Приєднався 8 гру 2016
In this UA-cam channel you can watch the independent full length documentary - IN PRAISE OF ACTION - about stunt people in the film industry.
It’s pretty crazy how little recognition stunt people have received in Hollywood over the years compared to their peers in the filmmaking industry. For any filmmaker trying to choreograph and safely plan stunts of their own, it becomes quickly apparent just how much skill goes into the craft - especially at the highest blockbuster levels.

Thanks for an excellent post ❤Dobie Wan Kanobie ❤ revisited June 11. 2024❤❤❤
Movies would be useless without stunts.
Stunts is a job that you know you can die or become disabled. What kind of awards you want? You only do it because you wanted to be in Hollywood (Jeff said it at 10:44 ). I can live without films that require stunt people. You want recognition? How about the factory that makes the wires? Without them you couldn't do your job successfully. See how stupid it sounds?
I wonder if Tome Cruise ever went to the Taurus awards.
I know other people have said this here, but it's ridiculous that stunt-people are so devalued and can't win any Oscars. I don't see anyone else in Hollywood risking their lives for a production. What the actual fuck?
So that's where the idea for The Fall Guy came from. 😳 Just one thing I noticed out of place in this video. In the section at around the 18:00 mark. Michael Lush was not a professional stuntman. He was an ordinary member of the public who went onto a TV show to do a bungee jump from a crane. Had it been a professional stunt double doing a professional shoot, it wouldn't have garnered the attention it did on TV and in the press.
Simply a great Documentary... Thanks for putting on UA-cam.☯️💟👍
Where the content 😀. This was great
# Much Respects to the STUNT PEOPLE and Everyone involved. 11/7/2021 ...
Movie backbones
couldnt find anything interesting on disney plus. found this instead, and way more interesting.
that's a huge compliment !
Respect
I liked that Yakima Canutt subtly flipped the Academy the middle finger in his honorary Oscar speech (37 min).
These people risk there lives to give US the thrills at the movies!! When i was a young man i was blown away what i was seeing in the movies! I wanted to be stunt guy! I did some stunts by my self and i loved it!! As one stunt guy said " i did not talk just listen..just listen..to the other stunt people....to learn. " and oscar for stunt people would be the next cat in at the oscars...
I HAVE ALWAYS HAD THE GREATEST RESPECT FOR THIS PEOPLE SINCE I FIRST SAW MOVIES!! WITHOUT THEM IT WOULD NOT BEE GREAT MOVIES!! MARTIN GRACE, YAKIMA CANUTT,DAR ROBINSON, BENNIE DOBBINS,TERRY LEONARD ETC LOVE THEM ALL!
I used to dO stunts in movie's and my buddy's are right unfortunately it is like this in many industries men didn't land on the moon by them self's but they get 99% of the recognition.✌🇬🇧👍keanu is one of the most down to earth actor's and as always given thanks to everyone who worked in the movie and even give them money out of is own contact what a great man he is keanu you have my respect for life buddy 👍
Thanks for the documentary but it's a lot of moaning for an hour.
It’s about time stunt performers got an Oscar category
holy didn't realize they didn't already! ridiculous!
Can anyone please tell me whether this is appropriate for a 10 year old? :) He's really interested in Action Films and how they are made. I'd like him to learn about stunt men...
Hello, Veronika, yes, you can watch this documentary together with your kid 😊
@@inpraiseofaction8349 thanks!
I've always wondered if they do stunts for video game motion capture?
Yes, they do 😊
On the topic of "awards for stunts": Competing for the best acting performance, script, direction, etc. = Sure, why not. Competing for the most dangerous stunt = That sounds a lot like competing for the best Darwin Award. I'd reconsider that notion.
I was watching something about what happened to Olivia Jackson and somehow I stumbled upon this video... I truly cannot believe how neglected and how ignored the amazing and incomparable stuntmen and women have been throughout Hollywood history. To be honest, I never even thought about it. You all deserve to be rewarded at every single award show, you deserve huge paychecks, and finally you deserve the admiration and respect from your peers and the audience for your skills and the risks you take for our entertainment. You risk your lives on a daily basis for us. Thank you for your enormous contribution. How we have taken you for granted. Never again!!!
Without stunt people there wouldn't be action movies and what's happening with the Oscars is unfair!!!!!
10 unlike are from oscars, bafta , goya, etc...

Cool documentary I really enjoyed it
Thank you! An awesome production. May you all get the recognition you deserve!
Thanks mate 👍 everyone should be recognised for what they do have a great positive life mate 👍 ✌🇬🇧👍
I think stunt performers absolutely deserve recognition but this documentary is actually pretty boring for being about stunts
Praise to stunt people!
thanks for making movies even more entertaining peace #greggace

hoi
na
amazing work so many unsung heroes in our industry. looking forward to your next project :)
what about a stunt-people strike - if writers can to it...
love this ❤️
Cool documentary! You should try and make sure though that you are filming at 25 frames or 50 frames per second. In most of the interviews I think you were probably at 12.9 frames or something? Thats why you have the strange motion blur where people are using their hands to express themselves.
To the filmmakers, thank you for making and sharing this documentary, personally I have always treated and respected stunt performers as actors.
Such a great film! Thank you!! The "no space for a new category" excuse is obviously bullshit... the Academy added (and subsequently retracted, thank god) the 'popular film' film category just last year 🙄These amazing stunt people should get the credit they deserve.
BIG RESPECT to all stunt people around the world...!!!
I'm glad I know more about Stunt people. 👍👍👍👍👍
I lose respect for any actor that does not acknowledge his stunt person. The same for any director who does not acknowledge his stunt crew.
A fantastic documentary that provides a lot more insight into the work that the stunt people do.
Awesomeness! enjoy everything all! play safe! Living the dream!
Good ol' Keanu Reeves. Thank you stuntpeople, without you guys Hollywood is just a place ;)
A2i8 !!! ; )
Įspūdingai !!!
zipfm anyone?
Fantastic documentary! Thank you all!
Absolutely amazing documentary! Loved the balance of the excitement and dangers of the job. I really want to get into stunts but I'm (already?) 24 and have no martial arts background whatsover.. just dancing and weight training and I feel like I'm already behind on the people my age that are already in stunts you know?
Get that out of your head (your age I mean)! A friend of mine got into stunts at the age of 30, and she's kicking some butt! Just take some classes and learn how the body moves and get good at manipulating it! Train and know your body. Good luck! :)
Give credit where it is due, any production is about teamwork
