Woa......

Profound.
what about steven??? i tell u what he is.......chocolate
Hahaha with bad teeth too! Why didn’t I see that.
The scene that has stuck with me for a decade is when Django takes revenge on the family that killed Dartagnian. When he bursts into the house, he could have said any badass phrase, or something about himself, or anything to make himself look cool.
Instead he shouted the name of the slave he’d watched them kill. Most of the audience probably didn’t even remember that character’s name at that point, but Django had not forgotten.
I think he was also trying to wash off his own guilt, after all, he was the one who denied Schultz the possibility to safe D'Artagnan, just so he wouldn't endanger the plan to safe his wife.
It was a real good beat.
@@DoloresLehmann how could Schultz have saved D’artangian? They’d just gotten there.
@asmodiusjones9563 Schultz was going to buy him but Django stopped him because it would blow their cover.

@@godzillazfriction sure is..
Parallelism is a thing which can help you make your point clearly.
Sadly, the right wing would call this movie woke now too in the online and cable news media culture wars. This is why I don't go to the movies anymore. Everything is now a woke or anti woke culture wars piece of art/propaganda in winning elections in our country now.
Hellen Keller being pro Eugenics is a twist I didnt expect.
Never underestimate the power of self hatred. She was consistent though, refusing to have any children of her own. Many people believed you could fight for the better treatment of disabled people while also denying them the right to have children, many still do. One of the great tradagies of the eugenics movement is how it actually stagnated science, hard to research hard questions when you to busy defending the subjects of your research from bigots who would rather they not exist at all, similar fights are going on in lgtbq+ communities even today, things that might be interesting or even helpful to know but dare you ask for fear the research will be misused or misinterpreted .....
Not sure if lgtbq needs more research. It really not that difficult.
She prolly didn't want anyone else to be Helen keller
Hellen was a political activist with many nuanced and extreme political views and beliefs. it is however not something we know for certain, as there are some who believe it was her caretaker who held these positions and who just used Hellen and her fame as a mouthpiece of her ideas.
@@Iamlegend1987Yes and no. Yes we know what it is and how it shows but the whys are iffy. We know that some genetics and biochemical factors are the background on queerness but it isn’t the whole picture. We don’t think there is a “gay gene” but factors could be the cause of it. A mother could have 3 boys and 1 of them could be gay and it would be interesting to know why. The problem is that approaching it is iffy because it could be interpreted as you trying to find out to delete it or prevent it.
16:50 “Rich people get Ozempic. Poor people get body positivity” 😢
-Eric Cartman
Body positivity isn’t about ignoring possible health implications of obesity. It’s about dismantling fatphobia that leads to harm in all facets of life. Medical doctors often don’t give fat people adequate care and blame EVRY ailment on weight. They often dont bother to look any deeper leading mis/late diagnosis.
"Body positivity isn’t about ignoring possible health implications of obesity."
...It very often is though.
@nyanuwu4209 yea 99 percent of the time, the body positivity movement is pathetic.

I think Jared is a pretty cool guy, eh makes wisecracks and doesn't afraid of anything
...and watching movies, which he seems to do a lot, too. I want to be like him and make a living doing cool things, too!
Only one of those things is cool
@@pyropulseIXXI the pizza, right?
The story is timeless. Dr Schultz tells the story about a knight who must slay the dragon and save the princess...and that happens..And most of all I love movies where the main badguy is presented as late as possible..but has all the room/space to shine..(Kill Bill also) ..

I noticed the way he dismissed the offering of the white cake as he "Doesn't go in for sweets" as the reason he still has good teeth while Calvins are rotting.
#cakewalk
It's has a different meaning now but back then, cake was given to slaves for going above and beyond to please the master.
Living in the deep south myself, i loved the fact that the movie showed a french influence to the south. There is so much french and spanish influence in the coastal south that the rest of the country over looks, and Quentin Tarantino did a great shout out to it.
Candy is shit in a silk stocking. It still stinks.
Leonardo DiCaprio suggested the phrenology scene to Quentin, who added it to the script.
And Leo actually cut his hand sawing and breaking the skull apart, but was so in the moment he didn't stop. That's his blood right there.
@@NobodyC13no I believe not. Rather, They paused to clean and tend to the wound. They talked about adding it to the scene, got some extra movie blood, and then they talked to Kerry Washington about wiping her face with fake blood. But yes, the idea of all that came from the incident of cutting his hand during the performance.
@@TickleHellmohe smashed a glass with his hand and smeared his real blood on her
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It's absolutely crazy to me that some people called Tarantino a racist over the use of the N word in Django Unchained. It's one of the most anti-racism movies ever made
A movie about slavery that ends with a slave becoming a badass. Truly a genius achievement
You have obviously no idea what you’re talking about. The “most anti racist movie ever made”?? 😂😂😂😂😂lmmfao
Its not anti racist. It's just black revenge fantasy.
@@greatsol2444 "the most anti-racist" was definitely a bit too much. Its just a well written movie. We are too obsessed with media being "the best" and "the greatest". Being a good movie is good enough.
People tend to have a huge issue with the word. On the other side you have those upset they can't use it. They usually also complain that they can't say Christmas. Both are equally ridiculous. The Iraqis became sand n-s. And now the Palestinians. That's the very problem with the word. It's used to denote something beneath contempt. The whole white people should be allowed to use the word is a bad faith argument. Mel Brooks was once told you can't make a movie like Blazing Saddles today. He replied that you couldn't make a movie like that back when he made it either. The persecution and victim complex run deep in some people.
It's a retelling of the tale of Brunhilda. Jackson is the dragon
As an exYugo, Europeans really got the racism on lock. The best way I can describe it is like when you walk into a paint shop and there are 300 shades of white but each shade thinks the other shade isn’t white
Because in Europe it is _all_ about culture. I mean, the were talking „Gaulish“ (French) vs „Germanic“ (German) vs „Anglo-Saxon“ (English) as races.
@@LarthV You still get that in the US. It's just that the American style of racism is to fit as many groups as you can sway into the category of "White" when it serves a purpose, and then slowly tighten the circle as the targeted groups get oppressed and then create new targets of the people who get pushed out. At one point Irish weren't considered White, until it was beneficial to pit the poor Irish against newly freed slaves. Conversely, there were times where North African Muslim people were considered White. Jewish people have basically been slapped back and forth over the "Are they White?" line for generations.
More often than not, American racism is about wealth control and pitting the poor "White" people against other poor people of darker tones. That's arguably similar to racism in most of the world, but places like Europe also tend to have hundreds-thousands of years of interactions that might have led to animosity, not just 250 years or so of American history
The other day, I saw this Ghanian woman talking about her Lithuanian husband online (nothing bad). There were a whole bunch of comments from Lithuanians saying that man ruined his bloodline by marrying that woman
I paid no mind to it because I’ve actually done some research on some European cultures. I knew responses she’d get
Meanwhile, so many people were shocked people were saying that. They were even more shocked because it was Europeans saying it
@@blackblack1167 That is sad, but not unexpected. Though to be fair, I would also expect the same if that woman was of another European background (in a Lithuanians case, Russian in particular), and from people in Ghana and any other place in the "old world" in reversed roles. That kind of thing is, if not mainstream, so at least pretty common in all old world cultures, I assume - I could easily see a (say) group of Polish, Moroccan, Tutsi, Tamils, Iranians or whatever make the same supremacist comment w.r.t. their culture. Things are still quite "tribal supremacist" here...
@@blackblack1167there was a lot of outrage couple of months ago when an Albanian woman married a Pakistani man. Also the "ruined your bloodline" argument
Leo deserved an Oscar for his role as Calvin Candy.
The he would win best supporting actor over Christoph Waltz. Dr. Schultz had some of the best dialogue ever. Especially that opening scene. And the marshall/sherrif scene.
Django is also one of the earliest depictions of a Black cowboy/ranger type in the 21st century, which has been erased by history, and only just started making appearances d in the last few years with Watchmen 2019 and the Bass Reeves show.
The bullet piercing a carnation is also an allusion to the 1968 spaghetti western, The Mercenary.
Tarantino often does this... Takes scenes from other films and recontextualises them to imbue them with meaning.
In one sense, the whole of Django unchained is like this, he took the classic Django movies and recontextualises them to be about slavery.
And Brittle's blood splattering on cotton was a reversal of "Strange Fruit" and its "blood on the leaves."
I'm just here to say that I'm so glad that Jared still makes videos. Videos that are still as insightful as during his time in Wisecrack, and often more so.
okay, so he did leave Wisecrack? Did he mention why he left?
It's been 12 years? Damn I'm old
i think the point of every tarantino movie is to give him the excuse to say the "n" word.
I can only think of 2 Tarantino movies where he says it. The other being pulp fiction.
I love Django Unchained and I’ve seen it a dozen or more times and I’m fascinated by it’s not only entertaining but full of nuances. I particularly love how Tarantino can take beloved actors like Jackson and Waltz and have them play both heroes and villains in his films.
I just found Jared again after a few years and it's great to see you doing videos again! SUBSCRIBED!
Same here. I need to watch the video of why he left wisecrack because apparently his content was the only real reason I was watching it.
Me too. Chuffed.
I wouldn't say that religion won the debate over eugenics as much as Hitler simply showed where eugenics would logically take a society. Suddenly it wasn't so popular to push, and the urban elites and their ilk in academia and politics decided it best to sweep it under the rug. Sort of. It's still around in various forms.
Hitler was coming for most of the world. America as a big dog couldn’t allow that. It’s always over resources most cases especially if it’s large scale.
Excellent point
What Hitler did wasn't eugenics simply because DNA was discovered only in 1950s
Leo and Samuel give some of their best performances? I feel like Jaime, Kerry & Christoph do as well. I don’t think there is really a single actor in this movie that wasn’t stellar
15:05 To be fair the Catholic church has changed a lot. They used to have some programs that legitimately helped the poor. The Catholics of that era would not recognize what their Church has become today.
Jared dude I love your content.
I feel you always manage to keep a red line though your videos that makes them so coherent. No one else on CZcams manages to convey complex ideas this way.
Keep up the good work my man.
One thing I wish got a bit more discussion is the concept of Dr. Schultz as the Failed Ally. So many people valorize his actions without realizing just how much he further endangered, let down, and actively profited off of Django. Freeing slaves was a moral bonus to him, but just that - a bonus. And when the choice came down to his pride or /the lives of the people involved/, he picked pride.
And so many "allies" of so many movements are exactly like this. They're romantically engaged with Doing the Good Thing so long as it's presented to them romantically, but when it comes time to make hard choices or face criticism, they fold, falter, or actively make a mess on other people's behalf. Because it's not about liberation for them - it's about /ego/. And if they can also make stacks on it? Believe that they will, and actual minorities will be lucky to ever see a dime of it. (Hi, Elvis!)
Having this discussion requires seeing the film of Django for what it is.
It's not an empowerment film. It's not a revenge film.
It's not even a movie about Django.
It's a move about Schultz and how it takes "whìte good" to conquer "whìte evīl."
He's the main character. That's why Django's story only begins when he is freed by him and taught how to do everything he then goes on to do.
The story isn't Inglorious Basterds, but with sIavery, it's a whìte savior complex story about a "good" German who steals someone's sIave that he needs, uses that sIàve as his own, and then repays him by teaching him skills and failing to rescue his wife and endangering the plot to save her because of supposed principles.
Schultz is meant to be the white audience. His imperfect allyship is exactly the level of care the viewer is meant to have about Aměrican SIăvery.
Surface level, while feeling their own participation of and reaping of the benefits from the institution, is fine so long as they openly declare they think it's icky.
@@leonfrancis3418 These are the same people shouting "My Khaleesi!", so I'm not shocked. Day 1 trash and they were surprised when leopards ate white faces.
Sadly I've seen this example so many times in the construction world. Main reason I don't trust ppl on the job no matter how nice they come off being
“We tried to tell y’all.” ~ ancient African proverb
You cut perfectly at the moment Shultz *ticks at Django's hat on the table.
Alexander Dumas was a very wealthy French noble who had a mother who was a slave
To his father, his sons noble past mattered more than his skin color
Haitians looked upon Dumas’s social class in the same fashion as they looked in rich white slavers
Edit: I mixed up General Alexandre Dumas (born in France) with Haitian General Thomas-Alexandre Dumas
We know that social division is at the heart of racism, but Candy believed noble traits were physiological, so Dumas is a perfect example for Schulz to use
@@jacobdane wasn’t arguing that
I was attempting to give a little historical context on Dumas given his highly unusual background
First of all, his grandmother was a slave, not his mother. The man was the biggest fraud in French litterature. All his life he exploited unknown authors, stole their manuscript then publish them in his name. He was always broke, left all the women he went with debts, he was a libertine with no responsability. He died in misery.
Also he lived in la Reunion. Isle of la reunion is certainly not Haiti. Dude. You're trying to get historical context or are you straight up inventing stuffs??? Dear god!!
@@MidnightatMidian you got me
I mixed up Alexandre Dumas with the Haitian General Thomas-Alexandre Dumas
I’ll edit
Highly cultured reactionary villains have been a cliche for a long time. "I am zer nazi general who listens to classical music on zer gramophone viz my eyes closed und says, 'You see, captain, ve are not all barbarians. '"
Any thoughts on the casting of Christoph Waltz as Dr. Schultz in Jango?
I always wondered if Tarantino had a deeper motive for casting him as the ‘good’ German after having him play a very very evil German.

Just stumbled upon your channel today. LOVE IT!!!
Great review. A lot of little details that I didn't catch before.
A movie that fully shows the horrors of slavery while making black people feel like bad asses on the back of it. Incredible achievement
i just gotta love the superficial, polarization regarding the labeling of 'black ppl' as viewing 'Black ppl' as separate entities & holding your labelling to a pedestal for what the movie achieves at...
@@godzillazfriction you have similar discourse around Schindler’s list. Is that polarising?
And how would you know how black people feel?
@@Thedarkknight2244 keep informally distorting... you'll get there.
@@godzillazfriction I don’t think you realise Quentin has done this multiple times. Inglorious B is the obvious example. Kill Bill has Quentin quoted as saying: I want young girls to see this and feel like they want to kick ass and not let anyone keep them down. Much to the dismay of the critic interviewing him for the perception of promoting violence among young children. To some extent, Jackie Brown speaks to Black people also. Specifically in the casting of Pam Grier who was massive in the black cinema scene, an entire film industry made for black people. So yes, different group do think and feel different things when watching these movies. As, believe it or not, every human being is different
This is the greatest movie ever made. And let's not forget it's a love story.
JARED! Glad you got your own channel now! This was phenomenal. Thank you!
The unfortunately now dead channel MrBtongue made a video much like this one 9 years ago called Django Uncomplained.
You all should check it out if you liked this video, he touches on a few additional subjects as well.
An amazing video! I was going to comment about it, it's interesting to hear someone analyze Tarantino's language (which he obviously fixated upon) more in-depth.
Well now I have to find this channel and check out some of their videos.
Clearance Thomas was diabolical in Django Unchained
I like how he featured the stratification among black slaves as well. Black slavers, house servants, field workers, and free men. Broomhilda was given a German name and taught German so she could be a companion. We see slaves given leisure time and we see slaves beaten and branded. Some slaves were close friends to the family. Others were just meat. Deep details for a cowboy/ revenge/ action movie.
I have a theory that Steven was the grandfather of Calvin Candy
This is so great. Truly, Wisecrack lost it's soul after you left. You have a wonderful way to bring up philosophical questions that doesn't seem political, or perpetuating a side of any agenda. But you are a great example of someone pointing out interesting observations and asking thought provoking questions about our pop culture and entertainment. I would like you to know that I've watched you for years and you've inspired me to always be willing to take a closer look at my entertainment.
It's Just another Breadtube now
One of my favorite films hands down. There is so much to unpack, and You really outdid yourself, sir! Your film analysis videos are always my favorites.
Maybe I could request you doing another Tarantino? Or covering another film that depicts the dismantling of social norms?
Even if it’s a three hour video about snails, I’ll be here for it! ✌️ à bientôt!
Just joined. Really insightful stuff man
This was great and enlightened me as to why the movie felt like it was saying so much more than just the story. I love the layers of messaging in this type of art.
5:28 Also historically, the antebellum south had wide distribution of a "Negro Edition" bible, that was heavily edited to strengthen the slave owners stance in favor of indefinite slavery of the African peoples and their diaspora.
@@JubeiKibagamiFez I especially liked how the slave Bible removed the book of Exodus. In case the slaves got any ideas other than the natural desire to be free

Seconded

Same!
Man your channel on my youtube feed and I’m blown away with your intellectually honest assessment of issues. The only agenda I see in your commentary is thought-provoking truth.
We must do due diligence in our assessment of any situation. First conclusions are usually wrong conclusions and we have a tendency to let our ideology determine our facts instead of letting the facts speak for themselves. I once heard in old adage that really makes sense: “There’s three sides to every story, there’s a right and a wrong and the truth.”

Wisecrack went down hill so fast when this man left. Amazing.
No, it didn't, in my opinion.
It went different, but I have space in my heart to differences.
@@Padtedescoit did, you can keep simping but wisecrack still 💀
The concept of "the White Race" is uniquely American; here, where so many white people lost their European National Identities and replaced them with a unified concept of race (the exact mirror of how black people formed a racial identity in America after losing their African National Identities [or Tribal Identities, as the case may be]).
Biology itself proves that there’s only one human race the others died off it’s just us Homo sapiens left
“Well, hell, I can’t imagine two weeks in Boston” was not a God awful joke!
That shi was hilarious! Everyone in the theater and everyone I’ve rewatched it with found that Joke to be hilarious!
I mean I’m from NY and I’m a Yankee Fan so maybe that might play into it but still. It’s hilarious!
In texts with over a 100 years, race isn't such a specific word. In older books it seems to mean just a given group of people with a common ancestry (which might be the same or mixed). It might be applied to the entire human race, or just to a family. And it makes sense that way.
It should be noted that nearly all societies on transition from the stone age to the bronze or iron age became very heirahcical. But piror to any inter-continental travel and the presense of people who would even be remotely differentiated on phenotype these societies usded OTHER means to brand their lower classes. The most popular method was SPEACH. Elites would simply have an accent, vocabulary and sometimes even an outright seperate language which would be impenetrable to lower social classes, while lower classes would have a 'vulgar' speach which would mark them for life as members of a lower class as firmly as skin color would be used by modern racists. England is one of the few surviving examples where elite/vulgar speach patterns survived to the modern day.
Ahh some who thinks beyond the surface level.
I'm really liking this series Jared, I rewatched the Prestige after your video and totally forgot David Bowie played Tesla lolol Each year so many movies come out, it's easy to forget and not appreciate the gems, it's why video essays and apps like Letterbox are helpful, keep up the great work!
Love this video. James's insight always helps me clarify and understand the sentiments I pick up from mkvies .
Polacks and Irish where literally considered the negroes of Europe at one point. Italians where on the same level as blacks during the early immigration erra in the US. Hell during the great migration, poor southerners where described similarly as blacks. It has always been a ploy to use discrimination to keep the status quo/power/monopoly on violence.

So good to rediscover you again Jared. Great essay as always
Nope, you still don't.
Congrats, dude, tarantino is just rule of cool, it's not that deep.
Ah.. race as a social construct. A classic argument that's being trotted out again. As a biologist, I'd like to point towards our capability to pinpoint the genetic origin of an individual to specific geographically limited and genetically distinct populations. Race is a crude approximation of the concept of genetically distinct populations. It has been abused over the centuries to separate ingroup and outgroup and to justify dehumanization of the outgroup.
Malik is of course right to ask, why we choose skin color instead of height, facial features or hair structure to distinguish. I'd argue that a much simpler explanation is the combination of a) a large degree of genetic separation between groups with radically different skin color and b) the ease of detection. You can differentiate between skin color from further away and at a glance.
Racism is bad, because it dehumanizes humans - not because race isn't "real" or was invented exclusively for oppression.
Race is not real. This has been the consensus of anthropologists for almost a century at this point. You are emotionally attached to a debunked school of thought.
i love the Modernistic, indoctrinated & the prescriptive abstraction that is the concept of 'race'...
'Race' as a Modern concept that was made to indoctrinate the subset that is the Human Rooted Generalisation of the the human existence by differentiating a set of different groups of Humans based primarily on 'skin-tone' - Human Generalisation is something that is completely within 'Human Nature' - and so when something MAJOR happens throughout Human History such as WW2 in which I've elaborated, you'll get the shifted and twisted version of 'Race' as a concept compared to what it initially meant as in the 'Human Race' as in it being JUST ONE, until some Germans wanted to conquer the world by the Ideological factor of setting the 'Perfect Race' which went against Humanity in general - this was based on the anthropology aspects of pseudoscience & the subset of the generalisation & differentiation, which stemmed from the indoctrinated polarization of anthropology/phrenology & the overall pseudoscience, that came along with it to determine what's the absolute differences in the faculties of a Human that's different from the establishment of a common society, based on a group of individuals cultural/Ideological/philosophical beliefs...
also, you're not really going into the essence of what 'Race' is in its progressive meanings against a 'Human' - also, there's no such as the superficial, prescriptive abstractions such as 'Psychopath' & any personality disorder, that's made to informally label & categorise regarding the indoctrinated polarization, that's based from a higher set of perceived standards, that gets determined in its absolute form of truth to what it should & shouldn't be as; such as what a 'Human' in essence should & shouldn't be as, thus you get allegorical & paradoxical terms such as 'Dehumanize, Humanize, subhuman, inhuman' that's a subset of equating 'Humanity' or a 'Human' to an indoctrinated polarization of what a 'Human' in essence should & shouldn't be as, despite the fact that it's superficial by nature to informally label of what a 'Human' should be.
Except it literally was invented for oppression.
Fantastic analysis as always, this was a layer of the story that I completely missed (not that I needed more reasons to love this movie, but nice).
Great video Jared! keep them coming
Fun fact: The history of a war is told by the victors. Do with that information as you will.
Are you alluding to the civil war? The south had slaves. That’s enough of a reason to go to war. You can try to make it ambiguous but it’s clear as day. Also, no one ever denied the atrocities committed by either side so I’m not sure what you’re getting at.
The "Lost Cause" has been well documented at this point. The reasoning for cessation is both well known and documented at this point(and is in most of the documents from the Confederacy itself). The Civil War had multiple reasons for occurring, and might have occurred even if slavery hadn't been an issue. But the main cause of it was slavery, if for no other reason than how intrinsically it was tied to Southern economics.

Great video.great content and awesome insight into an awesome movie.ill def be watching more😊👊
Great video, man. This is a tricky subject and I think you handled it with grace. You have my subscription.
To me Jango Unchained is a teen social justice fantasy. Theres no nuance or indepth take on the dynamics of slavery. Its like a product of an inmature mind making revenge p0rn against an injustice, so the author can feel good & righteous about himself.
This take is stale. Many good movies can be described as "teen social justice fantasy". If you want an in depth take on the dynamics of slavery then read a historical book or watch a documentary. The product is Tarantino which in itself can be associated to nutty p)rn for people obsessed with cliche revenge and/or action
@@GEEZYEA777 Remember context is a thing. Look how philosophical the author of the video is trying to be about, like you very well described, a nutty revenge action film. Btw i think we both agree, the best of Tarantino comes when he is not tackling heavy themes such as the holocaust or slavery. Pulp Fiction, Jacky Brown, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, etc.
I really dont care when he tries to go intellectual, after all its going to be the same hollywood point of view most american film makers share.
@@Refreshment01the only uptake, that i have in regards to your post is your utilization of 'teen & Immaturity' - there's no such thing as 'maturity & Immaturity' there's no set in measures of the absolute determination of what to determine what 'mature & Immaturity' is within a Human being in essence, especially towards the age factor based off mentality, which further polarizes against for what to determine 'mature & immature' which just boils it down to being arbitrary; the essence of this progressive meaning is how 'maturity & Immaturity' are just a superficial, prescriptive abstraction thats based for the descriptive nature of how things are when that's self-contradictory (paradoxical) because it all amounts to informally labelling someone based on a higher set of perceived standards, that gets determined in its absolute form of truth to what it should & shouldn't be as; such as what a 'Human' in essence should & shouldn't be as; all of this is a subset to the Modernistic Values through it's progressive meaning that Humans strive (& loathe) for in the end...
I agree. The problem is we don't even get revenge.
Who offed Schultz?
Django doesn't even get that.
Honestly, this is why I like Jared. Not to compare, but Wisecrack has turned into a "woke" cesspool in content. This is fun and nuanced. Thank you for this!
"Nuanced" is the key I think.
Unless preaching to the choir, there is little to be gained making a caricature of the other side. I have to imagine they came to their conclusions at least as thoughtfully as I came to mine.
Even when I disagree, there is something to chew on here.
@@quintessenceSL Yep yep! I don't have to agree with people's conclusions. Just make me think.
Thank you for this great video about a great movie!
This is really interesting. Thanks.
Great video essay! I learned a lot.
Amazing video and analysis. Keep up the good work ❤
Bruh…you just blew my mind!!! Your analysis is spot in. I noticed the irony of Calvin too. 💯💯💯💯💯
As I watched this movie I was thinking 'this is good, it barely feels like a Tarantino film at all.'
Then it degenerateted into what we expect from him.
Nothing in the film justifies Django becoming a great gunman that could take so many people out.
Born special I guess
Dumb
Love This Movie and Watched it Several times. Never picked up on some of these concepts. Good Job. Great Video.
"He laughs way too hard at Calvin's God-awful jokes." While I agree with you that Stephen was putting on a performance, the two weeks in Boston joke is actually quite good.
very well done !!! thank you for sharing !!!
Well done! I almost want to watch it again!
Good stuff. Appreciate the insight
