Someone suggested casting this Jeremy Allen White as Willy Wonka instead of Timothee Chalamet and now I see it. If you were to remake Willy Wonka today, it would be like The Bear with Willy Wonka trying to figure out how to create his Chocolate business
I appreciated the realism of Carmy's fridge breakdown. People with unresolved trauma are often fleeing from it by keeping busy. The quiet makes them uncomfortable and afraid.
Man, this is 100% fact. My home life was so chaotic growing up that whenever I visited my friends’ places I would wonder, “wow is this what other families are like? I thought what I went through was normal in every household.” Knives thrown, daily screaming matches, shit breaking. When I moved away to study, I had to always have something playing in the background. The silence made me uneasy. It only ever gets quiet in my house right before a big fight happens. Living alone and having no one to argue with was a peace like I’d never known, but the quiet was something that took me time to get used to 😅
As Tyler Joseph says in "Car Radio": "Sometimes quiet is violent". When there is no distraction, our darkest thoughts are so loud, we cannot bear it (sic).
I think that Syd provides those moments of calm for Carmy as evidenced by her image taking over Claire's in Carmy's mind during his panic attack. Also, their conversation under the table was one of the gentlest and quietest moments in the season. When they are not arguing, Syd is the person that Carmy is the calmest and most attentive with.
I think it's worth mentioning that Claire is an ER doctor, so she also has extreme job stress, but quite frankly it has much bigger repercussions that Carmi's job stress because her's is literally life and death in some cases. Yet she is always so quiet, centered and calm, and just a very relaxing prescence. This knowledge drives home another very sad point: people who are abused and traumatized often come to believe that such ways of being are the ONLY way to be and therefore dont think there is anything to heal from because drama and abuse is the norm. So, I dont think that Carmi pushes Claire away because he doesnt think he deserves Claire's love. I think he does it because its just too foreign to him and to a degree, he simply doesnt understand it, and we so often reject what we dont know.
i love this analysis! i also think that claire is a reminder of the past and a connection to what mikey wanted for him. he truly has an inability to accept love that isn’t loud and aggressive.
I think it also comes from some of Carmy's work friends coming off as jealous of his relationship with Claire and making him think "We are sacrificing all our personal lives for this restaurant to be successful why aren't you contributing just as much if not more cuz it's your place is not fair that you get to have a personal life and we don't" It's that mentality of "To be great you have to sacrifice everything else and if you are not committed to this 100% it'll fall apart" Which I've never believed in and I personally find it toxic. You only have one life, why spend it only doing 1 thing when there is so much out there.
Okay, THIS is what I have been missing from this channel. More videos analyzing film CRAFT please. The characters analysis and trope analysis are all good but you guys used to talk about CRAFT like cinematography and editing and music all the time too! Please more of this as well as analyzing single shows or movies more please.
@@shermikeman so black characters should only be allowed in TV shows if they have some big revelatory arc? Why can't they be minor characters? Why can't they be extras?
Unfortunately the writers decided to make those characters not take responsibility for something that was obviously their fault. I'm specifically talking about the One Take episode where the restaurant is having a brunch rush with a crap tonne of orders. Both Sydney and Marcus made such a colossal fuck up, as did basically everyone else in the kitchen, but the difference? Everyone apologized for their shit, but Sydney and Marcus not only didn't, but they proceeded to continue talking shit about Carmy and even naming one of their noteworthy dishes in season 2 after their conversation.
@@tutumazibuko2510what does that have to do with race? All the characters are flawed, you making it about their race says more about you. Also, Richie never apologized to Syd
I've never shut down more mentally than when I was on the line in the middle of a 2-3 hour straight rush. The music, the sound of the kitchen, the waiters and other cooks. It was pure and brutal sensory overload. You don't have time to shut down for long. But it feels like claustrophobia and the world just shrinks in on you. It only happened 2-3 times but it was so intense that I had to step off the line. The action of removing yourself even if its 10 feet away was the only way for me to snap out of it.
That was a credit to the hard work done by all including Carmy in getting his staff to a place where they could believe in themselves even when he can’t believe in himself.
So glad you guys covered this show, The Bear is absolutely fantastic and is probably my favorite show that's come out for a long time! I think the point you made about Carmy trying to perfect his chaotic life in the seven fishes is also reflected in their other menu choices through the season. At the start of the season Carmy and Sidney are experimenting with a chaos menu that matches Carmy's rather chaotic life. Through the season they eventually get away from that menu option to more traditional, "orderly" dishes, until later in the season when Carmy reveals a possible new dish idea (I think it's actually the seven fishes, but I have to re-watch to double check) and he introduces it as "chaos menu but a little more thoughtful and organized". I feel like this has a similar meaning. It's Carmy trying to better control his chaotic life, but feeling like he needs part of that chaos (and a dash of complete misery) in order to achieve the perfection he keeps pushing towards.
It might just be me but I don't like how Carmy's friend come off as jealous that Carmy is trying have a romantic life. "We are sacrificing everything in our personal life to make this restaurant successful and the fact you aren't contributing just as much if not more isn't fair to us because it's your place" To me personally I've really been a fan of the belief of "If you want something to work you have sacrifice everything else or it'll fall apart" Something about that to me is just a bit small red flag.
As a former line cook for a Italian restaurant it is hectic on the back, so when you go to a restaurant and it is busy and full just know they probably got like two maybe three people on a good day working in the kitchen
As someone who's worked in catering for nearly 20 years but in the last 5 years have pursued cooking as a career, I can relate to Carmy & his self conscious fear of slowing down that’s been installed in him. I gradually learnt to work at a fast pace over the years as well as keeping a cool head about it but I do worry sometimes if its enough.
I just finished season 1 and 2. The reasons why this series is so popular and critically acclaimed are the cinematography, audio, dialogues, conversations, etc. Overall, this series is amazing. Jeremy Allen White is a good actor and so as the rest of the cast. Fun fact: there are no body double on the cooking scenes; Everyone did their own stunts
With respect, the flashback episode of Italian-American family Christmas: it’s not the shouting and talking over each other that causes Carmy’s family trauma. It’s because the mother is a narcissist and created a narcissistic family structure and controlling everyone through this. Some cultures can talk and listen at the same time and follow multiple conversations at once. My Irish culture has this. I actually felt this episode was easy to follow and was likely toned down for the audience - it didn’t feel like the genuine article of a dysfunctional Italian American family.
This is very important for me to understand. Are you referring to the overlapping dialogue and chaos? Is it the stress of being not being heard or understood? I know that loud noises can be upsetting, but it’s my understanding that there are varying degrees .
I remember watching season 1 a little skeptically, as these big cooking shows usually care more about the "arteur chef" than the actually restaurant business. But the moment the two were outside having a smoking break and said "FUCK brunch!!" that's when I knew these guys had actual restaurant experience. lol
"Still, some of the really successful kitchens we get a glimpse into are not nearly as hectic," because they're written, and directed by people who have never *worked* in a kitchen. As someone who's spent most of her life working in kitchens (not high end kitchens, but I've been in them too) they're *all* a hectic, and frequently chaotic. Sometimes you have a team that works well together, and moves together, but it's always loud during the rush, and it's always a little chaotic, even at the best of times. It's actually been nice to see a realistic kitchen instead of this calm, disciplined lie most movies/series try to sell. 'Cept The Menu. That was a horror, and there's a reason the chaos was removed from the kitchen. It was unsettling, and it was supposed to be.
Something I couldn't understand about the Christmas dinner. Donna had been making it for years. Then in the beginning the family would offer to help with the dinner but she would reject that help and even become aggressive. So over the years everyone stopped offering to help. Only new people were brave enough to try but were still rejected. Now Donna has to take on this massive task alone and she does it but it stresses and overwhelms her. So my question is why did Donna reject their help in those early days of forming this traditional family meal and once she saw how hard it was why didn't she ask for help? It could have been a chance for the family to help her and bond over the work but now it's just a stressful time.
Some people can't accept they have been wrong or evolve at all. They will spend a lot of energy in hate rather than change. And it's so much easier to tell that it's everybody else's fault instead of your own stubbordness consequence. There are millions of people like her. It's a plague
imo it's again her need for perfection.... she doesn't trust anyone else to handle her masterpiece and takes it all upon herself to make sure it's Perfect according to her standards. It's control. Very similar to Carmy's behavior when he's locked in the freezer.
@@tanu1733 so she doesn't allow anyone to help her because only she can make everything perfect according to her vision but she also resents them for not helping? And Carmine can't do anything anything unless it's perfect so because he doesn't have the mental and emotional skills to balance things he can't have a healthy relationship and a thriving restaurant? So the reason why his agitation was worse was because they succeeded without him? But the reason they succeeded was because they had trained everyone to do their parts. Not to mention Richie really growing and becoming MVP.
The first time I made lasagna for friends I refused to let them help me. I cook. I make the thing. You sit near me and talk to me while I make this food that shows you exactly how much I love you. I'd say it's an Italian thing except I was set up on a step stool at 5 stirring sauce. Later in life, I realize the joy of my friends and family cutting peppers and onions while I do the other thing. Earlier in life I wanted to do the whole dance to show I cared. Later, I have learned it is no fun dancing alone. The joy in care is dancing together.
@@jenski5338 exactly. No point in showing love then resenting people for how the love was shown. You need to give people a chance to show you how much they care.
Almost didn't watch the second season. First season was good but so much chaos/drama and didn't like any of the characters. Second season really improved the characters and things from the first season paid off in the second. I really liked the single focused episodes as well. Marcus episode was really good. Didn't like Richie but the forks episode was truly great and made me like him. It was a feel good episode.
@@hellogoodbyeandallinbetween I do not enjoy it. But yes, I do judge people. Everyone does. It's really harmful to only watch things that you find relatable.
@@nalday2534 people watch tv for different reasons. TV can be a learning opportunity, a comfort, or an escape. It's not the only source of learning or information in our lives, so you can't really make a sound judgement about someone's experiences based on what type of TV they watch.
Great review of this episode. Essentially “they get it from their mama”😂❤ I didn’t initially see how Carmy and likely Mikey have learned their obsessive nature from their mom. Looking forward to season 3. Also nice to see a female review of this show. Almost everyone else posting on this show is male
I watched the first ep 80% of the way through and had to stop because of sensory overload. No one else ive talked to has agreed😭. I thought i was trippin❤
I now get why I couldn't do it! I have heightened hearing and pay attention to voices more than anything and this made me tired just watching clips lol
Hello, this is great! A lot of fuss lately on the Magic Mike franchise, can't wait on The Take's delivery. The first movie is sooo grim, packaged with some dance numbers just to cover up for the bleak, no future reality of all characters involved. The juice: Shady nightlife character Mike, with deep unresolved internal conflicts completely destroys the life of Adam, a young boy with serious social and professional problems, by turning him into a junkie drug dealer.
You know this video helped me understand why I did not like this show. I tried to watch it. It was too much. I now realized I was stressed out watching it. The show often made me feel uncomfortable. It was loud and crazy! A lot of yelling. I could not take it and would fast forward many scenes. After a while I kinda just stopped watching the show and read the overview on wiki. But I appreciate the show and understand why people do like it. Just not for me.
Very much like certain types of horror, this show creates a discomfort that is interesting and simply makes you feel something that is touching And very much like certain types of horror, it is not for everyone Thank you for making the distinction between "i disliked it" and "it is bad"!
I think that's only for the screen. Chefs normally wear chef's hats or hair nets. It's a MUST behind the kitchen. But even Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsey don't cover their hair for the camera.
Usually The Take’s coverage spurs me into getting into a show. In this case, I know for a certain not to go near this show won’t a 10-foot pole. I know its the theme of the analysis but still way too much chaos for me. And are the swearing in every single line? Yikes

I love how the black characters in this show are normal people. I care about all the characters in this show, it’s really unusual for me.
I'm always saying don't give us "black characters", give us characters that are black. No token shit. This show is a great example.

The Bear hits me right in the soul as someone from a broken family. they show the experience of trauma so well through the editing.
"Carmy's real problem is the trauma and noise that he carries with him inside his own mind." I think that goes for most of us.
I've never shut down more mentally than when I was on the line in the middle of a 2-3 hour straight rush. The music, the sound of the kitchen, the waiters and other cooks. It was pure and brutal sensory overload. You don't have time to shut down for long. But it feels like claustrophobia and the world just shrinks in on you. It only happened 2-3 times but it was so intense that I had to step off the line. The action of removing yourself even if its 10 feet away was the only way for me to snap out of it.
I would also add that the kitchen actually functioned better while Carmy was locked in the walk-in. It was much more calm and controlled.
Exactly 😂
That was a credit to the hard work done by all including Carmy in getting his staff to a place where they could believe in themselves even when he can’t believe in himself.

One of the best shows both technically and aesthetically in the last decade. And this is NOT hyperbole lol

I didn't really see the parallels of Carmie and his Donna until watching this.

Don't ship Carmy x Claire (they just don't have chemistry imo) so I don't fully agree with that point.
My babes, listening doesn't cure trauma. Love your content, but ouch!
I found this show too stressful to watch I could barely get to the end of s01e02. All the shouting, the tension, fuck.
