#BAFTA - Zábava
I can't believe Andrew Scott was snubbed from a Bafta nom for this. He deserved it.
Why oh why hasn't there been a write-in campaign for him? It's beyond ridiculous that he isn't nominated - he should WIN. I get with the Oscars that they simply didn't see the movie but the BAFTA nominators did see it so it's beyond ridiculous!
They vote in December. He’ll be eligible next year.
@@caz5624 but Paul Mescal was nominated this year for the same movie..
I’m never forgetting the way this movie made me feel.
The problem with this is that I'll definetely need another movie made by this incredible trio: Paul, Andrew and Andrew.
EXACTLY! We need another existecial masterpiece
Watched this in a theatre in Vancouver and was absolutely entranced by the story and the performances. The audience laughed and cried and when the credits rolled, almost everyone just sat there in silence. Then, gradually, people started rising out of their seats and quietly filed out.
Afterwards, I didn’t rush off to another activity or take out my phone as I normally would have done. I just sat there in the mall in the empty food court, pondering. I was experiencing a rare (for me) almost meditative sense of calm.
Needless to say, the movie left an imprint on me. I’ve spent time every day since, thinking about it, replaying scenes in my head, contemplating how our past, our memories, our emotions, our relationships, our identity, the essence of our very being are all intertwined and what that means for our present and future selves. Truly a masterpiece of a film.
Agree. This imprinted on me too
Beautifully put, thanks. Very much my experience (I've seen the film twice in the theater).
just saw this tonight in the same theatre and definitely sat in the food court afterwards to think for a good long time
Wonderful film...need to watch again already and I only saw it tor the first time yesterday.
I watched it today in London & the same thing happened. At the end no one got up for ages. The credits rolled.. & then then lights came up... & then the cleaners came in. Everyone was silent. I was busy trying to stop myself from crying. This film is absolutely beautiful & I'm so glad that I went to see it without knowing what it was about. I urge everyone to try to see it
The fact Andrew wasn’t nominated by Bafta is simply baffling performance of the year for me.
It's beyond ridiculous that he isn't WINNING Best Actor! Glad he won BIFA, the National Society of the Film Critics, and the London Film Critics Circle awards. But his IS the best performance of 2023!
paul in this interview is something else he is so insanely pretty I can’t
The beautiful blue eyes and long dark eyelashes- curly hair and Roman nose 😍. Not to mention the talent
He’s a beauty
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤thanks❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's the lightning and the red background, they give his skin a nice warm peach tone
This movie touched my heart in 17 places. I’m stunned it didn’t get an Oscar nod.
Not blockbuster enough fir damn Hollywood!!
This film was incredible fir me; happy/sad, moving. Having lost my father in a car accident when I was only 15 I would give anything to be able to go back and talk to him and find out so much more about him . He was just turned 50 years old when he died and I’m just now a little older than he was when he died. I’d love to go back and talk to him. The scenes where he talks to his father I was bawling my eyes out and trying not to disturb the other patrons. A beautifully mesmerising film with a top cast!!
Deeply disappointed in the BAFTA voters for snubbing Andrew Scott!!!
It is beyond ridiculous - but why oh why didn't they just do a write-in campaign and vote for him anyway? Andrew IS the best actor of 2023!
I can’t stop thinking about this movie
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful movie. Heartbreaking, life-affirming, utterly entrancing. Astonishingly tender performances from all 4 actors, but particularly from Andrew and Paul. This film will remain with me for a long time. Everybody should go to see it. Anyone with a heart will find it irresistible.
Me too. Saw it last night. Don’t think i’ll forget it. Was incredible ❤
There is nothing to say about Andrew and Paul performance... I mean, it's so obvious the autenticity of It... You just have to wait and surrender to their beautiful job. But Claire Foy... This wonderful part was played absolutely right. I couldn't hold my tears any longer with her scenes, there so much truth in her words... the flaws, the unconditional love... This movie was something else.
I absolutely loved Jamie Bell in this interview.the way he talked about Andrew Scott ,himself being a dad of three children and what this great movie means to him.
And what a shame to Bafta for not nominating Andrew Scott.I can't comprehend..😢
Andrew Scott was THE BEST ACTOR OF 2023 - his snubs were unbelievable. All Of Us Strangers is my favorite movie of 2023, simply the best! Achingly beautiful and superb!
I just saw this film tonight, and its masterful. I can't shake my mood hours later, it's still nibbling away at my insides, like a hug, and, simultaneously pushing a bruise.
I'd agree with these guys in the interview, they've captured multi layered intimacy so incredibly. So often intimacy is portrayed with one emotional flavour, but in actuality, often, our bodies, heads, hearts, memory, ancestry, friendships and love, are all at interplay with each other in the same moments.
Theyve portrayed this particulalry well in the post seggs haze, the blurry melty fuzz that somehow releases clear pure simple insight and delicate sharing. This is so so rare to see on screen, and particularly between men, reductionist screen plays are so boring when its just heightened fking or emotive melting, somehow, and no surprise at all, these guys have portrayed the twinkle in an eye, the presense, the clever wit, the tender reserve, the passion, the shyness, all at once in a moment, and moment to moment.. and thats unbelievably precious.
What a way to start my year. I hope they win award after award, for this humble story which feels so normal and natural to me as a queer viewer, but which yeah is quietly radicle even for 2024
Best of luck to them all ❤ so much appreciation
yes to all of this
this was so gorgeously written, and i couldn’t agree more.
this movie genuinely left me so in awe and devastated
these people made art. this film was incredibly moving and it broke me and built me back up
Beautiful and emotionally filled movie. Andrew deserved a nomination. Hope he gets many others for his role.
This film is beautiful on SO many levels. It should go down in history as one of the extra special ones.
Just them talking about this project with such love and pride made me emotional. Andrew Scott is so lovely and supremely talented. Paul Mescal is handsome and charming, and he comes across and such a kind and sensitive person. I don't know how he identifies, but as an actor who has built his career thus far playing straight men, I admire and deeply respect his taking on this role. The comfort and vulnerability required to portray this relationship honestly is a testament to his skill as an actor and moreso his character as a human being. I haven't had the opportunity to watch it yet but I'm going to make it a priority this week.
One of the best films I've seen in a long long time. I cried and laughed and felt so moved
Andrew had the best performance of the year hands down. I wish Claire and Jamie’s performances would be getting more attention especially Jamie’s, top notch supporting work.
So true! I have no idea why the awards boards are sleeping on this film

Yes yes!! Everyone was exceptional. Jamie was just amazing!

Performance of the last 12 months by Andrew Scott for me. How could BAFTA not recognise him in this, he was incredible 👏🌟
God damn them all for making me feel these emotions. Such a profound story. Such profound creators and performers. I will never forget the impact this film had on me.
An exquisite , tender, raw, moving film. This will stay with me.
This is the best movie I have ever seen about lgbtq people, and i can assure this movie is not only about them! Just spectacular!
Just 'G' people, and also everybody.
One of the most beautiful films I have ever seen. Harkens back to an era when movies like Ordinary People were so moving and captured a real gentle maelstrom of emotion and heartbreak.
i watched this movie tonight for the first time as a 21 year old newly single mom, experiencing a new kind of loneliness myself. my son is with his dad this week and my house has been so quiet i can hardly stand it, and i found it so ironic how harry kept on pointing out how quiet things were because that’s been the hardest thing for me the past few weeks. although this movie explores all sorts of different kinds of loneliness in it, they were all explored so perfectly. this movie kind of felt like a big hug, accompanied with someone telling me it was all going to be okay. what a beautiful, and devastatingly heartbreaking film.
Got an interview with Andrew but didn’t nominate him woah
I watched it for the first time last night and I pretty much cried on and off for its duration. Like other commenters here it has been in my mind since then. The movie got me thinking about my own childhood experiences and it absolutely is a cathartic experience. Everybody should see this. Just watching this set of interviews got me stirred up all over again. A lovely movie indeed - what a shame it hasn't had more awards consideration: no Oscar noms and most surprising, a nom for Andrew Scott at Baftas
I watched this last night and sobbed throughout the entire movie. I cannot even think about it without getting emotional. This will stick with me for a while.
I haven’t even watched the movie yet and here I am bursting into tears. This movie would be a rollercoaster and I definitely will be watching
Really, this film touched my soul. A really beautiful experience.
Watched it yesterday in Munich, Germany. A wonderful film.
Just saw the film yesterday and it was outstanding. Very thought provoking and sad.
What a gift they gave us in this film
Andrew's voice is so beautiful
One of the best films I have ever seen. Can't believe that this film didn't win everything ever.
A beautifully done film in every way.
There is so much vulnerability in this film, so much love, is the most beautiful portrait of loneliness that only someone part of the community would fully understand ❤
I literally cannot WAIT until I can go see it ❤❤
It's incredible!!! :')
I just saw this film yesterday and am moved beyond words. I'll carry it with me for the rest of my days.... It's that powerful. Thank you to all involved...
I literally cannot wait to see this film. It is so sad that in this day and age so many people feel that they cannot be themselves because of their sexuality. Everyone should be allowed to be who they are, without being ashamed. And the story too, where Andrew goes back to his childhood home to see his parents from the past. Paul and Andrew are two of my favourite actors. Have to say that from the trailors, they make a great couple! Just saying! Its a shame that the Author of the book died before the film came out. Thank you for this, what looks like an amazing film and story. And thank you for the video. 🌈🥰🩷
Yes yes!! Everyone was exceptional. Jamie was just amazing!
Qual nome do filme amigo
. Its called 'All of us Strangers'
I adore this interview and I adore this film!
Watched it last night and unsure if I'll ever recover.
Same
i heard of this film some weeks ago and was watching the trailer. i was so kept by only these 2 minutes and watching only the trailer (4 to 5 times a day) makes me nearly cry ... can't wait to watch the film.❤
Excelent film, splendit interpretation of all actors, everybody
deserves all primes .
Congratulations to all of you.
Marcelo Pazzini of Brazil.
The human heart….is much like the strings of a violin. When a chord is struck…it resounds.
Congratulations for this stunning work to all and to Bafta for putting this excellent video together totally complimenting further what were the pivotal moments during creation and end result. Beautifully explained
I want to see this movie so badly now!!!! Release it worldwide please!!!
Thank you for making my soul smile
It was simply a beautiful film. The story, the actors, cinematography, music, directing... not one beat out of place. Every piece was critical in building the overall experience. If you haven't seen it, be prepared to be transported emotionally for days.
The last song, beautifully written by by Frankie Goes To Hollywood, said it all.
I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
When the chips are down I'll be around
With my undying, death-defying love for you.
[...]
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on, burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal.
I think most 9f us would love to go back in time and rectify our relationships with our parents.
what a beautiful film… i loved it😊
I hope to see this movie soon. Greetings from Chile.
Paul Mescal with that hair...and the beard...damn he's hotter than hell 🔥🔥🥵😊
*PURE AND LATENT LONELINESS!!!* - It's this gay being from the 80s, loaded with all forms of prejudice in the family, at school, etc., that permeated the time. This revisiting "his parents" was the catharsis that the character found (writing the script) to say who he became. Sad and lonely for years, without even being able to have a relationship with another man. Setback, the personification of Love appears in front of him, and wrapped in fears, traumas, and without realizing the speed of time, he gradually allows himself to be enchanted by the possibility of loving and letting himself be loved, of filling the void that the Human Being has as his greatest tragedy! But temporal cruelty, in the most vile and real way, because Death is the "game over", only glimpses the pleasure of having someone as the Central Character... The end, in the Darkness of Time, in a plane that opens up , we have maintained there in infinity, the multiplicity of finiteness, the plurality of All of us! It's to cry, yes..... 😥😥😥😥
I need to see this movie.
and then you didn't nominate Andrew for a BAFTA! Traitors!
ES UNA OBRA DE ARTE, después de años de no ver una muy buena película, por fin la encontré.
I fell in love with Adam ……..
A beautiful movie.
The kind of movie where you either surrender to the mood and weird logic of the script or you don't. The performances are so convincing that you almost don't notice the horrifying implications.
I wish Paul will tell us where can we listen to his famous "playlists" which he made for each of his movie's character 😢❤❤ 11:21
i found his spotify, he has a lot of good playlists!!! if you just look up paul mescal it’ll come up…idk which ones are specific for the characters but he has some for his friends like lionel 😂 i absolutely love his music taste
@@saras9270 really?!? thanks alot, I'll search it 😍😍 Are you sure it was his and not a fan based playlist?
It'll come out in Germany in a few weeks and I can't wait to see it
Meanwhile I'm gonna read the book
I don't think reading a book first is a good idea
Bafta interviews with fellow travelers cast pls
This extraordinary film showed the world how irrelevant and biased all of those Academy Awards prices really are. "All of us Strangers" BEST FILM ever!!!
Thanks ❤thanks❤thanks❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤
Qual nome do filme porfavor brasileiro
Todos nós, estranhos
❤❤❤
Disgrace andrew scott wasnt nominated 😢 this was the best film i have seen in a long time, i cried so much in cinema my son cried too, i bought it from amazon as i know i will keep watching this beautiful film, it annoys me so bad andrew doesnt get the recognition he deserves hes fantastic in everything, to me this film should have won every award going, there was not a film to touch it in the past year or more, magic really did happen with these four actors, bafta hang your heads in shame
Incredible. You managed to nominate everyone and everything BUT the only actually gay lead! Lmao .Its as if you only like gay stories when you know the actors playing them arent actually gay. Anything else hits too close to home and your homophobia shows.
100%. Andrew Scott, an openly gay man playing an actual gay character so authentically and the BAFTAs shun even nominating him. Doesn't add up. Systemic homophobia perhaps.
What is the name of the movie please
All of us strangers

When can I watch it in America 😭😭💔
it was in the cinemas in December
@@chimunhu9010 yea I watched it!! And the ending had me crying💔😭😭
I am a child of People

My stolen identity used here
They are sublime in the film, the finale is so powerful, but the film was too slow and too much dialogue.
Movie is so depressing. Just saw it. Really depressing.
Not every movie is happy happy or car chases or super heros. This movie I guess is for cinephiles
@@patcurrie9888 do you feel better for putting me down? I loved the acting but this was a downer of a movie.
@@patcurrie9888 love Andrew Scott . The reason I paid cash to see it in the theater. Hate car crashes and super hero’s. If you wanna discuss we can.
They have changed the woman of the original novel by a guy! Come on! Why these things have to be done today???😓😓 I prefer by far the first 1988 adaptation by Nobuhiko Obayashi
Andrew is an Incredible Actor.
But, this film is very boring. It needs to be re-edited.
Wow.... You need to work on your emotional intelligence
Boring ? Of course, if you are heartless . Not all of us have a heart
I like the story line and how it is told but it's just too gay. Why can't the main character be straight?
That's the whole point, there's lots of straight films.
eek
Ah love. 💜💖
why should they? there are tons of movies about straight people lol. what a stupid question.
Because there is countless movies about straight people and straight main characters. Unless you have a problem with someone being gay why should this bother you?
What is the name of the movie please
All of Us Strangers
