No win for Baby just pulling out another pair of sunglasses after Bernthal smacks the red pair off his face? One of my favorite small moments of the film
@Rishad Ahmed Dunkirk. Which beat Baby Driver for Best Editing, Best Sound Mixing and Best Sound Editing. It was a good film, no doubt, but this sweep of those awards seemed a little.... generous.
Fun Fact: They couldn't get the rights to use Michel Myers masks so they asked Mike if they could use his face instead and he said yes. Still a great joke.
N Mine yea I think it’s real bc he was definitely gonna get out on parole early bc he’s a good guy and debora would definitely pick him up in the way he wanted
One thing I noticed while rewatching is that when he's getting coffee for the jobs it's always black, but once he thinks he's "out" and finally orders a coffee for himself from the diner, he gets cream and sugar.
They actually didn’t want him to have that T-Rex line because it made him seem more stupid and the writers wanted him to seem more intelligent but Edgar decided to keep it in because it was funny and he said his intelligence is proven throughout the film
It also reflects when he said to debora that he’d spoken to her more than anyone all year in the laundromat scene. Probably hasn’t spoken that much his whole life.
To me it always came off as him having read the name before, but never having heard it, since hes a) always got his headphones in (so wouldnt be able to hear other people talking about them, in the off chance they are), and b) his dad is deaf, so wouldnt be able to say the name, and would most likely just spell it out if he ever referenced them.
Okay I know this is a really obscure detail, but it really really amazed me when I saw it. The scene where Baby steals the old lady's car (where he returns her purse) and he sits there messing with the radio to find a song to drive to, he ends up on station 97.1 I live in Atlanta, where the movie was staged and shot, and 97.1 is a classic rock station, which obviously fits with what song comes on. The fact that a detail like that was thought out blows me away
the_book_of_trentintin unrelated, but here in the Philippines, 97.1 is named the Love Radio. It specializes in love songs but it’s also a talk radio that interviews people
Near the start he asks if baby uses the music to drown out his tennitus and he replied with “yeh and he keeps me moving” so when buddy’s shoots his MP3 player it’s to stop him moving
It's also worthy to note that when Darling said "When Buddy sees red, you see nothing but black", Barts was wearing a red jacket, and Buddy was wearing a black jacket.
@@Corsaka adding to the bull analogy, (stolen from another video btw) baby was first seen driving a dodge CHALLENGER while buddy was driving a dodge CHARGER. challenger could also be seen as a matador's red towel thing
I love how his foster dad feels the speaker to “hear” the music, and later when baby gets guns shot near his ears, he can’t hear as well, so when Deborah is driving the car he is in the passenger seat, and puts his hand on the speaker the same way his foster dad did. Someone may have already said this but I love this detail.
Excellent, yeah, at that moment in the movie, he can't hear because buddy had shot that 45 next to both of his ears. He want to hear his mom's voice in the speakers so he puts his hand on the speaker. Nice.
That's because he's in the car without headphones. But it was a nice call back to his foster dad. Did you also notice the music gets much clearer once his hand is on the speaker?
One of my favourite little details which benefited from me watching it through headphones is that when Griff takes out one of Baby's headphones in the early scene, the music playing shifts to one side to mimic the how Baby is now hearing the music
Another great thing is that this is always done throughout the entire film. We hear the music the same way baby does. Except for at the end when buddy takes the ear bud out to listen too in the diner. That time the music actually get louder to pull us into the scene and to make us realize how close all the characters are getting like what the camera is doing.
Man I’m late but something I thought was super cool was how Doc told him he’d have to keep his foot on the gas for 25 years. Then after turning himself in he got sentenced 25 years in prison. It makes the connection that if he kept running he wouldn’t be free anyway. It would feel like a prison. But in the end he makes the right choice and gets parole so happy ending!
have you noticed in the scene of him driving away with debora. he has his hand on the speaker to feel the vibrations, seens he went deaf from the gunshots but i guess happy enough :)
@@Trixless I don't think he was deafened by the gunshots cause you can still hear things when it's going from his perspective, just faintly. Seems like he just damaged his hearing further if anything.
Another great thing: the opening car chase is (mostly) geographically plausible. Up until they enter the highway, all those streets are connected and in order. You can track in on google maps. There is a small jump from where they get on the highway to where they first show them on the highway, and a bigger jump from where they get off to the parking garage, but that's about it.
My own addition to this discussion(might have been mentioned elsewhere). Buddy and Darling are a parallel to Miles and Debora, although they kept running. Buddy would do anything for Darling(and she for him) and Baby would probably do the same for Debora(and she for him). They are B(uddy) and D(arling), the ones that kept going down the bad path until they could do no other thing, while B(aby) and D(ebora) stopped before the point of no return. Both Buddy and Baby are capable of compassion(like Buddy bonding a bit with Baby, or telling him to run away), but also destruction, especially if it concerns the one they love.
No one's ever noticed that the whole movie set and style was like 50's to 60's style. I even thought it was set on those decades, until the smart phone showed up that means it was set on 2010's. It's just clearly shows how he loves this style, and adding his style to the whole movie, because of course, this movie is all about himself.
Who’s no one? Like, your take makes no sense. Watch this crap again, choke on your words over a keyboard and maybe when your consciousness is surrendered to your body an original thought will come out.
NTD Films > Queen is what brought them together originally now it plays while they're being torn apart so irony or something? Ironic bookends, maybe? IDK....
i dunno if you caught this but when Baby tells Debbie "You don't belong in this world," it's another sample! Joe signed something similar to Baby earlier in the film
My absolute favorite detail is when Baby and Deborah are in the car after their "wining and dining". Something extremely subtle is immediately after she closes the door to leave the tinnitus returns, yet besides this the only times Baby's tinnitus is prevalent are when he's not listening to music. Besides music, Deborah is one of the only things that allows him to focus on life, such that his tinnitus does not bother him.
just something I noticed, But Baby moves the same way he drives- it’s fluid and lyrical, almost like dancing. As someone who moves like that I know it is DIFFICULT to string movemt like that together- so extra kudos to the actor for that
also, the fact that before he kills bats, he’s watching to make sure the teller is gone/can’t see before he drives forward. easily one of the best movies of the decade.
Fun theory: I always think that Buddy is basically future Baby if he keeps up with the life of crime. Both don't talk much to other people outside of their lovers and both share their love for music, probably why Buddy empathizes with Baby throughout most of the movie. Also notice how Buddy is always careful and reserved when it comes to dealing with heist until Monica is dead. After that he goes full Bats mode on Baby
@@joshuabaker5990 Yup me as well. I got knockout when I was a kid and took a serious headshot that left a bump on my head from the time I was 4 until I started highschool. My ears still ring pretty loudly if it's ever super quiet.
Same, microphone and DAW feedback through my deep-seated earbuds when I was a mid-teen made me temporarily deaf. Plus drumming. I often don't notice the tinnitus anymore until I start binging music again, guess my brain learned how to filter stuff out until I want to hear a whole spectrum
It's the attention to detail that I just adore in the film. I love the scene where he's getting coffee and listening to music. Sure it isn't realistic that graffiti follows lyrics, but it is so stylised, like how gunshots going along to music isn't realistic, but as a viewer it is such a cool and incredible experience.
I know this video is 3 years old at this point, but, another thing that was missed, if you watch Baby walk through the junkyard from 17:13 to 17:18 you can see the same red WRX that he was driving in the first part of the movie
The FACT that they specifically use a Subaru Impreza WRX that's painted red in the first scene clearly shows some attention to detail. For one, WRX's are typically painted blue, with gold rims. It's a stereotype that sportier-trim Subarus are known to be blue and gold. Mixing that up to red and black may have exemplified how different Baby's life is compared to others. Or maybe they just got a red and black WRX. Who knows. But on the topic of that WRX, *good god the driving.* Don't get me wrong, the bits where sound effects are on the beat with the songs are just utterly blissful, but *GOD* is the driving good. It's so beautifully done that I didn't know it was possible to make an art out of driving. It's what got me hooked on the movie and it's my favorite part for sure.
In the script, it was originally going to be a Honda Civic, also in red. They probably picked the WRX as it can pull off maneuvers the Civic can't (AWD vs. FWD, go figure) while still being understated and blending in with traffic, especially on that shell game scene with the Chevy Cruze and VW Jetta.
The Subaru WRX STI has got me loving them again, I USED to love them and forgot, and now I remembered them when this movie came out and hope of owning an old Suburu WRX STI or not one day when I grow up.
@@karlostrino3620 I know that I'm super late to commenting this, but one of the WRXs was actually converted to RWD to be able to do some of the stunts. I believe the one that does that amazing 180 between the van and the truck in the alley in the opening sequence was the RWD one
A fun one I noticed on my second viewing: Following the Hocus Pocus chase scene, Baby is running down the street after buddy shoots his iPod. He holds two fingers to his throat while he's sprinting and I assume he was "listening" to the beat of his pulse. He didn't have any music at the time, and he's shown "listening" to music at the end of the movie with his hand (something he learned from Joe).
Sorry but no one has commented on a comment with 588 like as of counting so I thought I’d comment, if you’re still reading this have a great day and only ever commit a bank heist if baby is your getaway driver :-))
3:48 what i love is how the first time Baby pulls out some red-rimmed sunglasses at first after the glasses are knocked away. For the (majority) of the rest of the film we see him in black-rimmed sunglasses so we can assume those are his sunglasses of choice. When John Bernthal's character knocks the red-rimmed sunglasses off only then does he pull out the black-rimmed sunglasses. Baby knew that the red rimmed glasses were getting broken as well and planned ahead. Edgar Wright will always be my favourite director for details like this
I’m upset you didn’t point out how fucking eerie that Diner scene with Buddy and Baby is. It actually made me as worried as I would actually be in that situation.
9:46 I love how Baby says queen at a normal volume because he’s used to talking and having earphones in and Buddy raises his voice because it hasn’t clicked with him that he doesn’t need to speak up over the music because everybody else can’t hear it.
I have permanent tinnitus. I don't know why, I've had it since I was born. Everyone, and I mean everyone, needs to wear hearing protection when working with loud machinery. Turn down your music. *You do not want tinnitus.* It's a background to everything you do. You won't sleep. You hear it in your dreams. It never stops. Never falters. Always ringing. Be careful with your ears. You can't reverse hearing damage.
Edgar Wright is a perfect example of how style IS substance, if you know what you're doing. His extremely stylized and detail-filled method of directing lets him incorporate an immense amount of meaning into everything.
People do the same with Hot Fuzz seeing it as a cool action cop movie, but if you know British crime dramas, or British television in general it has so many more layers. From the homages to old shows, bits people have played, and even movies. Freaking love Wrights movies.
Luke Farinelli Lmao nope. Edgar and the people involved with props, costumes, set design, cinematography have all openly talked about the intent behind half the stuff in this video in behind the scenes footage. Sometimes people give a shit about their craft and put in meaning for those who love the art and not just the spectacle (and it's fine to just love the spectacle, but to hand-wave away the care and attention an artist puts into their work when art is ABOUT the work is just rude). The "drapes are blue because they're blue" line isn't even true for books lol. I know it's the Hot Meme About English Class to act like the author could never intend their details to mean anything, but that's similarly bullshit. It's called short-hand and it's an exceptionally useful tool for setting a scene/character efficiently and subtlety.
I must disagree about the ending being in baby's head, the black and white on both scenes where Deborah is dressed in 50's waiting for him is too much to be a coincidence, fading from this black and white facade in the second scene into a full colour shot is most likely Edgars way of showing the audience that after Miles (Baby) imagined getting away from the life of crime and running away with Deborah it still came true after he served his sentence and most likely was granted bail after the large number of people that volunteered to be an attestant against his charges in the character witness statements in the court scene at the end. That evidence alone as well as the fact that Deborah stayed by his side throughout all of his efforts to escape towards the end of the film and still tried to escape from the police in the scene where they are cornered in on the bridge shows her determination to have a life with Miles and drive west in a car they cant afford with a plan they dont have. just sayin.
Theres no way he got out of that on bail or good behavior. He killed Bats during a robbery, and buddy after the fact, which is felony murder all by itself, and pretty much gets you the death penalty. He'd also be indicted on all the heists he pulled during the movie, the Brinks driver, Doc, the gun-selling cops, the gas station attendant. He would never see daylight again in Georgia. That last scene was definitely his last wish-fulfillment fantasy
While I don't know how much he would get for the heists he has been a part of, the killings of his partners seem to me like they can easily be justified as self-defence in court, seeing how they either threatened to shoot him or tried to run him over and shoot at his girlfriend.
@@rgbgeoff6543 what? In the film, Baby explicitly gets 25 years and the possibility of parole after 5 years. You could use those points to argue that he wouldn't get parole, but that seems unlikely given his good character. (Emphasis on the seems.)
Actually, in the scene when he read the postcard one by one and you can clearly see the later postcards didn't have a word on it, yeah, brutal. My theory is that she's slowly moving on with her life and just put an end to this. And the final's just in Miles's head.
I like how I can still feel genuinely sympathetic for Buddy despite how things went. He was certainly not a good guy, but the fact that the care between him and Darling was actually real and her death sent him into such a rage, on top of him trying to actually bond with Baby and then basically giving him the free getaway before Bats showed up. Like, if Bats hadn't showed up and Buddy did let Baby go, that's basically at least a morally gray happy ending. Bats definitely felt like he would be the antagonist, but even his crazy ass did keep from just popping Baby in that car. At first you might have been led to think it was restraint because of Doc, but nah this mans just straight up nukes Doc's contact in a heartbeat. So even he has moments where he's still a human with some kind of decency to him, even if he *does* then turn around and do literally every illegal and or bad thing he can think of to make things go haywire. All in all I did like the movie. I didn't actually expect them to get caught at the border, but now that I think about it of course they would... after all, Baby wasn't the one driving that getaway car since he'd been knocked out.
In the opening chase with the WRX, right before they go into the parking garage, they go down an alley way, and Miles (baby) sees a cop at the end of it drive bye. He hits the brake and the clutch. Hitting the clutch prevents the car from stalling, and more importantly it makes the car quiet as it drops the revs to idle. I loved that detail.
If you watch the full scene of 15:27, you realise that Baby is holding his hand up to the speaker and feeling the vibrations of the song just like his foster dad did earlier on in the film. When I first saw it I wanted to cry, it’s such a sweet little scene.
15:12 one amazing thing you missed is how this is seemingly set up for buddy to try and shoot Debora, any time a character says “so I am gonna take something you love” it usually refers to a loved one (family, lover, friend, etc.) but instead he basically killed Baby’s hearing because Baby’s favorite thing is music
Also, if you have headphones or surround sound, whenever one of his earphones are out, you hear the music in the same side his headphone is removed, buddy takes his left earphone, you only hear it in the right side!
Baby Driver is criminally underrated. It is easily one of my favorite films of the 2000s. EDIT: Tremendous video, as well. Beautifully captured this film's brilliance.
3:40 One of my favorite “timed” gags in the film. This woman is shouting up (presumably at her boyfriend or husband who is being unfaithful) and screaming “Is she in there?” Cue the song’s chorus: “Yeah.”
16:20 I disagree. The earlier scene is entirely grey, it could be inferred that his black-and-white-TV world is his dream world. In the end, it starts grey, but the colours end, indication his dream world merging with his real world. He has achieved his dream.
The bull on TV being a foreshadow of Darling’s remarks on the relentless nature of Buddy wasn’t so hard to catch after the second time around, but I believe there’s another parallel you can draw between the bull and Darling’s lines: she said something about “betting on all reds at the roulette table” when Buddy asked what they’d do after the heist (the gas stop gum scene I believe), and casino roulettes give you an option to bet on RED or BLACK. Just an observation. Another interesting foreshadow is Bats wearing a long-sleeve shirt with a king of hearts design on it, a card known for its moniker “suicide king” due to the appearance. His demise wasn’t from suicide, but the smell of death was right under our noses the entire time.
This video truly shows the magic of this movie like damn he pointed out so many metaphors and so much foreshadowing that I never noticed. Utter brilliance
def a movie that deserves all the wins and praise it gets!! a brilliantly made movie, w/ amazing performances, steller action (driving mostly) sequences, and amazing soundtracks throughout!! Edgar Wright continues to prove why he is among the A-list directors!!!
Hunter I don’t really like how they handled buddy at the end. The chemistry with him and baby was great and I hope buddy and baby would go against bats at the end. But John hamms performance was great
Obligatory reminder that Edgar Wright's Last Night in Soho is also full of beautiful, lesser known classic rock songs synced up *perfectly* with the events on the screen.
Glad you chose to include Kevin Spacey and not avoid talking about this film. This movie was brilliant and Kevin Space too is one of my favorite actors. It breaks my heart the things he'd done, and I think he completely deserves every bit of punishment that he gets, I don't know him and am not defending him in any way, but speaking EXCLUSIVELY about him as an actor, there is no denying his talent, to hate his movies because of the things he is guilty of makes zero sense, acting is acting, period.
people who have never heard gunshots don't know how loud they are, even if you did not have tinnitus and heard the gunshots next to your ear, you might get deaf in one of your ears. there is a reason they war headphones when shooting.
@@RealCristianoPenaldo While a gunshot is loud as hell it blows out your eardrum at most, making you deaf for 3-4 weeks, but then you get your hearing back. Same thing with explosions, permanent damage is exceedingly rare.
it may be creeping but actual damage isnt a thing that happens every time you shoot a firearm without ear plugs in. After three years in the infantry and having my earpro fall out quite often even with something as large as a M2 i still have very good hearing. As for what was done in the movie, it was at least somewhat accurate.
First movie I nearly cried from in years. Baby is set up as an innocent, cute and sweet character, when they arrested him I felt so horrible for him. Truly a wonderful movie
I love the story on how the Austin Powers mask came to be. It originally was supposed to be the Michael Myers mask, but they couldn’t get permission so Wright rewrote it with the Austin Powers mask, which Mike Myers read and thought it was funny and gave them permission to use the Austin Powers mask. Which gave birth to one of my favorite scenes which leads to my favorite chase sequence in this entire film.
During the job right after Jon Bernthal's character tells Baby that he'll eventually have to get blood on his hands with the kind of work he does, Baby wears the gloves Doc gave him earlier which are blood red on the palms
"every sound effect is on beat, in time..." - and in tone! You will have to pitchShift almost every sound to achieve that kind of result. Every sound should be (and it is) in tone, in key of the song
0:58 I really think Baby is bothered by the crime tho. Like if he was just sitting there watching it with an indifferent expression then maybe you could say he was just waiting, but from his gasp and facial expressions, he does seem genuinely upset by it. And later in the movie, during the armored car heist, he lets the crew out of the car, then pulls forward just far enough so that he can't see what's happening when they attack the security guard. Honestly, I think that part of the reason Baby is so focused on the music during heists is to drown out the things that are going on around him so he can pretend they aren't happening.
I bet at the end of shooting day, the cameraman went home, kissed his wife, went to the bathroom and cried under the shower for all the obsessive-compulsive demands Edgar Wright insisted on him
The few details I noticed on my first watch was in the briefing/ breakdown. Baby plays with a car and it falls of the edge of the table towards Buddy... who eventually meets a similar fate, awesome foreshadowing. And in the same scene I noticed Bats’ lights on his glasses turn off perhaps referencing him going to die in this heist, or... have his lights out. This scene just resonated with me because I felt as an audience member I felt I was watching through the directors eyes. I love this movie!
When Baby and Debora steal the car after the bar scene, you can hear the song 'Know How'. A line in this song is: "Ain't no Hocus Pocus, I just get you into Focus." The song playing at the foot chase scene is Focus by Hocus Pocus.
Holy, I'm so ecstatic to hear you pronounce tinnitus correctly. I'm in PA school [graduating in August] and it has become a crazy pet peeve of mine. Thank you to your wife!
one little detail not mentioned in this video that i found: near the end of the movie a car honks while music is playing and the doppler effect makes the pitch of the horn match the music
Here, years later and I gotta say sometimes style is substance, and I feel like that’s something even harder to do, to make it perfectly balanced with the right amount of style that is bursting out of your mind yet still isn’t too much that it turns you off. Some of my favorite films and games are like that, you can give me a story concept that’s so simple that a AI can come up with it, yet the style can turn that simplicity into something astonishing, and when each day we get tools that make film and game creation easier and easier, when an iPhone can shoot in 4K 60fps? When you can get realistic scenery, character and lighting just like that with game engine like UE5? You have to have certain personal style to stay in people’s heart. So to that I say, god bless this film, I love it so much.
15:15 since baby had tinnitus this means anything that will make his ears ring will be amplified and I have it to and that’s exactly how it feels great job to Edgar for putting so much detail in this movie!
Love this, as always. However, I think the ending is a real moment. It is the fantasy set-up but brought to modern day and in color. The rainbow after the rain.
FloraWest I totally agree, I believe that the director made the choice to change the black and white fantasy to a beautiful and colorful reality. Gosh I love this movie and it’s mega happy ending
I learnt that in a cut line, towards the end of the film, Doc actually repeats the “we’re a team” line back to Baby when he tells him to run. Makes me wonder why Edgar cut it.

I love how his foster dad feels the speaker to “hear” the music, and later when baby gets guns shot near his ears, he can’t hear as well, so when Deborah is driving the car he is in the passenger seat, and puts his hand on the speaker the same way his foster dad did. Someone may have already said this but I love this detail.
CowMoosh did not see that thx
Excellent, yeah, at that moment in the movie, he can't hear because buddy had shot that 45 next to both of his ears. He want to hear his mom's voice in the speakers so he puts his hand on the speaker. Nice.
That scene made me cry so much
That's because he's in the car without headphones. But it was a nice call back to his foster dad. Did you also notice the music gets much clearer once his hand is on the speaker?
@@gibster9624 how wouldn't I?
One of my favourite little details which benefited from me watching it through headphones is that when Griff takes out one of Baby's headphones in the early scene, the music playing shifts to one side to mimic the how Baby is now hearing the music
i thought i was trippin honestly
Another great thing is that this is always done throughout the entire film. We hear the music the same way baby does. Except for at the end when buddy takes the ear bud out to listen too in the diner. That time the music actually get louder to pull us into the scene and to make us realize how close all the characters are getting like what the camera is doing.

My thought: “You can’t post the whole movie on TH-cam”
better words have never been spoken
Plot is kinda dumb but yeah still good movie
its generic but its so well made that it feels so fresh tbh
always ferda Edgar Wright doesn't need a deep plot to make a great film
@@codypendency9482 thats Edgar wright, this compared to the hot fuzz plot is completely normal
Man I’m late but something I thought was super cool was how Doc told him he’d have to keep his foot on the gas for 25 years. Then after turning himself in he got sentenced 25 years in prison. It makes the connection that if he kept running he wouldn’t be free anyway. It would feel like a prison. But in the end he makes the right choice and gets parole so happy ending!
have you noticed in the scene of him driving away with debora. he has his hand on the speaker to feel the vibrations, seens he went deaf from the gunshots but i guess happy enough :)
@@Trixless I don't think he was deafened by the gunshots cause you can still hear things when it's going from his perspective, just faintly. Seems like he just damaged his hearing further if anything.
He got 5 years in prison
Sentenced to 25 years, early parole at 5
Isn’t the end a dream sequence
Not acknowledging the fact the the drivers name is miles
Yoseph Bailey where did you see that ?
Quentin Sirjean at the end in Debora’s letter
Oh my god... I didn't get that
THATS MY NAME!!!
I think his last name was Prower. Now read his full name
Another great thing: the opening car chase is (mostly) geographically plausible. Up until they enter the highway, all those streets are connected and in order. You can track in on google maps. There is a small jump from where they get on the highway to where they first show them on the highway, and a bigger jump from where they get off to the parking garage, but that's about it.
My own addition to this discussion(might have been mentioned elsewhere). Buddy and Darling are a parallel to Miles and Debora, although they kept running. Buddy would do anything for Darling(and she for him) and Baby would probably do the same for Debora(and she for him).
They are B(uddy) and D(arling), the ones that kept going down the bad path until they could do no other thing, while B(aby) and D(ebora) stopped before the point of no return.
Both Buddy and Baby are capable of compassion(like Buddy bonding a bit with Baby, or telling him to run away), but also destruction, especially if it concerns the one they love.
Woah I hadn't thought of it like this before but this is really interesting!
Buddy Darling

You'll love Leone. All his movies are based around Morricone's music
Spider-verse kinda did great ngl
and Black Panther too, awesome
No one's ever noticed that the whole movie set and style was like 50's to 60's style. I even thought it was set on those decades, until the smart phone showed up that means it was set on 2010's. It's just clearly shows how he loves this style, and adding his style to the whole movie, because of course, this movie is all about himself.
Yeah, me too, but then I remembered he used an iPod

14:39 Queen is what brought them together originally now it plays while they're being torn apart so irony or something?

@@tigs7774 its the song they were talking about at the beginning, Brighton Rock from Sheer Heart Attack
Queen is what brought them together then their own personal queens are what they are fighting for.
NTD Films > Queen is what brought them together originally now it plays while they're being torn apart so irony or something?
Ironic bookends, maybe? IDK....
Brighton Rock is also a book with almost the same story :)
i dunno if you caught this but when Baby tells Debbie "You don't belong in this world," it's another sample! Joe signed something similar to Baby earlier in the film
I wasn't sure if he ever meant to say that anyway.
My absolute favorite detail is when Baby and Deborah are in the car after their "wining and dining". Something extremely subtle is immediately after she closes the door to leave the tinnitus returns, yet besides this the only times Baby's tinnitus is prevalent are when he's not listening to music. Besides music, Deborah is one of the only things that allows him to focus on life, such that his tinnitus does not bother him.
I noticed that too and I was like yo wright is a movie genius
just something I noticed, But Baby moves the same way he drives- it’s fluid and lyrical, almost like dancing. As someone who moves like that I know it is DIFFICULT to string movemt like that together- so extra kudos to the actor for that
Another example of him sampling is when he tells Debora, “you don’t belong in this world”. Joe had told him this towards the beginning of the movie.
When Baby turns the radio to 97.1, that’s an actual classic rock station in Atlanta. Love the little details!
It's a country station in Texas, so that just confused me when I saw it
I loved that detail because living near to atlanta i listen to 97.1 The River alot, it’s a very popular station.
Ellis Schmitt it’s a classic rock station here in Chi-Town as well “The Drive”
Also the facts that the coffee cups have the name of a coffee shop in Atlanta on them as well
It's the college radio station I'm on in Mobile, Alabama!
also, the fact that before he kills bats, he’s watching to make sure the teller is gone/can’t see before he drives forward. easily one of the best movies of the decade.
might be because i’m 18 but it is my favourite movie i’ve ever watched,
american psycho is 2nd but baby driver i hold close to my hearth
Fun theory: I always think that Buddy is basically future Baby if he keeps up with the life of crime. Both don't talk much to other people outside of their lovers and both share their love for music, probably why Buddy empathizes with Baby throughout most of the movie.
Also notice how Buddy is always careful and reserved when it comes to dealing with heist until Monica is dead. After that he goes full Bats mode on Baby
Tinnitus is something I have to deal with, and the fact there's a character with it as cool as 'Baby' makes me happy.
I have it too due to hearing aids
hopefully u good... have a great life dud
@@joshuabaker5990 Yup me as well. I got knockout when I was a kid and took a serious headshot that left a bump on my head from the time I was 4 until I started highschool. My ears still ring pretty loudly if it's ever super quiet.
@@gibster9624 hope it gets better
Same, microphone and DAW feedback through my deep-seated earbuds when I was a mid-teen made me temporarily deaf. Plus drumming. I often don't notice the tinnitus anymore until I start binging music again, guess my brain learned how to filter stuff out until I want to hear a whole spectrum
Favorite Easter egg you missed was when at the end, Baby is doing the laundry and washing away his past, only to leave prison in a white shirt.
But that's not what an easter egg is, that's "symbolism".
And the serial number on his shirt in prison is the date that the song baby driver came out.
That’s a tide commercial
It's the attention to detail that I just adore in the film. I love the scene where he's getting coffee and listening to music. Sure it isn't realistic that graffiti follows lyrics, but it is so stylised, like how gunshots going along to music isn't realistic, but as a viewer it is such a cool and incredible experience.
I know this video is 3 years old at this point, but, another thing that was missed, if you watch Baby walk through the junkyard from 17:13 to 17:18 you can see the same red WRX that he was driving in the first part of the movie
Great detail!
holy shit greaaat catch!
I love this film and watched it so many times and I never realized that. Wild catch!
The FACT that they specifically use a Subaru Impreza WRX that's painted red in the first scene clearly shows some attention to detail. For one, WRX's are typically painted blue, with gold rims. It's a stereotype that sportier-trim Subarus are known to be blue and gold. Mixing that up to red and black may have exemplified how different Baby's life is compared to others. Or maybe they just got a red and black WRX. Who knows.
But on the topic of that WRX, *good god the driving.* Don't get me wrong, the bits where sound effects are on the beat with the songs are just utterly blissful, but *GOD* is the driving good. It's so beautifully done that I didn't know it was possible to make an art out of driving. It's what got me hooked on the movie and it's my favorite part for sure.
In the script, it was originally going to be a Honda Civic, also in red. They probably picked the WRX as it can pull off maneuvers the Civic can't (AWD vs. FWD, go figure) while still being understated and blending in with traffic, especially on that shell game scene with the Chevy Cruze and VW Jetta.
The Subaru WRX STI has got me loving them again, I USED to love them and forgot, and now I remembered them when this movie came out and hope of owning an old Suburu WRX STI or not one day when I grow up.
@@karlostrino3620 I know that I'm super late to commenting this, but one of the WRXs was actually converted to RWD to be able to do some of the stunts. I believe the one that does that amazing 180 between the van and the truck in the alley in the opening sequence was the RWD one
@@landonray9517 the drift in that scene was practical; what they did was composite in the obstructions that he drifted around.
Subaru imprezzas are always a win
A fun one I noticed on my second viewing:
Following the Hocus Pocus chase scene, Baby is running down the street after buddy shoots his iPod. He holds two fingers to his throat while he's sprinting and I assume he was "listening" to the beat of his pulse. He didn't have any music at the time, and he's shown "listening" to music at the end of the movie with his hand (something he learned from Joe).
More praise on Ansel. What a brilliant choice for the role of Baby, and I could not see anyone else playing him.
Sorry but no one has commented on a comment with 588 like as of counting so I thought I’d comment, if you’re still reading this have a great day and only ever commit a bank heist if baby is your getaway driver :-))
And even debora. lily james is just the best choice for this role. she is underrated as an actress
this didnt age well
3:48 what i love is how the first time Baby pulls out some red-rimmed sunglasses at first after the glasses are knocked away. For the (majority) of the rest of the film we see him in black-rimmed sunglasses so we can assume those are his sunglasses of choice. When John Bernthal's character knocks the red-rimmed sunglasses off only then does he pull out the black-rimmed sunglasses. Baby knew that the red rimmed glasses were getting broken as well and planned ahead. Edgar Wright will always be my favourite director for details like this
I’m upset you didn’t point out how fucking eerie that Diner scene with Buddy and Baby is. It actually made me as worried as I would actually be in that situation.
9:46 I love how Baby says queen at a normal volume because he’s used to talking and having earphones in and Buddy raises his voice because it hasn’t clicked with him that he doesn’t need to speak up over the music because everybody else can’t hear it.
Wow. Nice little detail i didnt even notice
Good Catch. Its shit like that, that i like about movies.
That's crazy detail probably no one would notice/hear
I have permanent tinnitus. I don't know why, I've had it since I was born. Everyone, and I mean everyone, needs to wear hearing protection when working with loud machinery. Turn down your music. *You do not want tinnitus.* It's a background to everything you do. You won't sleep. You hear it in your dreams. It never stops. Never falters. Always ringing.
Be careful with your ears. You can't reverse hearing damage.
I know your feel man, to never hear silence again sucks but its just something we gotta live with but good on you for telling people about it
I have it really bad in my left ear from lightning going through the phone line and into that ear. The right ear only started recently
i hear ringing in my ears at random times, dont actually know if i have tinnitus or not
@@kelpiee that's typically a sign of an iron deficiency, when it's only occasional
Overflow it with more music... whish it was that simple
Edgar Wright is a perfect example of how style IS substance, if you know what you're doing. His extremely stylized and detail-filled method of directing lets him incorporate an immense amount of meaning into everything.
This video blew my mind. I didn’t catch 90% of the stuff mentioned in this video, haha. I just saw it as a cool action movie.
People do the same with Hot Fuzz seeing it as a cool action cop movie, but if you know British crime dramas, or British television in general it has so many more layers. From the homages to old shows, bits people have played, and even movies. Freaking love Wrights movies.
I'm the same way. Loved the movie, it was great, but DAMN was there a lot packed in there.
Tbh its better to see it as just an action movie. They dig in way too deep in this movie. THE DRAPES ARE BLUE BECAUSE THEYRE BLUE
Luke Farinelli Lmao nope. Edgar and the people involved with props, costumes, set design, cinematography have all openly talked about the intent behind half the stuff in this video in behind the scenes footage. Sometimes people give a shit about their craft and put in meaning for those who love the art and not just the spectacle (and it's fine to just love the spectacle, but to hand-wave away the care and attention an artist puts into their work when art is ABOUT the work is just rude).
The "drapes are blue because they're blue" line isn't even true for books lol. I know it's the Hot Meme About English Class to act like the author could never intend their details to mean anything, but that's similarly bullshit. It's called short-hand and it's an exceptionally useful tool for setting a scene/character efficiently and subtlety.
I loved this movie
I must disagree about the ending being in baby's head, the black and white on both scenes where Deborah is dressed in 50's waiting for him is too much to be a coincidence, fading from this black and white facade in the second scene into a full colour shot is most likely Edgars way of showing the audience that after Miles (Baby) imagined getting away from the life of crime and running away with Deborah it still came true after he served his sentence and most likely was granted bail after the large number of people that volunteered to be an attestant against his charges in the character witness statements in the court scene at the end.
That evidence alone as well as the fact that Deborah stayed by his side throughout all of his efforts to escape towards the end of the film and still tried to escape from the police in the scene where they are cornered in on the bridge shows her determination to have a life with Miles and drive west in a car they cant afford with a plan they dont have.
just sayin.
Theres no way he got out of that on bail or good behavior. He killed Bats during a robbery, and buddy after the fact, which is felony murder all by itself, and pretty much gets you the death penalty. He'd also be indicted on all the heists he pulled during the movie, the Brinks driver, Doc, the gun-selling cops, the gas station attendant. He would never see daylight again in Georgia. That last scene was definitely his last wish-fulfillment fantasy
While I don't know how much he would get for the heists he has been a part of, the killings of his partners seem to me like they can easily be justified as self-defence in court, seeing how they either threatened to shoot him or tried to run him over and shoot at his girlfriend.
@@rgbgeoff6543 There are good arguments either way.
@@rgbgeoff6543 what? In the film, Baby explicitly gets 25 years and the possibility of parole after 5 years. You could use those points to argue that he wouldn't get parole, but that seems unlikely given his good character. (Emphasis on the seems.)
Actually, in the scene when he read the postcard one by one and you can clearly see the later postcards didn't have a word on it, yeah, brutal. My theory is that she's slowly moving on with her life and just put an end to this. And the final's just in Miles's head.
This should have been called “Everything *WRIGHT* about Baby Driver”
Out. Now.
XD
No! Stay, I love it :)
Yeah stay
Exactly xD
I like how I can still feel genuinely sympathetic for Buddy despite how things went. He was certainly not a good guy, but the fact that the care between him and Darling was actually real and her death sent him into such a rage, on top of him trying to actually bond with Baby and then basically giving him the free getaway before Bats showed up. Like, if Bats hadn't showed up and Buddy did let Baby go, that's basically at least a morally gray happy ending.
Bats definitely felt like he would be the antagonist, but even his crazy ass did keep from just popping Baby in that car. At first you might have been led to think it was restraint because of Doc, but nah this mans just straight up nukes Doc's contact in a heartbeat. So even he has moments where he's still a human with some kind of decency to him, even if he *does* then turn around and do literally every illegal and or bad thing he can think of to make things go haywire.
All in all I did like the movie. I didn't actually expect them to get caught at the border, but now that I think about it of course they would... after all, Baby wasn't the one driving that getaway car since he'd been knocked out.
"flirting"
*adds win no. 69*
Nice
It's all about attention to details :D
nice
Also, baby's real name is Miles Prower (miles per hour)
so they just copied from sonic the hedgehog? tails(sonic`s sidekick) name is tails miles prower
I think you’re thinking of Tails from Sonic
I have tinnitus as well so i didn't really notice the ringing, thank you for pointing it out.
That’s actually really shitty to think about. I’m sorry you have to cope with it.
Y'all are making me a hypochondriac, now I can't tell if I'm hearing white noise or actual ringing.
Riley Bauer I only realised it wasn’t normal because of this movie
Eskimo aw shit so when you heard the ringing in the movie, did you just think it was your tinnitus?
Same here!
In the opening chase with the WRX, right before they go into the parking garage, they go down an alley way, and Miles (baby) sees a cop at the end of it drive bye. He hits the brake and the clutch. Hitting the clutch prevents the car from stalling, and more importantly it makes the car quiet as it drops the revs to idle. I loved that detail.
"This here is JD, he puts the Asian in homeinvasion"
favorite line XD
If you watch the full scene of 15:27, you realise that Baby is holding his hand up to the speaker and feeling the vibrations of the song just like his foster dad did earlier on in the film.
When I first saw it I wanted to cry, it’s such a sweet little scene.
"I could probably talk about it for half an hour, but here are the cliffnotes"
Talks about it for 23 minutes

@@DESIRESxOFxTHExHEART yea probably did

15:12 one amazing thing you missed is how this is seemingly set up for buddy to try and shoot Debora, any time a character says “so I am gonna take something you love” it usually refers to a loved one (family, lover, friend, etc.) but instead he basically killed Baby’s hearing because Baby’s favorite thing is music
Also, if you have headphones or surround sound, whenever one of his earphones are out, you hear the music in the same side his headphone is removed, buddy takes his left earphone, you only hear it in the right side!
Huh, thats cool
i noticed that, this movie is so damn good
Baby Driver is criminally underrated. It is easily one of my favorite films of the 2000s.
EDIT:
Tremendous video, as well. Beautifully captured this film's brilliance.

3:40 One of my favorite “timed” gags in the film. This woman is shouting up (presumably at her boyfriend or husband who is being unfaithful) and screaming “Is she in there?” Cue the song’s chorus: “Yeah.”
16:20 I disagree. The earlier scene is entirely grey, it could be inferred that his black-and-white-TV world is his dream world. In the end, it starts grey, but the colours end, indication his dream world merging with his real world. He has achieved his dream.

The bull on TV being a foreshadow of Darling’s remarks on the relentless nature of Buddy wasn’t so hard to catch after the second time around, but I believe there’s another parallel you can draw between the bull and Darling’s lines: she said something about “betting on all reds at the roulette table” when Buddy asked what they’d do after the heist (the gas stop gum scene I believe), and casino roulettes give you an option to bet on RED or BLACK. Just an observation.
Another interesting foreshadow is Bats wearing a long-sleeve shirt with a king of hearts design on it, a card known for its moniker “suicide king” due to the appearance. His demise wasn’t from suicide, but the smell of death was right under our noses the entire time.
This video truly shows the magic of this movie like damn he pointed out so many metaphors and so much foreshadowing that I never noticed. Utter brilliance

Glad you chose to include Kevin Spacey and not avoid talking about this film. This movie was brilliant and Kevin Space too is one of my favorite actors. It breaks my heart the things he'd done, and I think he completely deserves every bit of punishment that he gets, I don't know him and am not defending him in any way, but speaking EXCLUSIVELY about him as an actor, there is no denying his talent, to hate his movies because of the things he is guilty of makes zero sense, acting is acting, period.

For the record, your ears do ring immediately after hearing gunshots. I have experience, guns are loud af
people who have never heard gunshots don't know how loud they are, even if you did not have tinnitus and heard the gunshots next to your ear, you might get deaf in one of your ears. there is a reason they war headphones when shooting.
@@RealCristianoPenaldo While a gunshot is loud as hell it blows out your eardrum at most, making you deaf for 3-4 weeks, but then you get your hearing back.
Same thing with explosions, permanent damage is exceedingly rare.
@@nomennisceo6495 Hahahaa, no. Hearing damage is creeping and permanent. If it hurts, it's too loud.
it may be creeping but actual damage isnt a thing that happens every time you shoot a firearm without ear plugs in. After three years in the infantry and having my earpro fall out quite often even with something as large as a M2 i still have very good hearing.
As for what was done in the movie, it was at least somewhat accurate.
I thought Baby was gonna go deaf in that scene
First movie I nearly cried from in years. Baby is set up as an innocent, cute and sweet character, when they arrested him I felt so horrible for him. Truly a wonderful movie
I love the story on how the Austin Powers mask came to be. It originally was supposed to be the Michael Myers mask, but they couldn’t get permission so Wright rewrote it with the Austin Powers mask, which Mike Myers read and thought it was funny and gave them permission to use the Austin Powers mask. Which gave birth to one of my favorite scenes which leads to my favorite chase sequence in this entire film.
During the job right after Jon Bernthal's character tells Baby that he'll eventually have to get blood on his hands with the kind of work he does, Baby wears the gloves Doc gave him earlier which are blood red on the palms
I also loved how she was coincidentally singing B-A-B-Y when she walked in the dinner and how it's like finally the time when he talks to her
"hey I just got his name"
Was an oddly adorable way to say it and made me laugh out loud for longer then I'd care to admit.

When i first saw this i was blown away by its visual style and blend of music. It was a dream to watch and has great rewatchability every time
0:58 I really think Baby is bothered by the crime tho. Like if he was just sitting there watching it with an indifferent expression then maybe you could say he was just waiting, but from his gasp and facial expressions, he does seem genuinely upset by it. And later in the movie, during the armored car heist, he lets the crew out of the car, then pulls forward just far enough so that he can't see what's happening when they attack the security guard.
Honestly, I think that part of the reason Baby is so focused on the music during heists is to drown out the things that are going on around him so he can pretend they aren't happening.
i was thinking "oh i've probably never watched an edgar wright film, ive never heard of him" then he listed 4 movies i have seen and loved
Also worth noting that in the diner scene, Bats is wearing red while Buddy is wearing black. So while Buddy sees red, Bats sees black
You can watch this movie over and over again and realize something new each.
Such a quality movie. This and Get Out are top 2 2017 movie for me

Remember. There is perfect. Then there is perfect plus. -Matt Hullum
The few details I noticed on my first watch was in the briefing/ breakdown. Baby plays with a car and it falls of the edge of the table towards Buddy... who eventually meets a similar fate, awesome foreshadowing. And in the same scene I noticed Bats’ lights on his glasses turn off perhaps referencing him going to die in this heist, or... have his lights out. This scene just resonated with me because I felt as an audience member I felt I was watching through the directors eyes. I love this movie!
7:26 only ansel could say that hes in a pink and glittery mood and still make me feel things
1:14 that's just Edgar Wright trying to keep physical comedy alive
This movie is perfection
Your analysis of all the movies you talk about is freaking superb. You must've done amazing in English class as a kid.
When Baby and Debora steal the car after the bar scene, you can hear the song 'Know How'. A line in this song is: "Ain't no Hocus Pocus, I just get you into Focus." The song playing at the foot chase scene is Focus by Hocus Pocus.
Holy, I'm so ecstatic to hear you pronounce tinnitus correctly. I'm in PA school [graduating in August] and it has become a crazy pet peeve of mine. Thank you to your wife!
one little detail not mentioned in this video that i found: near the end of the movie a car honks while music is playing and the doppler effect makes the pitch of the horn match the music
And yes! Ansel and Lily’s chemistry is incredible 💕 and they didn’t even have a chemistry read! And the tinnitus in the background is genius
14:35 Buddy in red light , Baby in blue just pointing out
Here, years later and I gotta say sometimes style is substance, and I feel like that’s something even harder to do, to make it perfectly balanced with the right amount of style that is bursting out of your mind yet still isn’t too much that it turns you off.
Some of my favorite films and games are like that, you can give me a story concept that’s so simple that a AI can come up with it, yet the style can turn that simplicity into something astonishing, and when each day we get tools that make film and game creation easier and easier, when an iPhone can shoot in 4K 60fps? When you can get realistic scenery, character and lighting just like that with game engine like UE5? You have to have certain personal style to stay in people’s heart.
So to that I say, god bless this film, I love it so much.
15:15 since baby had tinnitus this means anything that will make his ears ring will be amplified and I have it to and that’s exactly how it feels great job to Edgar for putting so much detail in this movie!
And I have to add yes, having a gun go off next to your head does make your ears ring instantly, not only that it hurts like fuggery
Love this, as always. However, I think the ending is a real moment. It is the fantasy set-up but brought to modern day and in color. The rainbow after the rain.
FloraWest I totally agree, I believe that the director made the choice to change the black and white fantasy to a beautiful and colorful reality. Gosh I love this movie and it’s mega happy ending
Plus deborah committed so quick to Buddy that she wouldn't back out after all of that. They're thick thieves from then on. Trauma bonds are real
You can actually see the rainbow in the background
my favorite line from this move was “stop quoting monsters inc, it pisses me off” ii wwwaaasss wweeeaakkk
I learnt that in a cut line, towards the end of the film, Doc actually repeats the “we’re a team” line back to Baby when he tells him to run.
Makes me wonder why Edgar cut it.
