The scene up in the hills with the dairy farmer has got to be one of the best and most dramatic scenes I have ever seen. Waltz really is an amazing actor!
This is he third time I’ve seen and heard him in an interview situation and one of the first things one notices about him is his precision. Very Germanic of him. ;)
he is so smart and witty and down to earth. He was great in Inglorious Bastards, I have never seen a bad guy like him. He pulls the trap in ever so slowly until you cannot move an inch and then he pounces! He is meszmerizing in every way!
I just like Chrisoph's use of the english language - he seems more verbose and and artisan-like than most people whose to whom the language is native - the man's seems gravitationally attractive to the poetic-like quality of someone who would exist within the Tarantinoverse of fictional charcaters, whilst at the same time existing within our own natural world. And then a few years later I saw him in 'Django Unchained' and was mesmerized once more; just beautiful cinema.
He's what I call a "wordsmith". He loves words and what you can do when you string them together like musical notes. He's so articulate and well spoken it's almost as if he's not real.
Brad's character was more of a comic sideshow, contrast or whatever. If the movie had more focus on Hans Landa etc. throughout it would have been better, in my opinion. That opening interrogation scene was so good and gripping, I wanted the whole movie to continue in that vibe.
Are you kidding me? Brad Pitt's got engulfed by the German actors in that movie. Waltz, Brühl, and August were all better than Bard in that movie. I think Brad was used for a commercial purpose. That's all.
waltz is really a great guy, i loved him since he played little tv films in the nineties - typical viennese wit, he is just a simple, smart man who won´t even go troppo after his second oscar
i love Christoph Waltz! i fell in love with him in "Django Unchained" and finally watched "Inglorious Basterds" and i look forward to seeing all his movies, past present and future!
@@l.3390 , yeah! I discovered that recently when I re-watched! The bearded dude, wearing a hat, the executioner, is just a mimic of Waltz in Django. When I figured that out, I went search for it, and I found out that Tarantino actually chose Waltz for the role, but Waltz had another movie to shoot. Tarantino instructed the guy to act like Waltz. And, you see, the mimic is so good that I have two friends who also thought the guy was Waltz, hahaha.
im a born german but somehow i feel sad for mr waltz being called a german everywhere in international TV and stuff... hes an austrian, i know most austrians take great pride in NOT being german. and vice versa. very good on his part not to speak up though. shows how polite he is.
He outsmarts most of his hosts. You can see the disappointment in his eyes when he's seeing the interviewer is a bit slow minded. He's a very sharp minded guy. My respect to him . And his acting is amazing .
I never realized how good the sound mixing on this film was because I was absorbed in the story. but watching these two clips, you can see how dramatic it is and important to the scenes.... Amazing
amazing interview!!!! you learn sooo much about the caracter and the actor..... you see that two incredibly smart people have worked together to create this movie.....very very very well done interview
I thought the scene where he has the whipped cream put on the pastry was genius. She was raised on a dairy farm. She knows what good cream tastes like. Being in front of him took her back to that frightening moment in her childhood, yet the cream took her back to that even earlier childhood memory. You see her eyes practically roll back when she tastes it. But she has to keep her cool. It's why the floodgates open when it's over. She has held in all those emotions so as not to give herself away.
This is the best interview I have seen with Waltz yet. The interviews with Letterman, Kimmel, Conan, etc., all lack the depth, and the continuity, the exchange. The others are all about sound-bites, this one is about understanding and motivation.
2:27-2:31 it looks like charlie is really enjoying what christoph is saying! haha -- great interview so far! christoph for the oscar! my family thinks christopher plummer will win -- i like him, but come on! christoph's performance blows everyone else out of the water, no matter what category it is! thanks for the upload :)
Listening to him speaking really demonstrate he is not just and actor; an artist. It is so inspiring it makes me think if I had seen this interview when I was 15, I would have maybe made try acting as a career or profession.
GOD FUCKING DAMN IT. They cut the most fucking important part of that scene. God damn fucking 'Mericans. The whole "I don't view being called a rat an insult" is probably the most important idea in the film.
Waltz performance was amazing but he solidified his career with his hero character arc in Django. Tarantino really showed his genius more in casting than script writing. Without Waltz, neither movie would have been as successful. Waltz brings a quality of acting that is hard to pull off especially with foreign languages. Brilliant multi-cultural awareness on Tarantino's behalf. Just brilliant.
He seemed shocked for a moment at Rose's 'give us an acting lesson" like how could you ask me to talk about my craft in such a frank and raw manner haha
When Charlie Rose says "But the Protagonist, the tension." at 4:02 I believe he should have said "Antagonist" when referring to Christoph Waltz's character.
Hans is THE most intricate Character I have ever seen. He is ALMOST an Anti-Hero, to Me. I found Myself rooting for Him, throughout the film, and especially after multiple viewings. Mr. Waltz REALLY brought the character home, and made Him not only seem, but feel more in depth and real. His mind is a constant machine, and You really see that He is a character that is only in search of employing His great mind and skills, which is why He IS the "Jew Hunter ".
What's crazy is he played quiet possibly one of the most evil characters in history and yet we absolutely fell in love with his unbelievable talent. This is comparable to watching Van Gogh paint.
wow, there are talk shows in english/american televison that still has a certain class! Not everything is about David Glitterman and Jay Reno! Am I relieved!?!?!
+Hurtado Raffo Tito He sounded like he didn't know what the word vocation meant.. lol Not saying i did before this but he is an interviewer after all...
He's describing the possibilities and the raw information. It's what we all see and think everyday, but never realise it. Try doing it the next time you ride a bicycle. :)
Every time I see his reaction to the cream I feel he felt skimped. I know I would! Possibly why he didn't finish the strudel. It's all about proportionality.
Knowing what we know now about Charlie adds another layer to this interview, a little window into the mind of a deviant predator. "Let me tell you something about levels of power and victimization Christoph .."
@EngelbertEdelholz But I reckon Hanz Landa filled the role of "Antagonist" quite well. I get what you are saying with the whole "kind gentleman" persona he was putting forward which would make him seem almost like a "protagonist".
I always see Landa as a victim in this movie. He is a character in conflict with what Nazism is telling him to believe and what he actually believes. and in the end he discovers that his role as the Jewhunter is not actually representative of who he is so he abandons the Nazis and involves himself in the theater mission to destroy them. Its a very moving case study of an individual who has been trapped in a fascist society in which he is being forced to commit horrible deeds. There is a reason he makes it out alive with just a symbol on his forehead. Landa is the good guy here, and he was courageous enough to stand up for beliefs that would have him killed in Germany during this time period.
Would you consider aldo the good guy in this movie? well he acts out of self-interest as well as with a sense of honor and revenge against the Nazis. Despite Landa's personality or character, his actions were courageous and reflective of a part of him that wanted to see an end to war. Like I said, he's been shaped by a difficult time period and a country in chaos. He could never be the knight in shining armor because those people don't exist. So I'm not simplifying anything. You're simplifying a single point about I've made about an aspect of his character. I recognize him as being extremely complex. But in this storyline he does show goodness and courage... and he lives for a very important reason. The swastika on his head does not take away the fact that he basically saved the world lol.
Yeah, he's more complex than just calling him a "bad guy" but to call him a "victim" and a "good guy" is also very simplistic. He murders for no good reason except for his excessive pride and vengeance for being outsmarted (Bridget von Hammersmark) - this murder had nothing to do with Nazism as he already had decided to set his plan of letting the war end and switch sides. This was just him being completely narcissistic and frustrated at his own failure as a detective. Also, he only let the war end because the opportunity arised and he used other people's plans. He didn't save the world, he let the world be saved by others, which of course makes him an accomplice to a good deed and that's why he is more of an anti-villain than a traditional villain. Aldo is not a "good guy" either, he's an anti-hero. The only "good guy" in this movie is actually a girl. Shosanna Dreyfus is the only good victimized lead character.
Wow, that's gotta be the worst read of a character ever. Landa is an opportunist. He is well aware that the end is near, as is Hitler (see D-Day scene and the defeat in Hitler's eyes). It's a losing war, if this mission doesn't succeed the next one will and without Hans Landa being a "hero" and getting a free pass, but rather a front-row seat at the Nuremberg trials. That character has 0 conflict in him.
That scene that was just shown gave me chills because Walt’s knows that their are a Jews hiding but he plays cat and mouse game a well done by Quentine
Anyone notice Charlie's face when Christoph talked about the energy in the scene because of an older man and a younger woman? Seems much darker knowing all the shit Charlie Rose did
rose asks waltz to explain the scene, and he explains it( hes an actor, right?, normal people then go comment how smart he is, how wonderful he is , simply because he explains the scene, through an actor/ director lenses. and they cant or would not think at a scene, ever the way he explains it, because they are not trained to think this way, they are regular cubicle office 8-5 workers or whatever they do for work but not the movie industry of course. a job you are not qualified for does not make the person who has the job super smart or a demi god, people
The scene up in the hills with the dairy farmer has got to be one of the best and most dramatic scenes I have ever seen. Waltz really is an amazing actor!
agreed, the casual entry and dialog working its way up to the betrayal was beautfly executed
Nice helmet spaceman !!
he is able to express himself astonishing precisely
I agree. I would say this a large part as to why he is such a good actor

This is he third time I’ve seen and heard him in an interview situation and one of the first things one notices about him is his precision. Very Germanic of him. ;)
@@djdollase which is weird COZ HE IS NEITHER GERMAN NOR GERMANIC.
The opening scene has without a doubt got to be one of the best cinematic pieces ever. The first time I saw it, I was just on the edge of my seat
he is so smart and witty and down to earth. He was great in Inglorious Bastards, I have never seen a bad guy like him. He pulls the trap in ever so slowly until you cannot move an inch and then he pounces! He is meszmerizing in every way!
Hans Landa is one of the most impressionable villains I’ve ever seen.
Nicest villain, he didn’t take his work personal, he just did his job
I just like Chrisoph's use of the english language - he seems more verbose and and artisan-like than most people whose to whom the language is native - the man's seems gravitationally attractive to the poetic-like quality of someone who would exist within the Tarantinoverse of fictional charcaters, whilst at the same time existing within our own natural world.

He's what I call a "wordsmith". He loves words and what you can do when you string them together like musical notes. He's so articulate and well spoken it's almost as if he's not real.
Here is the deepest, sharpest,serious and most didactic lesson about a dramma scene from an actor, it deserves an applause.
i think waltz's character may be more important than brad pitt's!
It was. He leaves a much heavier emotional impact, as he should have.
Oscar talks
Brad's character was more of a comic sideshow, contrast or whatever.
If the movie had more focus on Hans Landa etc. throughout it would have been better, in my opinion.

Well, this is quite an old of a commentary, but I suppose you've also watched Hateful Eight too. Waltz is amazing there too :D

This interview is like an interrogation

'Everything was learned.' That is an amazing compliment from a great actor (CW), not only for QT, but for American film in general...
02:04 So refreshing to see an actor actually answer an interesting question.
This is the best interview I have seen with Waltz yet. The interviews with Letterman, Kimmel, Conan, etc., all lack the depth, and the continuity, the exchange. The others are all about sound-bites, this one is about understanding and motivation.
"That's a bingo!"
Waltz is one of the greatest actors of our time.
Waltz is too good. He's won two Oscars for Tarantino films... what else people?!?!
This man is an acting beast!
what an incredibly intelligent, well spoken man. Waltz is a true artist
hes one of the coolest, so glad hes in movies a lot now, well deserved

The protagonist being Shoshanna. The tension being between Shoshanna and Waltz' character, in that scene specifically.

English is my first language and I didn't know what vocation meant
Awesome, Shakespeare is coming up to mind when Chris Waltz is doing his vocation...............
Throughout the interrogation i was expecting waltz to ask Charlie rose a question and stare at him for a brief period of time. I leave disappointed 😞

WHAT A HUNK! Can't wait to see him in another movie.
I think Hans Landa suspected something was up with the French girl, but other events, such as betraying the Third Reich, diverted his attention lol.
