SIX SHOOTER (2004) | dir. Martin McDonagh | Academy Award Winner Best Live-Action Short 

"Ah, sheep."

The young guy actor really delivered. Would love to see him in a longer role of a McDonagh film.

The fact this all happens at 11 o'clock in the morning somehow makes it funnier.

Martin McDonagh's character portrayals are soooo amazing

@ 5:56 you can hear the guns clink in the trash bag when it lightly hits the seat as he’s passing by...

"......he knows what dressage is" absolutely floored me.....as did this whole mini masterpiece. Genius. Loved The Banshees.....too. MM is destined for legend status one day

This was McDonagh's directorial debut? No wonder it's so amazing!

This Academy Award-winning live-action short was appeared in the Blu-ray and DVD release of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017) as a bonus feature.

"Your general face was ratty." Oh my god i laughed out loud

9:34 Mad Eye Moody had a chit chat with Bill Weasley

Oh my God little Domnhall haha. This was fantastic. McDonagh is a master of black comedy.

Why is "Ah! Sheep!" my favorite line in this film?

i always come back to this now and then...that kid did an amazing job

If I'm not mistaken, the young red-headed man is Domhnal Gleeson, the main actor's son in likely his first role. You might recognize him now from "Ex Machina".

"Dublin...the city that never sweeps"

this psycho guy should play in an actual movie man

His movie is so real. The essence of this movie is buried inside his soul. The glimpse of reality of a broken heart 💔 😢 Great short film.

One of the most phenomenally great films I've ever seen. And McDonagh was just getting started. This will always be one of the most influential films of my life.

You can see some connection to In Bruges

"is she alive or is she dead?" "Dead...she had no head like"

9:44 A very young Domhnall Gleeson...acting alongside his real-life father, Brendan!

Saw this years ago, nice to catch up with it again.

I think this is probably McDonagh's best film, that's saying something as I adore his other work. Great performances from Brendan Gleeson and Ruaihri Conroy. You can tell McDonagh early use of dark comedy with tragedy. He 's every bit as great with dialogue as Tarantino is and love his films pack a punch. Got The Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Blu Ray and as a Bonus feature it had this fantastic short film. Well deserving of it's Oscar win for Best Short.

Martin McDonagh one of the best filmmakers out there today

The Marvin Gaye line had me cracking up.

"Aye, the gay man, the gay man, aye"

Wow this is so great amazing short movie Eccellent phenomenal for a deep friendship of one enemy who both fought for their own country Really touches heart😢

Just watched this in Film class. Thanks for making my analysis paper easier!

Saw this in a "Best Short Films" list and it's certainly up there. The glib criminal should have moved to Hollywood and became a star.

This is a masterpiece. However the ending was very sad.

Awesome story and awesome storytelling.

He sounded so ecstatic about sheep

I wanna be friends with people who understand this masterpiece!

"Best day of me fucking life, that cow exploding."

Am seeing this after seeing THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN. Did not know of this, but this came up in my feed. Wow....powerful.

An instant classic. 15 years later, and I'm still occasionally thinking about the cow with trapped wind story.

A deadly film! Perfect casting and performances.McDonagh has a dark vision of men's souls. He's Irish.There is a thread running through his works,( In Bruge, 3 Bill...,Seven Psycho...)that seems to focus on the morbid qualities of men.But then, murder and mayhem are certainly a delicious setting for high drama.

This is great.Watching it I realised Aisling O Sullivan is from my home town, Ruaidhri Conroy asked me for a light one time and I bumped into Brendan and Domhnall Gleeson on the street. Ireland really is small!🙂

Only flaw that fucked my suspension of disbelief was how silent the rabbit-killing gunshot was. It would be even funnier if he was deafened by the bang as he would be in real life. Anyway, this thing is great. The emotions this one brings up..

Friggin hysterical.

I want more short films, 20th Century Fox Searchlight Pictures.

What a great short film!

Ngl, I cried laughing at the end. Loved it XD

don't know why martin mcdonagh do not work with Rúaidhrí Conroy again after this. since every cast here, he has worked with again

The ending is the funniest thing I've ever seen

Amazing

That boy is very good.

19:30 ground beef!

Funny enough won an oscar for this

Brendan Gleeson is a Brilliant actor 👍🏻

watching this for the first time today... the kid on the train really reminds me of Barry Koeghans role in Banshees or Inisherin. Sticking true to his roots i guess.

9:45 dad and son moment 🥰

"He looks like your man off'a Bronsky Beat."

What a day... what a beautiful feckin day

'There's one fur the each of us - And I'll be following yee shortly' [BANG]

"Your man off of Bronski Beat." always gets me

A treat🎥

This is great. And so Irish!

"There's one for the each of us." I thought he meant that as in "We give each other a reason to keep on living."

Who else things that, had the Kid lived, he would have grown to be Colin Farrell's Ray in "In Bruges?" McDonagh is good.

Thanks

i cannot stop watching the train scene and cannot stop laughing uncontrollably as the crazed young man is hysterical and the writing is superb! Almost forgot the cow scene was just hilarious!

Somebody more get here by searching six shooter coyote kisses?

anyone knows where I can find the script of this shortfilm?

What a fuckin day

The best short movie ever made, that's the absolute of it

GOOD FILM

That gun is seriously noise suppressed. First I thought the bunny suppressed it. Turns out it's a quiet shootah.

Best thing ever

I 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 brendan...

very epic

WOw Domhnall Gleeson back in the days XD

Same actor playing the Guard as in The Banshees of Inisherin, almost 20 years later. And the cow expert played the priest.

Wow!

Haven’t seen this for years.

I had a feeling a dropped gun was gonna go off but I thought it was gonna be on the train.

Jimmy Somerville. That’s yer man from Bronski Beat.

It's funny my brother always wanted too be a jockey but he was too tall

Please add subtitles

Brendan had a head start on the character in Banshees.

Funny and dark short

I just don't know why he'd care about a psychopath, it made me not care about two out of three of the deaths. Maybe that was the point but tragedy/empathy is what makes black comedy funny.

Animal death is my limit on dark humour 😂 Great flick other wise

This short only invites all to see "The Guard" (Maybe my favorite film to date from Brendan Gleason)

Brendon Gleeson is an Remarkable Actor…. Remember Braveheart 1995’ 6 shooter is well done…

"Is that your dead kid? :)))"

Captain Kirk and Professor Moody 😂

Fucking. Brilliant.

This movie popped up in my dream last night! I wonder what that means

It's a crime that they didn't put the subtitles .

I always say that now. “I was here before all ye spas”

1:40 in and I wasn't expecting this to be so funny. I dont why, I just did.

they didn't put here captions for reason :)

I am not a native, and I do believe many films like this one get to be produced around the globe, and just the very fact the many people speak English makes is just so much more...'applicable'. Nevertheless, this is truly one of the best films I have ever seen. And boy oh boy, do I just love This is England, the lot!

jesus what a fucking day

First time viewing this short and thoroughly enjoyed it. MM is a writer/director w no peers able to do what he is accomplishing with his craft. Could you imagine Mr McDonagh being asked to bring his artistic style to a blockbuster franchise like Marvel or Star Wars? I highly doubt he would be interested but think how good his dark comedy could instill new life into, say, a Punisher movie. I would purchase tickets to that before they even began filming because it would be a match for the ages in my eyes. I can only assume Martin McDonagh's standards for excellence would never allow such a marriage to happen, but a girl can dream can't she? LOL. Anxiously awaiting Banshees of Inisherin, looks like something both new and classic, more from the vision of MM.

Domhnall Gleeson was very good in this acting opposite his dad!

Like a mad ting.

Step 1: watch this. Step 2: look up Bronski Beat.

Christopher Walken sent me.
