Yes. Every German class I've ever been in required that if we had to count with or signify quantity with our fingers, our thumb was always 1. So to signify three it would be your thumb and first two fingers. I have no idea why this is, I just know it is. And it seems to be taught in quite a few German classes this way. So when the spy holds up three fingers, but not his thumb as one of them, he is using an English signal, not a German one as he is trying to pretend.

In the Godfather scene, I always thought the train was just a tension-building device, but now realise it was part of the story too. You can see Michael's eyes speed up as the train goes by; he realises that the sound of the train will obscure the noise of a gunshot, and he only has a few moments to decide whether to go through with it, before the train, and his opportunity, passes by.

As a native German speaking I see the Inglorious Basterds scene a bit different. The SS Officer knew that Hicox wasn't German. Michael Fassbender's accent is anything but German, no matter where you live. The officer knows that. When Hicox is ordering differently the 3 glasses it's not the point where the SS-Officer realizes that he is not German, but knows for sure that he is not. The heavy silence then is because he knows what will come next and that there is no escape of that situation. One of my favourite movie scenes overall, because I thougt the same as everybody else in this scene "what strange accent is this?!"

@kkfoto

5 жыл бұрын

Perhaps the accent is obvious for a native speaker. But this is the movies. Let's pretend the spy nailed the accent perfectly -- or maybe something's a little bit off, but not enough to blow his cover. But then he slips on a subtle cultural difference: the peculiar German way of ordering "three". That's the whole point of the scene. The script is very clear about that, later on. "The Englishman gave himself away. How'd he do that? He ordered three glasses. We order three glasses. That's the German three. The other looks odd. Germans would and did notice it."

He was trying to figure out their intentions and their purpose. It was ultimately the finger ordering that confirmed that he was dealing with foreigners and thus spies. It could have been any officer that intervened. But it was the SS officer from the restaurant scene earlier who was setup to be sort of a right hand to the genius Hans Landa. The subtly of the scene was to show that the SS officer lacked the charisma of Landa which would have resulted in the capture of all of them rather than the mutually assured destruction that was rendered.

skyphab exactly Hans Landa was the same way. He always knows the truth but let’s the people go on having their fun thinking they’re in control, when really it’s the German soldiers who are in control and playing their games.

As a history and language person, I always loved the bar scene in Inglorious Basterds. Spies and Intelligence have always been aspects of war, but with so many significant booms in technology in the early parts of the 20th century, it has really become a part of education now. And Tarantino's use of the scene and, likely that knowledge, is my favorite on the list. During the war, if an allied spy was under suspicion, a lot of the time German officers (often spies or counter intelligence themselves) would take the suspect out to dinner, because there are a lot of dining habits that are specifically German as opposed to French or, especially, British. For example, Germans never switch the hand using a fork; it stays in the left hand throughout the meal when the right hand cuts. Americans typically will cut out several pieces, put the knife and fork down, and pick up the fork with the right hand. Hands used for drinking glass as well as hand gestures when speaking are things that most would never think about, but as the scene showed, might as well have been giant neon signs over them saying, "Not German."

I love how that Godfather scene is set up. But what's cooler is, that subway rides by earlier in their conversation. Michael notices it for a moment. When he goes to get the gun from the toilet he comes out and pauses. This pause is him deciding to wait for the train to come by again before he shoots. To come out blazing would be a Sonny thing to do. Michael, being more calculated, would have waited for the shots to be muffled by the passing train. He as a soldier probably also wanted to face his enemies instead of shooting them in the back. It's cool because the scene revolves around the personality of the character. He does what his character would do instead of what an action character would do.

@ThejollyFrenchman

Exactly. This is the moment where we discover who Michael really is. When he steps into the bathroom we assume that he's a naive, frightened youngster, unsure of himself, but when he steps out and kills those men we discover that he's a thinker, a cold and calculating schemer who will wait for the perfect moment to make his move, that he's his father's son. This is a glimpse of what is to come, when he lures the other bosses and his brother in law into thinking that he has made peace, before murdering them whilst they're off guard. It's a brilliant character moment and it only takes a few seconds to reveal all of that. That's why The Godfather is so fantastic.

Another tell, though a little more subtle, was the way we eat. When Americans cut their food with a knife, they typically have the knife in the right hand, fork in the left, and when they are done cutting they will set down the knife, move the fork to the right hand and proceed to eat. Germans do not do this... the knife stays in the right, and the fork stays in the left.

He's one of the people that produces them and gets paid very well doing that. The other works in tv production. There are lots of jobs in this field and good schools teach technical production. Personally, nothing I'd be interested in doing but I'm glad there are people doing this stuff. Most of the Mechanical Engineering jobs turn out to be HVAC (wow, that sounds boring) and physics doesn't offer a lot of employment.

Great video!! My heart stops every time when Fassbender orders three glasses. I did not know why on my first viewing, but I knew he gave himself away when he put up his hand. Perhaps Tarantino's best scene. Great analysis all around on the other scenes, too. Love it!

One aspect of that Godfather push-in that always interested me (and which the narration doesn't mention) is that in pushing in, the camera slowly eliminates everyone else, even the people in the far background - and that tells me not only "watch Michael" but also _Michael is completely alone_. He has no backup, nothing to help him, and if he's experiencing indecision, every split-second of it makes his situation more dangerous. It's all in or die. We knew that already, but the visual cutting-off highlights it in a visceral, emotional way and makes it incredibly tense. That feeling of "alone surrounded by enemies" becomes almost unbearable in those few moments. Fucking hell, this film is a masterpiece.

I think Pacino is seen to use his eyes unrealistically/in a way that is not usual is on purpose. This is the moment he decides to perform his first murder under the order of his family’s business, something he had previously disagreed on. To murder someone is not an everyday decision people have to make and the movement of his eyes, I think, accurately displays the anxiety and difficulty of the decision.

It's slightly unrealistic I guess, but you have to remember that it's not just a murder, as serious as that is - what's going on in his mind is the massive conflict of realisation that from this moment onwards, his life will never be the same. He's in the room, the two guys are there, he's got the gun, his next move is fight or flight - pure adrenaline... He sits down with Kay at the start of the film, during the wedding, and tells her "this is not me". Well in that moment, as the camera pushes in, and the train sound builds, it's ALL going through his mind (as well as the thought of murdering two people). Back to the eyes - speak to policemen, people involved in law enforcement, or just watch a few episodes of Cops or whatever - you often hear them say to a suspect "you're very jittery, you can't stand still, your eyes are darting, you're giving me the feeling that you've something to hide/you're nervous". So while it may seem unrealistic to someone sitting in front of a screen watching a movie who has never been anywhere close to a position where you're about to commit double murder, it might actually be quite realistic for a guy who pledged never to become like his father.

I thought the same initially, and while Tarantino never confirmed it, there's an awesome write-up on reddit where a user details all the reasons why Hellstrom knew. LIke the book he was reading was one published by Hecox, he recognized Stiglitz, he knew Hecox was going to be largely naive to any war-time cinema, etc. etc. If it does have any truth, I'd say that Tarantino is brilliant.

The shot at #3. 7:04 If you are quick, you can see Bridget von Hammersmar widen her eyes when he first puts the three fingers up. She's the first quick clue that the shit is about to hit the fan, and does an excellent job of portraying that with her body language for the rest of the scene.

I think Hannibal Lector meeting Clarice belongs on here

The expertise you showed by dissecting that CTHD brush stroke scene got me. Subbed.

I think Pacino's eye movement was exactly how it should have been, realistically I think it hit it as well. He isn't just trying to make a decision, he is making a life and death decision-he's nervous, he doesn't want to make eye contact with the people he is about to kill, the train/subway is to express how is mind is on a fast track and will soon be coming to a STOP. If you look close enough, you can even see Pacino's nose beginning to twitch, and his chin, as if he is about to cry.

It's the first look we get at the core ruthlessness of Michael. It is a great scene but not for the reasons in this video.

The selection of examples is well chosen, and your explanations are so right. Pointing at the camera movements and especially the use of sound helps us to discover what is going on in the scenes and understand what the director is doing there. It is striking how the sound in 127 hours adds so strongly to the bloody visuals and make you cringe!

Tarantino's my favorite director and he's written a simular scene (or simular beat) that another director did even better.

Also, in the original script that scene was the cold opener of the film. It would of worked way better that way.

John Milton Yeah I didn't mean it was all for nothing in that sense. It was definitely for something, and that something is one of the best moments of the movie. I just meant for nothing in the sense that Dennis Hopper basically forced Christopher Walken into shooting him, in an attempt to protect his son by not giving away his location. The location that also happens to be conveniently posted to his fridge 5 feet away. :P You're right though, the post-it note doesn't really seem like Tarantino writing. That cold-open would have been amazing though. They wouldn't of even needed that post it note had it been that way. They could've showed that scene in the beginning without it, and you would've known from then on, somehow they were going to catch up to Terrence later in the movie, and that it wouldn't end well. Would've added a sense of underlying tension when they're all happy on the run with the drugs. Also would've made the scenes with Terrence and his dad bittersweet, because you'd know his dad was going to die later.
