This man should be called the "reviver" since he almost single handedly cast actors that Hollywood threw away or forgot about, like Mickey Rourke for the Wrestler and now Brendan. I am so happy that Brendan is acting again and getting some recognition. ❤
@Viorica Cosmetics no, I know and realise that...I'm probably even more of a fan of Aranofsky than Tarantino...my point being (and in response to the original comment) is that Tarantino has been resurrecting peoples careers for years.
I really hope Brendan wins this. Austin will get other chances to win he’s young, vigorous and in his prime. Brendan needs this and we as an audience need him to win. I just feel like this is important.
This Director waited for the right actor who was overcoming his own demons to bring this characters pain to life in such an authentic way, that even this clip felt like Brendan was sharing heartbreak from his soul that we can all relate to.
The "comeback" had already come. And this creepy need by the not too bright to twist a man's career into some story that it's not should find the trash barrel where it belongs. Brendan's cool. The creeps are not.
@@AuntieFa …Brendan was sexually assaulted by the head of Golden Globes decades back and it impacted him. Also, he was blacklisted, I think for disclosing that info. That’s why he didn’t attend the Golden Globes this year or any years since that happened.

I honestly can't remember a time when SO MANY PEOPLE got together to love and support a person. Brendan deserves every good thing that happens to him in the future. Btw i saw the movie yesterday. I hope they give him 10 oscars. If not, i'll just stop believing in humanity. What an actor for gods sake
Brendan holds a place in our hearts because he grew up with us and/or our kids. We've missed him! Thank you so much for bringing him back to us, now if we can just treat him well enough to keep him.
All of you must have terrible googling skills. He doesn't have a single year missing from his IMDb. People who care actually look for people who are (supposedly) missing.
Literally, I cried after watching that clip of Mr. Brendan Fraser 😢 " I need to know that I have done one thing right with my life!" So powerful, intense and emotional 👍👌👏🎉
That last line " I need to know that I did one thing right in my life.. " got me all teary and 😢. On another note, the way Darrren Aronofsky laughs and giggles is just so pure and honest, much like his approach to Directoring and casting, lead by Brendan Fraser. Bravo- The Whale is a masterpiece!
I just woke up to this, haven't even finished my coffee yet, and I've rewinded that scene some 5-6 times and cried like it was my first. I need to see this movie ASAP!
How many people can say they don't get instantly taken by Brendan's "I need to know one good thing I have done with my life." line. Even if you haven't messed up hard, the damn emotion just hits you. If he doesn't win best Actor I riot lol
I hope he gets the win but knowing wht the Oscar's are I doubt he will I mean Stallone shouldve won for creed and jim shouldve won for man on the moon and the Truman show but that didnt happen I stopped watching the Oscars a long time ago lost respect for it
I love love Darren Aronofskys movies. I've never actually seen him in an interview before. His personality is great. Has a really funny laugh. Not what I expected from a guy who makes such off the cuff thought provoking and philosophical movies.
Darren is one of those directors who understands the potential in actors. He always takes a chance with his casting choices. Aside from jumpstarting Brendan’s career again, he cast Mickey rourke in the wrestler and that restarted his career too. Hollywood loves a good comeback story and Brendan poured his heart out for this movie, and I think Hollywood should reward him for all the years they ignored him because in the 90s he was a jack of all trades and he proves that he’s still brilliant actor when given the chance.
5:57 I thought everyone was exagerrating when they said Brendan killed it with that line....hell no! He pulled it off and I got goosebumbs hearing him say that
He really knows how to get the beet out of the lead roles... Brendan in the whale, Portman in the black swan, Rourke in the wrestler and my personal favorite Jackman in The Fountain
People like to hate on Darren but his films are always damn interesting and for the most I always enjoy them. Dude made one of my favorite movies of all time Requiem of a Dream
@@ashleym3740 The Wrestler is Always one of those films.. ...that I (always) forget about. Then when I return to it its Explicitly As Impressive as Before.. ...one of the Best Sports Films Ever.. (imho).
BLACK SWAN here 🙋. One of my favorites. As soon as I saw that trailer in the theater, I thought "I'm gonna love this movie". Natalie Portman got her Oscar.
There's so much talk about Fraser, but many of the choices Darren Aronofsky made behind the camera were simply brilliant. The Whale felt like a return to his routes in a lot of ways, making me recall Sara Goldfarb's apartment in Requiem For A Dream. The way he moves the camera around and stages his scenes were just awesome. Highly recommend seeing The Whale
huge fan of his movies, been following his films since the 90s. he deserves an Oscar. Out of all of his films, The Wrestler was just a stand-out for me. His craft of introducing us to his characters is something very unique and hard to put into words. Beautiful film. Can’t wait to see his latest The Whale! congrats and please keep making films!!!!
The fountain touched my soul in a way that any other movie never did before. I cry every time I watch it #crytogether!!! A beautiful work of art and fantastic performance by Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz
One of my favorite directors. He's the kind of director that always puts out something worth watching. Requiem for a Dream is still my all time favorite of his.
While I thought the 🎥 itself was just alright (3.5/5) everyone in the movie especially Brendan is 5/5. I didn’t cry but my eyes started getting there 😢.
one of the most fascinating films i've ever seen, i remember watching it for the first time, i was kinda young so it was like a fever dream lol, but after understanding the whole concept, it was a great experience
@Liquid by saying he's "not a mainstream director" you're essentially saying he's underrated. The man creates incredible films but most people don't know his name.
Omg, I really can’t wait until I’m in a better place so that I can watch this movie. Seeing just that one clip makes me know that I’ll bawl my eyes out uncontrollably. I can’t handle it rn
Almost everyone in the comments section is Brendan this, Brendan that, and granted, he's amazing in the movie and I'm glad he's having a comeback... BUUUUT, can we talk about Darren freakin' Aronofsky, director of some of the most profound, shocking and drop-your-jaw-to-the-floor movies ever made?
Brendan deserves more movies, appreciation, etc. And bless this guy for helping launch back. Brendan.helped propel the Rock, now someone needs to help Fraiser. He was exactly what Hollywood needed. A shot of humanity.
Darren is a wonderful director. One of the movies I love the loft and hits so hard for me Requiem. It can be hard watch but damn - was that so well done.
I really hope Brendan wins an Oscar because he got blacklisted from Hollywood for claiming that the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association sexually abused him.

Aronofsky makes low budget movies. He can't afford good actors. And sane ones don't want to work with him.
@@ifyouonlyknew811 as if Jennifer Lawrence, Jennifer Connelli, Jared Leto, etc are low budget actors? Pls lmao he’s a legend.
@@atarapister3548
LEGEND. 1. : a story from the past that is believed by many people but cannot be proved to be true.
Jimmy is actually doing an interview here. It seems like Darren's "This is my first talk show ever" activated his good host skills.
I've seen The Whale 4 times now and it gets better every time. Go see it in a theater!
Actually scratch that, I don't wanna know. Don't wanna spoil the surprise. ;)
i have seen it twice hihi
Its almost too depressing for watching it only one time
5:57 I thought everyone was exagerrating when they said Brendan killed it with that line....hell no! He pulled it off and I got goosebumbs hearing him say that
I love all of Aronofsky’s films, he is a truly brilliant writer and director in this era of time we are in
He really knows how to get the beet out of the lead roles... Brendan in the whale, Portman in the black swan, Rourke in the wrestler and my personal favorite Jackman in The Fountain
Beet
Jackman in the fountain is such an underrated movie
Black Swan, Requiem for a dream, The wrestler & The whale that movie was incredible! This man is sooo good!
You gotta watch THE FOUNTAIN, possibly his best 🎉
Brilliant filmmaker and compassionate, intelligent individual. Always comes out with a daring and challenging film. Respect
*Bong Joon-ho*
*Denis Villeneuve*
*Darren Aronofsky*
So great to see Jimmy getting such great directors on a talk show. It needs to happen more
He had Guillermo Del Toro on the show a few weeks ago too!
Atom Egoyan, James "Jim" Cameron, Sarah Polley, Hirokazu Koreeda...
Uwe Boll
they don’t get the money to make these movies if they don’t do the talk show circuit lol
Agreed. Not box-office hype - but all of them created films incur massive screen burn on the mind with their imagery and story-telling expertise.
lol would never have expected Darren Aronofsky on Fallon's show, but here we are. The movie is fantastic btw.
Like any good New Yorker, Darren sees a lot of Off B’way theater. It’s cool to spot him in an audience. He feeds his senses, and it shows in his art.
And being in New York, its visual culture as well. And music. Darren "gets it' about culture.
Darren Aronofsky did the same with Mickey Rourke in the Wrestler which is a 10/10 film
The Wrestler and Black Swan are two great movies he did. I also liked Mother:)
What about Noah?
@@abn3r507 not a great movie. _Pi_ is dope though.
One of the directors for me where I've greatly enjoyed all of his movies.

Yeah, Requiem is such a good comedy!
BLACK SWAN here 🙋. One of my favorites. As soon as I saw that trailer in the theater, I thought "I'm gonna love this movie". Natalie Portman got her Oscar.
Aronfsky is my alltime favorite. I was hooked to his movies when I first saw Pi. I still think Pi and The Fountain are the best movies ever made.
It’s not that people ‘loved’ Brendan, we LOVE him. He is a fantastic actor, a humble man, and so much fun to watch in movies.
For anyone wondering which Brazilian film Brendan made is called "12 horas até o amanhecer"
When you can tell 99% of the audience hasn't seen Pi.
They thought it was "Life of Pi"
Who cares? People can watch, or not watch, whatever they want. Get off your high horse and stop judging.
Maybe they didn't like it.
@@Alex-nk6sy I think it was kind of like beets. People either love them or hate them - no happy medium.

Such an incredible artist
Obsessed with Darren. Man is a legend.
This man has made some of the best films ever made and managed to have never been on a talkshow?! Man of many talents...
Maybe he is just not a "celebrity" type director. He has always had a consistent independent spirit since the time he made Pi.
That was scene was quick in making me cry. I can kind of imagine how good the movie must be.
I can't force myself to stop believing Darren Aronofsky is Christian Bale in is best role all those years

@@titusscott35 Glad I'm not the only one. It has bottered me for years.
I didn’t see it and now I can’t unsee it. 😋

While I thought the 🎥 itself was just alright (3.5/5) everyone in the movie especially Brendan is 5/5. I didn’t cry but my eyes started getting there 😢.
Darren is an excellent filmmaker.
He sounds like Ray Romano

I’m just so happy that finally, Brendan Fraser got the respect he deserves! 💕💕💕
Great director, modest, without any arrogance what so ever.
I'm sending my screenplay to him. Definitely.)
He's one of my most favorite directors.
Pi, Requiem for a Dream, Wrestler, Black Swan, mother are all great. looking forward to The Whale 👌
Brendan Fraser deserves an Oscar for his outstanding acting ability.
First late night interview? Holy wowza. I haven't seen the film yet and I can't wait to see it.
I watched the champ and cried my eyes out! Ricky Schroeder was amazing.
I was in high school when Pi was released. I remember thinking to myself ‘I am on board for everything this guy is gonna make.’
I hope Brendan Fraser wins the oscar 👌 he's always been an outstanding actor
Requiem for Dream progressed editing styles in film imo. LOVE his movies. Ever since I seen Pi I was hooked on his style.
Brendan Fraser- the comeback of a century!
my god..goosebumps while watching the sneak peak..Brendan is incredible
If you haven't seen The Fountain, then you haven't seen one of the best movies ever made.

Can't wait to see The Whale. Brendan Fraser is a good actor. Nice to see him finally come back. This director has made good disturbing movies.
The Whale is now one of my all-time favorite movies. I sobbed! And I am not a crier! Bravo to Aronofsky and to Brendan Fraser!

He doesn't deserve the industry's help. He needs to go back to his padded room.
You made me cry again 😢
The Whale is a masterpiece in my book, Brendan and Sadie's performances were phenomenal and Aronofsky's direction was excellent as always.
Requiem for a dream is still my favorite Daren movie. And this man is legend to get Jackie and Padme hooking up on screen 😂
As much as I enjoy his films, the fact that he references ‘Kings Plaza’ makes this Brooklyn boy real proud.
Darren Aronofsky is great. Requiem for a Dream is still to this day one of the greatest movies I have ever seen.
I love Darren! He's absolutely one of my favorite directors!
The Fountain is probably the most criminally underrated movie out there
The fountain movie and soundtrack are a masterpiece
Darren is a wonderful director. One of the movies I love the loft and hits so hard for me Requiem. It can be hard watch but damn - was that so well done.
Now I don't feel so bad about loosing it at the theater for the Whale. Darren made me cry!
Every new movie Darren does just keeps getting better.
Man, Christian Bale has really perfected the Brooklyn accent.
George of the jungle still holds up today. Check it out
Rewatching the scene brought tears to my eyes
I really hope Brendan wins an Oscar because he got blacklisted from Hollywood for claiming that the president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association sexually abused him.
LOL. OK:)
And here I thought it was all about merits and talent that gives you awards..
He wasn't the president, he was a journalist, and a pinch is not sexual assault. He has 32 consecutive years of acting credits. Not blacklisted.
One of the best directors of our time!
