Mick crunching his head into the tree branch was so perfect-along with him shaving with a Bic disposable and seeing Sue approaching pulls his knife out like he's shaving with it.
Dundee hacia creer a la periodista que se arreglaba con lo básico y nada de nada además de la Gillette seguro que tenía en la selva Wifi esmartphone etc🤭😁 pero que delante de Sue lo ocultaba y no lo utilizaba.👋
Sue Charlton: That croc was going to eat me alive. Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: Well, I wouldn't hold that against him. Same thought crossed my mind once or twice.
I agree l love the water but not a dirty swamp. I’m sure if it was in America it would of had a do not swim and do not drink and dangerous animals sign 🪧. lol 😆
This is actually the perfect example of a movie scene using humor to disarm an audience and then catch them off-guard for the shock just around the corner. CROCODILE DUNDEE is underappreciated for its great writing and directing.
one example for me how clever the writing was ,to catch the american religious audience ,was when he mentioned he'd read the bible once ,and jesus and the apostles were fishermen ,just like me .straight to heaven for me. very very clever. i smell "strop"[Hogue's dumb mate ] there ,who was very clever. they were marketing geniuses.
I've got lots of questions. 1. Why is his chest naked? Isn't it logical to cover it from insects, spiders, sun? Do they really go like this in Australia? 2. Why is she wearing swimsuit? It's synthetic and definitely not good in hot weather 3. She really going to drink this dirty water? and lots of other questions Anyway, great movie. maybe I watch it again just for nostalgia
1986!!!???!!!???!!! Dang, time goes by so fast! This was so incredible because no one expected this kind of puppetry to be used! It wasn't a Sci-Fi or a Horror movie, so it was BRILLIANT! I think I was 23 when this came out in the theaters.
I know Dundee is a fictional character. But he's a badass. How he looks, how he talks, and of course that huge bowie knife. No one else could have played him. No one.
Of course-it uses the old tried and true formula-first she travels across the water to visit him in his jungle, then he relocates to the big city to visit her. In each case one of them is a fish out of water while the other is at home. Worked for Tarzan and King Kong.
@@Mark-px8jt Play it at 25% speed, you'll see it breaks before Dundee gets there, he stabs the knife one-time into the crocs head. Truth be told, a croc that big against woman her size there would be no tug-of-war struggle, either the strap breaks immediately or she is pulled in the water immediately.
In the theater this was abrupt and shocking, with the music so angelic before the croc strike. Years later, after actually witnessing a crocodile pouncing on its prey and both quickly vanishing under the water this scene is doubly frightening.
me too, didn't know much about crocs then, but thanks to all those BBC nature videos, she'd been toast in a second. A croc that big would pulll you in quick, not struggling with a canteen cord from pulling you into the drink
fantastic scene made more dramatic by dundee kopping a look, braining himself on the branch, the certain death situation followed by the rescue. humour to terror to relief in 30 seconds. modern writers cant manage this in a 2 hour movie.
The crocodile was real just like this movie you watch my movie of my life mate everything is disaster I saw things I wish I never saw I’m disappointed with everything
@@ephraimgarrett4727 -- haha, you misunderstand. What I mean is: your line sounds like something that James Bond would say - we can imagine Connery or Moore tossing off that line if they did that feat.
I was born in the late 70's, so I was too young to truly comprehend the cinematic value of this scene and what it did to further the plot of the movie.
It's not you. So much better then. Movies, music and no wokisms. Nobody even knew the political leanings of each other. We were too busy enjoying life.
Great movie but this scene is completely ridiculous. A 10 Foot Croc would drag all 103lbs of her into the water without burning a single calorie. This Croc is supposed to be 20 Feet Long and weigh 2,500lbs. This can't happen unless she's Superwoman.
I believe how hard those scales are that it would take a monstrous sized knife to get through all of that. I heard a story about a crocodile or alligator got ahold of a small dog, and the owner jumped on top of the animal and started punching away on it but he said the scales on that thing felt like punching stone, he cut up his knuckles badly so he gouged out the animals eyes and it leg go but the dog died from its wounds. Amazing how powerful some of those creatures are
I was and I am still working as a graphic designer and car wrapper. Me and my boys did the layout and realization of that crocodile shaped Audi R8 that won the American LeMans series in 1999. Final race took place in Adelaide, Audi motorsports wanted something extraordinary so we came up with the Paul Hogan inspired idea of the Crocodile Dundee R8 and they loved it all. This just as a little side story to this wonderful movie that will still be watched decades from now.
I always wondered how on earth she found that water appealing, like nothing in her head was going: "I'm in croc country, that's probably a bad idea" And did you see the size of that thing?!!! lol XD
@@3dmaster205 and if she hadn't gone off alone in the Australian outback while being completely unfamiliar with the area he wouldn't of followed her in the first place. Peeping Tom or not that was very dumb of her
Watching it in slow-mo, right after he's on the move, the canteen strap breaks and she falls back, then he does the killing blow. So she might have been able to get away before the croc drops the canteen and makes another attempt. Odd that she looked right into the camera; I thought actors weren't supposed to do that? Either it was to see the panic in her eyes better or it was a goof?
i prefer the scene immediately following Sue Charlton complains that croc was going to eat me alive. Mick Dundee: Well, I wouldn't hold that against him. Same thought crossed my mind once or twice.
Wow I forgot how that Violin, Cello, duet, was played when he hugged her afterward! Amazing! their are very few Emotion rendering scores that are out their and two of them are in this movie!!!
Everyone talking about the croc or the girl, I'm just concerned about the quality of the water she's using to refill her canteen. That's just begging for giardia.
Cool movie about a gifted “grounded” man. Took a lump from that tree for checkin out them buns 👀😂. Hard to blame the guy lol. Beautiful gal she was. Dad took me to see it on the silver screen when I was a kid and it was pretty awesome.
Today, he's be called a stalker for following her through the woods. Of course today, the movie would be about a female "bushman," who is in love with another female "bushman," and nobody would pay to see it.
Knowing what I know about crocs, that scene was ridiculous ! Crocs are much faster and more powerful than that ! They don’t sit still for a knife in the head, and it would’ve take that girl, not her canteen. lol.
Paul Hogan is a national treasure, for any who may not have known, you should have seen the Paul Hogan skit show back in the day. It was on Australian tv in the 70's & 80's & you can find full episodes on TH-cam.
I remember watching this in 1994 I just turned 18 and this part was a very scary part but also I was going through something right at that time and when I saw the actress cry afterward I remember I felt like crying because it was a very emotional part and it just brings back a lot of those emotions all these years later. Life is so crazy that way.
Watching this movie as an adult opposed to a teenager I find the scene hilarious. She had no chance fighting off that crocodile, it would have pulled her in the water with no problems.😂
Kids these days have no idea how tough it was for us back then, trying to pause a vhs tape on the right moment without the picture being all screwed up.
Rewinding the tape a thousand times was another alternative. We had to work hard to acquire culture.
Too bad the philips V2000 system never made it. Perfect still frame.
I used this scene quite a bit lol
This comment brings back memories 😂😂😂
True, but you could still replay the scene over and over until the tape was ruined.
There was something magical about this movie. The timing, casting, chemistry and story all came together perfectly.
I agree. So I'm not surprised. That they got married in real life. Approximately 4 years after the release of this movie.
It was a very good movie.
This is what happens, when you make story more important than agenda, it becomes an instant classic
It didn't hurt that the leads were played by beautiful people.

Paul Hogan singlehandedly put Australia on the tourist world map!
Lets not forget Crocodile Hunter Steve Erwin R.I.P ~
With a little assist from a certain Melvin Gibson.
My dad's VCR had a reverse-play function that worked perfectly. Part of that scene got watched on a loop quite regularly.
Linda Kozlowski was a stone-cold fine-looking woman!
"Was" is the operative word...

She doesn't look that bad considering she's 65 now
“That crock was going to eat me.”
“Oh, I wouldn’t hold that against him. Same thought crossed my mind.”
😁 tribute to the beauty
Linda Kozlowski looks gorgeous in this 1986 movie gem!
Her: "That croc was gonna eat me alive!"
He: "Well, I wouldn't hold it against him, the thought had crossed my mind once or twice." (!!!)
Sue Charlton: That croc was going to eat me alive. Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: Well, I wouldn't hold that against him. Same thought crossed my mind once or twice.
Crosses my mind every time I see her. She is a beautiful lady

She approaching to the water... the best scene ever... still remember when I watched the first time.
Ты лезбиянка?😊
She was at the the peak of perfection in this scene in 1986. I fell in love with her!
We all did😂
I know Dundee is a fictional character. But he's a badass. How he looks, how he talks, and of course that huge bowie knife. No one else could have played him. No one.
Rodney William Ansell (1954-1999) was the real Crocodile Dundee.
Maybe Clint Eastwood could have played him.
I heard the role was offered to Bert Newton.
@@Divocwax who's that?
Sue Charlton didn't realise that the outback in Australia 🦘 was dangerous.
gotta love those high cuts .......dang
Severe Hotness!
French cut. That’s what we called ‘em back then.
This scene was the reason we watched that film back then.
I remember this as a kid and rewinding it 1000 times lol wtf what a butt!
No kidding. I'm close to 60 and still rewound that scene a few times.
How many of us still think about Mick saying “that’s not a knife, this is a knife!”
One of the best scenes in the film. In top 100 best scenes ever in a film. The moment she hugs him, sooooooo good. Emotional. Powerful.
What that really her body? Or a double. Man , if so, she was ridiculously hot.
Let's not get crazy here now
You need to watch more classics if this qualifies as a "top 100" scene for you.
@@fitzwilliamdarcy5263 ok. Top 300
I liked the gator hug better.....more passion 😁
This was one of those rare occasions where the sequel was as good as the original. Probably due to the real chemistry between Mick and Sue.
It's the first film.
Honestly even the 3rd one was watchable. 🤙🏻
Of course-it uses the old tried and true formula-first she travels across the water to visit him in his jungle, then he relocates to the big city to visit her. In each case one of them is a fish out of water while the other is at home. Worked for Tarzan and King Kong.
Linda Kozlowski was absolutely gorgeous in this movie!!
I'm surprised she didn't achieve the fame of a Sharon Stone for her sexiness.
Ой, хорош стонать, девственники озабоченные
@2:19 and @2:32 were definite clips in boys spank bank arsenal in the 80s. 🤣
I love it when I hear women say they wear thongs because they're comfortable!! I laugh so hard....
I was 6 years old when I saw this in the theatre. Every single person in the place jumped in their seats when that crocodile lunged out of the water!
Great film, greatest cinematograf 20th Century!!!!
The water canteen broke off before he got there, so that croc paid the ultimate price for some water! Didn't he know he was submerged in water? 🤣😂
Did it break or did Dundee slash it before attacking the croc?
