    Christina Ricci was 17 during the filming of Buffalo 66, and has vowed never to work with Gallo again. “I spent most of that movie trapped in a car with a raving lunatic.” And Gallo said of her: "an ungrateful c--t, basically a puppet. I told her what to do, and she did it."

      He literally tells her what to do in the movie so I totally believe him when he says she was a puppet.
      Not really a bad thing as an actress she was just taking directions from the director.
      I do think he should of been nicer to her.
      At the end of the day she was a famous actress who was willing to work in his movie while he was unknown so she was doing him a favour.
      He tends to put all of this work into becoming a successful celebrity but then he can’t help himself but treat people like shit especially women.
      Have you seen the clip about what Courtney cox says about him?
      I almost feel she would sleep with him if he played his cards right. She’s way too hot and successful for him but good in him if he ever did manage to Mack her. I mean what an accomplishment and also it provides hope for the rest of us lol.

    Vincent Gallo is an master auteur. Back in 1998, my father went to a theater and saw Buffalo 66. He then told me about it and recommended that I see it. We ended up seeing it together. I enjoyed it! My dad died 13 years ago. I still remember the day I saw this movie with him. I thank Vincent Gallo for making this movie, and my father for telling me about it, and going to see it with me.

      It's such a special film. Idk if we'll ever see anything like it again, in the 90's you could make an indy film like that which would make money and be seen by a lot ppl, and it could be eccentric and unique. People wanted that.
      These days, indy films are mostly crap and just do what they think the audience wants, I don't see the singular vision anymore. I don't see vulnerability in the script or vision in the direction and photography.
      At some point, I hope I do see things change and we see a real art film again, but idk if, quite literally, the human capital is there. Western society has changed so much since the 90's, there are simply fewer people who can make such things.

    • @ciaraskeleton
      @ciaraskeleton Před 5 měsíci

      @@landofthesilverpath5823 I think even back then this film had quite a mixed reception, people weren't too excited about it and I think Vincent felt like he was wasting money making movies that didn't ever make the money back, and that were harshly criticised by people who just..didn't like indie film. Which Is actually insane to me. You'd think that back then people were cooler, but a lot weren't.
      It's genuinely crazy to me that audiences now and then didn't go crazy for it. To me it's timeless anyway, and I think as time passes it ages like fine wine.
      I think he stopped showing movies publicly too and just started making stuff basically to show his friends and went reclusive. He never ever received much praise for anything other than from indie lovers.
      But I agree totally, no one would even bother making a film truly based on their own unique vision, without pandering to the audience. It takes integrity out of film. We have the industry as a whole to blame for that, bc since the start the film corporations only cared about entertainment and money. Not about art. So the films that make money are the ones that will keep being churned out, leaving no room for proper grassroots indie directors.
      I swear these days I find short films made my media students to be more creative and gripping than a lot of professionally directed movies. I love seeing artistic vision, i love seeing a person's unique take and creation.

    I was born in 67. RIGHT after the "summer of love" . Now i had walked past the VHS box for B66 so many times , i also bad vibe from it . Years later i read a comment about CR dancing to "Moonchild" which is a King Crimson song in the film . Now i know good music and Crimson is GREAT music . its some of the most challenging yet rewarding music in existence . i am a HUGE huge huge huge adrian belew fan as well . So i put this thing on really late one night , my wife was asleep on the couch next to me . Saying that the movie blew my mind would be an understatement, words do not exist for how hard i got off on it , i mean i was also repulsed at the way he treated her but eventually it got to the point i was laughing - defense mech kicked in . i remember watching again. then the next day - i immediately forced my wife to watch it , and burned dvd copys for some of my friends , including my old singer pal who had grown up in a household where they WORSHIPED the NFL . He absolutely loved it too . there was a handful of people i gave it to who never said anything to me about it . they more than likely did not watch it , you know how people are - horses - water . it is one of those movies you just HAVE to see . i am stoked to watch your video learn more , and i am looking forward to watching BB but i have to say - same thing .i remember being totally put off by reading the back of the dvd cover for that one and when this occured it was BEFORE i had watched B66 . i gotta say that scene where she dances is one of the coolest arty things i ever saw in a movie , but the whole bowling alley scene was perfect . such a great movie , i want to watch it again right now . i am not a movie nut either . it was just this thing - with the dad singing - i was so moved . you just wont find a better film but also a polarizing one . i could see a lot of alpha male dickish types not being able to stomach reality . i am not a cuck but i also never would treat anyone like VG acted in this movie . When you see the dad its apple/tree and omg the mom was perfect too . what a great movie . ok - i just got to the part where you said -top ten - and masterpiece - right on my man , right on . it wasnt just me .

    I’m a fan of both of Gallo’s commercially released feature films. The Brown Bunny has a lot in common in terms of feel and style with Two-Lane Blacktop (Monte Hellman’s wonderful 1971 existential road movie). There isn’t enough appreciation for Gallo as an actor. He always gives a dynamic performance. I thought it was a shame that he didn’t get more screen time in Goodfellas. Also, I enjoyed his antics in calling out Hollywood celebrities for being phoneys. Whilst I don’t agree with his politics, at least he hasn’t phoned it in, like so many do.

    He was raised at a time and place where some would consider "America Was Great", in the type of upbringing that is today rightfully considered to be disturbing, sick, and abusive - both psychologically and physical. if you ask older people, you'll find a common trait: That they left their home as soon as they could, typically as early as between 14-16, to a large city, as they had planned it for a long time, not willing to continue to tolerate the abuse at home. This is what happened to Vincent Gallo. Such type of upbringing damages the psyche to people in such ways that later in life are manifested in behavior and beliefs. Whether in the films or in real life - even if were your next door neighbor - it is unlikely you'd ever find any trace of human warmth in the behavior or speech of the man, not because he's evil or a fascist, but because of the severe damage done to him by his parents. "Old School" fathers, no matter the ethnic, national or religious background, tended to be brutal with their kids, as they followed the obscene patterns of their own past. Fortunately men today are largely changing for the better, despite the occasional loud assholes you'd read about or see on videos or TV. It makes a father more manly to be soft and patient than hard , brutal and unforgiving, to cover up their own deficiencies through cowardly and abusive ways. And when they get old, all men will reap what they've sown, even the most macho ones. For Vincent Gallo I feel admiration as a filmmaker, and pity as a man.

    He’s a controversial person, honestly I can’t say how much is like this as person and how much he has created a character to play in life, maybe he exaggerates sometimes to provoke. I wouldn’t be surprised if he has created a character in real life because he’s very talented. I have seen buffalo 66. Never seen nothing like this. The movie is clearly autobiographic in part, his suffering and struggles are touching. I have noticed that in some interviews he’s contradictory as many topics for example his parents, sometimes he describes them as abusive sometimes not, he says he had a great childhood maybe sometimes a little bit severe. In that case I had the feeling he was hiding something, maybe liying for shame, he didn’t feel to be vulnerable in that interview. My opinion is that he’s very fragile, he had a difficult past and a difficult period after the brown bunny, and sometimes he acts like he doesn’t care about anything but his egocentrism is a mask to offset his fragilities. He’s a genius in a controversial and interesting way.

      I think he exaggerates in order to sound interesting. You can’t be a dull celebrity can you. That’s why he says the things about his parents when I’m sure they were actually a lot nicer and way less abusive.
      You look quite attractive yourself, where are you from Cristina?
      He kinda reminds me of Quintin Tarantino bit. Like his looks and the way he acts and behaves. They are both southern Italian so that’s the reason.
      He’s self conscious because he’s ugly. I’m not sounding mean but that’s the reason. It’s that simple. He even talks about how his dad called him a retard for wanting to be an actor when he doesn’t have the face for it which actually is nonsense Becuase acting isn’t about being good looking. He’s talented, creative and smart for sure and a hard worker so he’s claimed. He said he was the smartest in his school which I can almost believe.
      As for buffalo 66. It’s hard to find so I tried watching in using an online free movies site and yea it’s not a bad movie. Especially considering he did everything himself. His acting isn’t the greatest. Sometimes it looks as if he’s not even acting he’s just being real which I don’t like but at the same time think it’s refreshing, something different and new and kinda cool to see. His relationship with Cristina Ricci is interesting to watch. The ending is IMO is where the movie is at it’s best although his acting and directing needs improving m for sure. I could go on and go about him but I’ll keep it short (relatively) for your sake. I hope you read my comment and respond as I enjoy not only watching him and his work but talking to others about him.

      I was surprised and a bit shocked he used his real parents and actually the large chunk of the movie with them I found boring. I’ve only seen the film once and often I’ve realised sometimes a movie grows on me. So I may not like it at first but then come to really like it and even appreciate how good it may be. I have an idea for a short movie myself. It’s kinda like a cross between the movie straight time starring Dustin Hoffman and reservoir dogs (straight time influenced Tarantino to make reservoir dogs if you didn’t know). Also my short has its own m aesthetics and style but no doubt I’ve been influenced by tarts Tunis movies as I enjoy them very much. I’ve also wanted to learn and study and watch Elias Kazan’s movies as I think he’s one of the great film directors. He heavily influenced Scorsese.

      Yea I agree about his eyes for sure they are surprisingly bright and the colour also for a Sicilian. I remember that was one of the first things that drew me to him was his unusual eye colour for his ethnicity. I definite envy him a bit about that. My eyes aren’t dark though.

    I watched Buffalo '66 when it came out. It's a great film but thoroughly uncomfortable to watch. In hindsight, and knowing a bit more about Vincent Gallo, it's a bit more troubling. There's nothing wrong with being weird and, indeed, I actively encourage it, but VG verges into being disturbing and disturbed. I don't think he's dangerous or anything, but he sure is fucked up.

    • @slow.poetry
      @slow.poetry Před 7 měsíci +1

      I'm 99% certain the only reason he's never been accused of anything post-MeToo is because he pretty much gave up on his career after The Brown Bunny. He basically cancelled himself.

    Every so often i'll put Vince's name into the ol' CZcams search, to see if hipsters are stil lauding and hating... People love him and celebrate his cinematic genius and people hate him, thinking he thinks he's some kind of cinematic genius. Really he's a workingman's writer, director, actor, musician, artist, collector... He could have been (dare I say) a top tier standup/social commentator but believe it or not, he doesn't give a shit about fame or adoration...he's not less famous than he could have been or avoiding "selling-out" or whatever... If you think he's hiding because of Brown Bunny, think again... I mean, after all did you see how he mailed in his "performance" in that Courtney Cox "film". He made a few hundred thousand dollars in a few weeks, which was the point. He doesn't give a shit, which is also the point. He is funny as fuck and sharp as a whip.

Trust me, he has gorgeous girlfriends, he doesn't prostitute himself. I used to live and work in Hollywood and knew him somewhat. He and I crossed paths during his modeling phase, I am a model and would see him at fashion shows. He is a character that is for sure. A bit of a madman. A tortured genius.

    I first saw VG in ‘Arizona Dream’ by Emir Kustarica- in my opinion his character absolutely steals the show. I went to see ‘Buffalo 66’ with two friends. I utterly loved him berating CR in the car scene. And his directing of them both in the Photo Booth scene. Loved B66- my friends were thoroughly annoyed by the character on screen.

    It’s a mystery to me why he’s not prolific as an actor, as he has a very unique quality. Maybe Brown Bunny really did destroy his career. However, it didn’t interrupt his success as a fashion model. Meanwhile, Buffalo ‘66 and his album When show great promise. I agree with you that he’s “insanely talented,” and hope he figures out how to make a comeback.

    if Vincent Gallo made 10 films the sequence would reward study. I believe he'd evolve and you would see it in the work. it takes an arc of work, corps de travail, to render a decent judgement. he never gave himself the chance. I saw Brown Bunny when it first came out and the film wasn't as bad as it was reviewed, disturbing, yes, but the protagonist was an adrenaline junkie and anyone who's ever raced cafe motorcycles will tell you how insane that world is. And we all deal with death differently. A man can be destroyed and not defeated. unfortunately, Gallo let himself be defined by that one SPLAT as Stewart Stern would say. You make a brilliant film, you make a bad film and the world will love to hate you for the bad one. But in the end you can't give what you don't have, a cliche, I know, but it's sad we didn't get a chance to see if he had anything else to give besides Brown Bunny which was his purge or decompression from the high of Buffalo 66
