@@cosmicparsec9463 In case you're not being sarcastic, Scorsese is the person who not only totally understood Schrader's script for Taxi Driver, but perfectly captured it.

God, Ari’s star struck eyes through this whole thing was so cute. He deserves every single praise. We’re watching a monster of a filmmaker grow. Long live, Ari Aster!
If you really think about it- his brain is like a super computer with how much knowledge he holds on film/ music/ literature/ life. If there’s anyone who knows film it’s gotta be him
I will always admire how despite a worldwide legendary in cinema, Martin Scorsese appear to be one of the most humble person compared to to other directors and always show support on younger filmmakers like Ari.
I love the movie, but I was slightly disappointed that we do not see more of the world from the earlier sequences. We do get a bit of an explanation from the company timeline in the Wasserman mansion: "Big W Housing: Caring for those who abuse our products".
I remember learning Ari was working on his new film "Disappointment Blvd." and i was hyped and kept checking in for news and the trailer and then when they dropped the trailer for "Beau is afraid " and me overlooking it for days cause i didn't know he swapped the title. Looking forward to seeing this. Thanks for posting this vid. Very cool
Beau is Afraid did have three acts though. Act 1: indescribable schizophrenic stress induced panic Act 2: wish you were in Act 1 Act 3: wish you were in Act 2
certainly...and Ari Aster doesn't deliver the most obvious, melodramatic results. His movies are FORMALLY CHALLENGING with all their melodrama...yeah, you're going to ignore how objectively melodramatic his shit is and just say "he doesn't follow three act structure because he's an indie filmmaker, therefore he is God"...wow, you make Avengers: Endgame look like high art. A magnificent entertainment is better than bullshit art. Not to say it's better than David O Russell or David Fincher, but...👎👎👎
@@EpicRavenclaw42 "Magnificent entertainment". I enjoy 100% better an artist that create original movie with all the problems and defects like Beau is afraid than a standard and mediocre entertainment with poor writing, poor camera-work and bunch of action scene bad directed like Endgame, that for me Is reaaaally boring.
Can we.. can we please make this a viral thing and not tell them the truth? Like the movie or not, that would be fucking hilarious to get the marvel crowd in on false pretenses
I can't believe I am saying this but this is probably my favorite Ari Aster film so far, Hereditary was great, Midsommar was pretty good but Beau is Afraid is on whole another level. What a film, this is cinema.
It’s like he took everything that made those previous movies good and built a whole new genre of film upon that. I’ve never seen a movie like this and i don’t think i ever will afterwards, truly unique and indescribable.
@@drumgold23 I haven't seen a lot of Aster's movies before, only Hereditary, which I liked, but I have to agree with OP, this movie here is on another level. Yes, understandably not a movie for everybody, for people that are searching for "entertainment" it might not do. But in my neck of the woods "entertainment" is not usually a positive word anyhow. It might be translated to "politically appropriate ideological/religious" art. It seems to usually signify ideological movies that aim to repeat some values, tropes and motifs that some people ("regular people"?) seem to have a need for. It's probably similar to how religious mantras work. Constantly repeating the same structures and character arcs (cliches and genres) helps people in imagining some shared fantasy of how the world works - helps us imagine a shared society with shared values and what not, and perhaps this world will manifest itself if we repeat these things enough. I'm not saying it's not important, but it is not for everyone. If someone uses the word "pretentious" as they usually do without probably having any definition for it, there is a reflex to yell back: "you unsophisticated lower class movie audience!" or something, but I doubt that is useful to anybody. Some people just seem to be more interested in repetitively watching whatever others are watching and avoiding movies that stimulate individual thought or self-reflexion, and if they see something that contradicts this preference, they might instinctively feel threatened or insulted by it and they might lash out. That is ok, I try not to get angry at that as I perhaps have in the past. Some people are not for self-reflexion or critical stimulation in their media, constant repetition in "entertainment" keeps them happy and perhaps constructive to society. I am not here to change that, but I do feel the need to note that the word "pretentious" does often seem to be used by people for self-defence when confronted with forms of art, "entertainment" or media that is out of their ideological safe zone, mental capacity, etc. Not that the opinion "this movie is bad" or even "horrendous" is not valid, but in the realm of movie criticism I do advise to try to dig a little deeper into the movie or yourself or the society to understand why it might be or seem so. There are many options. If the criticism does not go any deeper, people might think it's because the critic is not very sophisticated and the problem lies with them and not the movie.
@@spaghettibolognese5838why shouldn't they count? Strange Thing about the johnsons opened most doors to Aster. Obviously you cannot compare a short movie with a long one, but if we're talking about preferences they should be considered for sure.
It has the structure of Hamlet: Beau being paralyzed even though he knows the evil of his mother; Beau's "sister" "drowning" like Ophelia, a play within a play to "catch his conscious", and Beau's inaction in the face of overwhelming evidence causing his demise. But it also feels like a combination of the Truman show with the surveillance, and Kafka's "the trial" with Beau being on trial but not even knowing it. It also has many layers of detail, for instance one advert at the mother's house says "housing those who abuse our products" - explaining the insanity of Beau's low income housing. The Wasserman's directly parallel the real life opioid pushing Sackler family of Purdue drugs.
I really enjoyed Beau is Afraid, it definitely took risks but I admired it for that and it’s pleasing to see Mr Scorsese praising the picture and Aster’s techniques!
I watched Ari's film Beau Is Afraid in the cinema yesterday and loved it. I can see some similarities between it and Scorsese's amazing black comedy After Hours. Ironically, even though Beau If Afraid is more thoroughly surreal I think it's also more 'real', as you assume a lot of the crazy events are simply 'as the protagonist sees it' .... whereas in After Hours, it simply appears to be a comically nightmarish world for everyone. So Beau Is Afraid is a bit more like something like American Psycho but with an everyman not a murderer. What I especially love about Beau Is Afraid is how it doesn't 'save' the viewer with occasional reminders of hard realities in the film, instead giving you an entirely surreal experience and forcing you to choose how much you think the events represent what's really happening around the protagonist. I love that honesty, as I think we all see 100% of our own lives through a psychological lens (or lenses), and that 'true truth' and 'enlightenment' are fantasies that don't reflect reality.
The King of Comedy is not only my favorite comedy film of all time, it's also one of the most subtly eerie and uniquely disturbing films I've ever seen. Ari Aster seems to be one of the very few current filmmakers who are trying to combine humor with horror in a way that's a million miles removed from movies like Shaun of the Dead, Ready or Not, You're Next, What We Do In The Shadows, etc.
@@princesmith8008 It's definitely not a typical comedy, but it certainly has broad comedic archetypes like the Straight Man and Obnoxious Moron Who Can't Take A Hint like the ones found in What About Bob, The Cable Guy, and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
@@sifatshams1113 Yeah, it's more like a satirical crime rather than a typical comedy film. But I agree that it does have some extremely funny scenes like the one with the housekeeper ("What's wrong? Everything is wrong!" lol) and also the scene in which that psycho lady yells at Jerry saying that she's wants to "do something crazy tonight" lmao. I don't know whether I'm supposed to laugh at those scenes or not, but they were so unironically hilarious to me lol.
@@HymnLee We don't see much of that nowadays, do we? Just disagree with someone and that's all it takes for the keyboard warriors to declare war on you.
just watched it two days ago, and the movie still sinking in (i loved it, i hated it, i love it again,and so on), but i got at home and tried to remember what movie has got me with the same rush of the first act of Beau is afraid....and i just thought about it for a while and than i got it....that chaotic urban nightmare feel and hysterical pitch black comedy is from After Hours from mr Scorcese. So cool to see they both together, and see Martin recognition of a young filmaker its just beautiful.
There are some spoilers for those wondering. I’d suggest watching this after the film. :) Ari’s my favorite filmmaker. Glad to be able to “grow up” with him. It’s a privilege. I love him muchly and I’m very happy for him. 😭 But Beau… W h a t w a s t h a t… In a good way. 😂
you know that quoute that goes something like "art comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable"? I think beau is afraid masterly shows the concept of mommy issues from the point of view of a jewish man, just in a way that makes people either relate to it or extremely uncomfortable.
Watched it yesterday. I was so dazed after the film was over because i didnt know what to make of it. It was very difficult for me to comprehend what happened for real what was hallucinations if there were any at all or if it was all a dream. However ari said in an interview the the movie is basically a dive in baues psyche. And thats what matters in my opinion. What actually was fact or illusion in the movie is a secondary thing to focus on. As the movie leveled into my head i think i am starting to like it a lot more than my initial reaction. Really exceptional work. I am still at shock(in a good way) analysing all the conflicting ideas i have about this story.
I agree: in Beau and other surrealist movies, I think it's not so important what's "real" and what's not, because it all has symbolic meaning, and the storytelling calls attention to the fact that none if it is real, i.e. it's all a movie. Objective reality takes a backseat to subjective experience.
Psyched to see this one. I just watched the BEAU (Short) not that long ago and can't wait to see how he will blend them together with is earlier work. Thanks for filming this. 🤩
It's great that a director as esteemed as Scorsese is supporting genuinely talented directors. Must suck for plastic movie makers like marvel creators.
Scorsese is Cineast with a big C. He's a voracious student of the craft and so of course he keeps up with newer artists. He wrote Bong Joon Ho a letter after watching Parasite, that's the kind of person Scorsese is, generous and open to new voices.
Unfortunately I think a lot of the DiCaprio stuff is not just their good relationship, but it's crucial that he's there to get certain movies greenlight. Hoping that changes for Joaquin post Oscar, there's a ton of people like Ari and ridley Scott who think he's the Goat
@@brandonkylemarks I know some people say the Scorsese-DiCaprio collaborations aren’t quite as good as the Scorsese-De Niro collaborations, but you can’t deny that the partnership with Leo has been hugely beneficial for both of their careers finding new audiences and telling new stories, I think The Departed was almost just as great as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and GoodFellas and The Wolf of Wall Street was probably Leo’s best performance in a Scorsese film and maybe his career as a whole. I definitely think Joaquin would be a great fit for any Scorsese film as a lead or in a supporting role!
the whole movie felt like a direct representation of my anxiety, depression, guilt, emotional blackmail and catastrophizing. seriously. it makes me wonder how this movie feels to people who never dealt with similar trauma on the deep level. with my experience it made absolute perfect sense from start to finish and the simile was mastefully done
Not sure if it was covered here, but I noticed watching Beau that there may be a connection to a Scorsese classic, with a certain stiff body being awkwardly carried around kind of resembling the plaster mold in After Hours
His body of work is pretty far up there among the greatest to ever do it, but I agree, his contributions to film in supporting other filmmakers and preserving great unknown films is greater than his obvious brilliance as a director
Got the day off … made a coffee and now I get this? Thank you 0:44 “I’ve seen a lot of pictures” haha Also- love how they have a security guard just off screen. These men need to be protected at all costs lol. Brilliant dudes making timeless movies
@@benjamindixon1904ell the whole audience laughed so it’s not just me. It’s a classic Scorsese moment. His love for film is unparalleled and his passion shines through his speech. It’s admirable and offers a joyful laugh that’s all Edit just realized you’re pulling a Pesci lol
Seeing Scorsese and Aster is like seeing the master and his student and regarding Beau is Afraid, it's arguably one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen, and to be honest Joaquin Phoenix nailed the character after he had won the Oscar for his Joker's performance.
I saw the movie last night and while I left quite confused and befuddled, I tend to cope with my befuddlement by watching explainer videos and stuff like this. Many of them have changed my mind about my initial take on the film. Still think the run time could have been decreased quite a bit, but far be it from me to decide what gets cut.
Thanks for this. It would be perfect if it had subtitles, though. English is not my native language and it’s hard to understand completely because of the echo 😢
Is this conversation available anywhere with better audio? I find it quite hard to follow, and automatic captions also can’t seem to make heads or tails of it
For me, a friend of mine happened to go on twitter and randomly stumbled upon a tweet with a link selling tickets to the event, he bought as many tickets as he could and asked a bunch of ppl and I said yes instantly. It was one of the greatest movie going experiences of my life
Completely love bow is afraid total and utter masterpiece literally amazing on all sides the performance, the camera, the story I've never seen a more insane story quite honestly
@@russell35 but do they mention or talk about scenes or acts here? On the Ari Joaquin podcast they talk about Beau calling someone etc, all that is spoiler for me :-(
@@rockyelvis Not 100% sure. Some of it was hard to hear. Just save it to watch later just to be safe and see the movie as soon as you can. Dont forget to bring tissues. Youll need them for your palms.
Imagine Martin Scorsese not only watching your movie once, but liking it so much he watches it again...
He probably watches anything worth a second thought at least twice.
How do you not have a panic attack listening to one of your heroes gush over your work?
He had to watch it again because he didn't understand the movie
Martin has said before he thinks Ari is one of the greatest young directors currently working today and I think that’s just amazing

Anyone who’s watched After Hours knows why Marty likes Ari
Thanks for uploading this!!! 😍
You did a great thing by recording this.
Got the day off … made a coffee and now I get this? Thank you
0:44 “I’ve seen a lot of pictures” haha
Also- love how they have a security guard just off screen. These men need to be protected at all costs lol. Brilliant dudes making timeless movies
How is that funny?
@@benjamindixon1904ell the whole audience laughed so it’s not just me. It’s a classic Scorsese moment. His love for film is unparalleled and his passion shines through his speech. It’s admirable and offers a joyful laugh that’s all
Edit just realized you’re pulling a Pesci lol
These movies of his need to be rated NC17. These are the only movies I’ve seen and thought “should this be legal?”
wish i could hear anything they were saying, marty might b the only person i'd like to hear analyze this movie
Seeing Scorsese and Aster is like seeing the master and his student and regarding Beau is Afraid, it's arguably one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen, and to be honest Joaquin Phoenix nailed the character after he had won the Oscar for his Joker's performance.
I saw this film weeks ago…and it refuses to exit my brain.
Thank you so much for this !
just got back from it. a truly genius metaphorical masterpiece
I wish it was screened more or at least available to stream, I never got to see it
I just love how clueless all of you are in the comments section
Thank you for this, seriously!
Ari Aster will be the remembered for modern horror for a very long time
This movie feels like its in the same universe as smiling friends
I saw the movie last night and while I left quite confused and befuddled, I tend to cope with my befuddlement by watching explainer videos and stuff like this. Many of them have changed my mind about my initial take on the film. Still think the run time could have been decreased quite a bit, but far be it from me to decide what gets cut.
Thanks for this. It would be perfect if it had subtitles, though. English is not my native language and it’s hard to understand completely because of the echo 😢
Turn em on in TH-cam
Ari has gotta just be on the FUCKI G MOON! ❤❤❤😂😂🎉🎉🎉
Are there any spoilers in the interview?
God, imagine being THAT close to Martin Scorsese though..
This is too good
Is there a second half to this interview?
Loved this movie so much
Thanks for this.
Is this conversation available anywhere with better audio? I find it quite hard to follow, and automatic captions also can’t seem to make heads or tails of it
The movie was a TRIP, but I loved it.!!!!
Can’t believe I missed this live. How did you get tickets??
For me, a friend of mine happened to go on twitter and randomly stumbled upon a tweet with a link selling tickets to the event, he bought as many tickets as he could and asked a bunch of ppl and I said yes instantly. It was one of the greatest movie going experiences of my life
That was so random. I really didn’t “love” it. But I got the message.
Good job one person’s trash is another person’s treasure :)
0:30 is what a Scorsese throat noise sounds like
based and Crystalpilled
please put some french translation to this ! thank you so much
i would pay money to have someone transcribe this..
THNK YOU!!!
Completely love bow is afraid total and utter masterpiece literally amazing on all sides the performance, the camera, the story I've never seen a more insane story quite honestly
Anyone got a better audio of this talk?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this spoiler-free? Hasn't premiered here yet!!!!!
You cant really spoil this movie.
@@russell35 but do they mention or talk about scenes or acts here? On the Ari Joaquin podcast they talk about Beau calling someone etc, all that is spoiler for me :-(
@@rockyelvis Not 100% sure. Some of it was hard to hear. Just save it to watch later just to be safe and see the movie as soon as you can. Dont forget to bring tissues. Youll need them for your palms.
No it's not spoiler free. It's light on spoilers, but I would just save this video for after you see it.
@@vladimirhorowitz thanks bro!!!!!!!
Beau was laugh out loud funny, straight comedy not really horror
nao to entendendo nada do que ele ta falando. tem algum video original?
I cant with that laughing dude
Isnt it the dream of every young director?
What a dream!
Does anyone know what term Ari said Laurence Stern coined? Sounds like he said “servantic” around 9:30
Cervantic, Miguel de Cervante the author of Don Quixote.
my two fathers
What a legend. 80yrs old but mentally not showing signs!
Can we get Marty a better chair?
Where was this?
