Plutarch played Snow like a fiddle as gamemaker. He posed himself as someone just as cunning as Snow, just as ambitious, just as in control; a man equally if not more ruthless. It swept Snow off his feet, made him lower his guard and open to suggestion. The acting here is superb.

Plutarch was also furiously ambitious. He straight up betrays Snow. He’s betraying Snow right now, and Snow had no damn idea. This was a good scene. He kept persuading Snow to wait. Snow could have done it, but he tell into Plutarch’s trap 🪤. Beautiful.

He was still Head Gamemaker, though, which meant that at the end of the day, he was still under Snow's order.

PSH as an actor had a real skill for making trivial or even mundane dialogue seem so fucking captivating…god damn he was so beautifully brilliant.

He was a master at reading people, and he sells Snow on the idea that he isn't so that Snow keeps some sense of superiority while also being able to write off the escalation the plays are causing as miscalculations. He presents himself as still competent and savvy enough to listen to despite those "slip-ups". In Snow's case, this meant talking to him on the same level, whereas many of Snow's underlings didn't present the same cerebral competence Plutarch offered him. I am pretty sure he had Coin's number too, even though Coin played her more ruthless traits much more low-key than Snow. Plutarch knew the arch Snow would take, and even without Katniss probably was contemplating the right move and time to deal with her.

This was suggested to me just after I read that Sutherland died… RIP and we won’t forget you

"Sir. We've lost power."

It's very interesting that Snow didn't suspect Plutarch of treachery considering how much they think alike. But maybe that's why he didn't see it coming because if he saw himself and Plutarch as one of the same, then he believed he wouldn't dare associate himself with the other districts. Further proving by Snow's viewpoint on the other districts versus the capitol in the prequel.

You see how Plutarch even with the side he's on could've easily turned into Gaul or Coriolanus Snow, but he didn't. Not just because he's so much smarter than both and not sadistic either, but because he recognizes that with both good and evil, there's a fine line that while 100% peace can never truly be achieved, compromises to assure a legit peace that could possibly LAST is the preferable goal. Plutarch has a patience, compassion and meticulousness that allows him to plan, think and then execute his schemes to incredible success way more than anymore else and thus why he ultimately wins in the end: by establishing both an authority and foot-hole in diplomatic interest that even if not satisfying everyone, can at least be far more acceptable than what came before under any circumstances too.

"Galaxy-brained" is normally an insult, but in the case of Plutarch Heavensbee it's the absolute truth. This dude was a lot more a *chessmaster* than a gamemaster, and he completely and totally buffaloed Snow. He was making suggestions that sounded like they'd acheive Snow's aims while in fact their carefully hidden purpose was to do the opposite. Snow knew politics and was a ruthless, cunning tyrant, but he made a truly fatal error: He trusted Plutarch when the guy was *already* a rebel, and Snow walked smack into his trap. That's what happens when you get high on your own supply. And he saw Coin for what she was a mile away. Snow was very late to that party, too.

He still has a wrong philosophy as seeing the districts as unruly children to be managed and controlled with brutal means and by his presidency, he is shown to be a snake.

Like to have a backstory about Plutarch, since his family was very prestigious among the capitol. What turned him?

Just heard the news that Donald passed away earlier today. RIP sir, you were a beloved person and inspiring actor! ❤🕊️

I never read the books, but from the end of the series , it seems to imply that he’ll be a power behind the throne under President Paylor’s Presidency

He was in Twister, too

We were so lucky to get Philip Seymour Hoffman in these movies. He brings such depth and personality to a character that could otherwise be overlooked. One of the greatest actors ever

Rest in peace to the two flawless actors portraying these characters. Impeccable performances as always.

Rest in power you two incredible men

Plutarch is a masterful double agent, but he also reminds me of Dumbledore. "I'm going to create a Grand Plan that relies on information that only one or two other people know, and which relies on an extremely long series of lucky breaks to keep alive the one young person I most need to stay alive. If any part of my complex, fragile plan goes wrong, that person will die and the whole plan will fall apart. But this will TOTALLY work because . . . plot armor!"

I mean I would assume he knew their was a high chance it wouldn’t succeed which is why he put as much ducks in order as he could. He assembled Allies in the tributes and others to help their odds some, he got himself into the highest position below Snow to influence as much as possible. So he probably realized the odds weren’t in their favor but played the game masterfully to give them a better chance.

i mean, not really. establishing katniss as the mockingjay certainly was his preferred-outcome, but he seemed pretty prepared for her death, too. i dont think it's unfeasible to imagine he wouldve positioned her as a martyr (given a lot of the things he says regarding her sway on the people, and what coin ultimately ends up attempting). nevertheless though, he did a lot more to ensure katniss' safety than dumbledore did harry's. as the comment below u mentions, he and haymitch meticulously-curated allies within the tributes who were prepared to protect katniss and peeta in the arena (we even see this in the case of the female morphling and mags - who literally sacrificed their lives for them). likewise, a lot of his manipulation of snow revolved around stalling for time - the film immediately establishes that snow wanted to kill katniss for her transgressions the second she inspires enough hope in the districts for the rebellion to start to pick up. everytime this happens, plutarch steps in to convince snow to be patient and go along w whatever smear-campaign he proposes for katniss, instead - buying time to get her out and make snow lose track of her before he has the opportunity to execute her

It's always so interesting when movies and tv shows have social commentary like this. Because you can look at the real world and it's the exact same thing. Yet we don't even notice/ care when it's right in front of us.

god I miss Philip Seymour Hoffman. He always elevated everything he was in, even if it was already good without him, he would raise it higher.

Plutarch reminds me of Steve Bannon so much lol.

philip seymour hoffman was such a brilliant actor

And now i realise how much of Donald Sutherland's heavy breathing they take out in post 😂

Two legend like...this is amazing.

I just love to see two of the greatest actors of all time sharing screentime and saying a bunch of sci-fi nonsense

Is Snow’s monologue about the extermination attempt of mockingjays in the movie or is that a deleted scene?

Katniss in the books makes mention of how the mockingjay came to be; as mentioned, they were the result of an instrument of espionage flipped on the Capitol, and so the rebels adopted the mockingjay as a last finger to them.

President Snow was probably thinking to himself, "You're mine now Ms. Everdeen, you to Lucy Gray."

Plutarch played Snow so well. And Snow is no slouch.

Snow, he's more than brilliant actually.

Plutarch is... Phenomenal.

Not in the book. That's why this is a deleted scene. It doesn't make any sense.

Mr. Hoffman was so talented!

Snow must have been impressed by Plutarch after reading his book "Parallel Lives".
