heard someone tell a lie, it could also be a reference point for the recording, cause the voice memo would show the louder sound waves and make it easier to scroll through and find important things
Jamie Lee Curtis saying “Did you boink my father?” 😂
This movie was fun …. Saw it in the theatre
I would love to see you do a commentary on the murder on the orient express, it’s one of my favorite who done it films
👀👀
Ana de Arnas is such a brilliant performer! I’d love to have seen Penelope Cruz or Salma Hayek in that role.
I cannot wait for the sequel!
Great video!!! Can you watch the first and last episode of Gilmore Girls next please. Oh btw, the last episode of the show takes place in 2016 when they did the revival called Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.
Just got home from school, and you're watching one of my favorite movies!!!!!
♥️♥️♥️
15:34 The thing about the Report Card is so true 🔥
Rest in Power, Christopher Plummer.
This movie was SO fun... Like Clue levels of murder mystery fun, but with a sarcastic serious inflection. I absolutely loved everything about it. I've only seen it once, but I've wanted to go back and watch it again just to catch all of the little tells and clues leading to the correct answer.
It is said the most imaginative people in the world are Writers of Fiction and Detectives Speaking for the Dead.
Nice seeing Bailey in you video😂
Also, Wolverine!
I feel it is completely plausible that Mara would know about the back entrance, she clearly has grown up in a lower income family who has worked in such places. She herself probably worked in establishments such as those before. They all have back entrances like that, due to fire codes and building regulations…. The real mystery was how come it was unlocked? As they are usually locked unless propped open (don’t want non-employees coming into staff areas unknowingly)
Enjoyed the reaction!
I assume, since it was the meeting location and it's an empty store space, that it was unlocked because it would have been suspicious for them to go through the front door of an empty building. Fran must have had a key, maybe she knows the owner of the building.
If you want to watch another Toni Colette movie I recommend Muriel's Wedding. It's a comedy from the early 90s about a women who's determined to find a husband.
I nominate the recent Murder on the Orient Express remake!! I loved it and a sequel is coming out.
I love the Benoit Blanc impressions🤣
KFC in depth at your service
Toni Colette started her career with a comedy (if you could react to ‘Muriel’s Wedding’) and she EXCELS IN IT 🔥
2:06
Bailey!! I love her videos!😃
This movie is so awesome and so underrated! I am excited to see the sequel, and I can’t wait to see what the mystery is! 🔪
Me.
I love knives out!! You should also do a reactions to Murder on the Orient Express!
"what's up Hannah?" me: oh shit hello
Lmao
I LOST IT at Heaven fried chicken bisquit.
Same bro. Ever since I saw Hereditary, I cannot look at Toni Collette without thinking of it. That movie’s bound to give me nightmares.
Yes and yes
Hey I just woke up like slept early yesterday but I wasn't feeling well so I wasn't up till late like usual so I'm late here to your video.
Love that you reacted to knives out I love that movie I watched a couple of times.
Love you and your videos your reactions everything their very funny and entertaining to watch your videos bring me happyness joy and laughter.
Ransom switching the viles liquid then she switched it by accident so she technically saved him he was fine like for his age he would have died very quickly himself like he would show signs.
Ransom only new about his grandfathers nurse getting the money his will when he dies.
Honestly Meg was the most honest with Marta she didn’t have any ulterior motive until her mother and family manipulated her into gaining her trust. That was pretty much all Meg did to Marta.
Yeah but...I wouldn't call it manipulation. They just pointed out the fact that Meg wouldn't get any money for school...when her lifestyle was threatened she didn't have Marta's back like Marta would have had hers
14:31 - 14:35, a cultural reset
This is a very cool ode to ‘Clue’ because we know everyone’s colours and we’d love it if you could react to ‘Clue’ (1985)!
Ana de Armas actually got nominated for a Golden Globe but I agree, this movie deserved more recognition.
00:32 - 00:38 That's because *IT IS!!!!!* 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩And so is this one!😎😎😎😎😎
Day 3 of asking are you gonna react to Peter pan 2003 or nah??? Btw FIRST 🥇
👀
I too think The Last Jedi is a great movie. I saw it in cinema and it made me tear up. Shame JJ Abrams had to fuck up with the next movie in theaters. Also this movie is GREAT Rian Johnson is so good!
FACTS
One of my favourite movies of all time!
It was my second or third viewing of the movie that prompted me to finally make a list of my top 10 favorite movies, and I am still so gosh darn elated that a movie THIS new is on there. It isn't a super specific genre I really like, it isn't a franchise I follow closely (or ANY franchise) and nostalgia plays NO part in my adding it to the list.
It's just a spectacular movie, through and through. It's something of a marvel, really.
This is my second favorite movie behind Coraline but I love it so much it’s so amazing I watch it a lot cause I don’t have to look at the screen and so I can do he but I needed to get ready for graduation pictures so I’m late but I’m here now
I can't wait for the sequel
May I please recommend Spontaneous? It also stars Katherine Langford.
The first time I watched this, I was so caught up on how bad an idea it is to surprise-disinherit your kids that I missed a lot of cool stuff. (And I straight-up don't buy that Harlan would have disinherited his mother, despite the will containing no provision for her care.)
What camera do you use?
Canon M50 about to upgrade to the New Sony A7iv!
how do i suggest a movie for you to react to?
Ana de Armas was actually nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Comedy.
Not sure you well ever see this, but just thought.yoj should know the actor that plays thromby is none other then Christopher plummer! Mr captain von trapp himself!! ( Also plays the grandpa is national treasure) just a fact that people seem to skip over
I don’t actually think Katherine’s character, who plays Hannah in 13 reasons why was bad. I think she was the only good person because it was by circumstance-she was forced by her family to tell Marta that she ought to give the money to them. She was just a college student and didn’t ever go against her grandfather in any way.
She was also pressured into telling them about her mother’s immigration state.
You should watch murder on the Orient Express
I liked this movie, I liked all the performances, and I really liked Ana de Armas but I just couldn't stand Daniel Craig's fake accent.
Because, he has a British accent.
@@nathancruz9172 I know. Honestly I would've preferred his real British accent to whatever this was. Maybe he'll perfect it by the sequel.
Would love to see him react to Fried green tomatoes
Not going to lie but Jonie? The one with the skincare company? She was giving me Gwenyth Paltrow vibes 😂😂
LOL
Have you seen Clue?
Tim curry is the legendd
1:22 Montgomery Burns
Meg was honestly the only one I liked from that family other than Harlan. She really didn't want to hurt Marta in anyway and was the only one to show any genuine concern for her well being after Harlan died. The only reason she called Marta and said what she said was because her family forced her to and Marta knew that because she's seen how they act in person.
So she was nice as long as there was absolutely no reason not to be, and as soon as she got a little bit of pressure from her family, she was willing to threaten Martha and rat out her undocumented mother. Don‘t see much genuine concern for anything but herself there.
At first the way everything was going i was wondering if it was gonna turn out Harlans death was faked, that it just a test to see what everyone would do if he were to die and only Nana and Marta passed.
omg please please react to EUPHORIA season 2... im dying to see ur reaction sjhskjs
