- Acting coach Keira Duffy critiques 13 of Hollywood's most famous - and infamous - rage fits. She reviews anger scenes ranging from great to mediocre to downright terrible, breaking down what went right and wrong in the actors' performances.
Some of movies' most memorable scenes feature actors getting mad - whether it's an action star like Arnold Schwarzenegger delivering his notorious "choir boy" quote in "End of Days," the legendary Samuel L. Jackson giving his Ezekiel 25:17 speech in "Pulp Fiction," or master of anger Jack Nicholson shouting down Tom Cruise in "A Few Good Men." So, what separates the highs from the lows? With scenes featuring some of cinema's most famously angry characters, from Regina George's piercing scream in "Mean Girls" to Howard Beale's TV diatribe in "Network," Duffy breaks down why certain performances of anger resonate with audiences while others fall flat.
Duffy deconstructs the greatness of Denzel Washington's "King Kong" speech from "Training Day," traces the arc of emotion in Leonardo DiCaprio's rage fit from "The Great Gatsby," and discusses went wrong in Sylvester Stallone's viral one-liner from the comic-book adaptation "Judge Dredd." She analyzes Angela Bassett's celebrated monologue from "Waiting to Exhale," and examines the improvised acting choices that make the scene feel so cathartic.
In addition to dramatic scenes, Duffy looks at comedic depictions of anger, from Kristen Wiig's bridal-shower rant in "Bridesmaids" to Nicolas Cage's airport tantrum in "Honeymoon in Vegas," and talks about how comic actors use physicality to play anger for laughs. And in the courtroom scene from "A Few Good Men," Duffy compares the righteous anger of Tom Cruise's young lawyer from the smug, defiant outrage of Jack Nicholson's colonel, and talks about how the actors escalate the scene right up to Nicholson's classic line, "You can't handle the truth!" Throughout the video, Duffy points out techniques that top-notch actors use to make their freakouts feel real and visceral on camera, as well as common mistakes that can make anger veer into ridiculousness - and in some cases, unintentional comedy.

Pro Acting Coach Breaks Down 13 Rage Scenes | Good & Bad Acting - บันเทิง
Leo is the master at rage acting
I agree!
And good ol' pacino
@@kennethha416 in recent years he's become a parody of himself... but his portrayal of Michael in The Godfather II (especially after every insult and slight) was sublime.
@@smokerjim I mean if you watched the irishman you can clearly see that he's still got it

@@notwerkinginthishouse8634 Oh hi, Mark.
@Arsenal Bullet mind-changer: it didn't win an oscar.
How many spoons? You know, I still have to watch the actual movie?
the fact Angela Bassett’s scene was improvised and wasn’t scripted shows how amazing of an actress she is
I remember seeing that scene in the theater with my mother. There's a moment when she plants her feet on the floor and screams. I felt like I was seeing too much. I remember a theater full of women bursting with applause and cheering when she tossed the match and turned her back on the flames. Very intense.
I was so pleased to see that scene!! I don't know a lot of people who have seen it. Then again, I was young when it came out.
she is an amazing actress- however for a scene lke that it would usually be harder for an actor to perform a scripted one rather than an improvised one, tbh.
@@bh2110 I disagree
O
Jake Gyllenhaal improvised that scene from nightcrawler. When he accidentally broke the mirror his hand got cut open and it required 46 stitches. One of my favorite performances of all time.
I love his character so much I was so happy with the ending
Probably the worse snub in Oscar history
He was great in that movie n deserved an Oscar. But this is B.S .show me the source of your claim.
@@otomackena7610 I mean he did actually cut his hand but I don't think he needed 46 stitches.
Maybe your thinking of Leonardo💀
Show us some crying scenes, who’s faking it and who’s putting eye drops in
😹😹😹
The best way to show pain is crying on the left eye and right for happiness
@@_.Deitasterra Lmao this has been proven to be false.
I mean Tom hardy uses eye drops
YEEEEEEEEEEEEES
She explained the scenes so well- so many aspects of their acting plus the context of the film more generally
They should def have her on again or more often cuz I really like her style of explaining, way more than some others
@@Alex-rh8mr ye
Am I insane? These videos are torturous. She's explaining the obvious. "She's laughing maniacally instead of crying, which is not what we expect someone to do when they are angry." Yes, that is exactly the direction that the Winslet received. It isn't like Revolutionary Road, which is a faithful rendition of the stageplay, was improv. "I like how he emphasizes words." These aren't expert observations. They are things you and a friend say while watching a movie.
@@TheMythofSissyFuss you’re kind of right, which is why i appreciate her takes on movies i haven’t seen. that being said, don’t watch it if you find it torturous. easy solution
Any basic youtuber who thinks that he’s a film critic could’ve said the same thing, plus honestly i know that this sounds like a 13 y/o shi... but if she’s that good at acting why we’ve never heard of her or why isn’t she a nominee, they don’t specifically said this at birdman but it reminds to the argument of criticism existence because they’re jealous people who don’t have any talent at all so they just "analyse" and criticize stuff
The funny backstory of Jack Nicholson is that apparently they must film this scene multiple times from multiple angles. And Jack Nicholson delivered the same identical performance perfectly every time, impressing the hell out of all the other actors.
Because of all his action movies people tend to forget what a talented actor Tom Cruise really is.
Yep, for anyone curious to see Cruise's capabilities and range as an actor, I'd recommend the following (by no means exhaustive) list:
- Interview With the Vampire (eccentric vampire)
- Magnolia (self-help guru)
- Tropic Thunder (best let him surprise you)
- A Few Good Men (as in the video)
- Jerry Maguire
- Collateral (cold-blooded, ruthless assassin)
- Born on the Fourth of July (war veteran)
- The Last Samurai (traumatised war veteran)
- Vanilla Sky
- Eyes Wide Shut
The descriptions are very brief or absent to avoid any spoilers or lessen the emotional moments which may be present. I'd recommend everyone to check those out, and perhaps add some suggestions of your own.
I knowww he is amazing
@@bloat1235 Awesome list!
Mostly because of his shitty personal life but I try to separate the art from the person
@@katocs he’s not always nice in interviews….if the interviewer asks tough questions or if they disagree on policy or on anything really he turns into a different person that’s my own personal opinion off what I’ve seen
The way the mirror broke in nightcrawler was dope, that last piece landed perfect to capture his face
CGI mirror
@@emudeko nope-- he actually broke the mirror by accident when improvising that moment and had to get multiple stitches in his hand. Leave it to ol' Jakey
@@A.l.e.x.e.a I'm kidding, I know it's real, loved the movie by the way, I mean not like I want to be like his character, I'm not a psychopath.
They probably did that take several hundred times to get the mirror to break right
Wolverine101 supposedly it just happened to land that way, whole scene was improvised. Sometimes the universe creates perfection.
Show us some dying scenes; who's really faking it and who's really dying...
i was about to say they’ve done that then i got the joke lol
If they don’t really die then they’re not a real actor
Poor Brandon Lee.
Sleeping and yawning too..they're hard to fake 😂
@@lizzie3670 there are some scenes where they fake their deaths9 xd
I remember watching Nightcrawler and just thinking how the main character's eyes were so blank and bulging, they kind of remind me of an anime character when they have no light in their eyes or their pupils shrink. Seriously, Jake Gyllenhal did a good job with that one.
Yeah as the way they slowly revealed that he’s a psychopath makes the ending feels like a piece of the puzzle instead of some edgy twist.
I personally thought it was an Oscar worthy performance
I got so excited that they included Angela Bassett’s iconic closet scene. Genius!
I really liked this acting coach. Some of the previous coaches who did these videos were kind of mean, which lessened my enjoyment of their analyses. Even if someone's performance isn't good, you can point out where they went wrong technically without tearing them down. Even in the performances that weren't as good, she pointed out things that kind of worked or points where they were clearly trying.
Agreed, not pampering, not mean, but constructive.
Totally agree! I really enjoyed her explanation and how she actually was positive throughout the whole video
Especially considering the director makes the final cut on the scene. If they don't get a good performance out of the actor they should take some of the blame.
she's from the UK, so it makes sense
if shes a pro why haven't I see her in any movies? jk :P shes great
I may be wrong but the story I heard about the Nightcrawler scene is that Jake got only a small bit of direction saying something along the lines of "Just let out Lou's anger" and he improvised the scream and when he breaks the mirror that was not scripted and right at the end for just a second you see Jake look at his hand, thats because he cut right through his hand by accident which needed a bunch of stitches
I don't get why he never got an oscar
yaro42 me neither he’s so underrated
Damn, great actors. Leo also did the same thing in a movie once, he cut his hand and acted like the blood was part of the scene.
@@excuseme5086 Yes! That scene in Django was genuinely unnerving especially having heard that the blood was real and he improvised the scene that took place after it (not the dialogue but how he used the blood as a prop) really made that whole scene horrific and a great display of how much power he had in that moment
And not only that he would have been in so much pain and he just acted through it like wow I cry if I get a paper cut
You just love it when actors can do their job right.
Its just so satisfying
What about Michael Scott finding out Toby is back? XD
A large part of rage is the sheer embarrassment and shame afterwards. When you've unleashed all your pent up anger and all you've achieved is humiliation and minor property damage you know you must make amends for in an instant flash of sobriety.
I felt that
Nah. I'm proud of my rage. People actually get scared. Never felt humiliated. If anything the people I directed my anger to felt extremely sad and apologetic.
And that's because I RARELY lose my patience. People around me know if I actually reach the point of being angry, they know someone did something, etc.
K. Let the fueling of the flames commence now :)
Aldy Hong Thats not a good thing. Rage is a purely selfish and irrational emotion. You sound like an abuser.
@@TimTamSlam7 and if that rage is born from abuse and directed towards an abuser, is it still irrational and selfish? Yikes
@@RV-vx9ek Thanks. Because it is. I don't let my anger get out of control. My point was: if someone gets me angry, then they deserve to get clocked in the face. Why? Because if I know someone wasn't trying to get my angry, I won't. Why? Because I have quite a lot of patience DUE TO THE FACT that I've gone through so much.
Regina's rage came from realization (of how she lost power and people played her) and not from pure anger. She was PISSED OFF
Very much this. On top of that, playing rage/anger/etc. in a comedy is different than playing it in a drama. Drama is meant to be serious and therefore be taken seriously but in a comedy, especially a teen comedy like Mean Girls that exaggerates reality, it requires the actor to be self aware of that exaggeration. Which Rachel did brilliantly, she understood the melodramatics of Regina.
Yeah I was annoyed at that one I'm like yeah women can be sexist too didn't know when women get angry we are supposed to be masculine 🙈
@@sarahortiz1661 it's not actually sexism! i mean who screams like that when they're frustrated and angry
@@NA22427 Regina George
yh i saw it in the intro and i was like bruh she's an over the top character, thats how she's supposed to scream lmao
I love that you can tell she KNOWS these movies and speaks to the context and build up and eventual release of the anger.

I wish I had found you earlier
Thank you!
Angela Bassett is way too underrated. Such a screen presence, such a good actress, and everything seems just so natural. Some just go through the motions and ham it up with overacting, playing to the camera, trying a little too much to impress the audience. She seems much more real, to the point you forget it's acting.
O
Leo’s rage is so iconic. Look at his jar muscle....
KATE OUT ACTED HIM IN REVOLUTIONARY ROAD-HANDS DOWN POSSIBLY HER HUSBAND DIRECTING IT -WHICH LEADS ME TO SAM MEDES ON AMERICAN BEAUTY ?
Gotta love that jar muscle.
@@brookebowers3529 bro, fix how you compose sentences.
@Gold Rose
Sorry....
Brad Pitt is one-dimensional??
@@brookebowers3529 W-what? I genuinely can't understand whatever you tried to write.
The rage from the "American History X" dinner scene was so intense, it was almost hard to watch in one setting. When he tries to make Davina apologize and took off his shirt. Shivers. You could taste the hate within. Great performance by Edward Norton.
I cant believe it took so long for Leo to win an Oscar... I think every role he's ever played is brilliant.
It's criminal he wasn't nominated for Catch Me if You Can.
What’s eating Gilbert Grape should have been an automatic Oscar
because there are better actors
@@disierra-amado5596 Yes only the best actors wins
Oh! How about “revealing the twist” (main character finds out a twist with/without the audience) - think The Prestige, Shutter Island, Fight Club, The Truman Show, Gone Girl, Parasite. It is a lot harder to act surprised/shocked than people realize!
That would be so good!
I'd like to nominate the FANTASTIC "Red Light" for this list too. It, like nearly ALL of De Niro's work excluding Taxi Driver and Godfather, is HIGHLY, DISGUSTINGLY UNDERRATED.
Please include Mr. Robot Season 4/Episode 7. The plot twist is... death in itself.
Breaking bad too
bro, im still trying to find "Se7en" in your comment.oh,you forgot it right!
Having delt with anger problems and knowing what genuine rage feels like I can appreciate an actor channeling that for their craft. I get a sense a lot movies shy away from showing scenes like these nowadays, generally. Rage has a duality about it, it's something that comes from a loss of control but can also come from a very real place deep down and when it lets lose it triggers a rapid change in body language, expression and tone which makes it easy to notice when it's fake and forced. That may be conflicting for a lot actors. Just my thoughts on that.
She talked about shifting power between characters. I would love to have her break down scenes specifically focused on that!
Every one of his performances is impressive. I can name 10+ oscar worthy
He was INCREDIBLE in Nocturnal Animals amonst other roles. I have no clue why he hasn't been nominated more.
I remember avoiding Brokeback Mountain as a teen because of all the homophobic joking going around in school. When I finally saw it, I felt so bad for it. Because I know for a fact thousands and thousands of people didn't watch it and never will just because gay characters. It's a phenomenal movie
@beep boop Beep It was Jake
Memento Mori the point is that he was acting so well that he disappeared behind the character
@@joetedrick4798 Ahhh I see. My bad. I haven't seen it yet myself and don't know the names.
I love anything Denzel does. ANYTHING. He could just say “Apple” and I’d be like “alright, where is his academy award??? Bring it out”
In Flight, even his sweat is giving an award worthy performance.
He is one of the best actors of all time and an absolute class act.
Unfortunately, he plays the same character in every movie he's in, which makes me think that's just how he is. He's enjoyable, but playing one's self isn't really award worthy.
SeedsOfHatred He’s type cast in serious roles and he’s done well in each one. Jim Carrey is type cast the same way but with comedy. Denzel is the intelligent charming leading man, I would blame hollywood more than Denzel 🤷🏾♀️
@@amayalewis6933 you should see Jim Carrey in Truman Show, just awesome. He did rage scene there
Kingkong ain't got shit on me. One of the most powerful lines I've heard.
I like your commentary about the nightcrawler scene. I've gotten that angry before, often in private as well, just smashing anything I can get my hands on even my own valuable belongings. It is very primal when no one is around cuz you can release all that knowing no one else is there.
Also about the build up like when you know you can feel yourself losing control but you also know you can still make the right choice and remain composed but instead you just give in to the anger
"[Regina] is is a very shallow character, so therefore it kind of makes sense that the way that she displays her anger is really quite shallow and at veneer level."
This is a thing, actually! Regina has been speculated as being written to have histrionic personality disorder, which basically makes a person extremely attention-seeking. One of the symptoms is 'rapidly-shifting and shallow expression of emotions', which means that a lot of emotions are essentially exaggerated or put on like a performance.
Uh that is very interesting.
I think the same thing for Nomi in Showgirls. Elizabeth Berkley gets a lot of flack for horrible acting in it, but I thought it was a perfect example of someone with histrionic disorder.
That is annoyed anger. I am exactly like that when i’m super angry by myself. Especially the shouting; it’s not purposefully girly because i usually try to shout at loud as i can. I call it my temper tantrum. Sorry too much information
It's a nuance of anger. It's frustration with slight satisfaction that though what's done was done, she had a revenge tactic. It's sort of girly in the fact it's more of a cry scream, so much so it gets brought up in the how to scream in this series even though it's not a horror movie scream it'ssimilar. She cries into it. It's rage built from sadness of what Regina felt was betrayal. Through in the fact everything she does is self motivated and therefore performative, she's playing into the sympathy of the scream as much of the anger she's feeling. It makes sense and it works by my standards.
SpaceMonkey I’m your 1 thousandth like.
Should have dissected Toni Collette in Hereditary.
I agree
The dinner scene is soooo good.
Part 2 incoming?
this was the most haunting scene in the whole movie. I felt it and I cried. They were all so good in that scene.
I came into the video hoping to see that scene
I remember when DiCaprio was nominated for his gazillionth Oscar and I was surprised that he never got nominated for the great Gatsby. I never considered it a great film but I always said if I could give him an award it would be for the time he yelled 'shut up', and I was so impressed, that I agreed with Tobey's character when he said 'it was in that moment that I truly believe that Gatsby had in fact killed before'
His rage speech in Django was incredible too. Stayed in character with a bleeding hand!
As an actress let me say this video series is pure gold, good job!
You're stepping in dangerous territory trying to analyze Nicholas Cage's acting. Look how Abed turned out
I'm a caaaaaaaaaaaaat!
Always be cageing.
Oh, abed!
This comment made my day
Underrated comment!!!!! 😄
This acting coach series has really made me appreciate acting and actors more. Also would love to see you guys continue with the acting coaches but also do one with a production designer or even a cinematographer!
Personally I think that on a psychological level to interpret the delivery of Denzel Washington's acting I would say he was not acting out of anger but pure fear. The character uses bravado which can be mistaken by anger to deflect the fear and desperation of being outplayed.
Peter Finch’s performance in Network is one of the greatest things I have ever seen, I can actually say that about the film itself too. It is absolutely extraordinary.
The fact that Kate Winslet is also doing an American accent so well while being convincingly angry is unbelievable.
And correct me if I'm wrong but I think Jake Gyllenhaal actually cut his hand when filming that scene, and that very take is in the movie? And when he's turning away from the mirror he's actually hurt.
Mira Pohjalainen yeah he did apparently! breaking the mirror wasn't part of the scene so there weren't any precautions taken towards it
I feel British actors are way better at accent swaps than American actors. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Leo did the same thing in Django. He smashed a glass 🥃 in his hand and the blood was real. They kept it in the movie.
@@user_2793 I'd add Australian actors too, but then again we have a similar accents to the British ones. I guess maybe some American actors don't get as much coaching or practice for what makes a convincing accent. Sometimes they just do a really general mish-mash accent, rather than focusing in on a specific one.
@@bloat1235 I think it's because 90% of movies and television are American. So the rest of the English speaking world grows up hearing the American accent almost as much as their own. Whereas Americans only hear themselves, in real life and in movies/TV
I would really love to see one on grief scenes. I feel like Toni Collette's scene in Hereditary when she loses her daughter is so incredibly convincing.
Agreed. That was f'ing brilliant.
Oscar worthy
Yes! I felt so connected to that scene. It felt so raw and real. My mother acted exactly like that when my older sister passed. Another great act of grief was in the beginning of Midsommar when Dani lost her family
Frodo screaming "Gandalf! NO!" and then the hobbits dealing with their emotions while Aragorn and Boromir arguing about whether to move on or take a moment
would be interested to see some of the more gutwrenching scenes in tlou 1 and 2 as well
Well, no one ever accused Ahnold of being a good actor.
Because everyone knows he is a good actor
I really appreciate the acting coach. She‘s very competent for this analysis and considered the different context for scenes and narratives. Thank you for this good work
Denzel Washington proved himself as not only an actor but an embodiment of every character he plays . Looking forward to his son in TENET
Isn’t it his son?
David Hopper that’s what he said?
Oh
You don't need to wait until TENET comes out.
You can already see John David Washington give a great performance in BlacKKKlansman.
@@TheMogul23 Yeah I saw it and he was magnificent but Nolan is my favourite director . So teaming up with him ............. TENET
It would have been interesting to see a breakdown of the fight scene in Marriage Story - it’s PHENOMENAL
I was thinking that too! I think Adam Driver is absolutely amazing.
I was hoping she’d get to it but she never did. It’s an incredible scene
“Do you love her?”
“No! But she didn’t hate me.”
I’ve felt like that before.
No one articulates themselves that well while arguing so intensely. That movie has great acting but the writing is like they don't trust the audience to be smart enough to understand a "real" argument, one that's sloppy and has both people involved completely wrapped up in the moment. Those perfect little quips and specific recalling of certain events don't happen in real arguments. Real arguments are messy, and both people would be equally sloppy in how they articulated themselves. People don't talk like that script is written, it just doesn't represent what a realistic argument between real long time spouses would be like. There should be stuttering, word slurring, more reacting to what the other is saying and less reacting to what they themselves are saying. It's written to coherently for something that's supposed to be chaotic and messy.
Jake Gyllenhaal is so overdue for a best actor Oscar.
Funny thing about rage and other intense emotions is that by breaking up the tension, all sorts of crazy stuff can come out. Laughing during a freakout rings very true.
Breakdown scenes of heartbreak. Scenes of losing someone by death. Scenes of betrayal. (I'm thinking of the moment in Braveheart, where William Wallace discovered that the man under the helmet was Robert the Bruce. And the scene that follows with Robert the Bruce and his father.
Next one: professional cryer breaks down crying scenes in movies
My time has come
Bexx Chin omg 😂
now this looks like a job for me
Bexx Chin 😂😂
John cryer says hi 😂
jake did an amazing job tbh his anger explodes and he even breaks the mirror, and when he walks away looking "calmer" when he actually isnt is beautiful to watch. its when youre so angry you look calm. amazing, i love this man.
One of my favorite rage scenes is Jennifer Connelly in A Beautiful Mind when she breaks down in the bathroom and breaks the mirror. So intense.
So we’re not going to talk about Adam Driver’s explosion in marriage story? Cool, that’s fine.
Right???
oh shoot you’re right
Yawn!
That was so good!
Bro that scene broke me
Wow she is GOOD at explaining this. I hope Insider brings her on a lot more when they do videos like this
And a cutie as well
I love the way you broke these down, and went into further detail from just the anger to the character's actual reason behind the anger, because they're truly are docent types of anger. Awesome job. 👏👏❤❤
Kate Winslet in Revolutionary Road was too real. She depressed me by how brilliant she was at selling me the character and the story, which was raw in itself
Scenes you already know are going to be here before even watching:
- Leonardo DiCaprio: Django Unchained
- Jake Gyllenhaal: Nightcrawler
Well you got 50% of your comment right.
well at least there were a couple leo scenes i guess lol
I'm surprised there wasn't an al pacino scene
You spelled the great gatsby wrong
Lol
The fact Gyllenhaal wasn't given an Oscar nomination for Prisoners and the fact Tom Cruise wasn't given an Oscar nomination for A Few Good Men pisses me off
Or Nightcrawler
Nicholas Cage’s performance in “Honeymoon in Vegas” is kinda exactly how Americans act when mad about the most minimal stuff. Although it’s over exaggerated it’s still a little spot on, just add a curse word after every word and it’s exact 😩
Nic cage doesn’t act; he plays Nic Cage 😂
I loved seeing Keira's analysis!! Please bring her back if possible. She has such an interesting and clear way of speaking about the scenes
ANGELA BASSETT IS THE ONE OF THE BEST ACTRESSES EVER
And a beautiful lady...
She slays everything. Her AHS roles are beautiful. And I love her on 9-1-1!
Meh, she hasn't impressed me.
I’ve loved her since Strange Days.
@@wardencobb7442 yikes i guess you dont know acting or is racist :3
i love that angela bassett was included and her improvisation in that scene was mentioned
Sean Penn scene in Mystic River was pure, raw emotion. Definitely deserves to be mentioned.
I'd love to see her reacting to rage scenes from Daredevil. You could teach a course with Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio's acting in that series.
Kate Winslet toggling many emotions in one scene. Mad respect
I was really hoping she would talk about Tommy Wiseau in The Room
“I did not hit her, I did not, it’s bullshit. Oh, hi Mark”
I was genuinely scared by Denzel in Training Day, he look dangerous even in that final scene when his situation is hopeless. I would love to see him play a villain again.
Angela Basset gives me full-body chills in that scene! Yes!
Tom cruise and Jack Nicholson climax scene is top notch
TOM CRUISE = LEGEND 😎
@@scottbarkley496 I see what you did there 😏
Yes and Jake Gyllenhaal
Jack Nicholson is always so entertaining
Not really.
Arnold acting mad is just funny to me for some reason 💀
Really interesting acting breakdowns, I learned a lot from this.
Love the connection between listening/responding/connecting and the inner life and authenticity coming through. I find that time & time again in my own training.
The scene from Revolutionary Road puts me in tears every time, because I've personally been there, when you know your relationship is OVER, but you're somehow still trapped (by societal conventional? By a personal expectation to be in control or responsible for everything?). To get to that point where you're laughing through the pain, and you're almost not in control of your emotions anymore, and you speak your truth without a filter anymore, and let it all pour out, without caring what the repercussions might be. I almost feel that unless you've been their personally (and perhaps Kate Winslet has been), this is not the kind of rage that can be acted; it has to come from a place of personal experience.
They needed Atonement when James McAvoy's character unleashes at Saoirse Ronan's character. It leaves me holding my breath every time.
Twelfth Lady which one was that?
It should definitely be on here.
@@-rin2836 James Mcavoy is criminally underrated.
13:22 I know this is a breakdown about acting, but can we all appreciate just how perfect that shot was? The quick dolly and the way it stops abruptly? The camera movement just perfectly implies what she's feeling
I feel ready to win my Oscar now after watching these videos.
A great analysis from the acting coach! Although it's sad to see that there aren't more women in film with the opportunity to play complex roles capable of deep rooted anger. I would absolutely love to see more female characters exploring a more diverse from of "rage".
Same thoughts. For that, 3 Billboards outside of Webbing is 2 glorious hrs of maternal rage and sorrow. You can feel her rage even when she's not in the scene, because her rage has affected/attached onto every single character in the movie. So good. Frances McDormand absolutely deserved her Oscar.

I could probably come up with a list in the history of film over the decades.
I would like breakdowns of good green-screen acting: creating the feeling that something fantastical or awesome is really there. Also, acting out these more subtle or complex states or emotions: insecurities/ambivalence, surrender/giving up/serenity, the trance states of addiction/jonesing/acting out.
This is way better than any preview I’ve ever seen. I wanna watch every move on here that I haven’t watched yet after watching this
She should react to Jon Favreau's rage scene in Chef. Unlike most movie/TV performances where the characters manage to speak completely coherently and even eloquently, his character starts babbling and repeating the same insults, struggling to find his words. I think this is actually so much more realistic because when you're that angry, you can't even think straight nevermind be capable of busting out an impressive monologue.
If there's ever a sequel to this video, I would absolutely love to see her take on Marriage Story. Scarlett and Adam have such incredible anger scenes in that movie
Also the "American History X" dinner scene. Edward Norton mastered that role.
I feel like a great one would be Willem DaFoe’s “HARK” monologue from The Lighthouse. The emotional journey that monologue takes and how DaFoe performs it and the super complex dialogue *chef’s kiss*
Yer not fond of me lobster?
Wow she's great at explaining the scenes and what makes them so great
After watching the Kate Winslet scene I thought, maybe it's a good thing Jack froze.....LOL.....loved this video. Great job!
Leo is always good with rage. His roles always seem to have a moment of rage in it.
I think his physicality also helps. He has slanted eyelids that hide the brighness of his eyes. When he goes into a rage, he opens them wide and you notice how pale they are. They remind me of cat eyes when they freak out. There is one scene in Titanic where "Jack and Rose" are walking away from a crewmember yelling at them. They both turn around and yell:"shut up!". The reason why that scene stuck with me is because I remember always rewinding that bit and pausing it at the moment they shout and flash an annoyed look at the crewmember". I was a weird kid(and an even weirder adult) i could watch a movie 5000 times and pick it apart. My aunt had it on VHS(yes. I am that old) Leo looked like some demon possessed when he was supposed to be just 'annoyed'. The light hits his eyes and they open wide. It was just a moment but, I think the guy just has the perfect eyes for 'rage' acting.
@@roddo1955 wow such attention to details. I remember that scene too but not so vividly.
The revolutionary road part was cut off too quickly, leonardo's response to her screaming was fantastic
Brilliant explanation of the scenes, Gracias!!
Great breakdowns! Felt the same way about the Arnold scene, BUT as an actor, I will mention here though that there's a lot to be said about how much of a role the editor plays in really gluing the actor's emotions together in the cutting room. Something like that could have even been a choice on the part of the editor/director. Giving him that pause between. Just a thought.
I want to see the acting breakdown of Joaquin Phoenix in the interview scene in JOKER before he shoots Robert De Niro.
He's better when he's in the jail cell in "The Master"
yesss!!!
Exactly the scene I thought of when considering what didn't get on here.
Don't forget Tobey Maguire's scene in The Brothers. It was genuinely scary
Dont forget Toby Maguire's emo Spiderman scene, iconic haha
Completely agree. TM takes it out of the letterbox and it’s a genuine meltdown. Easy to forget you’re watching film upon said scene. The continued compassion, confusion & jealousy sincerely feels out of control.
I just recently watched brothers he was chilling
Great acting in that scene
Yep
Leo's amazing at rage and cry acting. And.. rage-crying acting. He's just amazing
6:55 Love the juxtaposition of a self-conscious performance, staring into middle-distance (Schwarzenegger), versus an un-self-conscious performance, seeing and listening actively (Jackson).
Adam Driver in Marraige Story does one of the best enraged scenes. Highly recommend!
Regina is perfect!!!!! Is perfect for the role, that's the important thing.
great, now im in love with an acting coach
thanks alot, insider
That scene with Angela Basset is stuck in my memory from childhood, that's how raw and powerful it is.
Insider: break down crying/sad scenes in movies
Tobey maguire freak out in brothers was amazing
Great movie yesss
fantastic video. thank you
Leo has always been a pioneer of such rage scenes. He is astoundingly amazing at keeping it sound genuine which just immerses the audience into that scene so perfectly.
Self sacrifice scenes. The most terrifying psychotic scenes for like joker, chugrah, Hannibal and so on.
