Jordan Peele discusses GET OUT at UCLA 1-31-18 

I love how he repeats the questions so the audience can hear what is being asked. This guy is such a pro.

Seeing this just after Nope came out is really inspiring, crazy to think only a few years later Jordan would be getting huge budgets for original content. A real American hero.

"I'm not somebody who necessarily likes to be told the truth; I like to find the truth in what is presented to me." Love it.

As a black man, one of the things I appreciate most about Peele is his ability to help his white audience members begin to understand and, more importantly, empathize with our unique black American experience. I can't think of another black film maker who has been as effective a bridge of understanding thru their work and thru events like this one. It's tough being black in America and the kind of progress we need to make will require white allies who are as invested as POC are! 22:20 "I don't necessarily like to be told the truth, I like to find the truth in what is presented to me."

Wow!!!! To be in that class!!!!!!

i was waiting for him to say ''con-seq-uences''

I once read that in order to have a successful conversation, attempt to repeat what the person says in a manner that they’re able to stop and say “I never thought to say it like that but yeah, that’s what I meant.” It not only shows that you’re listening but it shows a comprehensive internalization of what the other person says. Pay attention to how he repeats every question in his own words before he answers.

When you see a tripod in the corner of the shot and wish the camera user would utilise it....

Who all is here after the "Us" trailer???

Glad too see Mr. Nostrand did not fart this time. On a serious note, so happy to see this genius guy get all the awards & accolades, he so bloody well deserves each & every one of them. OSCAR you better go with him on March 4th, you very well know Mr. Nostrand does NOT play around.

Would have been hilarious if he just came in, farted and left. K&P fans will know.

I'm so in awe of his mind. He's so incredibly funny and insightful and that he's also a fan of horror delights me to no end! What a fresh unique perspective he's giving to film! I'm beyond excited to see everything he creates. His new "Us" trailer gave me chills!

Thank you for posting this.

wow he's so gracious and generous, love how he listened closely and answered thoughtfully and in great detail. An amazing lecturer but also an incredible artist. So excited to continue seeing his work!

UCLA!! Thanks for stopping by Jordan

Thank you for sharing this with the rest of us

I used to watch this back in 2018 & 2019 all the time.

This was amazing! Thank you for posting.

I love a black audience. We moan in a way that is affirming and comforting. I see you. You did well.

What an inspiration he is. He seems so eloquent and kind

I hear the understanding in this room when hes talking and I love it. Here after the Nope trailer.

UCLA this is why you hire a person from Audio/Video department. They would have brought in a tripod & camera to make the viewing experience a lot more easier to view. ✌🏽

thank you for posting this, its amazing to live in a world where I can see this

This was beautiful, thank you for sharing

This was so inspirational, thank you 🙏🏾

Thank u so much for uploading this. This was awesome.

Thank you for recording and letting the world see such an awesome Q&A session I learned so much!

What a Gem 💎. Both Jordan, and this lecture. I’m so glad I found this.

Wow I really wish I took this class but thank you for this content Professor Tananarive ❤️

I wish I had been there! Jordan Peele is so brilliant. Get Out is one of my favorite films.

Here we go again…. I’m so inspired by everything that he is and is becoming… just an amazing talent 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

watching this after i watched nope is crazy. to see how much he’s grown as a director and even to see him talking about akita and seeing the akita bike reference in nope. anyways he’s one of the best directors working today and this is an awesome class

Thank you very much for posting, this was a joy to be part of. He is a genuine powerful inspiration and his story might the most underrated story of our generation.

Thanks for the share. Much appreciated.

Thank you for posting and having the phone in landscape mode!

thank you for uploading- love from the UK:)

I know I’m late, but I’m so glad to see this. The trailer for his 3rd movie “Nope” just came out. Jordan Peele is awesome!

Awesome! Great professor (Professor Due) and great filmmaker. Thanks for sharing!

Profound and inspirational.

Thank you for posting this!

thank you for sharing this! very inspiring

It would be so great on so many levels if he won the Oscar for directing this movie.

So sweet!

This was awesome!!!

Such a great lecture. Thank you for capturing this.

thank you sm for sharing this!!

Thanks for the upload!! fantastic

Beautiful 🎉🎉 I was so scared just from the trailer... this movie was spectacular, and is even more so now that I have additional insight. Thanks!

Thanks for uploading!!

Peele and Key are such amazing people.

Wholesome content and a great Q & A

I´ve seen Denzel talking to young minds and thinkers and it was great. But Jordan reached this point in his career very early from a paralell side in the creative world with a heavy political and social statement of a movie and like a reflex built on it by talking to those young minds in that crest of the wave to strengthen the comunity and society. And I really like that he knows all the compliments of being an Oscar nominee means a whole different thing to him that mainstream media does. And accept them with grace. And also, it´s great that him and Keegan have to say they are Nerds, or biracial to get a pun or joke across. Because they got to a point that nobody raises any question or say "oh you like star wars you geek!".

Great Q & A... Those students are as sharp as a tac!

Jordan Peele👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎬🎥

Thanks for sharing!

I will correct Jordan on one thing: there are two people who have big budgets to make original content - James Cameron and Christopher Nolan. It would be outstanding for Jordan Peele, Ryan Coogler, Ava Duvernay, and a lot more black directors to get that same level of ownership, trust, and results.

Loved the talk, confused by the finger snaps.

He referenced Akira as one of his inspirations, which looking back serves true as he recreates the Akira Slide in Nope.

This a gem

This man is a genius. My biggest inspiration for making films. Not only has he made amazing horror films, but he is an amazing actor.

Wow Jordan Peele is such a cool guy and a real living genius.

Second guy had an AMAZING question.

What hurts the most is that there's a tripod right there the whole tiiiiiiime!!!

big respect for this dude

Interesting: 29:40 - Korean cinema's influence on Jordan - "HAN" - Modern Chinese cognate 恨 means more simply hatred, animosity, or resentment; the classical definition of 恨 is often translated as 'regret' or 'unfulfilled vengeance', which more closely correlates with the Korean sentiment of 'Han'.

This is great ❤

The man's a absolute Genius

I hope you post a lecture on Black Panther. That would be awesome.

I love Mr. Peele. Ironically for this to be a "film" related, should I be surprised that there is no tripod for the "camera"?

Really good lecture. can anyone compile all the referenced films lool

Just my role model 💯

That sucks for anyone that skipped that class that day

Starting with this..then rewatching get out and following it up with 7 seconds(?) what else

This dude seems like a cool dude to hang around. That was funny when the music from the phone played and he reacted to it 😂😂😂

Calling the snaps “thumb claps” is the most hilarious thing I’ve ever seen and I will be using that in my daily life from now on.... someone snaps at me or around me I will immediately respond with “STOP THUMB CLAPPING” hahahahaha

Yoooooo he’s so dope!!!! 😊💪🏾

Now THIS is a lecture! Please, next time, tripod or mono pod for capturing this excellent talk!

Cool, college students!!!!!! I love it

Hello, Can you tell me what was the student saying around the 15:00 mark? What was the question if there was any?

Noiice!

that's amazing

Renaissance man indeed. Humble as well

It's crazy. The guy that stars and writes key and peele scripts directed get out. Just damn.

14:10 he did it

Talk to you about life choices.. CONSEQUENCES

Camera person, were you doing cartwheels? Just joking...thanks for the upload.

He gave a shoutout to Straight Outta Compton and said it made him believe he could actually do this film. 💯😎

“We’re put to the test 24/7”

That's tight

Bro looks like he just ate a free continental breakfast

Oscar winning writer

His goldberg impression was actually spooky good.

It's so weird. I'm so used to seeing him co star on Key and Peele. Goes to show you never know what potential someone has

now I'm waiting for that new Star Wars.

I wish I liked horror. Really need to see his movies but I'm scared. But I watch all of his comedy clips with Key.

9.09 question is basically 'is the progress being made in the equality of representation of race and culture in storytelling a fad or are Americans finally coming to their senses and making progress'. Somehow questioning the permanence of this feels an awful lot like questioning the legitimacy of a society depicting an accurate and diverse representation of black people, black culture in television, film and storytelling. Is progress just a fad... I mean seriously! not if you treat the issue - lack of representation and misrepresentation of culture, race (and sex if you want to digress)with the respect it deserves. Since when are black stories and storytellers less interesting, less hilarious, less unique, less fierce, less kind, less dynamic, less passionate, less romantic, less human? since never! We want to see them and we want them to be written by people who know what they're fucking talking about.

OMG!!!

This man is a genius, Get Out was the most original and intelligent film I’ve seen on the big screen. I wasn’t familiar with his work so started watching a few of Keele and Peele on RU-vid. The ingenuity of this man was already there for every to see and hear. Mr Peele, you are going to knock Me Spielberg off his rusty throne. Respect

Thank you #Black1st

One of my favourite writers has a RU-vid channel? I guess the arc of history is towards justice after all.
