The best part of this interview is Ron Howard giving so much credit to so many other people who worked on the film. He understands how collaborative the filmmaking process is and is so quick to give credit to everyone else. It's not "I did this, then I did this". He's constantly referencing his team. It's no wonder he's such a successful director.
It's a reflection too of the operation being filmed. It took hundreds of people contributing to saving these boys. Pretty cool rhyming between life and film.
Well said I watched a documentary with the real people n man they all did such a fantastic,accurate portrayal of the people involved. I got choked up watching the movie & the documentary. Truly brilliant.
underrated? Howard has won two Academy Awards, four Emmys, a Grammy, two Golden Globes. I'll let you look up the movies the actors have been in (ever heard of Lord of the Rings) and awards they've won.
It was such a good movie. Two and a half hours just flew by- it was gripping and somehow filled with tension, even knowing full well that the boys all survive.
@@GracieTurts There's a National Geographic documentary on it I went n watched after really enjoying the movie n it only increased my admiration for how brilliantly the movie was. The actors all done such an amazing job to accurately portray everyone involved. Sometimes Hollywood likes to "add flavour" when making these movies but wow how impressed I was with every detail. Especially Viggo playing Rick so accurately. Blown away by it.
@@firstnamelastname8790 This was like the biggest news story of the year in 2018, the movie is based on a true story, I thought everyone knew they survived. Also if you haven't watched the movie you shouldn't be watching a video like this you can get spoilers.
Wow. This film was something else, the suspense was surreal throughout, especially as I had no knowledge of the outcome. The fact that the film made sure to focus on everyone who was helping out as well was beautiful, seeing the volunteers diverting the water and adapting to the lack of equipment was great. This felt like an important film and I hope that more people choose to watch it.
I kinda wish I watched the movie without the outcome, it was already intense enough knowing the outcome, but if you didn't know it I can't imagine how intense that would be.
I was blown away by this movie and have already rewatched it several times. I'm shocked and disappointed that it didn't receive any Oscar nominations. All aspects of the movie (e.g. screenplay, directing, acting, cinematography, sound, music, set design) were so skillfully executed. Also, I love that it was Ron Howard making this film. Just like the emergency situation of Apollo 13, the subjects are subjected to the same constraint; the lack breathable atmosphere. I can't think of a filmmaker more suited to the story! Well done all!
He did a great job. Not familiar with him, but he played that part very well. He came in a little uncertain, seemed to get his confidence up, then had almost a complete meltdown at the worst possible time. Very believable and helped you understand how demanding this was for the divers. They gave up a lot.
This movie was spectacular..should definitely win an Oscar. RON HOWARD played attention to evert detail.yes I knew of this story qnd remember it well but had no idea how difficult it really was to take the boys out under anesthesia..showing that really gave me perspective on their journey to do so..also can't believe Viggo and Collin did everything without stunt doubles...well done!!!!
I think one of the revelations of the film was the anesthesia bit. I remember following the story when it was happening, but no 1 mentioned the anesthesia then
@@LindaC616 They said the boys were sedated. I knew that much. But actual anesthesia and an actual Australian anesthesiologist/diver actually administering it...I didn't know that. So yeah, the rescue was a MIND-BLOWING feat they pulled it off.
I just fishish watching the film, Congrat Ron you just made one of the most gut-wrenching drama/thriller this years even if we already know the outcome of this event, You still manage to made us feel what all these divers been going through and how impossible the situation really is, Bravo!
I have been cave diving for over twenty years and this is the only film I have ever seen that gives you an idea of what its like to be underwater in an overhead environment. Great job Ron, you really knocked this out of the park. "The Rescue" is a good watch also that is a Nat Geo documentary about this operation.
Now, the world will really see why it was a feat of heroes bordering on a miracle. Not only the diving covered great distances but also the space was so tight. And oh, did I mention they carried the boys and the coach all the way back. Prayer for the Thai Navy SEAL who lost his life.
@@DopamineDecor I wonder if it was one of the guys who stayed behind with the boys. Either way it's really sad to think of them both risking their lives to help and having to pay that sacrifice.
The passion this man exudes is extraordinary. The movie is fantastic. I personally don’t like tight spaces and as I was watching I had to stop to take breather. You basically feel you are in the same tight spaces of this cave; it’s very realistic. I actually thought they had filmed it in a cave somewhere.
Ron Howard has such an artisan's eye. His Masterclass is one of the few which are worth it by the way. You can also see his passion for teaching (actors and viewers) in this exact video.
I felt the same. Could you imagine sitting down with him and picking his brain for a few hours about some of the films that he has done? I'm sure some of the stories behind the scenes would be as good as this was.
This was genuinely one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. Truly thrilling. What a story. The filmmaking executed to perfection. And I love Ron's collaborative approach. Hats off to all involved.
Omg.This movie was an emotional roller-coaster. You have no sense of time as you are watching it. I actually had to pause it a few times just to calm down. The bravery of everyone involved and the resilience of the children and their coach was awe inspiring. If you haven't watched it please do. It is a wonderful reminder of how well humanity functions when we all come together for a greater cause
It's very rare that the movie is as good as the documentary. Ron Howard did a great job delivering the suspense and pressure of all the characters, that even when I knew the outcome, it kept me on the edge of my seat through out the entire movie.
Watches this movie last weekend. What an incredible story. And what a fantastic effort of Ron Howard to know when to keep a perfect story clean and original. Absolutely loved the movie. Was moved by the actual events when they happened, but I was unaware of the details portrayed in the film. Everyone should see this movie. Gives me hope for the future. So many heroes just walking among us. You’d never know.
Just watched on Prime..really admire the authenticity of the film, as a Thai living in Thailand and closely followed the news as it happened. The actors portaying the divers were brilliant and much applause to our Thai actors, Weir James Tui Tu and Ploy for really bringing to light the sacrifices made by the team and volunteers who made this miracle rescue a success. Thank you Ron Howard and crew for making this story known to the world through film. 🙏❤
I just finished watching the movie and I must say, it was a perfect piece of filmmaking! Even though I remembered the story and the outcome that gripped the world 4 years ago, the film was a rollercoaster ride. I don't think I've ever felt so much anxiety and tension in a film and yet so much joy. Well done everyone!
What a generous, humble shout-out to Sayombhu Mukdeeprom for his cinematography. I love seeing more known people (lead actors, directors, etc.) giving voice to the incredibly talented people who make these films special and memorable.
Unfortunately this actor died in 2022. He was great in the Thai production, Thai Cave Rescue. So sad he died so young.I can hardly wait to see Ron Howard's version.
We watched this just last night. Having spent a (seriously tiny) little time in caves, even for somewhat extended periods w our lights off waiting for others in our group...the anxiety this movie produced was real and intense. Cannot imagine the bravery of the men depicted in the movie. Kudos on a wonderful movie.
I've been both caving and diving, but never cave diving. After watching this movie I can tell you one thing for sure about cave diving....it'll never happen. lol
Ron, You make great films, but this one was more than great. Actors, production crews, producers, and of course the director clearly had all the inspiration necessary to make this film a success. By the way, nice music in the ending credits.
Great, great movie! The drama/suspense is brilliantly done. Yes, I knew the ultimate outcome because it really happened but I had no idea of what all went on. The way the world came together to save these 13 innocent lives gives hope to our existence. Another fantastic Ron Howard film.
@@351528 my husband is claustrophobic and will not watch it bc he watched the actual events on TH-cam with me. I'm claustrophobic in different places so I'm ok watching this. He's pissed with the boys and the coach knowing it's monsoon season and they still go..lol.. I'll continue watching them.
I'm also very claustrophobic and I don't do water stuff...this was tough to watch and it actually took me two days to complete it because my anxiety was through the roof.
It's a great film that I thoroughly enjoyed & will certainly watch again. It's also fascinating to listen to Ron Howard who is such a dedicated film maker bring that attention to detail within the film making process, as well as completely understanding the characters & the story to be truthfully told. I also salute Viggo Mortensen & Colin Farrell for their desire to, 'get their characters right' which can be said for every part they play.
I had seen the documentary but this is whole different level. Had to fast forward through some because of the anxiety level I was having. Bless all those that lived it!
Watched it last night. What a masterpiece! Thanks Mr. Howard, for telling this story. All the divers were heroes. My claustrophobia kicked into overdrive watching this. Just an amazing film! 🥰
Omg this movie had me all over the place it was everyone coming together and helping each other this was good movie the scene was so real omg they did so well with this. Had me crying ,scared, nervous. This was nerve racking. Hero's brought back in my living room
I can imagine this was a difficult film to edit. I saw this film and it really builds and builds and builds until the pressure, stress, terror come crashing down on the viewer. It was very well done. I had never experience a film like this before. Excellent film. I highly recommend it!! This is a true story. This actually happened!!
Haven’t seen anything insane and nerve racking like this in a long time! Amazing how they came with this rescue idea and crazy how it was filmed again to bring this amazing experience!
AMAZING MOVIE, even though we know the outcome, I still got the goose bumps, and shivers. I cried a lot watching this film, amazing to see when a community stands together. Hope these boy's are living a fantastic life.
TOO ADD ON, the description, and everything that was shown was spot on with what actually happen. When the boys were found they were wearing red jerseys, and the pipes the community use for the water all that, thank you for taking your time and showcasing this story
12:14 that is one of the reasons why james acting is so good ..... he always tries to be like the real character ... I mean he puts him self in the character place... he does it research about it too .... love ya jmj ❤
The movie opens following the boys as they gleefully run to the cave, and I can’t quite explain the slow building dread I genuinely felt watching them. It was a drawn out, tense moment even though you know what’s going to happen. In fact, knowing is what made it worse. I really applaud the whole team that made the film. They beautifully executed so many technical things that make this movie genuinely gripping.
It's interesting to listen to Howard break things down in this way-he's illustrating how effective leaders act in a team scenario. I generally find his films schmaltzy, they're just not for me, but I appreciate the way he shows how flexible he is. He mentions not giving too much instruction to his DP, for example, and describes why he admires the guy's skill. Effective leaders build teams of people they greatly respect and therefore trust to make their own decisions. The true talent of a leader is knowing when to step back and let the team do their thing, all while keeping an eye on the big picture. He is EXCITED by team members who have skill and talent he does not, and he nurtures them and guides them to using that talent to maximum effect. Bad leaders are THREATENED by team members who have skill and talent they themselves do not. Leadership is not about maintaining control. It's about knowing when and how to hand control over to others, but maintaining ownership of the ultimate outcome.
So real, honest, brutally raw, yet dramatic enough to keep the viewer engaged. Excellent movie. I never sit through long movies. And I really don't like watching movies with languages I don't understand. But this has all the elements to keep me on the edge of my seat start to finish. I ran out of tissues! I never realized just how scary this situation was when I heard about it on the news
Gripping film. Massively enjoyed it. As a diver myself it was extremely tense at many relatable points. Beautifully directed. I love the Thai people and their land so much
I saw the film at a theater with a screening with the cast. It was the most amazing, stressful experience of the year but so worth it! See in theaters!
For me, I was 10 years in Thaïland for sport, I know a little the Thai culture. This Moovie is the best of the years and far away. Run for the Oscars 🙏 Ron Howard, you are a genius 🙏
I saw the film twice. Yesterday and today. It just blows my mind. The film is incredible as the real history of it is. Those english man are a real herores, and of course the others ones than helped with the rescue mission. I love Viggo and Collin in this film !
Incredibly shot, amazing story even if you know the outcome, you don't know the details and how everyone helped to achieve this miracle Including ordinary villagers, it's amazing!
Ron Howard has nailed how to make a movie. And very eloquent when it comes to explaining it. Also, refreshingly humble. He says "in my opinion" as if his opinion isn't hard fought and won :)
I watched this film last night before bed and couldn’t sleep after it. I was so on edge after that I was wide awake after. Great film dedicated to some real life heroes.
This is really a great source of insight. Thank you so much for that 🙏.... Can anybody share his or her view on how they most probably approach on-set sound & dialogues recording?
Amazing. So well made. I had to remind myself it was a 're enactment when the man started slicing the bamboo to make piping. Brilliant movie. Oscar worthy 👏👏👏
This was very satisfying. Such an incredible movie, maybe the best I’ve seen in the last 2-3 years, and it was great to learn so much about how it was made.
This movie was excellent. The thing that struck me most was the sound design. That muffled metal-on-rock sound of the tanks scraping added so much to the feeling of claustrophobia.
I'm glad to have seen this just a few days after watching the movie. Ron Howard is a master at making these kinds of scenes come true. You would think it is impossible, but he did it. The set was so believable that even I was tricked into thinking it was real. All of the actors did a tremendous job especially the Thai boys. I'm sure for the Thai boys, making this movie had be a honor to tell the story of those who were trapped in the cave and to represent their country. The underwater scenes make me so nervous. In the past I have done both caving and diving, but never cave diving. After watching this movie I never will. The amount of anxiety I felt during those scenes was overwhelming.
The realism is amazing. It adds authenticity to the movie. Also, I'm not surprised that Viggo Mortensen asked to do all his diving scenes himself and not use a stunt double. The guy's a legend, so as Ron Howard.
This movie was incredible! I never felt such anxiety while watching a film. I had heard of the story but never knew the outcome. In a way I was finding out about it all for the first time. Incredibly done!

That's why people love working with him. Even James Cameron admit being in his set like attending a peaceful place
The three leads, Farrell, Mortensen and Edgerton have so much range as actors, all so underrated just like Ron Howard. Beautifully crafted movie
Well said I watched a documentary with the real people n man they all did such a fantastic,accurate portrayal of the people involved.
I got choked up watching the movie & the documentary.
Truly brilliant.
Word. Grade A actors who just don’t have the PR stardom like Brad Pitt or Di Caprio.
Colin Farrell was exceptional he disappeared into the role. Phenomenal performance.
Those actors are not underrated 😂😂😂😂
underrated? Howard has won two Academy Awards, four Emmys, a Grammy, two Golden Globes. I'll let you look up the movies the actors have been in (ever heard of Lord of the Rings) and awards they've won.

Haven’t seen anything insane and nerve racking like this in a long time! Amazing how they came with this rescue idea and crazy how it was filmed again to bring this amazing experience!
AMAZING MOVIE, even though we know the outcome, I still got the goose bumps, and shivers. I cried a lot watching this film, amazing to see when a community stands together. Hope these boy's are living a fantastic life.
TOO ADD ON, the description, and everything that was shown was spot on with what actually happen. When the boys were found they were wearing red jerseys, and the pipes the community use for the water all that, thank you for taking your time and showcasing this story
12:14 that is one of the reasons why james acting is so good ..... he always tries to be like the real character ... I mean he puts him self in the character place... he does it research about it too .... love ya jmj ❤
The movie opens following the boys as they gleefully run to the cave, and I can’t quite explain the slow building dread I genuinely felt watching them. It was a drawn out, tense moment even though you know what’s going to happen. In fact, knowing is what made it worse. I really applaud the whole team that made the film. They beautifully executed so many technical things that make this movie genuinely gripping.
Oh wow great breakdown he is so passionate and sincere love this
It's interesting to listen to Howard break things down in this way-he's illustrating how effective leaders act in a team scenario. I generally find his films schmaltzy, they're just not for me, but I appreciate the way he shows how flexible he is. He mentions not giving too much instruction to his DP, for example, and describes why he admires the guy's skill. Effective leaders build teams of people they greatly respect and therefore trust to make their own decisions. The true talent of a leader is knowing when to step back and let the team do their thing, all while keeping an eye on the big picture. He is EXCITED by team members who have skill and talent he does not, and he nurtures them and guides them to using that talent to maximum effect. Bad leaders are THREATENED by team members who have skill and talent they themselves do not. Leadership is not about maintaining control. It's about knowing when and how to hand control over to others, but maintaining ownership of the ultimate outcome.
So real, honest, brutally raw, yet dramatic enough to keep the viewer engaged. Excellent movie. I never sit through long movies. And I really don't like watching movies with languages I don't understand. But this has all the elements to keep me on the edge of my seat start to finish. I ran out of tissues! I never realized just how scary this situation was when I heard about it on the news
Gripping film. Massively enjoyed it. As a diver myself it was extremely tense at many relatable points. Beautifully directed. I love the Thai people and their land so much
Thank you so much for your kindest words. 🙏🇹🇭💕
OMG he is so smart I could listen to him talk for hours, Bryce is so lucky to have his as a father!
so nice to have a proper director directing a proper movie with proper actors and crew. these have been sorely missed as of late.
Beautiful film, great performances, a tremendous team effort. Hope it wins lots of awards.
Ron is so professional and skilled at what he does
I saw the film at a theater with a screening with the cast. It was the most amazing, stressful experience of the year but so worth it! See in theaters!
For me,
I was 10 years in Thaïland for sport, I know a little the Thai culture.
This Moovie is the best of the years and far away.
Run for the Oscars 🙏
Ron Howard, you are a genius 🙏
Fascinating movie. Thanks, Ron. It really needed to be made. Virgo and Colin were great. The whole thing was just scary and perfect.
As someone who has Thai blood and has spent years living in Thailand, thank you for telling this story.
I saw the film twice. Yesterday and today. It just blows my mind. The film is incredible as the real history of it is. Those english man are a real herores, and of course the others ones than helped with the rescue mission. I love Viggo and Collin in this film !
He really turned out to be an outstanding director. Always been a good guy.
One of the great movies this year. Glad I watched it yesterday.
Incredibly shot, amazing story even if you know the outcome, you don't know the details and how everyone helped to achieve this miracle Including ordinary villagers, it's amazing!
That set design was so convincing we were sure it was all location shooting. Oscar-worthy.
Ron Howard has nailed how to make a movie. And very eloquent when it comes to explaining it.
Also, refreshingly humble. He says "in my opinion" as if his opinion isn't hard fought and won :)
Dang, I had no idea a movie directed by Ron starring Viggo even existed! Now there's something I wanna watch ASAP!
I think you accomplished all those goals at the end Ron. I had so much anxiety throughout this film, it was that engaging. Great story, great job 👏🏼
I watched this film last night before bed and couldn’t sleep after it. I was so on edge after that I was wide awake after. Great film dedicated to some real life heroes.
This is really a great source of insight. Thank you so much for that 🙏.... Can anybody share his or her view on how they most probably approach on-set sound & dialogues recording?
Ron Howard is the best of of best!! Thank you for making this film & for making it so perfectly.
Even tho I already knew the outcome my anxiety level were like 📈📈📈 wathing the movie. Props to the entire team.
I knew Sam well. Consider him a close friend. Can’t bring myself to watch the movie just yet. Working up to it.
Ron Howard is such an engaging and dynamic speaker.. I loved the topic and his insight.
Amazing. So well made. I had to remind myself it was a 're enactment when the man started slicing the bamboo to make piping. Brilliant movie. Oscar worthy 👏👏👏
This was very satisfying. Such an incredible movie, maybe the best I’ve seen in the last 2-3 years, and it was great to learn so much about how it was made.
This movie was excellent. The thing that struck me most was the sound design. That muffled metal-on-rock sound of the tanks scraping added so much to the feeling of claustrophobia.
I have watched plenty of documentaries and videos about this, so I knew most of the key elements. and still, I was in with the suspense... great movie
Best movie in years. Awesome job.
Thank you Ron, master piece in capturing the best of what humanity can be.
I'm glad to have seen this just a few days after watching the movie. Ron Howard is a master at making these kinds of scenes come true. You would think it is impossible, but he did it. The set was so believable that even I was tricked into thinking it was real. All of the actors did a tremendous job especially the Thai boys. I'm sure for the Thai boys, making this movie had be a honor to tell the story of those who were trapped in the cave and to represent their country. The underwater scenes make me so nervous. In the past I have done both caving and diving, but never cave diving. After watching this movie I never will. The amount of anxiety I felt during those scenes was overwhelming.
Wow. Knowing now that the actors did the dive scenes IRL, so much more impressive and it comes through in the film for sure
Mr Ron Howard, this is your best movie ever! It topped all your other movies
I’m a grateful for the amount of Thai spoken in the movie. It was their story, and I really felt the respect towards that in the movie.
Unbelievable film. Ron Howard does it again!
I just visited this cave, could only go in about 5% of the way to where the boys were. It was scary
The realism is amazing. It adds authenticity to the movie. Also, I'm not surprised that Viggo Mortensen asked to do all his diving scenes himself and not use a stunt double. The guy's a legend, so as Ron Howard.
Amazing event. Great rendition. Happy days ! Sorry couldn't help myself.
Thank you Ron for this film. Truly emphases the amazing resilience of humanity.
Watched it last night, and its an incredible film - kudos to everyone involved.
Terrific film. Moved me to tears of joy.
Kudos to all the actors and Mr. Howard. One of the best movies seen in a long time out of Hollyweird...
This movie was incredible! I never felt such anxiety while watching a film. I had heard of the story but never knew the outcome. In a way I was finding out about it all for the first time. Incredibly done!
