19:28 I disagree. I think characters like the Lich from adventure time, A very easily understood character all things considered, Can be terrifying. He is the end of all things. He brings death to everyone in time. Him being so focused on that goal, so inexorable, is part of what makes him so scary. It isn't the knowing. It is the understanding.
Soder, I've seen most of these movies before but have been grappling with this strange feeling of connection to RG since seeing Barbie almost a year ago. Saw Fall Guy and it only amplified it. Haven't been able to stop thinking about it for a few days, and I don't know how to describe except to say it does almost feel like RG is me (crazy, I get it). I'm a big movie buff but haven't felt this way about any other star (closest would be Timothee Chalamet and Steve Carrell for their roles as the Sheffs in Beautiful Boy). This video essay makes me think I'm not unique for feeling this way. Here's my question-- what is it about RG (or others) that makes me feel so seen and connected to him?
i liked the labeling of chigurh as not death, but the new man. the man that doesn't just try to live and being morally grey, but a man with a code; a code over everything else.
The thing is that the husband was a narcissist too. It is a thing in society that when a man treats a wife badly, she is supposed to take the hit. It's normal for the guy to check out emotionally on marriage, use most of her money and cheat with a student half his age. Yet when a woman fights back...whoa she's crazy! Nah. They were both selfish and crazy. Maybe if men had consequences for their sociopathy they'd think twice.
I hate to say it, but I will. Harry Dean Stanton needed an actress who, along with heartbreaking beauty, could also convey heartbreaking pain. Stanton has the inherant character to pull from the deep. Beautiful Nastassja was simply too well, too well. From the era, possibly Meryl, or....?
I tried watching "only god forgives" but it was actually bad, I can't think of any other time where I've stopped watching a movie half way through other than this one.
"A half hour after use" Try 1-2 minutes after smoking, or 5-6 minutes after snorting. I imagine 1/2 hour would be accurate if a person took it in a pill form, but growing up in an area where lots of people were doing this stuff in the 80s or 90s, so I watched how quickly it would change a person's demeanor...sometimes for the better...sometimes for the worse. That's what was so dangerous...you never know.
I'd once met a girl like Amy. Her life theories have impressed me since I hung out with her. She knows how to get what she wants; she stirs everyone's pot until all the sub-relationships around her get into a mess, and no one would question her but still lose themselves in her charm. She tried to fabricate evidence to make the police believe she was being domestic abused by her ex-husband. She tried to use the law to get full access to her ex-husband's property and tried to leave her ex nothing after the divorce, those she'd never paid a penny for. And she did all this when she was 19 years old. I was her best friend, and ended up separated ugly because I started my own company. I guess she doesn't like to see someone who always admired her try to do something she wanted to do, then she spread the most malicious rumors about me in our community, left me stuck in depression for 5 years, still in and out of it. But she is very charming and beautiful, like toxic but makes you high, and her ways of thinking were so eye-opening for me when I was 21-23 years old. Now I am a student of psychology. I know she is just a psychopath and a narcissistic person. (and we all Chinese)
just watched The Fall Guy and I really fall for this guy 😂😭🤭💀 he is very charismatic?? I've known Ryan Gosling for so long, I just don't bother to watch his movies. but now... it's about time 👅
I hate lalaland, not only i dont like musicals, i also saw the movie in the middle of an aweful break up with what i thought was the love of my life, bad timing to struck me down, and i never watched it again, ans i don't think i would never will since it brings the worst memories of that year
Why doesn’t nobody talk about the past girl who wrote a note and left it under the stone? What does that mean? Is there anything related to the ghost wife? And in multiple scenes there is a light of rainbow what does that mean? Please anybody explain me this.
She was the wife and he was her father in that previous life. He was attached to the property because of that life as pioneers. Remember she wanted to move but he didnt?
My favorite seen is were he meats up with the trailer park receptionist whom has an hard core personality. Doesn’t flip a coin, just gives a double take as he leaves the premises. Something missed by most everyone.
Re the boys: 1.He needed the shirt and he needed it tied. 2. I think the facrvthat he bribed them hints at how future generations are at risk of being drawn into the corruption.
To Me, he survives because he has sold his soul. He knows he is trapped in the industry. His tragedy is that he wants to retain a fibre of his humanity. However, if he controls that resurrection, he will die. So he puts the control in the hands of the victim.
Spares the boys: Bone poking out of arm, sirens in the back, crashed the stolen car of a women he just murdered down the street.....spared the boys lol?
He is an amazing actor and a good singer and dancer too. Love his work. I've watched nearly all of his movies other than the extremely early ones. He won his first Oscar nomination for Half Nelson. It should've been ranked higher. He has decidedly stayed away from superhero flicks still portraying real characters. One of the most underrated actors. Barbie would've been a flop without him. Hoping he wins an Oscar some day. He deserves it. ❤
Anton Chigurh isn't an agent of death. He's an agent of Fate. Choices must invoke Fate. The Clerk didn't make any choices in his life. Someone *_else_* chose for him to be there, so Chigurh tossed a coin and forced him to choose. Chigurh offers a deal, and later, exactly one other coin toss precisely because he doesn't like someone *_else's_* choices invoking Fate.
I took it to mean, why the hell would you marry into this heap of junk? Then i thought chagur gave the accountant a chance to say, no i didnt see a thing! Im probably wrong lol
