#firsttimewatching #moviereaction #theothers - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
The reason Anne kept insisting that her mother had gone mad & done something horrible is because she was awake & aware when the mother kiIIed them. The kids were asleep in the same bed when the mother kiIIed Nicholas first. He didn’t wake up but Anne did so she knew what was happening. Unfortunately since she was a child she didn’t fully realize that the mother succeeded & they were dead.
Ahhh makes sense!
And when Anne starts with that heavybreathing, she is trying to provoke her mother, because that was what happened when Grace was killing them with the pillow.
@@jose9593Its just something kids do.
A ghost story from the ghost’s perspective. Brilliant movie.
My understanding is that neither the mum nor kids knew they were dead, but the rest, including the dad, did. So the dad was horrified to come home and find his wife and kids in the same state he was in, and when Anne relayed the story of what she thought was a terrifying but non-fatal attack, he knew what had happened.
Also, in that moment when Mrs. Mills was introduced to Grace's husband, you could see her realize that it meant he was killed in the war and, for a moment, it shakes her.
@@erinhaury5773 yes, love that moment!
I have actually never liked the part with the dad. His acting is weird in the wrong way. I feel like he does not fit in. In the end when the moment comes when you realize everything else, you still find the part with the dad is unclear. Is he dead? Does he know it? And does he know that his family is dead? Mrs Mills comments on this.
It ruins the aha moment by the end of the movie. I suppose the character is made vague to fit in the plot and for the audience to think he suffers from PTSD. He has to be that way to not ruin the twist. I think the relationship drama between him and Grace is supposed to make the audience sympathize more with her, but I find him to be an intruder in the world that by that time has been built. I think both the acting and how he is written does not have the same quality as the rest of the cast and film. It is like he is and intruder, not from another dimension, but from another film. A film that is more vague and has an open ending, which The Others does not have.
I think the movie would have been better without him. I have not even thought about what this youtuber said about Grace killing her children without even knowing her husband was dead.
@@miramataija1628 I love that part. I don't think it's ambiguous either. He does realize he's dead, and that his family is as well, but he chooses to move on rather than stay bound there.
@@miramataija1628 Of course dad knew. Have we watched the same movie? He asked his wife What happen That day??
In the late 1800’s & early 1900’s photography was very expensive so most people simply couldn’t afford them. Taking photos of recently deceased loved ones was popular so the family members would have a remembrance. Often the deceased were posed & open eyes were painted on after the photo was developed to make the subject appear alive. Sometimes the entire family would gather around the deceased for a family portrait. Wooden frames & stands were used to prop the dead up in chairs or to make them stand up. Children were often posed with their toys to make it look like they fell asleep while playing. This pictures are called Memento Mori photos.
Incredibly morbid, as we know it today. I get the times and mindsets were clearly different then. In the same way mobs could gather and watch someone being lynched or burned, barely 50 years ago. The dark extremities of the human experience frightens me.
One correction, the bodies weren't usually posed to look alive with eyes painted etc. A body is very heavy and the common wooden stands were used in early photography to be small and thin and not as noticeable, for living people, to help keep the pose for a relatively long time. The time a normal photograph took was reduced very quickly though, so those stands disappeared as well. The memento mori pictures were most often just a body, clearly shown as a body, lying down or leaning in a chair.
Interestingly, in two different scenes, each of the children is ordered to "STOP BREATHING." So many creepy little tidbits hinting at the final reveal. :)
Along with this, Grace has migraines throughout the movie because she shot herself in the head.
One of the most shocking twist endings in horror film history! I watched this on HBO a year after it was released in theaters and it made my jaw drop!
I love the Ashleigh/OGB connection. You two are both so awesome.
That feeling when one reactor you watch knows another reactor you watch.
I thought the same thing. "Ooooh! Cool, they know each other. I Love that for them! :)
Great reactions from the both of them as usual. @@HuntingViolets
It's the Reactor's Shared Universe!
@@HuntingViolets The Extended Reactor Cinematic Universe.
@@dneill8493 It's happening more and more too.
The first shot of Kidman is her in bed screaming. This is her moment as a ghost thinking that she has just killed her children, as she describes at the end of the film.
When Kidman first thinks there are intruders in the house, she goes and gets the shotgun. When she first picks it up she stops for a moment. This is her remembering that she has used the shotgun before but can't remember it - when she used it on herself when she died.
Such a great film to watch on a rewatch.
an that's the cause of their migraines
@@sagemenn Yeah, she's a ghost so why is she having migraines? It's her guilt over what she did to herself and her kids. Good catch.
The twist is done so well and is believable in the film. The clues are there for us, but we only see them from the ghosts’ perspective.
The ghosts are being haunted by the living and, unwittingly, haunting the living.
"Sometimes the world of the living gets mixed up with the world of the dead."
Fun Fact: To get the kids worked up, director Alejandro Amenábar would play scary music when they weren't expecting it.
Medical Fact: The disease the children have is an actual disease known as Xeroderma Pigmentosum, which is basically an extreme sensitivity to sunlight. It is very rare with roughly a thousand people in the world who have it.
Global Collaboration Fact: The Others (2001) comes from a peculiar and unique cross-section of production cultures. It stars an Australian woman playing an Englishwoman. It was written and directed by a Spaniard, backed by Americans, set in Jersey but filmed in Spain.
Historical Fact: In a pivotal scene, Grace (Nicole Kidman) finds a photograph album containing pictures of people she believed to be sleeping. Mrs. Mills (Fionnula Flanagan) informs her they're all deceased, and that people photographed the deceased in the previous (19th) century. In reality, people did photograph their deceased loved ones during the late 19th century. Most were photographed lying down, as if in a deep sleep; others would be propped up in chairs, posed with favorite objects such as children with favorite playthings; adults with books or newspapers. The reason many families did so was because that would be the only photograph they would have of the family member(s) if they didn't, as photography was a rarity in the 19th Century.
And photographers didn't snap instant photos; it took a long time to set up on a tripod. The camera and subjects had to remain very still for a long time to get enough light through the shutter of early cameras to expose the film, so it often was only done on rare occasions...such as _death..._ 👻
The servants disappeared and THEN Grace lost it and smothered the children. Anne says they left "and then it happened."
We can see that Grace is a bit... difficult... to deal with. She's a control freak, because she HAS to be to keep the children safe, but it's also a suffocating existence, and then without her husband, and once the servants abandoned her, she was totally isolated with no forseeable escape.
Awkward Ashleigh “tell ‘em Beans sent ya” Burton approved? I love this movie
I love it when the movie leaves holes to create questions in us. Then at the reveal every question is answered at once. It’s so satisfying.
I love that you and Ashleigh know each other. Can we hope to see a collab on the future?
- Grace's scream right at the beginning is not an ordinary nightmare. It's the realisation of what she has done to her children and herself.
- Nicole Kidman wanted to quit during rehearsals, as playing Grace gave her nightmares. "At one point I didn't want to make the film because I couldn't even go there emotionally."
- When the wandering Charles arrives home escorted by Grace, he meets Mrs. Mills, later revealed to be another person among the dead. When he approaches Grace in the fog and as he enters the room to greet his children, Charles' footsteps produce a sound not unlike the clanking of chains - which Anne had previously mentioned is a tell-tale trait of ghosts.
- In the scene where Grace is loading the shotgun for the first time, she can be seen pausing in a recollective moment after she slams the breach shut. This is most likely due to her faint realization of deja vu, most likely alluding to her suicide by using the same gun
Yes, you said that the servants were ghosts at some point! I love this movie, it is so underrated. Amazing performance by Nicole Kidman and Fionnula Flanagan (Mrs. Mills). This story got me at the edge of my seat, and I never saw the plot twist coming!
And said the children were ghosts before we meet them.
Wow, you called it in the first minute! 😂 I saw this in the theater and couldn’t sleep that night! So well done and haunting.
I loved how the husband has no reflection in the mirror, people who spotted that guessed the twist!
AHHHH I must’ve missed that! I kept looking in the background for something 😩
He is in the reflection. But it's "blink and you'll miss it moment" The mirror shows Grace's side of the bed. But i don't blame you, because I have thought the same for years. It was done cleverly on purpose, so we could be missled.
That's not true. He is reflected.
He's the same as Grace and the kids so it wouldn't make any sense for him not to have a reflection.
5:57 Beware the nanny who arrives unexpectedly: _The Omen_ (1976), _The Hand That Rocks the Cradle_ (1992), _The Sound of Music_ (1965), _Mrs. Doubtfire_ (1993), _Mary Poppins_ (1964)… 😱
Especially those last two!! 😅
In the scene with the photo album, Mrs. Mills says something to the effect of, extreme grief over the death of a loved one can make one do things. An allusion to what Grace did to her children.
I think she either found out or subconsciously felt that her husband had died and that's what pushed her over the edge. The timing of him showing up so soon after is so convenient.
No, I don't think the Victorians photographed the dead to keep their souls living. They did it because that would often be the only image they could preserve of a loved one.
I can’t do horror- but seriously loved this movie. So we’ll done it’s thrilling but not very horrific. Except the trauma of the discovery at the end.
This movie has scared me since I was a kid 🤣 even after knowing he twist it still freaks me out.
A neat detail is that when Anne tells Victor to touch Nicholas’s cheek you can see the sleeve of the pyjamas is loose and Anne’s is tight so it wasn’t Anne who touched his cheek
This is my all time favorite movie ❤
So happy you enjoyed it!!
You absolutely said something about the servants being dead AND you started to say the mother and children too. But you trailed off.
"She's [Lydia] older than she looks"
The atmosphere and sound design in this movie is incredible
My theory about the dad is that he died desperately wanting to see his family again, so wished himself home. He expected to say goodbye to a living spouse & kids...but they're like him! Then Anne tells him what happened!
The allergy to light is real. (But ghosts won't suffer, since their flesh is in the grave,)
Alejandro Amenabar's "The Others" is a work of genius. Truly one of the most brilliant ghost stories ever filmed. Every aspect is virtually perfect. I have rarely seen a screenplay whose threads come together so seamlessly and with such incredible revelatory power. The performances are uniformly excellent, but both Nicole Kidman And Fionnula Flanagan are simply stunning. Two of the finest performances I've ever seen in any film.
A ghost story from the perspective of the ghosts. I love this film. I highly recommend The Changeling from 1980 with George C Scott. It's one of the best of it's genre. AND it's public domain so it's free on TH-cam.😁😁😁 Thanks for a great reaction. Have a safe and wonderful weekend.
Love this movie, such a great twist ending, im so bad at guessing these types of plot twists, watching it the 2nd time makes it great too to see it from the ghosts point of view knowing the truth
You chose a very PHENOMENAL movie. the Others is priceless suspense/mystery and unforgettable writing, directing and acting ended off with superb cinematography.
34:24 the line delivery + building of the music makes this scene very powerful, almost makes one have an iota of sympathy for her
Hi. If you liked this, you might also like The Village.
Watch population 436
The Village was hardly a shocking twist. I can't explain why it was blatantly obvious (to me, anyway) without spoiling it for others but let's just say... None of it came across, looked or sounded even remotely honest or real (again, to me).
@@VelkanAngelsI never seen it but I heard what the plot twist was
I love your reaction! You had the basic premise but the way it unfolds you’re never quite sure what is going on. But yes you did say the servant characters were probably dead .
The daughter saying her mother is mad can be taken a few ways but yeah it’s literally the case . Grace is a cold one and no one does the ice queen quite like Kidman . So she could always seem mad to the children.
The big twists you may not expect what Grace did and her fate along with the intruders is well done.
YES!!! This is an Easter present to me, one of my favourite ghost stories ever - This and The Sixth Sense. So happy! ^_^
I love the surprise endings of this movie, The Sixth Sense and Witness for the Prosecution. Now you can watch Awkward (i would substitute Awesome) Ashleigh's reaction to this movie.
All three I've now reacted to! Truly great movies.
One of the best ghost stories of all time! I love this movie. Well done!
Did the servants live in the house the whole time since they died, and Grace and the children started to see them when they themselves died?
Ok, had to comment again now I watched it... haha isn't it incredible! Your confused face throughout was the exact same one I had the first time I watched it too 🤣
Such a phenomenal film, seeing the ghosts from the other side of the veil "haunted" by the living and afraid, not of the dark, but of the light ✨️🕯
No Sixth Sense before this movie = best twist ever conceived in cinema history.
Great movie, great acting, those kid’s acting was fabulous , thanks
We watched this on TV for the first time, and we had our grandma's dog living with us at the time. That poor dog ended up hiding behind the couch, shaking for most of the movie. We think she was scared of the music. 🙈
11:31 if you watch closely, it's not anne's sleeve. you can compare it with 11:38 it's a different pajamas. anne doesnt wear that
A haunted house story told from the perspective of the ghosts. Just marvelous
Ooooh! This is good! You might like to do Hide and Seek with Robert De Niro and Dakota Fanning, Sammy. ❤️
Loved your reaction. I love this movie and can't believe it came out 23 years ago 😮
I knew you'd like this!!! Really want to see your reaction to Muriel's Wedding! For Pride Month, I think you'd really enjoy The Children's Hour and Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
The twist was UNREAL.
Great job! I loved the performances in this movie. The kids were so impressive. Everyone was.
22:47 “Do I have to get the pillow again?”
This is a wonderful example of ORIGINAL thinking. The concept (when this came out) was fresh and fun. It is also all the proof you need to dispute Hollywood's claims that people don't want ORIGINAL properties, but the success and longevity of this film shows that Hollywood is lying.
I just recently found both you and Ashleigh! You guys are both really fun. 😊❤
Thanks so much! She's a good egg
i remeber watching this when it came out, still as good today as it was then
Yay, I'm so glad you're watching this! I love the others! And nobody ever reacts to it 😩😂
Can't wait to watch ❤
Kathateshorror just reacted yesterday 👍
@@lynnc5252 That was a good reaction too.
I think mostly they took photographs of the dead because photography was expensive and they didn't have a photograph of their loved one. Once they were lost, they desperately put together the money to get one last photograph. Often, there would be stands involved and attempts to make the subject(s) appear still alive, but there are also photos like those in the movie, where the subjects are clearly dead.
The servants couldn’t hear the piano because she made them sleep in the attic/shed even though she has enough spare rooms for a “junk room”
Fair! But I figured they may still hear it since it's an instrument that's echoing, that's all 😄
Servants don't stay in the spare room, my guy. Spare room is for company.
The real question is: Why was the father playing the piano in the middle of the night?
@@zammmerjammerI forget sometimes that this was set in the past.
One of my all-time favorites; perfect in every way! I always enjoy watching reactions to this one.
I don't like horror movies either but this was one of those w/ a good story, good acting. I was suspicious about the housekeepers when I first saw it but the rest of it completely surprised me. Love Nicole Kidman. Enjoyed your reaction.
This is definitely one of my all time favorite films. It is done incredibly well and I've watched it at least 50 times. I am definitely enjoying reading all these tid bits from other viewers about clues that I missed while watching the movie. One of the things that always made me feel uneasy was when Grace and her husband are in their bedroom and she opens a closet door that has a mirror on it. When she opens the door, the mirror points at the bed and we see no reflection from Charles. I always wondered if this was done intentionally or if it was just a coincidence 🤔
Sam your reaction to THE TWIST was awesome. I almost shot cherry Coke out my nose. LOL.
A great supernatural thriller in the vein of Hitchcock. Saw it when it came out it and I remember how everyone had the same reaction you did.
Thanks again for all your hard work.
I’ve watched it in 2001. It still is my favorite movie.
23:02 “Walking around like regular people. They don't see each other. They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're dead.” Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. 🤦♂️
I love that movie
You can see that it's Victor's pj shirt when he touches Nicholas in the bed , in the scene where Anne is closing the bedroom curtains and Victor is opening them.
OGB! Saw the thumbnail for this video and couldn’t wait to get to the reveal!
This one of the most brilliant movies ever made😊
Fantastic movie and reaction!! Another amazing, psychological thriller is Stir of Echoes with Kevin Bacon!! Movie is a phenomenal trip!💜
There's a newly released Criterion collection of this movie. There's a 4k version that also comes with a Blu-ray with a bunch of new bonus features. There's also a standalone Blu-ray version.
Stunning performances from Nicole Kidman and Fionnula Flanagan in this one. If anyone is interested, The Legend of Lizzie Borden (1975) is free on YT and Flanagan plays the Bordens' maid, Bridget Sullivan! Worth checking out, I adore Fionnula Flanagan. Also, tbh, I think Kidman deserved the Oscar for this (or for playing Suzanne in To Die For) more than she did for playing Virginia Woolf in The Hours; to me at least, this is another example of horror not being recognized, but I guess just add it to the pile with Toni Collette in Hereditary and Florence Pugh in Midsommar and Essie Davis in The Babadook, etc. etc. ad infinitum lol
I love a good twist and this movie has one of the best twist ending. Another great twist ending you should check out is Frailty.
I’m SO happy you saw this one! Have you ever watched Primal Fear? You’d love it, it’s not a horror movie 🙌🏻😅
So fun when the twist gets revealed! Love how this movie tells the story from the point of view of the ghosts ❤ Another great reaction!
You did say at the beginning that you thought the servants were dead or the children were dead. But not the family. Then you got distracted like we all did. The servants that showed up weren't the ones who left recently -- I think recent servants would have left after the mother killed herself and the kids, and the dad wasn't there, so the house got closed up until some people bought it and this scenario played out in much the same way. The servants wanted to help her accept that she was dead and killed the kids, but if they just said it, she wouldn't have believed it.
I like the idea that the movie/tv reactor community are mates or at least some of them are and turn up at the end of year reactor party.
If you like unique mysteries with quite a twist, I highly recommend Oldboy (2003), the original in Korean, NOT the Spike Lee version. I guarantee you won't be disappointed and it will make for a great reaction...just checkout the thumbnails of others who have reacted to it...says it all.
Ooo yes I've heard good things about that film!
Everyone talks about what a great twist “The Sixth Sense” has (which I always thought was kind of clunky and forced), but I think this movie has the best twist ending of any movie I’ve ever seen…and somehow it unfortunately flew under the radar.
It only flew under the radar in the US. It was a huge success in Europe.
This movie ranked at #83 in the 100 scariest movie moments on Bravo cool reaction as always Sam, you & Ashleigh should do an collab down the road, you take care and have a nice day sweetie 🥰❤️
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
The husband is played by Christopher Eccleston, who played the Doctor when _Doctor Who_ was revived in 2005. (You might enjoy reacting to that show.)
He was my favorite Doctor. ❤
@@erinhaury5773 Mine too. Fantastic.
What a twist!! Another great reaction. Also luv the shirt
35:51 We LOVE a good twist 👏🏾🍿🎬
A great movie, keeps you on edge all the way thru. And such an awesome twist with the final reveal.
Also fun to hear that you are friends with Awkward Ashley, I watch her reactions as well.
Grace drops hints about what sent her mad all throughout. She feels her husband has abandoned her in a large, isolated house where she has to manage alone with two kids in perpetual darkness.
4:12 Boom. Mic drop from Sam!
Whenever I watch these movies, I'm glad I live in a small apartment and not in a big mansion.
Loved this twist 🎉great movie 🎥 ❤
I love when worlds collide, & I love that you love Ashleigh ❤ great reaction!
Such a great movie!
My first time I watched this, I thought the servants were alive until they showed the photo. I knew the family was dead when the husband showed up in the fog. I thought the gravestones were of the family.
There is a line early in the movie that if you take it at face value, then you know everyone you are seeing is dead and the ones you don’t see are alive and that is the reference to showing the house. I had an expectation bias when they said this line and just thought it was poor writing and in a way it was because it literally gives away the twist really early.
The two lines I would delete from this movie if I made it would be about the showing of the house and the sometimes I bleed. I think they give away to much information and leaving those two lines out changes nothing.
You should watch or react to the descent after this. That's a terrific Australian made cave horror from 2005. To me it's as spooky 😂
I think you accidentally called it right at the beginning! Great reaction (just watched Ashleigh before you). Even better t-shirt :)
4:13 - OMG! Okay Sam, you can just turn it off now. 🤣
Another movie coming soon to shudder is Late Night With The Devil. It has a few sort of jump scares but mostly just tense moments that you should also react to it for the channel.
I don’t really remember this movie and I just found you but I’m wondering if you ever saw the Sixth Sense? Great reaction btw
Edit: I found the Sixth Sense reaction video. I’m going to watch it now
Glad you liked this one! Happy Easter from Ottawa ❤🇨🇦🤓 Now Top Secret from 1984 please xo
Well written screenplay. To me Nicole K. best.
Wasn't this one of the first "they were dead the whole time" movies?
This is one of the few post millennial “ghost” movies Ive actually liked, I just don’t seem to care for the rest. The REAL oldies are the goodies for me.
You kept saying that this could turn so many ways. I'm betting that was one turn you were not expecting.
I often have dreams where dead people are alive and I'm none the wiser. I'd imagine being a ghost is even more "foggy". ❤️
Also might want to check out Mr Brooks. The only time I know of Kevin Costner as the villain.......good stuff
