There's a detail in True Detective Episode 5 when Rust Cohle is being interrogated that many of you may have missed. According to the creator, Nic Pizzolatto, Rust asks for a beer not just because he is a functioning alcoholic, but also because once he starts drinking, anything he says after that first sip is inadmissible in court since he is legally incompetent while under the influence. Rust went to the interrogation room solely to hear what new information they had on the case and he speaks extensively without giving any new information.
The first beer was good. But the second, third and fourth were alright, alright, alright.
🤣👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Good one 😂😂😂👍💐
Lmfao🤣
Lol yesssss
Perfect
It's presented pretty clearly in the show and I think Rust even says it flat out to the detectives interviewing him, but either way it's a pretty cool twist. Just one of many examples of how great the writing is in this show.
didnt he even say it here in the fcking clip? XD
You don’t know what a twist is
Nice last name. Your clan was a central part of this in Louisiana 😂😂😂
@@brucewayne823 . Dammm. Which uncle hurt you? Touch the part of the doll where he touched so we can get you some counseling
@@michaelpetersen6579 lol, what?! The bad guy and sheriff in true detective season 1 had the last name Childress. How does that humorous observation equate to me being touched by an uncle.
Or are you just gaslighting like they would’ve done a victim on the show? The internet is awesome!
Scariest written character ever. He wasn't even the bad guy. Just terrifying mixture of raw intelligence, cynicism and ruthlessmess.
Hard to write a likeable misanthrope but they nailed it.
We gotta make this look right.
You’ve never seen an INTP?
@@rahulroyz no, have you ever met a scorpio?
@@ccchefccheffchefff astrology is nonsense
My favorite quote is “ I don’t sleep I just dream” . Whoever wrote this script is a genius
Rust himself thinks life is just a dream & he's awake & aware of it, but i'm sure u already know that
Nic Pizzolatto. I’d highly recommend his short story collection Between Here And The Yellow Sea. I reread the story Ghost Birds at least once a year.
@@onlyashes89
Damn, had no idea. I'll have to check that out, thanks.
I think I might love this show a bit too much. It's not always deep though. Like this line sounds like something people who ever dropped acid in their life would say.
I don’t sleep, I dream is an REM lyric.
One of the greatest TV seasons ever, what a shame it was only one season, what a character Rust Cohle is.
3 seasons, different stories. Second season is also amazing.
@@bobleesniperi wouldn't say amazing, it was good tho
@@bobleesniper No. S1 goated. Season 2 trash, season 3 slightly better trash.
@@mbessahaI couldn't even get through the first episode of night country. Which sucks because apparently it tied into the first season somehow but by that point the show was ruined
@@billygrv2648 Nah, it didn't tie into the first season. They just had Cohle's father appearing as a ghost and slipped in a brief mention to Tuttle International.
Calling someone a company man is one of my favorite insults. Up there with pencil pusher or desk jockey.
Retired police officer here. One of my mentors said, “Every time you accept a promotion, you sell a little bit of your soul”. Whether it’s the police, fire department, military, corporate world, when you move up the chain of command, you often have to put aside what you know is right and tow the company line.
@@charlesbradley5757really good quote and great insight, you probably loved and respected that guy
@@charlesbradley5757 Yeah, especially in the military.
“So death created time to grow the things that it would kill.” 📃✍️🔥
More like time created death
Isnt time a man made concept? I mean who decides the measurements
@@sean78745 Time itself isn't man made, the only thing man made is it's measurement.
You would probably retort: Well than how can we know time exists?
I would argue that nature is a true measurement of time, because all things must change. We don't understand death in the slightest because to understand true death would be to experience it.
@@r2d2musk6 that still doesnt explain seconds minutes or years. It is absolutely fictional
@@sean78745 he literally answered that with his response
First season was lightning in a bottle. There are some scenes and characters that still creep me out when I think of them..
nothing will ever beat season 1 if td
Lightning in a beer bottle...
@@adamgriffiths8639 When the hillbilly meth cook walks out of the trailer with the WW1 gas mask on and looks at the camera that memory still creeps me out all these years later. On the other hand they had great music chosen for each scene eg Nick Cave (Grinderman) singing Honeybee lets fly to Mars for a certain drone shot. The good stuff goes on and on. Then,,,, season 2 letdown sadness...
Seriously? I never watched it
The single shot scene through the biker drug dealers houses is breathtaking
Hands down ONE of the best series ever made. The acting was phenomenal and the way they played the timeline was brilliant..
Going to have to rewatch. That show was sick 💯
All true.
Yup. Totally agreed.
@@719Flowers seriously I need to rewatch it now too lol
Totally agree I think one of the first tv series that really turned the tide on how good a tv shows could be.
True detective season one has become one of those shows that I go back to every so often to re-watch.
A true detective who looks incompetent but is listening and taking in every detail
True Detective was one of the first shows my wife and I watched together when we first started dating. I had never seen it, she had. We don’t watch anything heavy anymore, mostly comedy. I return to this show every so often because it’s incredible and I’m nostalgic.
You should challenge your viewing choices more than just comedies. They’re easy for a relationship but rarely invoke deeper bonds. If your wife watched True Detective before marriage she probably would still enjoy deeper content as well.
@@jayclark1551 I’m gonna spare you the 3 paragraph response I originally wrote and just tell you that you’re wrong. Comedies are precisely what she and I need for a number of reasons I don’t feel like unpacking with some internet rando. Thanks for the pseudo marriage counseling though lol.
Edit: I had to go back and re read my original comment. It was her decision to stop watching shows like that. If she doesn’t want to watch something, I don’t force her to do so.
Wow. That's actually really cool. What a great nostalgic experience to possess. 👍
@@jayclark1551
Yeah, but unusually complex, deeply heavy stuff, especially such a rare gem like this, compels energy and time spent thinking, not to mention the necessary reflection/self- reflection that must go on vis-a-vis the subject matter for any intelligent and authentic person... So turning to well-done comedic content would, just for ONE reason, be of manifold 'therapeutic'/relational/practical/tonal' value for two people getting into each other's complicated, imperfect lives... It's a subtle detail of living, going forward, that either one or both of them consciously at the time or unconsciously seemed to have realized, and somehow tended towards eventually responding to...
It's actually fascinating, these details of life...
When Marty says later on "you weren't interrogating him, he was interrogating you" or something like that 🔥
Probably one of the best shows ever. The time skip shows rust hasn’t lost a step. He’s still buried in the case, while covering his own ass and not revealing what he knows. He milks the detectives the best he can then blows it open.
He also does it to establish a clear power dynamic, getting the cops to run errands for him clearly shows them he is in full control
I also thought this.
Most unbelievable part is that a functioning alcoholic waits til 12 on his days off
That's because he wakes up at 1145 after drinking til 4 am on Friday night.
What the last dude said. He doesn’t wake till noon.
"Functioning "
I had Nic as a GA for a creative writing class at the U of Arkansas years ago and could definitely tell he was on another creative level. Made me realize writing was not my gift or talent at all 😂😂. He was a strange but very cool dude. Nice to see his success with true detective, hope he writes more shows in the future! Southern culture is finally being shown to the rest of the country.
What do you do sir?
He ripped off a book writer word for word.
@@redouanedahhani7000you'd be surprised how much art is "ripped off"
@redouanedahhani7000 You were too lazy to even mention the books name😂😂? Bro it's on Wikipedia even (The conspiracy agaisnit the human race) and I wouldn't say it's a rip off.
Rust’s character is the picture of every man with a lot of years in a set discipline of work, but his was one that had SO many demons involved. He was savvy in the ways of deception within the bounds of the law he swore to uphold. He knew enough to say what he needed to without getting himself stuck in a courtroom as his beer request was on the department, and he got to air out his laundry.
Well said.
@@brucewayne823 they call it insight because you have to have worn the skin to see its perspective.
This was such a great season of true detective. One of my all time favorite season of a show. Woody and matthew, had the best chemistry!
By the best
I haven't watched True Detective since it came out. Gonna watch it again after seeing this. Thanks.
Yup, it's definitely time for a re-watch 👍🏻
Enjoy!
It's fkn great show, and the first season should if won awards, better than any movies that came out at same time, and matter and woody Harrelson, like come on fkn awesome chemistry
Iconic role. Probably one of his top three best performances
His second best was in Texas Chainsaw. Crazy guy
@@justin-md4xm It just a dumb and silly movie, but I loved it. His performance is so fun to look at.
One of the greatest performances by an actor, in any format you can think of.
Facts 👍
He just blacked out or some shit and went to another place playing this role I guess because this was on another level
That first season is one of the best shows of all times!! The way Woody and Matt played off each other was just amazing
There are two "GREATEST OF ALL TIME" shows in my books: The Sopranos and True Detective
Rust Cohle is one of the best-written characters, not only in crime TV - ever. That combination of cynism, and philosophy with raw intellect and remarkable ability to get "inside someone's head" - no one managed to do that. Mathew did amazing job, his best role to-date
agreed! but I would say that breaking bad is in tje top 3 100%
Man, breaking bad (and better call saul for that matter) should never be ignored
this show was soooo awesome man. they should have stopped after 1st season and called the rest something else.
I’m thinking of watching this, is the 2nd season bad?
@@hboss7039 its an anthology series, so each season has different charectors/actors/story. the first is phenomenal. second and third is alright. in the second collin farrells charector is a standout. but i dont recomend watching the second after the first, maybe watch the second season 1st and third season 2nd and save the 1st season for last, since they are extremely overshadowed by the first season.
@@cameronbader8802 thanks bro
@@hboss7039 theyre not bad but not as good as season 1 imo. cameron bader said it PERFECTLY!
@@hboss7039 second season is completely different and it's a bad story line
This series is something that you don't see too often, it's perfection. It's something that should have never been expanded on.
My viewing sorted, such a brilliant series. Alexandra's best work also
For a functioning alcoholic, a 6 pack of beer is a hearty breakfast.
McConaughey was in a movie called Lonestar, the brand of beer he's drinking, a decade or so before True Detective.
It’s the official beer of Texas
The best detail in true detective was when we got to see all the details Alexandra D'addario had to offer. Those were the best details in the whole show!!
Did she show her rack or sum? I need to know lmao I wanna see it 😭😅🤦🏻♂️
The show was much better than her but she is absolutely exquisite.
Word. 👍🙏
I thought maybe I missed a scene reading this briefly.
No. I definitely did not. Not one scene or detail.
Nah. The snow was 100 times better than seeing her
Seasons 2-3 should be called Untrue Detective
Season 2 is not that bad, just messier than the 1st one but it had a very good story and Colin Farrell is brilliant. Haven't seen the 3rd one
True Detective: San Andreas
True Detective: Pink Princess
Seen season 4 yet? 😂
All of that was true but he went there and interrogated them and made them think they were interrogating him. He also TOLD them what he thought with the time is a flat circle speech. Russ was awesome and Matt’s best roll ever. He nails this…
True. He wanted to know how much info they have on the case 😂
Man I liked this season. Had no idea what I was into when I decided to "check it out". I was hooked
We
The magnum opus of Cinematic Art. A true mastery and excellence in acting, storytelling, cinematography and many things
Dude that season is a GEM. Wish they could have done something else with it.
Wow. I knew it but still had to be told. Rusty is one of the all time best characters ever written!!!
He even says it in the show lol.
And Acted Matt absolutely Killed this role
"You don't get to interrupt that" always gets a chuckle out of me. Sometimes, even a chortle.
A chortle is less than a chuckle LOL... Most people haven't ever heard the term chortle or know what it means, so when I saw it in your comment, I had to stop & say something my friend haha, good one
*_It's amazing that there are so many Lovecraftian themes and cues in this series and it never was intended to be just that. Lovecraft has crept into so many minds unknowing it has happened to them._*
Agreed, so many people think Lovecraft is all about cosmic horror, but if you actually read him, he's about forbidden dark knowledge, psychological terror, ancient architecture and the insignificance of man.
Don’t get me started buddy oh boy
Wow.
@@Ironwind1972
Double wow.
Fascinating insight, as all I know of him are the infinite references to him we're aware of in the information age... but the heart of the matter is the heart of the matter. 👍
@@justinklenk Yeah for sure. It's kind of like the Dracula syndrome. Everyone hears what they hear, but very few actually read it.
the best part of that sequence of scenes is the Big Hug Mug that Rust uses as an ash tray. It's a call back to David Lynch's Twin Peaks.
By far the best miniseries I’ve seen to date.
That concept about death being the start of everything really make sense.
Did he just walk out of the conference room of DunderMifflin Scranton??
“Time created death to grow the things it would kill.” That shit dark af
Its actually the other way around but yeah def dark af
@@Thompson1776 which part is backwards? Put it in a sentence please?
@@joeyc1725 he says, "Death created time.."
McConaughey ad libbed that line.
He says that every night when he tucks his 5 year old into bed.
@@joeyc1725 .
Voluntary intoxication doesn't make a statement automatically inadmissible
Thank you!
It does since they bought and gave it to him.
God, I love the second half of MM's career. Interstellar, True Detective, Dallas Buyer's Club, so many phenomenal roles from him
The Gentlemen?
Looking forward to seeing what he and Taylor Sheridan will cook up in his Yellowstone universe show.
He will always be Wooderson, that being said a great talent nonetheless
Don’t forget Mud
what's great about him Is that he is seen as that pot smoking alright alright alright guy which you would think would pigeon hole an actor and yet he embraces it and defies by flexing his acting skills!!!! True Detective, The Gentlemen, Time To Kill, Dallas, Interstellar, and that tid bit in Wolf of Wallstreet et al. ....shows you why he's a master in his craft!
Another thing you may not know is that Cole's Voice never rises above about 34 decibels. Essentially he whispers the entire series. It's easier to hear though because he has a very low pitch, around 70 Hertz and low pitch sounds are easier for humans to hear and translate.
These are fun facts I just made up
Matthew McConaughey has developed so much as an actor. Absolutely incredible, and still so underappreciated
Absolutely. Just... incredible - one of my favorite pieces of acting, period. And the best series I've ever seen - hands down, which says alot.
TLDR: "Alright _alRIGHT!"_
This was a brilliant season and his character was fascinating.
One of the finest actor's in the world in my opinion. He was phenomenal in True Detective.
Literally top 5 mini series of all time. Everything about this show was incredible! It’s to bad the second season was just okay.
1. Lonesome Dove
2. True Detectives
3. Band of Brothers
There is a 3rd as well
@@glo1168 A third True Detectives? I lost interest after a couple episodes into the second. I did t know that.
@@SteelNGuitars926 yes it kept my interest longer than the second, I think I got to the last 2 episodes and then just got distracted lol. Need to rewatch. Stars Mahershala Ali
They actually just showed a snippet from a fourth season
@@glo1168 Fourth season starts in January
The nod of approval when that first swig of beer hits home...
We've all been there...
One of the greatest characters in television history. Think they made this detail about him using the beer to make it inadmissible pretty obvious though.
Season 1 really was incredible. Some of the best television I’ve ever seen
The first season of True Detective is the best season of any tv show ever.
I heard in a ground breaking interview that him and Woody had a daily Marijuana budget on the show and they always exceeded it
Between 2 ferns?😊
Thank you this actually blew my mind 😅
Such an outstanding first season.
A guy I know who taught a DWI first offender's class told me one way to avoid a drunk driving conviction is to keep a pint of whiskey in your glove box. As soon as you get pulled over, jump out of the car and guzzle the booze so the cop sees you. The can't prove you were drunk behind the wheel.
Or just don't be a pos and drive drunk.
Another way is to not drink and drive
@@mfreddy21 Sure, that goes without saying, but you did. I doubt it would work, because jumping out of the car during a traffic stop is a good way to get shot. I just thought it was odd that a guy whose job was to prevent DWI recidivism would share such an idea.
Rust is one of the most interesting characters ever written for television. And MM played him absolutely perfectly.
Man the time they go get the bad guy and he gets stabbed was creepy asf.
LMAO “functioning alcoholic” that starts drinking at noon on off days. My dad starts 20 minutes after he wakes up
Ikr it's more like they wake up, immediately walk to the porch, light a cigarette and pop a beer lmao
@@MGavin my dad thinks his vape saves him from this being his reality😭😭😭
@waterfooler he has the fuckin bottle he can read it if he likes. Why do you think he would even listen to me?
Can’t drink all day if you don’t start in the morning
I couldn't really say when my pops "started" drinking, as that would imply that he must have stopped at some point prior to that. But I guess if I had to, I'd say sometime around 1989. And stopped about 2013.
RIP pops, despite his flaws, he was still a good man.
Edit: Sorry, I missed the word "functioning" in there.
I love the fact that those detectives interviewing him were like 2 water guns trying to shoot down a stealth bomber. Love this show (season 1) so much
Love that metaphor
The part about "death created time" is probably from William Burroughs "Ah Pook is here" which has the line, "Death needs time for what it kills to grow in". But I haven't seen this movie.
I'm wary of clicking on clips like this because if I do all I want to do is binge watch the entire first season for the 100th time
Best show i have ever watched
I know this guy… not him in particularly but a former detective who looks and acts just like this who was once as clean cut as they get. Throughout his 25 years on the force he seen all sorts of things that turned him into the exact same person depicted here. It’s crazy
My favorite series of a show. Ever.
Top 3 best season of any show ever. McConaughey absolutely killed this role..
I've heard good things about the first season of this show. Is it worth watching?
Yes.
“That’s the thing I love about interrogations,
I keep gettin drunker, and the detectives just stay right where they are.
Yes they do, yes they do.”
I can't be the only one who understands that reference
The versatility is top tier, heard his same accent in so many other movies but you can feel the dark personality in this one
not sure I would take that drunk part about not being able to provide legal evidence.
Ruste Cohle is simply the best character in the history of TV. Every single scene he was involved in mattered and every single word he outtered had a deeper meaning. One of one
Just as a heads up in case we've got anyone who might have a chat with law enforcement here: being intoxicated doesn't preclude your statements from being admissible in court. How a jury interprets statements made while intoxicated can vary, but being an alcoholic, I'd bet the prosecution wouldn't have a hard time showing that he wasn't intoxicated off a couple of beers, and anything he said would be just as truthful as if he hadn't had a lick of alcohol.
Right, following their logic then anyone that did anything while intoxicated couldn’t be prosecuted
Intoxication has to be proved. He’d have to be pretty fall down drunk before it wouldn’t be admissible.
No
@@enochi5219 bruh you honestly believe the police have never used the words of a drunk person against them in court?
@@davidlake7963 read what u wrote , i could have 1 beer and get it all dismissed u dont need to be fall down drunk
It’s the fact that the detectives bought it for him. They supplied the alcohol. Any attorney or public defender would suppress this with ease.
Yeah, yet you don’t have to be falling down before being issued a DUI….
Kinda like your house is worth one thing when you owe taxes and worth something else if you put it on the market.
The game is always rigged against the little guy
Really wish they would have said fuck the TV series and made this into a 3 plus hour long movie. Like damn this was one of the best shows I’ve ever watched in my life!
This is one of the best seasons of any show ever made. Absolute masterpiece.
Rust Cohle is one of the best characters ever created in any mini-series and is probably one of the best roles that McConaughey has ever portrayed on film.
Well that's not a thing but ok. Officers takes the statements of drunks every day and the statements are 100% admissible in court.
Yeah. This is a bit “Rules of Evidence” fail.
Ah yes, the old “one sip and you can’t say incriminating evidence” rule
Obtuse, choosing not to understand.
Or you just don't know shit because you're a child.
@@elitexpgaming1810 oBtUsE
@@mookiecookie44 ahhh child 😂 ok cool
@@elitexpgaming1810 what's to understand? The statement is factually incorrect, being intoxicated does not make the things you say inadmissible in court.

The first season of this show is by far one of my favorite series ever.
literally the best season from any true crime show ever. All time favorite. Prove me wrong. 🐸

Galaxy brain
This season of True Detective was way better than expected.
I recently sat down to watch the first episode and ended up binging the whole thing.
The pairing with Woody Harrelson made for a great buddy drama even though they sorta hated each other...
I love this show. Every season is a different story, so awesome. The acting, some of the best performances I've ever seen. I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it yet.
Imma have to watch this
Yes
Jesus you haven't seen true detective season 1? A top watching any clips immediately. You're so dam lucky. I'd kill to be able to watch it for tbe first time again
The conspiracy was so deep, he was getting a read on the Detectives to 1) To see how close they may be to solving 2) To see if they were “company men” and were now in on it and 3) To see which one could be relied upon to help he and Marty once they made their move.
Him and Marty hadn't talked to each other in years at this point
@@liljackypaper correct, but he was still working the case and knew A LOT about it. He knew how high up it went. Remember the storage facility? He knew things were coming to a head and knew they were interviewing Marty as well. He knew he was a suspect bc he showed up in lake Charles where they had him pictured at the newest crime scene. He literally set all of this up for the final showdown with Errol Childress. He went to “collect his debt” from Marty for helping him cover up murdering Reggie Ledoux(rightfully so). Errol Childress was giving ‘ those with eyes to see’ clues to find him. Errol was very intelligent in his own way. He was attempting to draw his worthy adversary, Rust, out for the final showdown where his death would remove him from the cycle of reincarnation. Watch his description to his sister inside the house. He’s explaining it to her. “I’m near final stage. Some mornings I can see the infernal plane.”
This show was so well done.
@@liljackypaper I just remember him telling the one detective that helped him, ‘ I couldn’t get read on the other guy, but when we call on you, come fucking running.’
This show, this season specifically, is the best television ever made. I've watched it 5 times already and I'm blown away each time. I reccomend everyone to watch it, you will not be disappointed.
As long as I live, I'll never forget Marty's last words to Rust: "In this world, there are far too many false detectives. But you, Rust, you are a true detective."
I would start drinking with Mathew at noon 🕛!
Well, I rarely even wait for him to show up.
I wrote my fiction novel based on what the 2nd season of True Detective should have been. Excellent performance by Harrelson as well.
We got what it should have been lol. What you expect/want is not the same was what should be.
We got a great season. Nic was never going to write another season with Rust and Marty.
One of the Smartest characters I’ve ever seen, mans was extremely smart and experienced in so much, I loved that season
My favorite part of this show was when he interrogates that female who killed her kid, gets her to confess than tells her to kill herself because she will get eaten alive in prison. That was just great
1000iq move
By far one of the best / complex / frustrating/ characters ever brought to life.
Dude that season was by far one of the best shows I’ve ever seen.
No, he wanted the cans of beer to cut the human-figurines that he assembled on the table which resembled a bunch of people standing around.
he’s so clever
It's presented pretty clearly in the show and I think Rust even says it flat out to the detectives interviewing him, but either way it's a pretty cool twist.
