      @@Sommervillle As a working dramaturge I thank you for sharing this deep dive into the heart of drama as it applies to the human condition. Aristotle would have been very much on board with the dramatic core revolving around family relationships. He also would have insisted on a worthwhile protagonist going through properly plausible moments of development for actual drama to be able to occur, rather than relying on the willingness of random audience members to use their imaginations to gloss over shoddy storytelling and absence of actual narrative coherence.
      I guess the key to doing that is having some semblance of knowledge of what makes or breaks drama is in the first place. Imagine that.

    3:36 Wonderful reaction by DiCaprio here, conveying the realization that, by the standards of the "civilization" his father and Bill represent, Bill's revenge *was* well done. Fair play under the principles both men lived by. He's grasping the distinction between hating the player and hating the game.

    • @skyfryer1223
      @skyfryer1223 Před 5 měsíci +17

      Well said. He goes through a process within his relationship to Bill. From Stranger to friend to family. He has to compose himself when initially confronted with Bill and then again when he is confronted with his own affections for the same man who killed his father. He understands the paradox in that he believes he is superficially gaining the man's trust, when he is actually developing a kinship on a genuine level. He develops that feeling into respect and trust despite the revenge that feels just. And just as you said, once he comes to the revelation of seeing Bill as just another part in something bigger. Though he is driven into the eventuality of one of them killing the other, he still holds onto the respect he has for Bill. Just as Bill shared for his father.
      The exploration of the patriarch and revenge themes in this film really make it lasting story for me.

      @@tookiedew well for the purposes of this conversation the “context” I’m referring to is, that of a governing body in need of a way to create a peaceful and harmonious society. Criminals who do not fear consequences are criminals who do not stop committing crimes.
      History has taught us time and time again that people need a governing body to control them. Without it, it’s simply just dog eat dog. War of tribes, and then society devolves into dictatorial rule by the one with the most military might.

      Its a masterpiece of restrained direction. Scorsese doesn't move the camera, he doesn't cover the scene with lots wides and close ups. Just two static medium shots. That's it. Almost five minutes of film, covered with two static shots. And that's all that is needed. That's why I say it's a masterpiece of direction. Scorsese has two great actors, armed with an amazing script. He places his camera, and gets the hell out of the way to let them do their thing.

    I really have to say this, but Bill the Butcher is Daniel Day Lewis's best role in my opinion. Lots of people would like to say "Lincoln" or "There Will Be Blood" (which are both exceptional performances), but the thing about Bill's character is that Daniel played him as a villain with a moral code. He saw the world around him as if it's the law of the jungle in his eyes. He was truly ruthless and yet he felt grief over killing the most honorable man in combat. That shows how complicated Bill the Butcher is as a character. It's even more haunting when you find out he is a _real person_ in actual history. It's chilling.

    Daniel is so good that when Bill talks about the memory of the fight and almost getting killed, you can hear like a really faint trembling in the breathing and voice just like he would be in the memory as he describes it. Ofcourse being the character he is in this movie, those suddle things are like closest of Billy showing any vunerability. Not over or under doing anything, just on point. He's truly an anomaly in what he can do, there just isn't anyone else who have done as many you could say just Perfect roles with full on transformations. Knowing who the character is and being the character as well as can.
    Even movies where he doesn't like fullfull on transform like In The Name of The Father he is always good if the movie otherwise holds up. There just is these handfull of times where the character, his choices from the years prep and director with the script just have created something that nobody else have managed to come even close to (it is quite crazy how much he can learn in a year, he learns things that won't even neccesarily be shown in the movie like writing in certain way). Anybody coming close to him not that I've seen, just how eerily differend but convincing he can be from just himself with having down everything from voice to mannerisms to every minor detail.

    I've seen a lot of Daniel Day Lewis movies but I'm pretty sure I could sit next to him on a plane and never know it was him. He's so versatile in his roles and reserved in his personal life it's hard to a put a finger on the man. Some actors, like Tom Cruise, are basically the same person in every movie and real life but Lewis is so versatile that every character he plays is completely different than the others. He may be the greatest actor to have ever lived.
