My boyfriend and I sat down and watched this late last night for the first time…let me just say we were hooked. We are still talking about it. It’s one of the movies that makes you think outside of your comfort zone. The acting was superb and nothing short of excellent. I mean Benedict Cumberbatch and Kirsten Dunst??? Hell of a cast. Awesome job👍👍
Personally I never got on the Jane train, and even I liked this movie about hiding your homosexuality beneath the mask of cowboy bravado.... I just liked the Sisters Brothers more... but that's because I prefer comedy to drama...
@@johnedwardkerr7814 I also think it's about having lost your husband and thinking that when you remarry you will be happy again but you feel a total outsider in your new husband's house.
I completely agree with your evaluation. Stayed up late, around 1am, and became so enthralled in the film (which I put on by happenstance) I had to keep watching. Film was fascinating!!
This is one of my favourite movies of the year. The Piano is still my favourite Jane Campion movie, this is my second favourite. I'm glad to see a film like this exists. Rarely we get western movies nowadays :(
This film, "Last Night in Soho", and "The Tragedy of Macbeth" are all my favorite films of 2021. Top-notch production designs, haunting scores, exquisite performances, and some of the best writing and directing this year. That's those qualities of what the three films have in common.
great analysis of an excellent movie! You saved me a lot of pondering. It's brilliant that Peter's sexuality stayed ambiguous through the end, and the gayness of Bronco and Phil was revealed. I got switch of the power dynamic in the cigarette and "naked?" scene, but didn't want to believe that Peter killed Phil intentionally until you explained it. Bravo!
What a great movie , thank you Jane ! I couldn’t tell how much I was indulged with the slow developing characters from each actors ! The ending was jaw- dropped and kept me thinking of the dark side that a person can be ! Salute to everyone ! Great cinematography and directing , hats off to Ben , Jesse , Kristen, Codi ! really like it so much and will watch it again ! For those who didn’t see this movie yet, please do not miss it !
This movie is so good. The feeling I felt while watching it is so different compared to other films. I’m trying to find smth similar to this but nothing come close
Geeez, am I the only one who thought Peter is a psychopath? Kind of like Dexter, a psychopath who eliminates other psychopaths. Even Peter's father recognized his son's lack of empathy, saying he didn't think the boy had enough kindness.
That was also what I thought! But in comments about the film I rarely see someone who sees Peter as such. From the beginning I sensed that Peter was way more dangerous than Phil
I understand your point , and we are both right , but I wanted the film have character development , (for example the tension with the brother, the wife become an alcoholic, the sudden marriage , the refusal to go to the dinner party, the murder all seemed
Don't think it will. It's shot well but you think it'll beat West Side Story or Dune? Whichever movie wins, it'll only be because they snubbed The Green Knight though.
The Green Knight or Gaia should have won, but you know how the Oscar's are about underperformed horror films, even if Gaia was just the most beautiful thing shot this year...
This is a slow-burn type movie but if you like that kind of thing then you'll like this. Not as complex or epic as There Will be Blood or Talented Mr Ripley but I can see the connection. It leans more psychological thriller than western. Always happy to see Kirsten dunst in anuthing.
The cattle in this film were awesome. The colors each cow possessed, the way they walked, the way they would utter each mooooo in that special way that only cows can. That was really cool that the cattle were brought to New Zealand from Montana for that touch of realism. I think the film would have been better if one of the herd was picked out and brought in to direct.
I think Phil had no where to go with his sexual needs. Bronco brought him into a relationship and finding another one like it was going to be hard to find. Specially early 1900s. Even the porn had to be hidden. The brother had more opportunities to find love. And he did. Peter was a feminine, long slender, lanky, artsy, caring, considerate, loving, but not gay. Jane shows you the difficulty in finding honesty and living honestly as a human.
I saw an interview with the horse later on and he was gushing about the director in the movie and the setting and the cast and said after he saw the final product he was sure they were going to get an Oscar since everybody involved is a creative intellectual genius and that he would gladly go through it all over again just to work with Jane.
Seeing Jane for the first time with her difficult glasses already made me feel a bit suspicious. Then I heard Al Pacino tell the following, and to me, she fell right through the basket. Real hard. Real fast. And For Ever. Read this, please. On a talkshow, Jane said to Venus and Serena Williams: " You two are a marvel. But you don't have to compete against men, like I do." I'm sorry. Is this pompous, narcist, borderline, or all of the above. She couldn't have said anything more sexist and condescending. I definitely gave up on Jane. What you think, should I still give the movie a chance? (Of course I will. I'm not like her)
Everything was beautiful but I thought the movie sucked.. is it just me? It stays at a 2 out of 10 on the climax scale the entire length of the film. It reached a 5 just listening to the sound of thousands of cattle stomping and that was it. I don’t know, I guess it’s not my kind of burn. Like watching paint dry and it it’s not the color you thought it was
With that logic, neither The Good, the bad and the ugly, A fistful of dollars or Once upon a time in the west would be considered "real cowboy flicks", and those are probably some of the most iconic westerns there are. It's a movie *about* the american west, that's what makes it a western.
There were insufficient infrastructures in actual western US. Filming in NZ, with the old timey natural landscape was the next best thing. All in the middle of covid, might I add. Such a pretentious comment
The only disappointment I have with this film is that I didn’t see it in the movie theatre. Such a masterpiece.
that's your own fault :)
i know!!

Jane went missing for like… 10 years and came back full force with this masterpiece
Personally I never got on the Jane train, and even I liked this movie about hiding your homosexuality beneath the mask of cowboy bravado.... I just liked the Sisters Brothers more... but that's because I prefer comedy to drama...
Yeah we kept moving but she kept finding us
Would have been much less painfull for everyone who watched this shitpiece if she kept missing
@@johnedwardkerr7814 I also think it's about having lost your husband and thinking that when you remarry you will be happy again but you feel a total outsider in your new husband's house.
@@bendyStraws3Lz How is that a shit movie ?
What a life achievement, Benedict. Jane and the wonderful cast drew it out. Thank you.
I completely agree with your evaluation. Stayed up late, around 1am, and became so enthralled in the film (which I put on by happenstance) I had to keep watching. Film was fascinating!!
Kirsten Dunst is such an icon! I smell an Oscar Nom!!!
You smelled right 😬
Kirsten Durnst was insane!! Benedict too! Such fantastic acting
It kills me Benedict got passed over for a guy who can’t control his temper.

The Sisters Brothers was great. Reminded me of how good westerns like Cheyenne Social Club used to be... the book was a great read too.
That's the first review I've head for Soho, but you've put it with good company... now I'll have to see it.
Impeccable cinematography, perfect ensemble..best movie of the year hands down!!!
They created a masterpiece

Superb movie, and the behind the scenes shows the mastery of how it was all done. Brilliant
Great insight into the making of the movie! ✌️♥️
Awesome acting from everyone…and the setting becomes another character.
This movie is so good. The feeling I felt while watching it is so different compared to other films. I’m trying to find smth similar to this but nothing come close
I’ve seen this movie about 5 times. It touches on so much of the human experience now, but seen within a bubble of a time and place.
This is great thanks for posting this. Great film.
This movie was a lot darker than I thought it would be.

Beautiful Just Beautiful 😍 🤩 😃🥰 This reminds me of the Beauty of: “Days of Heaven” with Richard Gear ⚙️ 1978’
Brilliant movie. My best for 2021
Loved this film! - Tim
one of the best movies i have ever seen.
It's fantastic. Campion officially joined the cinematic Pantheon with this.
Im in loveeee with this movie
Sounds great!
Maravillosa película bella luz grandioso DOP
A masterpiece on every level 😊
Oscars for everybody!
I loved this movie.
Well, someone had to. Just don't think Fat Damon deserved an Oscar nod.
And love means never having to say you are sorry!
AWESOME.
@Lireta Miah YOU ARE SOO HOT
I understand your point , and we are both right , but I wanted the film have character development , (for example the tension with the brother, the wife become an alcoholic, the sudden marriage , the refusal to go to the dinner party, the murder all seemed
Such a great and excellent film
Could become the first film photographed by a woman, to win the cinematography Oscar.
🤞🤞🤞
SHE BETTER
Don't think it will. It's shot well but you think it'll beat West Side Story or Dune? Whichever movie wins, it'll only be because they snubbed The Green Knight though.
@@treytison1444 Yeah Dune has a great shot to win. Gold Derby had it in first place last time I checked.
The Green Knight or Gaia should have won, but you know how the Oscar's are about underperformed horror films, even if Gaia was just the most beautiful thing shot this year...
This is a slow-burn type movie but if you like that kind of thing then you'll like this. Not as complex or epic as There Will be Blood or Talented Mr Ripley but I can see the connection. It leans more psychological thriller than western. Always happy to see Kirsten dunst in anuthing.
Please make closed captioning available!
I'm not sure I can watch it. Maybe in parts? Survivors of abuse might find it too much, it's already got my gut churning and anxiety off the charts.
Don't be scared . You survived Trump Abuse for many years!
Wonderful movie. I felt the suffering of Phil, cause it happened to me.
The acting of Codi Smit will be in my mind for long.
Sounds intriguing.
The tragic thing is there are still people like Phil out there...
The cattle in this film were awesome. The colors each cow possessed, the way they walked, the way they would utter each mooooo in that special way that only cows can. That was really cool that the cattle were brought to New Zealand from Montana for that touch of realism.

Cows are really people without boobs .
Very droll 😂
@@chrissaunders7634 And People are Boobs.
i think phil is jealous of his brother and the direction his life is taking him.
Yup, because he still living in past while the world coming to change.
I think Phil had no where to go with his sexual needs. Bronco brought him into a relationship and finding another one like it was going to be hard to find. Specially early 1900s. Even the porn had to be hidden.
The brother had more opportunities to find love. And he did.
Peter was a feminine, long slender, lanky, artsy, caring, considerate, loving, but not gay.
Jane shows you the difficulty in finding honesty and living honestly as a human.
@@NEMO-NEMO I think Peter is gay as well, the one male friend from university he talked about to his mother may be his boyfriend.
Masterpiece
Stan Peter
Standing Peter?? What??
@@Kexgoija I said Stan Peter
@@r8bb1t24 Peter stands , too.
Ribbit! Ribbit!!
Disturbing, dark, slow-burn, cerebral. Lesson; don't mess with smart people :).
Zowie!
Should have got Best Picture!
Nope. Not by a mile.
do they even have actual film?.. isn't it all digital now a days?.... the still say film
What is going to happen when a feminist, straight guy, play a Homophobic, gay guy? Right he is going to get an Oscar 😂🏆
I never read the book and I thought they were gonna go full Brokeback Mountain at some points 😂
I love his understated Performance and hope he's not runner up again, Andrew Garfield?
Many so-called Straights are Gay Curious. Still figuring out sexuality
I'd be surprised if ~Fat Damon~ (Jesse Plemmons) wins for this role, but it's about time he won for something...
Reframing? More like revising.
I didn't like the movie. But were there really no gays over there at all?
be great if they could telll a story without abusing animals for profit hmmmm?????

Dont care
well she said like it is,and im gonna also say like it is, you are a fuckin moron
She was making a comment about how misogynistic hollywood is. How predators like Harvey Weinstein are enabled by the hollywood system.

Suck Movie? Hmmmmm
Umm not filmed in the western USA, not a real cowboy flick, this film needs to be taken to the Train Station.

Garbage movie.
That must mean good. A little originality for a change. Foddle-dee-dee. It hit a nerve! What a compliment!!
