My left ear loved this video

Three colours had a huge impact on me. I rewatch them every few years and they get better with each viewing. I love all three but Juliette Binoche was the reason I watched them in the first place so I would say Blue is my favourite but they are each such gems it is hard to choose. I am a talent manager and recommend my actors view these films as a benchmark of greatness.

Kieslowski's Three Colors are great. One amongst many of my favorites. Yes, White stands out for it's starkness, but I like blue. I like it when Kielowski explores music. I also loved the Double Life of Veronique for this quality. Thank you for this.

Blue is amazing. Especially how subtly beautiful the visuals are.

I saw all three films in the cinema with my then fiancée back in 1993/94 and loved them all, but the one that really impressed us the most was Red, nearly 30 years later (I'm feeling old just saying that) it remains my favourite film of all, it was stunningly photographed, the acting is peerless, and music was so beautiful. I don't think there are too many perfect films, but Red is definitely one of them. I agree with the title of your video, the Three Colours Trilogy is the greatest, but one that you didn't mention that I also love is Sergio Leone's Man With No Name Trilogy, and again I think the final film is best in the series and one of the few perfect films.

I haven’t seen the Before trilogy of films. Your comments made me think I might enjoy it.

You'd love them.

Love your insight - thank you for sharing

Red is my favorite movie of all times.

Others include the Antoine Doinel series which was a trilogy for many years until Truffaut made a fourth. Also Antonioni's Trilogy on Modernity and Its Discontent.

Your analysis really resonates with me. I'd never thought of the power of certain great movies in terms of trilogies, but now I'm stuck on it after you wrapped the fantastic "Before" films together with my favorite trilogy: "Three Colors" (of course it helps to throw in "Star Wars" and "The Godfather"). I went through an intense Kieslowski phase in the 90s, starting with "Double Life of Veronique," the Dekalog and finishing with "Blue," "White" and "Red." It's fair to say I'm still in this phase, and now I marvel at how much this director has influenced and inspired directors who came after him, like David Lynch, Brad Anderson, Richard Kelly and Tony Gilroy.

Both 'Blue' and 'Red' are in my top 4 of the 90s. They're incredible films.

The Apu trilogy is probably the best, but Three Colors would be a very very close second.

@@vodkatonyq agree. Not as good as kieslowski.

Maybe, but the Apu trilogy is quite good. Also, one must take into consideration the loose trilogies of various auteurs such as Bergan's Trilogy of Faith: Through a Glass Darkly, Winter Light, and Silence.

Great video!

Thank you Jerry

Excellent video

You had me at click-baity title. I haven’t see this trilogy, but have been aware of it since I saw *Red* reviewed on Siskel & Ebert’s old show. Your title attracted me so I could learn more about the trilogy. Now I want to see them! Besides - Juliette Binoche. What’s not to love? I looked into your previous posts and I’m going to hang around a bit if you don’t mind.

You'll love the trilogy. It's a real artistic achievement. Kieslowski was on a different level.

also your audio is only left-channel, just want you to know because I was worried something was wrong with my earbuds... definitely watch all 3 together... the first time I didn't get white, but when revisiting.... white was hilarious as a prank war between two completely unhinged people that keep topping themselves in their revenge...

I enjoyed these films .. but the best trilogy imo is Park Chan-wooks “Vengeance” trilogy .. I love those films!

Red is my favorite movie. Know it by heart. That and Hiroshima mon amour taught me the French language. I’ve always painted my walls the same color as in the judge’s house and Valentine’s apartment. Red is a film against indifference.

I love this trilogy and all of Kieslowski’s work that I’ve seen (I’ve still got some of his earlier films to go). I’d hold Star Wars as the weakest mentioned; it’s basically a retread of the old serials like Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon, et al. Plus it’s overstayed by a loooong way, for purely commercial reasons. The Godfather II is the one to see. The first is excellent, but the comparison of father’s and son’s rise is brilliantly done, tying back in to the historical homeland. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Before trilogy. Other trilogies are mentioned by others, many of which are worth seeing. The major omission, to me, is Kobayashi’s The Human Condition. Yes, it’s long at well over 9 hours for the films, but to carry it’s main character through a World War when he is at odds with his own society, is truly remarkable. No doubt the fact it is subtitled and Japanese will be enough to put many off, but it’s Humanist attitude is wonderfully interrogated in a very realistic fashion by Japan’s militaristic society. This is a must-see for all lovers of cinema who don’t view a foreign language as a stumbling block.

From where to get free links of White and Blue?

How about the great Bergman Trilogy of Faith - Through a Glass Darkly, Winter Light and The Silence ?

It's difficult to compare the other trilogies with Three Colours since the three films in the latter are essentially separate stories with different characters who inhabit the same universe with only slight interconnectedness. In contrast, the other trilogies are about the same characters who grow and develop across three movies. It can be more difficult to keep the same characters and their stories engaging across three movies so that's maybe part of why Return of the Jedi and Godfather Part 3 are both considered the weakest entries in their trilogies. In particular, the Godfather 3 didn't benefit from being based on an existing popular novel which had already been stress-tested by editors, critics and audiences. In that sense, Before Midnight is remarkable in that it's as good as the first two movies, even though each movie was made around 9 years apart, and the Before trilogy is the most consistent one involving the same characters. And all three are original stories (though the latter two are partially inspired by the real life experiences of Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy and Richard Linklater). The other great trilogy that came to mind is Lord of the Rings though the three movies were filmed together as one long production which also benefitted from strong source material. Overall, it's difficult to compare trilogies.

The Apu Trilogy from India. The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Monty Python Trilogy.

My favorite of the Colors is Red.

White was my least favorite of the 3 the first time I watched this trilogy. Now it's my favorite.

Idk, The LOTR trilogy is up there imo..

Hi, please fix your audio, this is atrocious!

the best trilogy OAT is lord of the rings

Nah man it really really isn’t, it’s very average

It’s great, but I think White stops it from being placed in the mythical realm which it is often placed. Blue and Red are among the best films ever made, but White is merely “good.”

Each film is the best at one aspect of other, but White is the best overall. The only reason it seems to suffer in some people's eyes is because it's the most Polish & therefore not everyone is familiar with the reference points & the things it is trying to say.

Great to see your take on cinematic trilogies. You already hit the nail on the head with the ones mentioned.👍 For me, the original Star Wars trilogy is simply the best, bringing us something we'd never seen before, with likeable, well-written characters, situations you could identify with (despite them being in a galaxy far, far away), and a great overall story arc completed by the end of the third film, which although dabbles with cliche still manages to be extremely powerful.🪐 The Before trilogy would be next, as I find it enthralling to see such a 'simple', but intimate story told about the same two characters at three different periods in their lives - although the third part is a tougher watch and feels a long way from the feeling of its preceding parts.🧡 The Godfather films are also superb, although each one feels very different from the others, and the third suffered from the lack of some familiar characters not returning.🐴 Let's not forget The Lord of the Rings too - perhaps not as consistent as those already mentioned, and outstays its welcome in parts, but still a cinematic triumph.🏹 With regards to Three Colours, I warmed most to Red.🔴 I found it the most intriguing and enjoyable of the three, with an engaging central performance from Irene Jacob.😊 Thanks for re-igniting the inspiration.😀 Subs. 👍

The original Star Wars trilogy is just about as perfect as they come in terms of action trilogies. There's a reason those characters became so iconic. You're right about the third Before film being the hardest to watch. My favorite is Before Sunset. But, I think part of the reason Midnight is so difficult is because it's so honest and messy. Like real relationships. Love Red. Especially visually. And Irene Jacob. 🙂
