@@FrameVoyager For me, I turned on Inception after about the 3rd watch. I was blown away by it in theaters. After thinking about it and analyzing it more I came to realization it's a pretty surface-level movie with lots of absolutely phenomenal visual effects. But I totally totally understand why people love the movie.
28 Days Later for me. I enjoy watching Sunshine more, but 28 Days is very sentimental to me in that it was shot on the Canon XL2 while I was in college using the same cameras. It inspired me so much that I don't know if I'd still be doing video had I not watched the movie at the time I did.
Exactly! That's what makes his performance in Oppenheimer to me so perfect. You just are not overly distracted by him and catch a lot more of the nuance
When I watched Oppenheimer, I thought, how could he win if he wasn’t even acting? It was like watching a documentary throughout. One would forget he was not the man himself.
It’s incredibly refreshing to see praise being given to an actor who chooses to go against the celebrity culture of tv/movie stardom. I also love that this video respects Cillian’s boundaries and focuses on his career and talents, not areas of his private life, like his family. Hopefully other media folks will do the same and he’ll be able to keep the lower profile he prefers after the awards season ends. I have to say that my respect for RDJ has also grown just watching the gracious way he takes a backseat in this film and does his best at all times to support and protect Cillian as the lead actor. I was worried for a while that RDJ might be turning into a diva, but those fears have been put to rest.
I'm glad you caught on to that in the video! We tried to set that private aspect about him early on as to clue into why we never talked about his private life. Really approached the script from his perspective and happy that came through in the edit. Yeah RDJ just seems like the fun uncle in this whole thing haha
Josh Hartnett did the same in his 20s. He declined being a Hollywood hunk. He kept his life out of the public, has been making some great indie films, married an English wife and lives in England on a farm with her and their 3 kids.He has a life.☺️
RDJ is a great actor. He's doing a good job deceiving with his false humility. But, with his 6-inch lifts and overbearing personality (at times resembling Tony Stark), he does steal the spotlight and puts himself front and center. He can be seen arranging photo ops grabbing Emily for the center and pushing Cillian to the side.
@@allforgood9722 Well, hats off to you o dude “all for good” for injecting your nasty words about RDJ into a thread praising Cillian Murphy. You must be a real conversation downer with friends. The proverbial Eeyore. RDJ is an extrovert, a very funny man (did you hear him read off the tweets he’s gotten over the years? Hilarious.) He is doing great promotional work for Murphy and for Nolan since neither of them is comfortable in interviews. And Hollywood loves him. Now sit down and be quiet. We do not want your rain on our Cillian Murphy parade.
My favorite performance of Cillian Murphy is in "Breakfast On Pluto". I've been a fan of his for over a decade and it's been a thrill to watch him getting so much recognition for his impeccable performance in "Oppenheimer". He's such a humble man and deserves all of this success.
Cillian is unbelieveable in that movie. I started watching all his movies after I fell in love with his Tommy Shelby. He becomes the most beautiful woman. He is feminine without being effeminate. Every move he makes is so real as a woman. That movie could have come off as a drag queen film but he made you understand and feel for the woman he always wanted to be.
I think the biggest compliment any actor can get, is when audience forgets that there’s someone acting in front of them. Cillian did a phenomenal job with this character!
Yeah it's interesting digging into the histories of people who you know now for other roles but forget completely about their early roles. It kind of makes sense with his idea that it take 30 years to make a good actor. It's 27 years in for him and he definitely peaked.
Every time i watched the Batman trilogy, i was always fascinated by the scarecrow's character and that was due to Cilian Murphys performance. Even the small cameo in The Dark Knight rises when he was made the Judge by Bane is one of my favorite parts about the movie. Cilian Murphy has a smooth acting talent. Anything he plays, he does with ease.
I think the entire cast of Oppenheimer was incredible, a proper EVENT film with superb performances. Even though I thought the 1st act was almost obtusely slow, and the sex scene was laughably presented, the acting was just so damn good that I didn't mind wallowing in it. Cillian WILL get the Oscar (and RDJ the supporting male) I knew he was good after watching 28 days later. that scene when we're unsure if the rage has taken him and he goes totally postal on that guy - that made me uncomfortable -his eyes made me uncomfortable - that's talent! But to see just how far he's come and how incredible he is now is just amazing. I could never have seen that coming. great video!
Appreciate it! I honestly loved the whole film and more so when I watch it again. The beginning to me felt more like a Terrence Malick film at first before it kind of settles down. But yeah, haunting performance
@@FrameVoyager to me it almost felt like the film had no direction until Matt Damon turned up. Now there was plot, and momentum and a sense of urgency. I’m sure if I watched it again, knowing that the shift in pace and dynamic was coming, I would probably be more forgiving of the ponderous opening!
@@andrewdickson1556 For me it kind of served the purpose of showing the wonder and excitement surrounding groundbreaking science. Then when the military shows up is when you start to slowly see that wonder part of the film slowly slip away into stoicism. Setting it up as something beautiful and exciting in which you see the life in his eyes having found that purpose for his life. But throughout that movie, the wonder and the beauty he found in quantum physics starts to fade from his eyes as the very discovery he's helped make now becomes something that could kill all of humanity. And the music does such a good job of this with the "Can you hear the music?" at the beginning playing into that idea of science being a beautiful thing, but than it meets with the cold reality of the driving industrial effort and war machine raging in the era he find himself in. Those two seemingly compete throughout the whole film until the latter mostly overtakes it. So for me I really liked that beginning section to be able to feel that sense of discovery and excitement they felt, just for it to be slowly replaced when they realize what it meant. But I totally get why some don't like the beginnign section as well.
Great video, Cillian became my favorite actor since Peaky blinders, Since then I'm obsessed with him, and I want him to win the Oscar this year because he deserves it, and I hope they give it to him 😭🥺🥺🥺
The RU-vid algorithm is the worst. This channel’s videos should be getting a couple hundred thousand views or more with in the first few days of publish.
At end he wasn't acting he was reacting. completely emersed body and soul. After watching Oppenheimer again and again it's interesting to see how subtle he is with this but still complex emotions still projecting from his face.
It’s hard to choose his best movie because all his roles have been so different to him ..I first found him in “The Peaky Blinders” Oppenheimer was also truly amazing .. Cillian Murphy is so handsome but doesn’t mind if he is made look awful.. He doesn’t care at all.. I imagine his looks came against him in the beginning as far a “meaty” roles being offered.. He would have had to prove his worth & this he has certainly done ..He is an Icon and not even forty years old .. ❤️
Thanks! Actually using them for a lot of the stock footage effects as well in the video. But generally because that mic is so close to my face I don't have any issues with the sound. They are pretty quiet.
@@FrameVoyager I was thinking those effects with all the small diodes or RGB holes would take a lot of rendering time, but you're doing them in camera with the real TVs? very neat!
@@AnotherCameraChannel yeah! Bought like 10 CRT TV's a while back and figured out how to run HDMI to them. I just push out video clips to them, put an fx30 at different angles, and then use OBS to record. Pretty nice workflow actually. Way easier than rendering it
@@FrameVoyagerSince it took Leonardo DiCaprio that long to win an Oscar, I don't think the award is necessary to see an actor as good. If Cillian never wins one, he is still one of the best.
Oh, I totally agree. These awards don't always go to the right people but it also takes nothing away from what the other actors did. The difference being for them is that they can charge more to be on a film after winning haha
There are characters so unique who I believe wouldn't be the same if acted with another actor an example is Heath as Joker or RDJ as Iron Man and ofc Cillian as Tommy Shelby
I have that the film Sunshine was a very special film to me although it is not very popular it was really philosophical and he was a physicist in that also
Absolutely LOVE Sunshine. I think it's slowly starting to get the love it deserves. But it's probably one of my top space movies just on the way it portrays the sun, so cool.
@@FrameVoyager it was a masterpiece in my opinion the Sun symbolises God in the film and Pinbaker was a person that hides elements of misanthropy inside him and found happiness close to the Sun found God so to speak.Murphy was the logical person who hadn’t experienced the negative aspects of humanity as Pinbaker had
@@kokomanation For sure! It really is such an underrated film. Actually planning on watching it again here soon. Doing a movie a day challenge for an entire year, so need some films to watch!
@@FrameVoyager The sun is also a Fusion reactor in some sense converting hydrogen into helium and releasing energy in the form of thermal radiation so in a sense the film had some conceptual similarities with Oppenheimer which was a masterpiece by Chris Nolan
To be fair, Mark Ruffalo's performance in Poor Things gives zero fucks about winning awards. Things like nuance and subtlety don't always look the same, dude.
Yeah that wasn't a dig at Poor things more at Maestro. Poor thing had some phenomenal performances throughout that I agree had you forgetting mark ruffalo was mark ruffalo. The only thing I meant by the poor things reference is that Oppenheimer is a very reserved performance that doesn't have a lot of over the top acting moments. I'm not saying that to take away from poor things which I thought was some of Emma Stone's best work, but just pointing out how hard it can be to stand out the way cillian did with this kind of performance.
Do you experience some view drops lately? The last video I have seen from you is 3 months back “destroyed cameras in hollywood”, youtube doesnt show me anything since then, even though I am subscribed with the notify bell checked. Just wanted to check on you today and see you have plenty of new videos. What is wrong with RU-vid…
A lot of times it's hard to source high-quality video so it has a lot of digital artifacting. We add a film emulation over the top of it to soften it out so it's easier to look at than low res videos.
