Agreed! Yoakham nailed that angry-at-the-world sociopathic Doyle and Ritter (may he rest in peace) was so perfect as the caring, concerned gay friend. The entire cast was amazing, even Doyle's friends in this scene and you really came away feeling that these people and their problems were real.
I will NEVER get tired of watching Dwight Yoakum in Sling Blade! I've never seen a non actor do such a great job at acting. I can't stop watching this!
I agree Dwight is extremely good in this movie. It's almost like he's a natural Psycho. I dunno maybe he's got a bolt loose and this is norm after he has a few drinks.
The way I see it, Doyle was the protagonist of this film. He had a dream of forming the most epic band of all time. All of the other characters were standing in the way of his vision.
Any actor who can make me HATE his character from the beginning of the film and carry that hatred through til the end gets my highest kudos...Yoakum totally nailed this! Agree, absolutely Oscar-worthy. Thank you, Dwight!
I always loved how randy stared him down all the way out the door and Doyle looked at the floor and hes the only one that doesn't say a word. He was staring at him like...feeling froggy? Jump
I was in club bands in Alabama, Georgia, and TN for 30 years. I have seen that band scene play out in real life quite a few times. It is a masterpiece of a scene. There are A LOT of people like Doyle in the south..... every little town has 2 or 3 just like him.
@@andreagamer9146 he probably wouldn't actually hurt them badly other than psychologically. I had one friend in grade school that had an alcoholic father. When I first slept over at his house we came in at 3:30 pm and his dad was asleep. He told me if we woke his dad up he would throw the alarm clock at our heads. Another friend I had, his step dad shot his mother in their kitchen and killed her. So you never can tell. A lot of southern women get tired of it and go off. I know a woman that cooked a big skillet of food to boiling hot. Her husband came in drunk and hit her......she threw the pan of food directly into his face. He never bothered her again....even after he healed.....
Goes to show most oscar judges have never seen a drunken outburst to the max. Doyles shouting reminds me of many who just blew up at any point, damn realistic I'd say.
Michael Burke Im thinking it was improv, they probably told him to just get angry and let it flow. Could you imagine the set after he delivered this verbal abuse lol..
Doyle is hands down my all-time favorite movie villain. I've seen many horror movies, but none of them are as scary as him. There are thousands if not millions of men and women on this Earth right now who are just like him.
I saw this in the theater, and I distinctly remember this scene getting the best reaction from the crowd. I knew I'd remember seeing this great movie for the rest of my life.
What makes Dwight's performance so amazing and believable is that there are characters just like this in rural parts like the Midwest. I grew up near the Arkansas border and I knew a few cards just like Doyle. When they were drinking, they had fleeting moments where they'd be a decent human you could tolerate. Few more drinks in they'd become a tyrant with explosive outbursts. They'd preach their remorse two days later, and then do it again. Their circle would often have the two other drunks who were just as miserable. Usually, there'd be one who's timid and hangs around just because they have no one else to drink with, so they take the insults and the shoves. The more explosive they were, typically the weaker they were.
The thing is, Dwight doesn't enjoy playing the villain in movies. He's actually a really nice guy in real life. He hates playing the ashole. But he's so goddamn good at it.
One 7 Decimal 2 Eight the same goes for the guy who played Percy Whitemore in the Green Mile, both characters are truly despicable while the actors portraying them are I’m pretty sure decent enough guys.
oh god, I know its horrible but the part where he pushes the guy in the wheelchair into the door and when he tells all his bandmates they suck( We don't need to fucking practice RANDY!) is like one of the funniest things ever.. Dwight Yoakum was suprisingly so good in this film, not to mention a great musician as well in real life.. alot of amazing people in that room... the late John Ritter (RIP), Billy Bob Thornton, Dwight Yoakum and then that kid from Remember the Titans who was like 10 in this beating the shit out of Randy with Beer cans in his underwear.
Why cut out Frank pelting Doyle with everything but the kitchen sink? That was a great ending to the best scene in this great movie. Want to rid your house of unwanted guests, act like Doyle.
I thought Doyle served two purposes. He's the bad guy and also was really the funniest character. I know it's Dwight and I'm laughing at just how evil he makes the character. Brilliant acting job.
This scene shows how good of an actor Dwight Yokum is , you know your a good actor when people hate the role you play in this movie. Dwight should have gotten the academy award for the role he played in sling blade.
Doyle showing his true Aries color....amen. fucken self styled masters of the universe that more often then not end up alienating everyone in their lives dying alone and deserving it
No music. Nothing to elevate the tension. Makes it so real, almost like you’re right there in that living room. Fantastic scene, even if his tantrum does make me laugh every time 😂 RANDY YOU TOONIN SUNOFA BITCH
7:09 "I'll be setting here waiting on yee. Doyle said besides sending the poleece, you might want to send an amblence or a herst" Savage burn on Doyle, after the fact!
This movie caused me to use the word "hearst" for years, thinking thats how it was pronounced. Then one, day my dad told me how it was really pronounced and asked if i spent all my childhood years and well into my late teens really thinking thats how it was pronounced.
Yoakam is insanely good. Doyle is simultaneously weak, pathetic, terrifying, unpredictable, evil, and legitimately hilarious.
It's criminal that both Dwight and John Ritter were not recognized for their amazing work in this film.
Agreed! Yoakham nailed that angry-at-the-world sociopathic Doyle and Ritter (may he rest in peace) was so perfect as the caring, concerned gay friend. The entire cast was amazing, even Doyle's friends in this scene and you really came away feeling that these people and their problems were real.
They was
@@DarlingNikki2 Yea, the man in the tan onesie wasn’t acting.
criminal? what a word.
They were recognized… screw Oscar’s … Brie Larson has one and Lucille ball does not
I will NEVER get tired of watching Dwight Yoakum in Sling Blade! I've never seen a non actor do such a great job at acting. I can't stop watching this!
He wasn't a non-actor. He trained extensively in acting before deciding to go with a musical career.
I had no idea. I just looked it up and sure enough he’s a musician. Unbelievable he acted that well.
I agree Dwight is extremely good in this movie. It's almost like he's a natural Psycho. I dunno maybe he's got a bolt loose and this is norm after he has a few drinks.
@@mingo7767 Dwight's a teetotaler, doesn't drink. He was very involved with theater in his younger days though.
@@bassage13 Dwight proved beyond doubt that he is a Bona Fide actor in slingblade.He was great in Logan,s Run too.He is just an exceptional talent.🥰🥰🥰
Dwight nailed that role. Perfect. Brilliant.
Yeah man that role was flawless, I never knew dwight could act that good! He definately got robbed of a oscar!
What a sweetheart character he played. Hated his guts! Which means he was perfect. What a great performance!
Sean Maher ironically Billy Bob played the role of a drunk crazy son of a bitch like Doyle in Bad Santa
And Carl nailed Doyle perfectly...
@@Jabahonky12 "I never knew dwight could act that good!"
Yeah, from what I hear about him, that character wasn't much of a stretch for him.
"You all don't shut up I'm gonna go out of my mind...besides, Carl here is liable to bust a spring...he's already off balance."
Yea I loved that part I laughed liked crazy
My favorite line
Brilliant
Doyle is the shit. One of the best things about that great movie.
I lose it every time he pushes the dude in the wheelchair into the door.
One time i came across a looped video on youtube of that... It was for like 5 hours straight LOL.
Mee too!! Dwight needs an oscar. If he didnt get one.
that "Dude" was Vic Chestnut. FMI en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vic_Chesnutt
I hate to laugh at it, but I can't help it
Doyle is the the true hero of this film
Dwight Yoakam did such a great job in this movie. He should've been given an oscar for his role here.
I believe every community in the south has its own Doyle Hargrave.
Yes sir. If not every, every other.
Like 95% of the population wtf you should travel
I am Doyle fool
North, east, & west too! 🤣
You know better then to talk like that when I'm hurting Linda ....
The way I see it, Doyle was the protagonist of this film. He had a dream of forming the most epic band of all time. All of the other characters were standing in the way of his vision.
+P Dizzle lolololol
Funny thing, I seen Doyle in concert this summer. He was outstanding
P Dizzle he is amazing!
P Dizzle this is the best interpretation for sure. Doyles untimely demise only adds to his mythos. Better to burn out than fade away
"You're all a bunch of losers! I'm the only sane sun of a bitch in this house!" -The late Doyle Hardgrave
Any actor who can make me HATE his character from the beginning of the film and carry that hatred through til the end gets my highest kudos...Yoakum totally nailed this! Agree, absolutely Oscar-worthy. Thank you, Dwight!
I believe Doyle is the nephew of nurse Ratchet.
Thing is, I always liked his character. Explains a lot about me lol
I wish Doyle was my friend
Not pictured " Hey I told you 3 times already, the laws on my side, I play cards with JD Shellnut, chief of po-lice"
We can't be a happy family with him living in the garage, comin in the bedroom at 4 in the mornin carrying hammers and shit
Best comment hands down!
Good comment, one of the best ive seen.
Carl can stay, if he wants to! Mama said that...
WHAT'D I TELL YOU 'BOU'TS YOUR MAMA?
You have to admit that he does have a good point there.
Dwight Yoakam was a genius in this! A superb actor indeed!
INDEED HE WAS! Should've got best supporting actor!!!
That wasn't acting he didn't even know the camera was on!
One of the most underrated performances in the history of motion pictures.
rushnut1958 I know right, you really hate the guy all throughout the movie.
Yeah,i'm watching it right now on tv,and there is nothing about this guy to like,not even one scene whwre you can feel sorry foe him.
That n, Cool hand Luke..
“ how does a feller go about getting hold of the po-lice” is for sure the most gangster shit anyone has ever said.
Doyle said yo wanna bring a ambulance... or a hurst

"I just thought I'd stop by and bring ya'll some happiness" Doyle Hargrave
Well... at least he's trying.
This is my fav. Doyle quote
A little piece of happiness
This is one of my favorite movies, John Ritter was a fantastic talent
jimmy page...I agree with you, 👍i think he was very underrated.
Dwight was cheated out of an Oscar nomination.
Goes to show most oscar judges have never seen a drunken outburst to the max. Doyles shouting reminds me of many who just blew up at any point, damn realistic I'd say.
AGREED 100%
Dominic Molina best thing to happened to Doyle. Carl giving him peace
I always laughed at Doyle's half-assed attempt at apologizing for his flying off the handle drunk and saying he acted "assholish".
You know I can't hold my lunch around a midget or a piece of antique furniture.

It would never cross my mind to call someone a Fuckin Buzzard.

Probably but I can also see Billy Bob writing that line as well. Great line nonetheless. I'm gonna have to pop it in this week and give it a watch.
I thought it was “stay outta my face ya fucking pussy!” ….?
He deserved an Academy award for his amazing portrayal of Doyle.he was superb
Doyle is hands down my all-time favorite movie villain. I've seen many horror movies, but none of them are as scary as him. There are thousands if not millions of men and women on this Earth right now who are just like him.
Thumbs up if Morris IS a genius!

The dots are where I say they are.
MORRIS, YOU FUCK'N GENIUS!!!
Leavin his soooooul!
@Christopher MacDonald lmfao
If it weren't for Dwight this movie would have been average.
Agreed.
Sure but billy is one of the best american actors imo
All the actors jelled perfectly in this movie .
So true
I saw this in the theater, and I distinctly remember this scene getting the best reaction from the crowd. I knew I'd remember seeing this great movie for the rest of my life.
That first guy should be on the radio. He's got a radio voice
A radio voice
and a radio face
Lot of great acting in this movie. I have Dvd at home. Love it and Dwights Music!! ❤️🙏💯👍👌
"You know better then to talk to me like that when im hurtin' Linda! Don't make me knock the piss outta you."

What makes Dwight's performance so amazing and believable is that there are characters just like this in rural parts like the Midwest.

This has motivated me to go start a shitty band if for no other reason then to have a meltdown like Doyle
Rizzo323 and you can count, on me meeting you in the parking lot
A band outta know its limitations
I play cards with the sherrif...So kiss my ass
The band scene had me in fits of laughter
I was hollering laughing, and still do😂
Brilliant edit. The bit in the middle, "flowers is purty"? Genius.
LMFAO hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha
Dwight’s performance in Sling Blade and Tim McGraw in Friday Night Lights…role models lol.
Both of them country music stars playing an asshole character in a movie with. Illy Bob and Lucas Black
I have never been drunk enough to tell someone to like; "If you're gonna kill me" and give instructions like Doyle did.
Youd be surprised, when someone fixin to fix ya
@@thatdude3977 It would sober my ass up.
He did say he wasn't scared of nothing. I guess he meant it lol
29 people don't like the "dot dot dots"

This is a favorite movie of law enforcement officers because they all know these people and have to deal with them constantly.
Every member of Doyle's band are actual musicians in real life.
"now, karl, i don't believe i hit you, did i? so no apology necessary, i guess." one of doyle's rare moments of sensitivity.HAHA
The thing is, Dwight doesn't enjoy playing the villain in movies. He's actually a really nice guy in real life. He hates playing the ashole. But he's so goddamn good at it.
Exactly. That line is such a tell-tale of this character!
🤣
he does an amazing job of making the audience despise him.
One 7 Decimal 2 Eight the same goes for the guy who played Percy Whitemore in the Green Mile, both characters are truly despicable while the actors portraying them are I’m pretty sure decent enough guys.
Before I get too mad to turn back!!
That one always kills me
Doyle is the best asshole out of any character in any movie I have ever seen. very convincing.
Dwight Yoakam... what more can I say. Brilliant!
Send an amberlamps.... or a hearst.

He was from Friday Night Lights but I agree with everything you said
I always thought it interesting that Doyle seemed resigned to death, like he was so miserable that he just didn't fight it.
Andrew Clover he wasn’t “resigned” for death, he underestimated Karl and thought he wouldn’t do it.
@@thomasraines1396all of the above
@@seltonk5136 fair enough.
This movie will forever be great...it needs more recognition.
Why cut out Frank pelting Doyle with everything but the kitchen sink? That was a great ending to the best scene in this great movie. Want to rid your house of unwanted guests, act like Doyle.
Super acting on the kid's behalf, he really goes off in that scene, superb!!
Baking the cookies of discontent. The voice and delivery. Master class.
Dwight Yokam deserved the Academy Award for this portrayal. Most of us know or related to a Doyle .
