"Well you can't do that if it's not true".
Literally every "based on a real story" movie takes so many liberties, it might as well be fiction anyway.
So the phrase a true story is a double entendre that is both a lie and a truth at the same time! Mind blown!
@@suicidedealer based
Well if they were shooting a documentary then yeah they would be concerned with getting the story100% accurate but being that's it a movie they take liberties with the story to make it entertaining
@@suicidedealer nice. I get it.
@@ezio_Winchester your point?
"So this is based on a true story?"
"Yeah, it's a real story. I can show the first draft of the script if you want."
When my wife watched this with me for the first time she asked me if it was really a true story. I told her it was really a story.
Lmao
Why did I read that with a Fargo accent?
Nyehehe 😈
@@markwildt5728Yah, itsa real stohry doncha know?
One of the all time insane movies. Up there with “No Country for Old Men”.
Just got that 1
Oh ya betcha ya
The TV show is excellent, too
I'm not even sure which of the first 3 seasons are my favorite, because they're all beyond good.
Maybe s1 just because it has Billy Bob Thornton
@@jonslg240sorry to Say this, but the Chris Rock's Season is my least favorite
@tampico63 Same for me with 4 .... I'm loving 5 so far though.
My Dad showed me this movie when I was 12. Thanks, Dad.
About the time I watched it, luckily my Mom didn’t care and thought it was boring.
You’re lucky. My parents brought me to see the movie Sleepers when I was an 11-year-old boy.
my mum also introduced me to it😂 im still so greatful
Checked out this movie one day on a whim, not knowing a damn thing. And holy fucking shit was it bat shit insane
If u Like the movie u should try the show. It's excellent.
@@shannonkey9926 noted, thank you
You betcha
@@VAPIDISM oh yeah? ..
@@stradleybidley8893the first 3 series are good, the 1st is perfection, but after 3 the show begins it's decline into being boring
One of the greatest movies ever. The Cohen's are amazing film makers and story tellers and Francis? Francis was astonishing.
Her character is so annoying though.
The woodchipper murder happened in my hometown, Newtown Connecticut. Was the thing we were most known for, until the Sandy Hook school shooting happened. RIP
Unlucky
I lived in Newtown as well. I was grateful that when the Sandy Hook shooting happened, that the news or some nut like Alex Jones didn't makes this connection or mention it. There was also a weird case with a woman who worked at Curtis Packaging on Rt. 34.
Damn. Tf is in your water
@@brimerwelpippy4972 It does make you wonder. I was only there for the last few years of HS, so I figure (hope) I'm safe lol. It's actually a nice town but yeah, it's had some odd times.
@@seaninness334 give it another few years before you feel too comfortable 🤣
What's the population? I find that smaller and more reserved towns are always more fucked. I guess cuz they're without the resources they need and drugs are an easy boredom killer
The last bit with the girls takes me out everytime 😂 "oh yeah you betcha".
Also for my understanding this story is not true but it's kinda true?
Fake story with real elements pulled from unrelated incidents
Certain events in the plot are somewhat inspired by things that happened in real life, but that’s the same for almost every film in existence. The reason the film says “this is a true story” is to tel you that everything that happens in that story happens for a reason. The show “Fargo” continues that trend and expands on it.
It’s a double play of words, it’s based off a true story, that doesn’t mean it’s based off actually events, stories don’t have to have happened, little red riding hood is just a story, just as as Fargo is a story that was told and made into a movie, maybe not a well known story but a story nonetheless.
The other thing it is doing is stating that everything in the movie happened in the “Fargo Universe” it’s saying it’s all true to the story.
You mean the funny looking guy? Ya
It would be rather difficult to make a movie or tell a story that "occurred in our universe" without it having elements from a million different cases or other stories. Kind of frustrating, really. Probably why fantasy is so big these days. Although fantasy stories aren't any better! lol
“It is a true story… but it might not have happened” bruh am I missing something??
Like a line in another of their movies “it’s true that it is a story”
No it's not true.
Kind of the same way the office isn't a reality show...
They just made a movie and made show as if they were true.
It is a true story... just not a one that happened in real life, a true story made for a movie.
It's not so far from many real murder cases.
It’s inspired by real stories they’ve heard.
I have seen Fargo well over 100 times. It will forever and ever remain my absolute favorite movie. 💯
You betcha. Yah.
Oh yah! You betcha!
I remember back in the day before everybody had the internet in their pockets. I got into an argument with someone about Fargo being based on a true story. Had to go into the special features on the dvd to find the clip where they said it wasn’t real
I’ve watched Fargo thousand times and every time I watch it again it’s like watching it for the first time
You’re darn tootin
Perfect winter day movie. WELL..Perfect anytime I guess.
maybe you have alzheimer's
Every crazier TRUE story after the film came out, a Japanese lady thought the movie was based off true events and traveled all the way to Minnesota to try to find the briefcase filled with money that Steve Buscemi buried next to the fence. She went out there and was looking all around and ended up dying from exposure and hypothermia. It’s a legit true story too, you can look it up it was in the news and everything!
🤔
Love Fargo. The whole time watching, my wife and I kept saying “this is crazy! And it really happened?!” 😂😂 shows how the world has changed. We once believed everything we were told
And now too many can't believe the truth and it's too easy for some to believe lies.
Now I want to see it again. Frances McDermott is so good in this.
It’s actually McDormand. And yes, she was outstanding in this movie as were all of the actors.
The irony of Macy saying “you can’t say that because it’s not true”.
What's the reference?
@@wireboar7321 I think it's a reference to his wife Felcity Huffman falsifying her daughter's SAT scores.
@@standepain ahh thx
@@standepain And she was punished for that.
@@wireboar7321It's in this video clip he says it.
Texas chainsaw massacre said it was based on a true story too but I think that was to make it more scary
It’s based on the serial killer Ed Gein
Yeah a over the top film lol Ed gein but he wasn't a 6.6 giant with problems just loved his textures a little too much hahah
The story has the confidence of something that can only be true, so it was for the audience as much as it was for the writers who needed that confidence.
One of the best movies AND mini series EVER!
I love this film…
Timeless classic.
I thought it was an amalgemation of several stories? There was a woman whose body was put in a woodchipper. The killer was charged without there being a body because they found fragments of the victim's skull and you can't have skull fragments without a death
He chipped her into a river tbh that's pretty ingenious what doesn't get washed away would be eaten by marine scavengers
Same with the cult classic film Wolf Creek its lots of true stories combined with some made up stuff as well
@Dave Meads I remember hearing about a guy that parked on a bridge with his woodchipper at 3am and shredded a body. The only reason he got caught was because a random car drove by and called the police, he was gone by the time they got there but they still tracked him down. Was that the story?
@@Lotek117 almost certain that's the one
@@Lotek117 Yeah was covered in the first episode of forensic files.
The fact Steve Buscemi didn't win any award for his acting in this film is criminal
@FragranceBomb Scents who pissed in your cheerios?
@FragranceBomb Scents eh im more of a chex kind of guy
@FragranceBomb Scents the plastics consumed in modern diets will kill you before the weed killer will my man and there is no avoiding it lol
@FragranceBomb Scents local farms has plastics, rainwater even has microplastics in it so like i said not much you can do to avoid it
"You're saying something that's not true." "Welcome to Hollywood!"
I watched movie on acid. I couldn't get over her and those girls in the bar scene! That was so funny
This movie would freak me out if I was high 😂
My professor in college actually worked on the wood chipper murder case. He taught wood science, and he literally had to find matching pieces between the crime scene and a truck that the murderer had rented.
Under a microscope, he found matching pairs of wood chips who's groove marks lined up with the ridges of the blades in the wood chipper, like matching fingerprints. If you can imagine trying to find matching needles between 2 haystacks made out of chips, that's how laborious it was.
It was this kind of evidence that allowed them to convict even though there was no body.
Wow, that's impressive!
Is your comment based on a true story?
@RailSuleymanov forensic files did an episode on this case. Don't remember the title but it took place in Connecticut
@@RailSuleymanov His name is Dr. Bruce Hoadley, you can look him up.
If you want to look up the actual murder, the victim's name was Helle Craft, happened in 1986. Pretty gruesome. The murderer was sentenced for 50 years, but only served 30. He was released in 2020.
“No Jean no money!”
“Open the Fucking gate!!!!”
Drop that fucking money!
Damn. Putting "based on a true story" on a (plausible) work of fiction is a great bit.
It worked well for them at the time.
Until the internet exposed it not that long later.
@@songsthatarecatchyMovie came out in 1995.
@@tenebrae23 yeah I know I remember. And by 97 we had internet in my house.
Not that long later. The world wide web was invented in 91' so what's your point?
It was perfect the for the last twist of the movie
@@songsthatarecatchy that people werent looking up "was the movie Fargo based on a true story?"
Now I have to watch it again.
“Which Coen brother are Josh Brolin and William H Macy doing an impression of?”
“Try the second one.”
for sure ethan
I have to admit, I was naive enough to believe it. Every time I've seen a film that starts out with "based on a true story," I just automatically bought it . D*** ,now I gotta go back and reevaluate every story in my life that I believe was a true story. LMAO
You should look up the wood chipper story. It IS real. I believe they only found pieces of the guys wife's gold capped teeth and a ring, or ear ring or something on a river bank below a bridge.
@Michael Thompson holy crap, lol. Thanks, I'll check it out.
@@saturnosiris1221 you're welcome. The actual story is, well for the lack of a better word....intense. If I remember right the husband was mostly convicted because he used his credit card to rent the wood chipper.
might be based on a true event/story, then Hollywood producers add poetic license to elevate the wow factor.
Some people never figure that out. Better late than never. Guy was hell bent Texas chainsaw massacre was true, It’s not.
Ed Gein. No Texas, no BBQ, No chainsaw, no crazy family.
Thanks CZcams for the reminder of how great this movie is. I’m going to watch it again right now.
With all due respect to "No Country for Old Men", "Fargo" is the Coen Brothers' masterpiece (and that's saying something, given how many odd and wonderful films they have made). Every aspect of the movie, from characters to dialogue to setting to music, is used expertly and with perfect precision to take the viewer on a journey that is as impossible not to enjoy as it is impossible to ever forget.
Why post that comment here? We are talking about Fargo.
@@Cheepchipsable I was commenting about FARGO. I was explaining how it is, in my opinion, the Coen brothers' best film 🤔
"Oh, you betcha. ya." That accent never gets old.
"Yah."
it gets old pretty fast in person
This film was Joel and Ethan Coen's finest work and it continues to two more episodes. They are awesome.
I always thought it meant “true story” in the sense of “this is a story, truly.”
It’s a play on words and it doesn’t mean the events of the film happened in real life, it means the events of the film speak to the soul.
You're over thinking it.
@@bootlemonster what a useless statement.
@@tigertamer8256 yeah, but keep trying. One day you'll do better.
@@bootlemonster do better than what? You ok mate? Girlfriend leave, lost your job?
@@tigertamer8256 😆
Keep trying, you'll get there eventually.
So they saw a bunch if crazy stories that ended up in the news and then wrote a story connecting someone those murders together... huh neat
Being from Minnesota there is nothing worse then having someone from outta state start talking like “yea you betcha” to you after the have seen this movie lol . I’ve lived here my hole life and have never met anyone who talks like that with that accent , it also seems to destroy their lives when you tell them Fargo isn’t even in Minnesota , it’s in North Dakota
Do they talk like that there?
@@mydogdeli lol nope. think of this accent as "Red Neck Canadian"
As a filmmaker it's nice to know how much of the "truth" I can slip in there. This is gold.
I've honestly never seen it. I've heard about it so much. I probably should sometime 🇦🇺
I love that the brothers did that. I only found out about 15 years after the movie's release. And I love it that they have continued it for every episode and season of the TV version.
When he says “we were making a documentary “ and the other guy can’t help but hold back a smirk. 😂
Greatest movie of all time in my opinion
The Coen brothers wrote a great story in “Fargo”. This is true, hence it’s a true story. 😆
Masterpiece
"This is a true story that I made up"
A great movie with fantastic actors! A must watch for me "Annually".
The most offensive portrayal of the Upper Midwestern People ever filmed. I didn't even know you *could* make an offensive portrayal but gosh darn it they made it happen.
😂
the screenplay is one of my top ten favorite reads.
Everything pops out of the page real Crisp and hot!
Fargo. The only movie I could watch over and over just hear the Minnesota accent. I love listening to the accents. Besides the storyline and acting being some of the best!!
Love the KOEN BROS. Fell in love with ALL Their movies 👍
Holy shit, that is Francis McDormand's real world look? I would never have recognized her!
Tol ya soo,,,
Yahh, doncha no, sall made up..
If ya boorn in Minnesnowta, dis iz reely normal.
It truly is a story.
One of my favorite movies of all time.
Those Minnesoota accents are accurate. ;)
Living in Mr. Macy's home with his very accomplished wife, reminds me of how it must have been to live in the home of the "Barrymore's". Thank you both for all the years of viewing pleasure.
I remember being a kid walking in on my mom watching this on VHS, rented from our local video store. I specifically remember the name “Fargo” and being a kid, thinking it looked like she was watching some boring movie. Years later as an adult, I finally sit and give my full attention to this absolute masterpiece, and always think back to that day when I brushed it off. Now, this is one of those movies that I have to stop and watch, no matter what part its on, when flipping through channels.
I think I was 14 when I first saw this movie. My grandfather rented it for me over my Christmas vacation and I watched it every day for a week or so. Looking back, that was a young age to engage with it but damned if it wasn't hilarious and compelling even then.
One of my all-time favorite movies.
When a movie says "based on a true story" what that means is they've taken bits and pieces of true events from multiple stories and created their own version of them. A great example would be Wolf Creek. Its based on Peter Falconio and Ivan Millate. 2 totally different cases blended into one.
Still one of my favorite movies to watch on a rainy day
Great movie. Highly recommend
William H. Macy has such a calming dad voice.
Fargo has been one of the best movies that I have watched. It’s a real work of art. I’m sure QT would have loved to make such a movie
One of the best films ever made!
Fargo really captures the hopelessness and boredom of living in the midwest.
The first time watching it is like an amazing creepy suspense thriller. Every time after it you see it as probably the best dark comedy film ever made
Closest thing to a perfect movie there is.
completely agree
🤣🤣🤣
You’re forgetting about “Ant-Man and The Wasp”
@A Really Swell Guy you have to be like 13 or something if you really think that
@@ebvren 😂 it was the first movie I thought of for some reason
Watched this movie randomly as a kid and fucking loved it
As a Minnesotan, I remember the story that it was loosely based off. A man did get caught because he rented a wood chipper in a snowstorm and he thought he would be in the clear come spring. That much is true.
Watched this movie when I was a young kid with my dad. The woodchipper scene effed me up pretty good.
That's why they state "Based on true events" nowadays. So they can tell there were multiple events similar to the story.
One of my favorite movies of all time
I love the last clip. Great choice for this short!
For some reason I was thinking of a different movie when I saw the title of this short
The wood chipper story happened 10mins from me in the 80s
The true case took place in CT in 1986. A wood chipper was used but the circumstances are completely different. Helle Crafts was the victim if you are curious. Richard Crafts was released from prison in 2020. I actually met the private investigator who got the investigation going.
I can totally imagine an obscure maverick student film director coming up with this concept and it going one of two ways: 1. they get totally shut down by narrow-minded Conservative teachers and they don’t really amount to anything; or 2. they are lorded and praised for their creativity and storytelling ingenuity and go on to do great things like establish an oeuvre that changes the film industry forever.
Timing and proximity is everything.
And being able to persevere when you believe in something or are passionate. Sometimes getting back up, licking wounds, can be all that's needed.
I looked at this movie at the video store, for awhile. Then one day I rented it. I was an outstanding movie.
Such a great actors & a crazy movie 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪👍😊
One of the best movies of all time.
My favourite all time movie … with no country for old men a close second … the best directors EVER
that bit at the end from their charlie rose interview, wow
"It is a true story, it just might not have happened." Couldn't sound more like a politician if he wanted to
Based on a true story vs. Inspired by true events.
Tom Hanks is completely unhinged here
Lol as far as Fargo goes the 'Yaaa.. Yaaa.. Yaaa..' alone always sumed up pretty much everything there was to know.
I never realized how hard they trolled everyone! Wish my kid self could have appreciated it at the time.
Fargo season 1 is just a masterclass 👌
Season 2 is great too
So is the show based on this movie? Never seen either but thinking of watching the show🤔
@@Near2L yeah it is based after the movie, the time line is quite weird but very enjoyable 😉
My dad's family is from Minnesota and Northern Iowa. I was watching this in San Francisco where I lived for years. My CA bred partner was "C'mon nobody actually talks like that, do they?" "You betcha."
I fell for this during season 1 of Fargo. It's a great tactic.
One of the best films I’ve ever seen.
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah yeah is that useful to ya?"
"Oh you betcha yeah."
One of the best movies I've ever seen.
I love this movie. That wood chipper scene comes out of nowhere lol, but it's probably why it sticks in my mind the most
Love that movie and the show
Cohen brothers. Perhaps the best story tellers of our generation.
Whether the story is true or not one thing is for sure...You're really gonna wanna go with the TruCoat.
One of the best films of the 90s with an iconic character, Jerry Lendegard.
One of my favorite movies
