He is indeed a master filmmaker but he is not exactly representative of the audience. The invisible cuts are done more than well enough to make the entire film an incredibly immersive experience, and the cinematography is next-level.

​@@KevinHarvey-YT upstaged? 1917 is entirely forgettable (and highly unoriginal) beyond the meme of trying to look like one continuous shot. That's literally all it had going for it. Q's right, it would be a lot more impressive if it were actually long takes; there are many movies with long takes and they're always more impressive for it. It's a bold move and not necessarily easy to pull off. Not only in the directing side but acting as well; if you can nail a long take and keep it engaging, it is cinematic gold. In contrast however, it does not take a lot of talent to do a whip pan edit and blend a multitude of cuts (though credit given where it's due to editing) and if that's all this movie brings to the table then okay... But a gimmick edit has got nothing on a single Tarantino movie. They're all too memorable and iconic. Whereas I couldn't cite anything besides editing and Roger Deakins' cinematography for 1917. Furthermore I can't say I've cared to revisit it🤷‍♂️ there's too many other greater war films out there with greater content, originality, strong writing, real character and memorable moments. I'm not saying it's a bad movie like say hacksaw ridge lmao but it's definitely not great. I forgot all about it until now. Meanwhile, I could never forget FMJ or Apocalypse Now for example.

Mostly using tracking shots, right? You can see 1917 done great by Kubrick in the 1950s with his Paths of Glory (often regarded as the greatest war movie of all time). I don't think there is anything extremely impressive about 1917, it's just that most of its viewers are young and don't know cinema -- and it happens to be one of the few relatively normal movies of the last 6 years, so it sticks in people's minds right now. But, I don't judge movies based on 'right now' -- I compare to all movies of history. In this way, 1917 is pretty average.

Many things can be true at the same time. 1. The movie was not filmed in 2 cuts. It was a neat effect that they did, but this should not be confused as something that is technologically miraculous. It's a stylistic choice... some people liked it, some people didn't... but that's just 1 aspect of the film. It was in my opinion a good fit, and I'm sure it was tedious at times to line things up just so. In my opinion, that was a great stylistic choice, a good execution of that choice... but that doesn't make or break a movie. 2. The "1 cut" style DID serve the movie narratively. It spoke to the relentlessness of war. Like I said, not everyone's cup of tea... but it was a respectable stylistic choice that I'm glad SOMEONE found the occasion to try, and executed it pretty well. 3. The stylistic choice of the 1-shot experience does have its drawbacks. Pacing in the movie was difficult. The director thought the tradeoff was worth it for the immersive aspect that it has to offer, and many of the audience agree, but Quentin doesn't. Oh well. It was a neat and daring experiment. It was a very unique movie. Bill Maher is hammering it home like that makes the movie objectively great, but there's PLENTY of daring experiments that didn't work. Remember how the first Hulk movie was ridiculed for the way it tried to superimpose freezeframes into real comic books to remind you the movie is reflecting a comic book story? Remember how they played with aspect ratio and ultimately it took the viewer out of the movie and now the film gets relentlessly made fun of? Well if you don't remember, the comic book thing was novel and kind of cool for about 5 minutes. It wasn't long until nobody was impressed anymore and just found it jarring and annoying. Same with the 1-shot thing, it was neat when people realized what was going on...but it was less neat when we had to sit through location transitions when the pacing is at its worst. I like the movie, but let's be honest about it... nobody remembers the movie for ANY OTHER REASON than the 1-shot aspect of it. You can't recite 1 line. You can't name 1 actor (except Benedict Cumberbatch who was in it for 5 minutes). Can you even really say what your favorite scene is (besides the climax and the ending)? That really leaves you with just the plane crash scene... which was cool for like 15 seconds. It was a cool movie. It was fine. I give it a 7 or 8 out of 10. It's interesting as a piece to study if you are a student of cinema. You can see the consequences of stylistic choices. You can see the movie's struggles with creating pacing, captivating dialogue*, and character development... but you can also see how that is baked into the cake when you pick such an inflexible framing device. *And if I were to guess... I think Quentin Tarantino is very much a dialoque guy. His movies certainly reflect that. It's pretty hard to have good dialogue when you're basically on a 24 hour hike alone through enemy territory. Not a lot of jabbering going on outside the first 20 minutes.

Tarantino here reminds me of guitarists getting mad at people who gush about the intro to Sweet Child Of Mine - like "it's not hard to do, why are you so impressed!?"

WWI was full of POC, depending on the unit, as both the British and French made extensive use of Commonwealth/Colonial forces. 1917 is largely focused on just 2 guys though, and then (spoiler) just one of those guys, so it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to discredit it on the grounds of not being diverse enough. Also, I admire Quentin Tarantino, but talking movies with him would get exhausting pretty quickly just based on all the technicalities alone.

When I buy a coat I don’t care about how many seems are on the inside or how many stitches were used, I care that it looks good on the outside and that it does it’s job. Likewise, I don’t care if there were more cuts in 1917 than it appears,, the fact is they did a great job of seamlessly tying them together to make a really immersive cinematic experience as a whole.

Anyone who likes the long invisible cut scenes should check out the movie Stuntman from the late 70s. It starts with an invisible cut shot that follows a bouncing ball from a helicopter to the ground and looks really impressive.

True, but when it comes to modern day film making having a movie that only has a few cuts and having it be a phenomenal film seems like a bigger success than the movies that have so many cuts in a span of a scene.* But in the end entertainment (and yes a whole lot of other things) is what matters when you watch a movie regardless of the way a filmmaker gets there. *I'm admittedly burnt out when it comes to superhero movies and that's all it was (obviously not all there was but a lot of what was pushed when it came to movies) for a while.** **Yes I see how silly that is considering 1917 and Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood are the films being discussed in this clip. I think the guys at Red Letter Media said it best (I'm paraphrasing) that it's always great when a Tarantino movie comes out because he's an actual filmmaker/director that has a vision and voice rather than a director who is there for a little and then it's all the CGI/special effects folks left to do what they do.

1917 may not be one of my favorites but I’ll never forget the climax and the lead up to it. When Schofield finally pushes his way far into the trenches, the camera pans and you just see all the soldiers in formation and ready to to go. Fucking goosebumps.

There was so much great about 1917 but too much was made of the long takes stuff. To me the most impressive thing about 1917 was the investment in George Mackay’s performance for so much of it which entirely worked. Schofield’s run is a classic piece of cinema and one of those scenes that will stick in my mind for many years.

Bill is confident about his ignorance. Way to learn something Bill. And way to rob the audience of a chance to learn something too.

Tarantino is thinking of it from a filming perspective, but the audience doesn't really give a shit HOW it was filmed, they only care about how it looks. And if it looks like it's been done in one giant take, then it's still reasonably impressive as a concept, especially with everything that was going on in the movie. Maher's challenge to the examples Tarantino brought up are valid.

for me the great achievement of the film is not the “visual long takes”, but the “narrative long takes”. telling an interesting story without boring moments without resorting to time lapses… is the great achievement

Watch the German movie Victoria that was released in 2015. This movie was shot in one take and it's brilliant. They did several attempts until there was a version that was good enough.

Very good movie, it tells the most traumatizing 2 hours of a girl's life. Since it is all one long take (with no cuts) you feel much more the heaviness and the emotions of that situation. It feels real, even if, when I think about the story now, what happens is not very likely, especially in a so short period of time. So, the use of the long take technique has a precise and useful purpose, because it allows me to believe something otherwise I wouldn't believe. With 1917 I didn't get all of this, because it's not a real one take and the time of the movie is not the actual real time (there's a time jump when the protagonist faints if I remember correctly). Also, the cinematography is too graceful, it doesn't quite fit with the context of the war for me. So the directorial choices drive me away from the story the movie wants to tell.

There is a lot of cuts in 1917. The hardest one was of the two soldiers climbing out of the trench. There was no jump and they go full CG characters for a moment.

"needs more feet" quentin tarantino

Completely unreasonable from Quentin to suggest that just because they didn't go all out with 20 minute-long single shots, the effort is somewhat vain or unnecessary. The technical prowess is still amazing and the immersion is total. 1917 is a complete success in everything it was trying to achieve.

I'm sorry that Tarantino didn't elaborate on the only truly deliberate cut (change of shot) in "The Rope". It's a (simple) moment when the language of the film explodes, full of meaning. What bothers me about Sam Mendes' film is that the narrative - and its dramatic implications - seems to be locked inside a huge technical achievement. War movies always have a spectacular side, but when it overlaps human drama... it's not exactly my cup of tea.

I thought the cinematography in 1917 was marvelous, even if I put the "no cuts" gimmick aside. It was a very memorable cinema experience with a big screen and big speakers.

Awarding Parasite was one of the few times the Academy made a great decision. Crazy to argue that an extremely forgettable technical exercise which ultimately failed to say anything meaningful about the great war should've won instead.

I don’t think I’d be able to get a word in if I was there. 😂 I love having/making conversation, but I hate interrupting so when I see other people trying to talk over me I’ll usually either quickly finish my point or surrender the stage entirely and just listen. Oh and also, I love 1917 so much. I’m impressed by all of it too, and I wonder if Quinten knew about some of the crazy CGI that went into concealing some of those cuts. Corridor Crew does a great job of pointing them out, they are *very* well done. But of course at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how it was accomplished. It just matters that the end product was gorgeous to look at and emotionally moving for me

1917 is a wonderful film to experience, unfortunately some directors can't enjoy films without reducing them to the sum total of their cuts.

1917 was a marvel, All quiet on the western front was a masterpiece

As much as I can't stand Bill Maher talk sometimes, I have to get him credit, he is THE FIRST person I've seen talk about 1917 looking as two shots. Absolutely everybody talks about the film like it's made to look like one long take when it's purposefully made to look like two shots. There is a cut in the sniper nest when it cuts to black. It's a very clear cut, but somehow people just ignore it.

I'm a big Tarantino fan and I love all his movies except for one: I thought Hollywood was awful, truly.

I didn't even notice the lack of cuts I just watched and enjoyed the damn movie. It was really good IMO.

These guys should watch a Russian movie called Russian Ark. The whole film is one single take, and it's unbelievably complex. Mind blowing!

WTH are they arguing about? Bill says something, Quentin changes the subject, other guy interjects random trivia...it's like a scene from Lebowski.

Why do people keep propping up Bill Maher by showing up to talk to him…?

It's in the documentary, showing how they did it - they use CGI to merge the shots. They literally *animate* sections of the film to merge them. They did it when he jumps at one point, animating sections of his body to merge the cut. And Tarantino's films up until "Hollywood" were not "all revenge movies". lol And Bill - "Jackie Brown" was a love story.

Some of it was much more simple/traditional, like just cutting during dark/bright scenes, or when passing objects. Personally I didn't like the movie anyway, to me it just felt like a series of stage play scenes/sets, with similarly stagey acting and actors.

Honestly, I was looking for the cuts during 1917. I knew the gimmick was there but the story had me the entire time.

I think the recent remake of All Quiet on the Western Front blew 1917 out of the water on every level.

Imagine trying to argue with Tarantino about film. Maher has a habit of biting off more than he can chew & I respect that.

This was hard to watch.

There's a part in 1917 when the protagonist gets knocked out and it turns to night and the camera slowly trucks out the window into the bombed out Villa, right there it turns into a normal film for about ten seconds. Then it turns right back into watching my friend play resident evil 4.

I completely agree with Quentin. 1917 was so hyped up about this amazing ww1 movie with no cuts throughout the entire movie, filmed in a single shot. so I went in expecting the movie to be like he said. If you’re marketing your movie to be one continuous shot, then go for it. Balls the wall. Nothing about the shooting of the film felt amazing. It simply doesn’t feel like one continuous shot. It feels like a normal movie, you forget that it’s even supposed to have no cuts. Because you can FEEL the invisible cuts. That they may as well be there.

I love seeing these two guys argue about this , I love having these kind of conversations myself LOL I almost never go against Tarantino but I think it's silly of him to compare a movie with one take shot in an apartment compared to a war movie shot in one take
