The actress of Lorenzo and Giuliano's mother did a really good job with that scream. I am italian and I saw the italian version on tv, and they didn't dub that, they just kept that scream. It was really powerful and gave me goosebumps
@@marco.livio.travels no questo è molto più potente secondo me! Perché il grido di Catelyn è successo dopo che c'era stato tutto il casino, mentre il grido di Lucrezia, anche se sapevamo già cosa sarebbe successo, è stato quello che ha rotto la tensione e dato inizio alla scena, era inaspettato ed è successo nel completo silenzio
Sarah Parish is Amazing! I didn't know anything about her until this Awesome show & her performance as Lucrezia stood out for me. I have since watched her in numerous roles she has played. Medici is still my favorite though.
The way Guilano's mother keeps asking if they left him after he gets stabbed. My heart just broke 😭 It's obvious they can't go back out without facing certain death , but her mothers love overrides even the basic survival instinct.

How its sad that he gave the dagger his elder brother to protect himself. I really cried alot. R.I.P. Giuliano de' Medici❤
I never realized this: Guiliano warned him that there were rumors of a possible attack and Lorenzo not listen to him, but then, when they were being attacked, Guiliano managed to get away from Francesco and grab a knife, he could have tried to figth back but he decided to run and give it to his brother because he knew that the main target was Lorenzo. Guiliano sacrificed himself for and to protect his brother, and Lorenzo had to live the rest of his life with that on his conscience
@littlemouse7066 true, Guliano was caught by surprise and had no chance to defend himself, he died on the spot from stab wounds to the head. Lorenzo was wounded in the neck but he managed to escape and hide inside the church
Historically Giuliano de Medici was far from helpless. He was the best fighter between the two, but had been wounded few days before, falling from the horse while hunting. The conspirators went to pick him up at home, to convince him to attend mass. Giuliano almost always wore the mail shirt, and carried his hunting knife, but in his condition, that day, that weight bothered him, so he had neither. One of the conspirators, as they met, hugged him, to make sure of that.
I would like to add something to this story. I remember watching a documentary about Lorenzo de' Medici when I was in middle school with a lot of written reference of book of that time and I dare say that what happened in reality was even more frighting. Lorenzo didn't notice that his brother was dead before entering the sacristy as he was scorted by some people. He would scream his brother's name but no-one would tell him what happened. As soon as he could get out of that room people formed a shield so that he couldn't see his brother's body as it was unrecognisable with all the blood and stab wound. So the people heard him screaming fom his brother "where is Giuliano ?!"a lot before he could break through that shield and see his deceased brother. He really loved his brother so that's why his revenge will be so scary. I haven't watched all this series only a few scenes. I don't judge it since it is difficult indeed to recreate perfect history events but I wanted to add this anecdote because I find it particularly emotional. Also English is not my language I'm Italian and the documentary I've watched was made by Alberto Angela that's why I trust the sources.
For English not being your language you wrote very well! Thank you for this extra information from what happened in real life. I very much appreciate it!
Your English is very good. Thanks for the extra info. It sounds heartbreaking, what happened to Giuliano. An extra fact, it seems Lorenzo was never the same after Giuliano's death. His paranoia and anger issues increased and his health steadily declined. It's not hard to imagine he still mourned his brother and felt guilty over his death. Giuliano was even reinterred to be buried with Lorenzo after his death.
Брат, я русский . И если ты сможешь перевести мои слова, то я на протяжении 3х лет порой пересматриваю это видео и просто рыдаю...Этот момент для меня даже не переплюнула красная свадьба ..❤
Lorenzo's true soul also died with Giuliano's death. Its hard watching Lorenzo in season 3 while thinking the season2-Lorenzo. His dreams, his visions, were buried with Giuliono, leaving him as a greedy, ambition, and ruthless man. I started to cry in the very last scene when he said to Sandro "All those years ago..." and all I thought were He, Giuliono, and Sandro shared laughed, drunk, and tried to make a better world😭
Not since the Red Wedding have I seen a scene this beautifully shot with all its heart-stopping brutality. The gorgeous music helps make this one of the most stunning and emotionally impactful season finales in TV history.
thats exactly what was in my mind the whole time i was watching the pazzi scheme. Especially the part where theyre all in the Medici home. The mothers scream was also very catelyn esque
Okay so I think this scene is heartbreaking and SO well acted by all of them, but also.. can we talk about how badass Clarice was hitting Francesco over the head with that heavy candelabra-thing? I can’t help but laugh every time she just goes “YEET”😂
I still cannot get over how amazing this scene is. The music is perfect, the acting from the mother and her screaming sends a chill down my spine. Not to mention the choreography and the crowds reaction are really good. Overall an epic scene.
Kitty E I forgot about the Pazzi Medici scene in Assassin’s Creed 2 but I still expected it because it was a Bradley James character. Still, pretty sad scene. P.s. This series and Merlin with Bradley James are the most underrated series on Netflix
@@JayRacer Agreed. The music in Medici is awesome. There are some mediocre scenes but this one is almost perfectly set up. The music, the acting and the choreography are really good!
Kitty E I loved Season 1 & 2. I can’t pick which is better because they’re both uniquely beautiful. I did like 3 as well but I don’t think it’s as strong as the first 2. Perhaps because it was a man abandoning his principles for most of the season? Plus auctioning off his daughter to the equivalent of a 15th century fratty boy was a bit cringe. Yes, the music is amazing! I want to use the theme song for a vintage Ferrari highlight reel.
Kitty E Exactly! Instead of pursuing his lifelong goal of establishing a Florentine Republic, he went on a mission of retribution against those who murdered his brother. Though I suppose it was foreshadowed by Jacopo de’ Pazzi (Sean Bean) at the conclusion of Season 2.
Definitely one of the saddest and most heartbreaking scenes I’ve ever seen in a show. I loved his character so much. You can really feel the pain and tension from his whole family reacting to his death.
The fact that they killed him in a place of worship assassinating him from the back is a new low it wasn't a fair fight I think people who kill others like this are cowards and should be ashamed of themselves
They got the damnatio memoriae for this. Pazzi's name was completely deleted from history books, archives, buildings and damned for eternity in Florence. Their properties were confiscated and given to the government. Pazzis were exincted after this act. God bless Medici. Think about this: without his father dying, Giulio would never have become Pope.
@@MightyDoomerChannel Ironically, they are some of the characters of a series and I, as many others, talk about them and remember them as they watch the episodes thinking about how much I/we abhor them.
Sean bean must be one if the best actors, in this you genuinely thinks his evil and hate him when his on screen But in game of thrones you want him to be your dad
@@salifyanji2893 Sean Bean actually was pretty much type cast for a long time as a villain, so this is right up his alley. It's also part of why he's died SO MANY TIMES onscreen 😂.
The way Lucrezia screams just breaks me everytime. I can't imagine the pain she felt seeing her son murdered right in front of her and not being able to do anything. Long live the Medici!
Although I'm Italian, I don't usually follow the Italian series, but this gives me great pride! The Medici is a masterpiece for me and this scene is proof of it. I still remember the tension I felt the first time I saw it even knowing how it was going to end, knowing the story. Keep this tension and this anxiety, arouse chills even when you know what is going to happen is something that not all film adaptations of historical events can do.
A masterpiece. The acting, lighting, music, use of slow motion, and the angles they chose were all amazing. The mother’s scream piercing through the silence, the top down view of everyone pouring out of the church and fanning out? Incredible.
Pazzi: Lorenzo Medici could become a tyrant and take over Florence if he wanted to, let's kill him and his family before he gets the chance! Lorenzo: [Embraces tyranny and takes over Florence as a result of his brother's death] Pazzi: *Surprised choking Pikachu*
You can't handle the truth The Medici's were popular with the public but were hated by and slandered by nobility because they were originally wool merchants who climbed the social ladder. Their ability to become rich nobles threatened the concept of being born into nobility.
You can't handle the truth Eventually, like all rich people, power corrupted them. The Pazzis were no better or worse. They also lost favor with the people.
But think about how happy must Sean Bean be that it wasn't him this time at last. I swear, he looked downright incredulous in this scene that it wasn't him getting hacked to pieces. Now that he's passed the Torch of Cruel and Sudden Death to Bradley James, the curse is broken. (It would be really nice to see Bradley in a role where he stays alive once in a while though.)
In did me too i won't be surprised if he do cast again in a new series with the same concept in the previous one's he had in the past where he died then its expected that he will do in it eventually
My younger brother and I watched this on Netflix last night and while watching the part where Giuliano gives Lorenzo the dagger, I started tearing up. I turned to my little brother as Lorenzo started screaming and I broke😂😭I don’t know what I’d ever do if I lost my brother like that...
I THOUGHT THE EXACT SAME THING. when I first saw this scene I was sobbing like a baby and then later on, while rewatching the show I was like tf man??? I watched him die in Merlin, now I’m Medici, give the man a break
idkwhattocallmeself same. Arthur’s death cemented the allure of the whole show which in my mind was the very clear connection the cast members had with each other. The most frustrating part is that Arthur FINALLLYYY knew who had been helping him and then POOF, dead. They should have done one more season.
I remember how chilling this scene was and especially when the Pazzi’s planned it as well. Even their own hired mercenary jumped ship bc he refused to spill blood on holy grounds.
I literally sat and sobbed watching this today. I had a bad feeling he was going to die but gosh...he still tried to protect Lorenzo and my heart broke.
I just finished watching it and this scene was so heartbreaking. I'm so glad that they didnt stabbed him in the head ( in real life that's what happened plus the 19 stabs)
@@melanieurich1748 I wasn't trying to be rude, but we know from historical sources that Giuliano was really handsome for the time and had a lot of affairs with many women, while Lorenzo was of a "more common" beauty that decayed very fast due to a sickness in the Medici family (their father, Piero, was affected by it)
In the reality was more rough and macabre, Giuliano has been stabbed so many times, that his body was literally floating in a lake of blood. The answer of Lorenzo was rough and brutal, with the total extermination of the Pazzi's family.
Yeah alot people bad mouthed lorenzo for becoming a ruthless tyrant after this but I don't blame him one bit because the pazzi started it and the medici finished it so revenge sometimes needs to be carried out
Reaam he did a Q&A and posted it on RU-vid. Somebody asked why he always dies in everything he’s in. He said “I don’t know, I don’t write the script. Perhaps I’ll write the script.”
Me: (remembering vaguely about Guiliano's murder in the church because of a class from 4 yrs ago) my gut is telling me to forget friendship and screw the Pazzis My roommate: geez Sandra that's not a way to bring about peace *this scene plays* Roomie: 😲😲😭😭😭 Me: I knew it... should've killed them when you had the chance
TheGreatFaggles yea that was sad especially when it was going slow motion and then went to reality when he was getting stabbed and his with their mother screaming out
I am not a very big fan of the show. It can be overdramatic, a little too cheesy for my taste, the story isn't always great, the characterdevelopement can be flipflopping around and I, as someone who loves history, think it focuses too much in details I don't care for while ignoring those I consider more interesting. BUT: I am not gonna lie, this scene, this entire episode as a matter of fact, is one of the best from any series I have ever seen. For me this episode can even hold up with game of thrones episodes like the red wedding. I love Florence, I love history and I most especially love the history if the medici. This episode is perfection through and through and unites all those tings I love. It is pure genius. The assassination attempt, the way Vespucci looks at his blood-stayned hands and realises what he has done, how Lorenzo shows up at the Palazzo della Signoria, the speech he gives, the way the mobs anger tears down the Pazzi palace and everything they have ever created or owned in Florence, how Jacopo doesn't even care that he dies and is glad about how much damage he's done, how Lorenzo has to learn not to become like his enemies and how Boticelli pains "Spring" as a symbol that this is not the end but rather the beginning of something new... Those moments are just plain brilliant. I might not watch the entire season again, but I'll certainly research this episode over and over again.
I can only imagine how much more terrifying it was to have actually been there witnessing Giuliano's murder/assassination. You've also gotta be a really royal turd to kill a child (no matter how old) in front of his/her parents and in a religious place. Continued rest in peace Giuliano de Medici!
Ubisoft really messed up big time, not siding the Assassins with the assassins here. You would think they'd actually make the assassins assassins for once. But no, apparently whoever's against the Pope must be good guys.
Seriously why does Bradley James character always dies in his medieval series this is the second time i watch him in a TV series which is a midieval story concept after merlin he has important wonderful role one of the main key characters of the the show yet he always dies in it the next time he has other series with same concept as these previous two that i had watch swear i will expect and won't be surprised if his character in it dies too like how Sean Bean does in most of series and movies
The fact that they planned this hit during mass, and the holiest mass of the year at that, is incredible. This is why God sent Jesus to die and rise the way he did. Yet, even so, many treat his sacrifice like it meant nothing, and this is proof of it.
There is a big mistake..1478, when this occurred, the duomo didn’t have a marmor covered facade. They build it after 1880. So the shot from above doesn’t make sense
