Justin Timberlake lip-syncs along to "All These Things That I've Done" by The Killers in this scene from the Richard Kelly film SOUTHLAND TALES. This clip was uploaded in 720p high quality stereo sound.
From about 5:09 on, Timberlake does a fantastic job portraying a vet (likely with a TBI and PTSD) coming down from a trip and crashing right into depression. And he does it right into a camera, which you can brush off all you want but is actually incredibly difficult to do (sincerely anyway).
As a plain old civilian who still spent way too long trying to self-medicate his trauma away, I love this scene and particularly that moment so much for *the exact same reason you described.* Seriously, when I started seeing a shrink, I even showed her that moment. The shift in his eyes, the way the music fades out but everyone else just keeps on dancing as if they can still hear it perfectly fine, that final fleeting glimpse of a smile flashing across his face just as it all starts to fade... J.T. might just be this generation's most criminally underrated actor and I will personally fistfight anyone who says otherwise.
This movie is so criminally underrated like you have to pay attention and follow it and the cast is so amazing watching it now. The Rock was not the big movie star he is now and all of the SNL alums. Also still incredibly revenant in the year 2023.
Thank you for pointing this option out. This was a polarizing film in response to the post 911 fundamental shift America experienced. Very underrated IMO.
I got my copy on Monday, and watched the CANNES cut yesterday. It is a bit rougher as far as most of the musical sequences go, but otherwise it does do a slightly more coherent job of outlining the plot. I am glad i experienced it.
As a soldier who did the whole 20 years on 2001-2021, I gotta tell you🥲. It feels just like way. You’re just a damn husk. I was 17. I retired young. I never intended to live. drugs numb existence
this scene makes sense if you see it as the director speaking directly to iraq war vets in the audience. It magnifies the shallow dudebro soldier's fantasy, mid-2000s...with empathy but also cruelly sardonic, with the end vibe being "yea you're just distracting yourself from the reality that you're a tool, a husk, and everything you think is cool is soulless trash" It's like the polar opposite of a USO show.
@@hometownhero2500 I heard so many stories about soldiers freaking out when Rogue One was screening at bases, not a perfect movie at all but it just erupted everything so many guys in the shit were really feeling about their choices. They saw the empire and the scenes in Jedha City, a literal mineral extraction occupation and saw themselves as the villains
@@hometownhero2500 i would never be an american soldier (despite VERY briefly joining 13FOX before going awol), but every single generation of my family below the border has known nothing but war since the spaniards, and even then my tribe defeated spain and the aztecs militarily every time...they were the first indians to steal horses and learn to fight mounted, and our name literally means "Savage" in nahuatl. My dad's war stories blow the water out of every vet and vet dad Ive talked to in the States, his crew was on top of the cia's mex shitlist between 72 and 74. . in the mountains they chewed through special forces like the fucking ninja turtles. never wore body armor or helmets. he got shot in the dick by jungle operators and STILL made them retreat with a FAL. he saw a teenage girl machinegun an entire death squad before they could extract from a village where they took out a HVT, and the old women there burned alive the two surviving soldiers with gasoline. my great grandad and aunts and uncles in guanajuato and morelos were in Zapata's army during the mex revolution. My great great great aunt was Porfirio Diaz's keymaster and spirtual medium and she psyoped him into escaping the country where he died in europe. and I bet dollars to donuts that the US stole part of operation overlord from one of their ops with pancho villa when they built fake american airbases to capture planes. My mother side of the family is Irish and Irish fighters joined my family to fight in mexico against the US. When you take away the most badass american operator's billions of dollars of technical advantage, air support, NVGs, etc etc, jungle people and mountain people eat them ALIVE. They got a saying down there, "they call em "Green" Berets cuz they New at this" The difference between a Warrior and a Soldier is exemplified by my family.
I love how the soldiers, war and pain is all taking place inside a GAME ARCADE, it is all games for those who build it, but the pain they bring is most real thing.
Well, movies looks kinda weird, but in this scene we can see some of Justin Timberlake acting skills. He's like 21 years old in this movie but he done a great job in this role. He's a good actor and he just need to wait the role that will change his acting career and make it more successful. Heath Ledger's role at the Dark Night or Jared Leto's role at the Dallas Buyers Club are great examples for my point about Justin.
@ZodiacBryan Same with Black Snake Moan. I think the way the movie was advertised really hurt it; they made it look like smutty garbage and that hurt the film because it's actually a very well made, genuine film.
@ShadowNeverDies I like how u didn't back up anything u said. How was it "terribly made?" It was actually a GREAT "thinking film," it's just that they basically explained the whole thing at the end, although there WAS a lot of symbolism & such. The beauty in this film is the fact it's satire. The film is a mockery of American life in general & I believe film as well. The movie tricks you into thinking it's bad when it's really superb.
Bordel comme j'aime ce p.... de film. Un O. V. N. I, mais d'une folie pure. Un film culte sur la scene du film underground. Pas très connu, seulement par les fans ou les fous comme moi.
Can anyone tell me what Justin Timberlake asks Martin when he passes him the bag? It sounds like "is it cod" or god maybe? Love this wierd film and Moby did a great soundtrack on this.
long story short the movie (and book) are about Zionists coming to L.A. and attempting to take over the u.s. amd world and the guy with the skull cap on his head is the guy sent to destroy the zionists/fascists
This is a deleted scene, from a great film... JT is filth I think this scene.. I got soul but I.. A mutation to fight against deadpkol. I she is eternal but no Powers, so she is against modernism. I'm Martyn John lloyd and a Lloyf Lazenby
