The first time I saw this film I was in the hospital after just having brain surgery going through a mid life crisis when this came on it taught no matter what comes just enjoy yourself and laugh through the madness
ZORBA THE GREEK. My father, Evangellos, was a stern disciplinarian yet bundled within a silk vail of sentimentality. On a warm, sunny afternoon, I took him to the cinema to see Anthony Quinn play “Zorba the Greek”. During the movie, he calmly asked me what village Antony Quinn's family was from in Greece. "No Pop..he's Mexican and Irish”...I said. Well quite upset hearing this and with an anger ready to swing an arm toward my face for disrespecting him, I persuaded my dad to keep calm and watch the entire movie. He did not appreciate the way ELLAS, the ancient historic name of his birthplace ( he refused to utter the word Greece..."It's ELLAS", he would demand" ) was depicted casting the poor populous of Crete in such a disrespectful manner….BUT….in that classic scene when Zorba, with sparkles in his eyes, hungrily looking at the sea ...started running impulsively toward it.... tearing off his clothes....”butt naked” ….diving into the crystal blue waters of the Aegean Sea….and !…….well my Dad burst out laughing like a wild, crazed Zorba. He was beside himself ! Why….you could see his tears rolling down his face...hearing that explosive laughter all the way outside in the parking lot. Later on, he admitted to me that he, as a youth,..."did the same Damn Thing ! " Memories
Most definitely one of the best.. I adore this clip.. Im going through a phase of watching film clip endings.. There are some great Ones. Clint Eastwood films an example.. So many ... Yet i return to this as a favourite.. 🍃🌿🕊
They just lost almost everything important in their lifes and still both have the strength to say "Good Bye" with a last dance...that's what makes this scene so powerful! Love it! :')
but the bottom line is...they didnt lost anything ... they didnt need anything ,life is simple ,little food,place to sleep and love,dance and happines . you dont need big houses,fancy cars,fancy clothes...
A classic movie (1964) based on the 1946 novel by Nikos Kazantzakis. It is the late Anthony Quinn’s finest performance. Brilliant musical score and dance choreography by Mikis Theodorakis that featured the sirtaki Greek dance with the bouzouki Greek guitar music which became popular worldwide. Memorable movie ending scene.
This film was so vivid for me when I saw it at the cinema as a very young person that I remembered it in colour. I was flabbergasted when I saw it for the second time and found that it had always been in black and white. The most powerful film of all time, the most poignant, the most impactful and moving. The music of Mikis Theodorakis is beautiful and painful and jubilant. The matching of Alan Bates with Anthony Quinn is masterful.
Zorba's grave is located in Skopje, the capital of the Republic of Macedonia. I think he immigrated in 1920. I think he died in 1944 when the Bulgarian fascists were here.
@@ljubestojanovski4475 That's very interesting. I assume you don't have information on exactly how he died, but I imagine the fascists had everything to do with it.
@@helenem4586 He came to Skopje in 1922 with his daughter Ekaterina. He lived in the hotel "Hunter". His real name is George Zorbas. He was a bohemian. He usually went to the Merger inn. Accepted and often important who will sit at his table faster. He died of a heart attack in 1941 a few months after marrying his daughter. His grave has been in Butel since 1956. Whoever wants can go and take flowers to his grave. I do not know exactly where it is located. The cemetery is large.
@@helenem4586 Alexis Tsipras's partner Betty Baziana laid flowers at his grave. The tomb is family. Unfortunately I can not send you the picture. In 2019 is the photo. Then they were in Macedonia and Skopje.
yes, in addition to the beauty of the scene & the human empowerment side, it is perhaps the first film that addresses the relations of north/south peoples.
This was a magnificent movie featuring one of ,mif not the greatest actor of our time, Anthony Quinn. This was a novel by Nikos Katzenzakis who , in his writings explored the passions of men and women alike. Alan Bates was also a subdued but brilliant actor. They can’t be replaced.
Quinn who was an American of Mexican stock was very good at playing Greeks. I recall that he was also memorable in The Magus, playing along side Michael Caine. And he did a convincing Italian rogue in La Strada (Fellini). One of the great character actors of all time, greatly missed.
You mean model actor not model man...like most of us very susseptable to that which is common to man our selfish me me me ego nature...but as an actor I fully agree ...one of the greatest ever...
Гробот на Зорба се наоѓа на гробиштата во Бутел, Скопје. Умрел 1943 или 1944 година за време на Бугарската окупација. Нека му е лесна Македонската земја.
Laugh thru the madness... Dance thru the pain n loss... I need to go back to Greece ñ swim in my Cretes' deep blue water n forget that life exists here for a couple of hundred years.....
Zorba is fascinating, he tries to teach many things,to take risks,dares to fail,and laughs if that happens, the journey is.important even if we fail.He enjoys life. The movie is much.more complex than this and fascinating.Thanks for sharing this video
You would think Anthony Quinn was Greek for thousands of years. He should have got the Oscar. Zorba’s greatest statement, A man must be somewhat crazy so that he dares to cut the ropes. That I remember forever.
Si no hubiese sido por tan maravillosa pelicula y tan maravillosa actuacion del latinoamericano Anthony Queen, el mundo no hubiera podido apreciar la cultura y la musica del pueblo griego. Gracias por mostrarnos al mundo el espiritu de vida Griega
Anthony Quinn was indeed robbed of Best Actor for the Academy Award that year. Gregory Peck won it and.. yes.. great in to "Kill a Mockingbird'.....but against Quinn's portrayal of Zorba....absolutely NO COMPARRISON. Give it back to the man who deserved it the MOST.....ANTHONY QUINN.....WE ALL KNOW IT ! NOONE IN CINEMATIC HISTORY COULD DO IT..... BETTER ! ΓΙΑΣΟΥ ΑΝΤΩΝΙΟΣ
Es inmortal, hermosa escena y este personaje es un ejemplo de calidad autodidacta , espero que estés en paz y feliz y este tema es solo tuyo!!! El griego
Una de mis grandes favorita la vez que la veo termino como la primera vez que tenía 9 años llorando no sé pero siempre termino entre lágrimas tal vez Antony queen

One of the best movie endings in the history of film.

This is the Hellenic spirit. Defiance till the end.
but the bottom line is...they didnt lost anything ... they didnt need anything ,life is simple ,little food,place to sleep and love,dance and happines . you dont need big houses,fancy cars,fancy clothes...
That's pretty much Greece in a nutshell. You can lose everything, but a little bit of food, music, and good company...That's all you need in life...
@@aurorafree5842 Exactly.
@@DimShamrock 😎❤👍
When everything is lost but hope, dance like Zorba.
So true...
...without the madness, he dares not cut the rope..and bè....FREE!

You are so right. If the whole Family is dead - dance like Zorba! How stu*** are you!?
oh, yesssss
Something like this happens once in a while. Thank you both, Anthony and Alan!

God i love this movie so much i need to watch this again. Anthony Quinn one of my favorite actors.
Madre Santa, per me, una fra le più belle scene nella storia del cinema con un Quinn e una musica da brivido!
Vu a 16 ans 6 fois j'ai 71 ans je m'en lasse pas , beautyfull yes,
Magistral
Согласна с вами. Грандиозно !!!!

Great comment!
No one ever filled the void left by Anthony Quinn. A model man.
You mean model actor not model man...like most of us very susseptable to that which is common to man our selfish me me me ego nature...but as an actor I fully agree ...one of the greatest ever...
Brilliant!!! Intellect asks for the heart to teach it to dance. Congruence!!
What a beautiful commenti ! Just brilliant!
A brilliant, iconic scene. Bravo!
Εξαίρετη ταινία! Διδάσκει πάρα πολλά! Αθάνατε Μίκη Θεοδωράκη...

Deep stoic message 100% and for that reason it’s easily a top5
Try the book!
I agree. Much much more than this. This movie is philosophical.
Thanks for explaining, I never saw the movie, so this is helpful.
This is the core of Kazantzakis' thought, Zorba's approach to life, with all the good and bad in it.
a beautiful scene, uplifting like nothing else
Un final superb, al unui film dur, o apoteoza a speranței, a încrederii în oameni, infirmat din păcate de ce se întâmplă astăzi, trist, f, trist,,,,,
Good goddamn........probably the most iconic moment in cinematography history!!!
Great movie 🎥 love Anthony Quinn 🦋🦋🦋 Great actor 🌹
Сколько в нём мужского обаяния.! На него можно смотреть бесконечно.
Há muito tempo, essa cena mudou a minha forma de ver o mundo.
I give you a call
Un baile precioso.Gracias.

Soy de México, si no conociera de este excelente actor creería que el fuese griego.

He also had other books equally superb.
Muy hermosa danza griega interpretada y bailada por el Gran Actor Antony Quinn
