Jennifer Lawrence and Emma stoke aren’t mediocre actors. Just young actresses. Time will prove how great they are. Glenn on the other hand is in another league. She is great. A mediocre actress like Gwyneth Paltrow, Kim Basinger, Sandra Bullock, Halle Berry..you mean
It's funny you think the Oscars are simply about talent. All nominees are talented. But it's a mad combination of that, a great film vehicle, a supportive major studio backing, a heck of an awards season campaign, and for some people like Liz Taylor...an emergency tracheotomy near death scare will get you enough sympathy and academy votes even if you're nominated for a forgettable movie. It's all of that plus sheer luck that the momentum and the tastes of the period favors you. So no, it's not about talent.
Emma Stone is a good actress who didn’t deserve her Oscar for the film she’s in, granted the nominees that year weren’t the strongest. I haven’t seen Jackie but from what I’ve heard Natalie Portman was really good in it, but she had just won for Black Swan, Meryl Streep has already won a lot, Isabelle Huppert was a foreign actress and the only times that a foreign actress has won best actress were in 1960 for Sophia Loren and 2008 for Marion Cottillard. It was between Ruth and Emma and the academy pushed Emma because they saw her as more economically lucrative, the best actress/actor award is an investment or show of appreciation for a long career in the industry (Jamie Lee Curtis comes to mind immediately). I understand that The Accused also came out the same year as this but oh my god I wish Glenn Close had gotten this Oscar.
She and Meryl Streep, who delivered one of her finest characterizations as Aussie Lindy Chamberlain in A Cry In The Dark, were in the same category where Jodie Foster won over them, imagine that! I prefer Glenn Close to have won 2 Best Actress Academy Awards way even before Jodie Foster did it in 1992. 🤔
@@mwhite6522 Really? Understandable that that was the take they chose because it's perfect for the reason I wrote above. Up until this moment she was in control and now she's broken. Glenn Close is such a great actress.
@@hippolyte90 They probably figured same as you after they saw the take, and that's why it's in the movie, but I did read it was not a planned slip. She stayed in character and went with it.
Actually, this is one of the few times the movie adaptation changes the original story for the better. In the book, the Marquise gets some sort of disease that leaves her disfigured. This ending, that makes her an outcast is somehow more satisfying.
In the book she had small pox and ended up super ugly and lost an eye due to the disease. She lost her beauty, status and also almost all of her money. She fled to the Netherlands.
In the era of the book's publication, a disease was a theme of Divine Punishment. "Society" may be tardy (at least!) in perceiving someone correctly - but never the Creator, Whose "eye is on the sparrow" ....
What a biting ending. I also love how it's the exact mirror image to how the movie starts. It began with Merteuil admiring her own reflection. Here, she stares at herself, her true self, and realizes what an ugly soul she really is. Brilliant.
SethBlizzard --- Yes indeed...Bookends of the movie. It was wonderful! I saw it a dozen times when I was in college. I so wanted, at the time, to be Mad. M. But with a better ending of course. I still love this film, costumes, acters are perfect....much better than ANY of the remakes including Valmont.
I don’t think she is realizing that her soul is ugly. Maybe what she realizes is that she has lost everything, and that it’s her own fault. She loved Valmont.
If you notice, she can barely stand to look at herself at the end, despite sitting inches away from the mirror. She has figuratively "lost face", which in high society = death. Win or Die.
This is such an iconic scene. She’s completely crushed at the end. Everyone is aware of her treacherous behavior. And not a word is spoken with the exception of being “booed”. Brilliant. She looks so angry and hurt
The bookends of this film - Glenn Close in the mirror at the beginning, wistfully combing her hair and gazing at her own reflection, and then Glenn Close in the mirror at the end, a broken woman, having lost at the game she prided herself on having been born to win - just fucking amazing. All the more so because you honestly feel for her. They link in with that scene where she explains to Valmont how she "invented herself" - you understand how she resorted to the kind of devious and scheming life for which you could've easily hated her, in order to "dominate your sex and avenge my own." Here, she loses it and chews the scenery after having been perfectly poised and in control for literally the entire movie, and then all of Paris society turns on her and rejects her, and she retires to the mirror and strips off the mask, clinging to her crumbling pride with an almost admirable tenacity. Fuck the Oscars.
Avenging her sex by having the reputation of a young girl she's only spoken to a few times who only offended her by existing completely ruined? By having a man assault and then blackmail that girl into sex and then encouraging her to have sex with the man who attacked her while she herself is sleeping with the man the girl is in love with? Just because the girl is betrothed to a man who dumped her? How is that avenging her sex? Then again maybe at this moment she's realising that she doesn't have an excuse for her actions at all or that any she had were used up years ago.
lovely summary of the best scene... one must not forget that in the original book she somehow manages to escape to a more liberal country to do something fallen ladies do .. I think she opened up a nice smoke-n-toke shop near the Centraal Station.. but Paris society it was not :(
@@julijakeit that's the entirety of "the game". She summed it up in the early parts of the movie when she said, "If I want a man I have him. If he wants to tell, he finds that he can't." Everyone, and I mean everyone was getting some on the side. Probably even Mme de Volanges.
And it’s like an « answer » to how the movie starts : you see both Merteuil and Valmont getting ready with their helpers (they dress up, put powder on, wigs etc.) like actors getting ready to go on stage - and at the end of the movie, Merteuil wipes her makeup off, alone, end of the play
Everyone praises her most Oscar worthy performance was in Fatal attraction but it was THIS MOVIE she was something else...... These scene speaks volumes......
Glenn Close breaking down after every Oscar night ( The World according to Garp, The Big Chill, The Natural, Fatal Attraction, Dangerous Liaisons, Albert Nobbs and THE WIFE, AGAIN). Seven nomination, seven loss, she is the only living person with that many nominations, without a win. Ugh, that sickens me.
I really love this scene. The continuous booing reminds me of the moaning of ghosts, and though Merteuil didn’t die like Valmont, she is now forced to live with the ghosts of the victims of her manipulations, constantly tormenting her, the way she did them.
My favorite Glenn Close performance ever. She was going up against Jodie Foster for the Accused and was rooting for Jodie at the time. I’ve watch both performances throughout the years and Glenn I have to admit is superior. This whole scene in particular is amazing.
This is such a monumentally epic movie, in so many ways. I am still dumbfounded how they did not toss a cart of them at her for this performance. So deliciously evil and tragic. The casting of this movie was so well done. Her being scorned by society was a fate worse than death for her. Such brilliant acting.
She totally deserved that Oscar. I just watched this movie for the first time today and I was blown away. She is magnificent wow. One best actress I have ever seen. Jodie foster did do well in the film the accused but Glenn was on fire, she don’t come close (pun intended) to her at all.
There are few actors that can captivate the audience with that fierce, penetrating glare like Glenn Close. She is able to convey so much with a simple look, without saying a word. That's the one thing I always notice across all her performances. Amazing actress!!!!
Glenn Close is really a fantastic actress, and with Pfeiffer and Malkovitch, all of the others actors this movie is a masterpiece, one of the best adaptations of the book with Valmont also.
Her desperation after Valmont's death always made me sick to my stomach. It feels like Glenn Close manifested her own intimate grief from someone she lost, the emotion is far too real to come from just acting.
That little stumble as she tries to leave with what shreds of dignity left her, if any. Which makes me realize that because she avenged out of indignity, she was doomed to lose everything in the end.
@Juan Pablo Gonzalez Glenn has a good role in Hillbilly Ellegy which comes out on Netflix later this year. Lets hope the movie is good and she might be in contention again next time.
There it is! I saw this movie in College, kind of halfway paid attention, but what happens at about 0:35 has stayed with me a lonnng time. This is the *best* revenge for this character. Imagine now, people who thrive on starting ugly rumors, who hurt others for fun - if we all stopped talking about them (no comments on anything in Social media. No responding to articles written about them. No videos on TH-cam about them, the modern day version). Doing what Moms used to say when we were bugged by our siblings "Just pretend he's not there" 😂😂 This scene was so well done, thank you for sharing it! I definitely need to watch the film again.
This is one of the greatest acting scene in movie history.Just superb. How the F - -K did she not get an Oscar for this movie.Her whole role was exquisite. I was stunned to find out Cher? got the Oscar. WTF. I hope she wins one soon. I have read that she is getting Oscar buzz for her new movie.Hope she wins.
I remember my grandparents watching this and everytime I tried to watch with them they would always say you won’t understand it. Now that I’m in my 30s I’m like holy shit I’m glad I waited it was so much going on and the acting was amazing. One of my favorite movies of all time.
It's not a moot point to her. She was cast out of society, which was the ultimate humiliation. For all her talk of being a virtuoso of deceit, she could do nothing against it.
@@AtlasBlizzard She is booed by her peers who are practicing the same deceptions as she, just she was better at it, and yet got found out. Hypocrisy and Schadenfreude.
In the novel, her character develops small pox and physically disfigured to the max. She flees France as debt collectors are out to get her, but whatever family members are left are forced to pay her debts. She takes valuables with her to maintain some kind of life; I think she is headed to Belgium....
The book, written more than 200 years ago, is a tremendous masterpiece and these actors find the perfect vibe for each character. John Malkovich is my favorite actor. He showed in this film how brilliant he is. How I miss his performances.
I own this on VHS, and got a VCR just to watch it, along with "Life Is Beautiful", & "i am sam". Screw the Oscars. Everyone KNOWS that Glenn Close is a powerhouse phenom. That's all that matters! We💗Glenn.
Glenn Close gave a classy, understated but powerful performance of a vain woman who wants to have everything but lost it all because of her sheer selfishness. And she doesn't need an Oscar to validate her talent and her superb body of work. In fact, it cheapens it. And winning an Oscar doesn't necessarily mean you're a great actress. In the words of Oscar winner Kathy Bates - " you win an Oscar because your peers like your performance of that particular role. That doesn't mean you will be assured of steady work and meaty film offers in your entire lifetime , especially when you grow older". And now Kathy herself is more of a director now, her acting gig has dried up.
she deserved it but i still felt bad for her. something about glenn made the character charming, unlike in cruel intentions where i found katheryn to be annoying
Todavía no entiendo como no le dieron el oscar a la mejor actriz a glenn close por esta película hizo una actuación magnífica al igual que en atracción fatal . Me da la sensación que hay mano negra detrás de ésto para que ella no sea premiada.

The book, written more than 200 years ago, is a tremendous masterpiece and these actors find the perfect vibe for each character. John Malkovich is my favorite actor. He showed in this film how brilliant he is. How I miss his performances.
What a powerful scene. She is amazing
In death the Vicomte de Valmont got his revenge over the Marquise de Merteuil. She won the battle but he won the war.
I own this on VHS, and got a VCR just to watch it, along with "Life Is Beautiful", & "i am sam". Screw the Oscars. Everyone KNOWS that Glenn Close is a powerhouse phenom. That's all that matters! We💗Glenn.
That slow fade out is absolutely terrifying.
I think she realizes she is alone, with nothing to give her reason to exist.
For this and only this awesome and incomparable final scene, she deserved the Oscar! One of the greatest! 🎭
Glenn Close gave a classy, understated but powerful performance of a vain woman who wants to have everything but lost it all because of her sheer selfishness. And she doesn't need an Oscar to validate her talent and her superb body of work. In fact, it cheapens it. And winning an Oscar doesn't necessarily mean you're a great actress. In the words of Oscar winner Kathy Bates - " you win an Oscar because your peers like your performance of that particular role. That doesn't mean you will be assured of steady work and meaty film offers in your entire lifetime , especially when you grow older". And now Kathy herself is more of a director now, her acting gig has dried up.
Glenn Close should have won best actress. Magnificent performance.
She's an amazing actress.
Like if you're here after Glenn winning the Golden Globe (hopefully her first Oscar).
Her social life was ruined forever.
Outcast.
Increíble que nunca haya ganado el Oscar... es magnífica 🙌🏿
I have never witnessed better acting.
ONE OF THE GREATEST PERFORMANCES EVER
Dangerous Liaisons is too often forgotten as being one of the very best movies of the 80's.
What a fucking great actress
This is my favourite scene in any film ever.
1:40 to 2:50 is just acting masterclass and enough for the Oscar...
And in the end, the only tear she sheds is for herself.
Brilliant performance in a well-written part. Kudos to Close. And forget all you shallow trolls who won't shut up about headlines.
One of my top 3 favorite scenes!!!!
she deserved it but i still felt bad for her. something about glenn made the character charming, unlike in cruel intentions where i found katheryn to be annoying
‘Shame’, you only feel it once
The games people play behind the other's back is crazy. She didn't win the Oscar also crazy. Brilliant movie.
How does this woman not have an Oscar? :(
Absolutely brilliant! How could she possibly not win? It’s crazy!
Perfection. There's no other way to describe this type of acting and direction.
Todavía no entiendo como no le dieron el oscar a la mejor actriz a glenn close por esta película hizo una actuación magnífica al igual que en atracción fatal . Me da la sensación que hay mano negra detrás de ésto para que ella no sea premiada.
