@@Tigerman1138 oh wow... I did not know that! Thank you for sharing that info I thought, however, it was brilliant how a little tilt of his mask or the way he would turn or position his head/mask could convey his emotion. Love the movie. ❤️
@@Tigerman1138 Did he really not speak or did they just not use the audio? I can't imagine he didn't speak at all. That would have made for very unnatural performances from everyone else.
He should got An Oscar Nom for this to be fair, I don't care that he was mostly masked through out the film. His performance in this was truly mesmerizing.
Yes! Sadly oscars have become a joke, this is an iconic performance and he managed to move mases with his performance, his voice alone deserved a lot more credit.
@@aphroditebenabese450 Best Actor but not at the Oscars, he wasn't even Nominated. Yeah sure he probably won Best Actor at some small award show but that's not much.
Both are exceptional actors. Both have amazing range which speaks so much to the strength of V. Hugo Weaving has a vocal quality that is so expressive, like James Earl Jones. He can volley emotion virtually on every syllable and place weight on each and every word as it needs to be expressed. Such incredible talent. Portman has a great gift for being raw in a moment. She can usher great joy or extreme sadness and pain within the context of a scene, which carries you on that emotional journey with her. It feels authentic and not contrived, so you celebrate or suffer with her.
These two are my heroes. :) When I first saw V for Vendetta, I couldn't imagine this movie would have so much of an impact for me - it was that movie that got me interested in cinema, the one that really made me see how powerful film can be when it comes to convey an idea or inspire people. It's been a long time since it was released, but I will always hold it dear for that... and be grateful to everyone involved, especially Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman, whose performances have touched me beyond reason - and who are, still up to this day, amongst the most brilliant actors out there. Bless them, and thanks for the walk down Memory Lane, Moviefone !
This is film is THE LOVE STORY. She is an absolutely beautiful lady and her innocence is magical. He is a MAN's MAN. Their love for each other made me weep like I never have in decades. He says to her 'Nothing existed until I saw you and fell in love with you.' She says to him 'How can you be one of the most important things that has ever happened to me. We could leave here together. Please don't die.' There I go again weeping . . . happy tears!
The guy who I hated in the matrix is a charming badass in this film. Such formidable and wonderful acting! A guy who plays a terrific villain, but a charming freedom fighter in the next film? 😂😂😂 God Bless Hugo Weaving!
the first time v showed emotion was when evey left him. he cried. i thought he couldn't experience such emotions because he only knows hate and that realization made me cry so much
Just watched it for the first time and holy fucking shit why did I never watch it sooner? Then find out the Wachowskis made it and was like that makes so much fucking sense for how the action felt. The fact that I was both horrified and supportive of his acts just... God dude this movie was a trip. I was suffering in bed in pain unable to sleep and this movie entranced me. I refused to look at the cast until I finished it and to see Hugo fucking Weaving... I honestly couldn't tell. He can be so different in movies my god he's a badass. Yes I think I've become a fanboy of this movie. It helped me through a rough night on top of being insanely good.
Although criticism and Alan Moore dislike the movie I love it and I love V. Mr Weaving accent is so damn sexy (I'm Straight af) but I freaking loved it and the connection between him and Natalie is just amazing.
Such beautiful and pleasant people..... Smart, charming....I could go on forever!! This film could not have been anywhere near as great as it is without these two brilliant actors❤️
After i saw V for Vendetta when i was just a kid, i realizes just how strong a film could potentially impact our idea about something. It gives a message, a warning and everything, leaving us to have a limit which soon we realized have no boundaries
its incredibly ignorant to think that actors aren't intelligent the amount of emotional intelligence that they require infused with ego which can be often contradictory to the character and the need to be empathetic. juggling all of that while retaining their sense of self whilst being in a different character to their own and having twenty people in a room all watching you while you pretend your alone or doing all of that with other actors of which you are in awe add the pressure of their ridiculous pay checks and the fact that they work sporadically so they have a long time between jobs to build up pressure. Im not saying they dont have a great life going for them just that there not all nobs that being said there are some actors who are quite obviously not intelligent on any level. a good example of someone who is arguably a good actor who as made wise choices(got paid a percentage in royalties of a franchise rather than one pay check and ended up with 20 times the amount he would have got paid) and has all the confidence and intelligence in the performance but i find is only ego outside of that is Tom Cruz i don't think he is a very emotionally intelligent guy and i don't find him very smart either he tends to try and dominate a conversation or he is very reticent and if he doesn't like where its going he doesn't silence them with an actual argument he bullies them by talking over them or by saying their wrong and he is right.
Fun fact : After Keanu reeves and Hugo weaving played in Matrix. Keanu played a DC Vertigo's character (Constantine) in 2005. Hugo played a DC Vertigo's character (V for Vendetta) in 2005.
To think Hugo Weaving was almost cast as the voice of Rigby on Regular Show originally, but couldn't do it because of scheduling conflicts at the time 😊 😂.
What an lovey interview! Wish every interview would be respectful and understandable as this ! But I guess these two bright souls are extremely intelligent and intellectually prepared ! So I would expect this!... 9:15 he goes “ I hope you always gonna be learning in your life so” 😳! Even his blessing is “theatrical” lol 😆... never heard such a blessing ❤️
I am watching this and imagining V interviewing Evey. Just vlose your eyes and listen. Dontpay attention to normal clothes. Just imagine them in the clothes from the movie.
Why are people so wowed by people who can speak multiple languages? If you learn these languages when you are young, it is quite easy to speak 3 - 4 languages. Look at Switzerland. They are taught three languages immediately. lol. I speak 4 languages and saying hello in one language is precisely the same as it is in another. There's only so many ways I want to say "hello."
Andrew Haym switzerland is geographically positioned in a culturally diverse region, europe in itself is culturally diverse and historically, always had been. it's good practice to speak and read the languages of neighbouring countries -- particularly when they share common land borders with yours, and in the case of switzerland, this facilitates connectivity between the citizens that go to and fro between itself and the countries surrounding it -- and i suppose it similarly goes for belgium, because there are advantages to it from a range of social to economic to political perspectives and all points in between. hugo weaving posing that question to natalie portman, has a wonder in him of her who speaks an eclectic mix of languages, and having lived in australia which has english as its primary language, geographically speaking, he and other australians simply didn't need to learn french, german or italian like the swiss do -- or in belgium's case, dutch -- to foster relationships with people from those countries when english itself is a globally-reaching language. with that in mind, every country has a portion of the populace exposed to films in english to adequately or somewhat understand others who speak it. americans would have similar cultural standing only if the entirety of canada spoke their version of french or if they took greater interest with mexico and its version of spanish, and with learning it, this would have the advantage of communicating with the majority of south america. that said, the british (the english in particular) has the same stance on other languages, they don't even learn their native gaelic, welsh or scots. it probably is due to (almost) all anglophones not really needing to learn any other language simply because they don't have to, even if they had the option to learn it when they were young, and now that they're adults, they just take amazement in it to maybe take inspiration to learn a new language on their own. or they're lazy bastards, i dunno. edit: spelling, spacing, punctuation, grammar.
1:37 When, if ever, is violence justified? I think a very important question to ask and consider. 8:20 Two hours spent thinking about what another's life is like, and not just being involved in your own thing. Arguably, an exercise in empathy, of which our entire world could really use in much greater quantity. Learning, and seeing the world from another viewpoint. Great observations from both of them.
Hi #Moviefone I really appreciate the tremendous work you are doing, this is really a huge conversation between two brilliant actors and especially Hugo Weaving. Well how could the viewers send the question somehow? are you picking some random questions? I wish if you could invite Nicolas Cage and Cole Hauser, that would be great :)
Between Natalie Portman and Keira Knightley, I would choose Natalie to be my favourite because although I love Keira in Pride and Prejudice, she started getting naked in the movies lately and I find that disgusting.
Two really great actors. Natalie I've loved since Leon omg I loved that film and her in it, but idk I think actors become a bit obtuse and unlikeable as they become more self important.
Hugo acuérdate de hacerme un Retrato cómo el de la Dona bien Magestuoso con efectos de Rosas Rojas como a mi me gusta que quedé bien bonito como María Bonita.
you know Hugo is very talented because he managed to convey emotion even when his face was covered throughout the entire movie.
THE NINJACAT What is more...Hugo Weaving NEVER spoke a word on set while in mask. All his speech was added later.
@@Tigerman1138 oh wow... I did not know that! Thank you for sharing that info I thought, however, it was brilliant how a little tilt of his mask or the way he would turn or position his head/mask could convey his emotion. Love the movie. ❤️
Same thing with Jackie Earle Haley in watchmen as well...
@@Tigerman1138 Did he really not speak or did they just not use the audio? I can't imagine he didn't speak at all. That would have made for very unnatural performances from everyone else.
I agree. This is why I love rewatching V for Vendetta.
Meeting Hugo Weaving must be a geek's fantasy. Elrond, Agent Smith, Red Skull, and V. Holy Shit he's awesome.
AHHH! I didn't even think of that. Now I really want to.
Another one would be Rex the shepherd dog in the movie Babe, a little pig goes a long way.
Megatron 🤷♂️
Rex
And Desmond Doss's dad
am i the only one thought his voice was very sexy.
NO
6 years later, no you’re not😂😂♥️
Daddy Hugo 🤰🏻🤰🏻🤰🏻🙈🙈🙈
His voice is such a turn on even as straight man...
@@AlexanderL23 oh my... 😂
You can tell Natalie was slightly nervous during this face to face interview. Who wouldn't be? That's Hugo Effing Weaving. Charismatic and talented.
Soul Melody yeah, I would be in her place!
@SharrelWright out of context, you’re crazy as hell
Couldn't agree more 😅
Charismatic, talented, and hot! 🔥❤
He has amazing voice
"My eyes... my beautiful blue eyes~" XD I love this man...
Same..
He should got An Oscar Nom for this to be fair, I don't care that he was mostly masked through out the film. His performance in this was truly mesmerizing.
Yes! Sadly oscars have become a joke, this is an iconic performance and he managed to move mases with his performance, his voice alone deserved a lot more credit.
Actually,he got a best actor.
@@aphroditebenabese450 Best Actor but not at the Oscars, he wasn't even Nominated. Yeah sure he probably won Best Actor at some small award show but that's not much.
Even though she's 23 here, you can still see the awkward little girl. And it's that vulnerability that really sells her characters when she's acting.
Holy crap, 23 is my current age now!!!
She was 24 almost 25 here cuz this was in 2006

Well said, and especially true with this particular movie.
Did anyone notice that beautiful moment when he was about to kiss her hand but she kissed his cheek instead? 😍😍😍
I don't know why i aw'd so loudly.
YEAAAAAA I SCREAMEDDDD ajsjsksksks so cute 😖😍
Who wouldn’t ! A true true gentleman 👌👏👑❤️
THEYRE BOTH SO ADORABLE
my god the second hugo started talking.. that mesmerizing voice just killed me as it always has!!
Same XD
Yeaa 😆
My "god", the second Hugo started talking, his mesmerizing voice impacted me, as it always has.*
Time kills, voices does not.

Ooh!! Me too!! V for Vendetta spoke to me anyway, but it's also nudging me towards acting... Something's I've been too scared to do growing up
🥀
Watch Repo the Genetic opera
Ideas are bulletproof.
She's adorable even with the short hair!
Nothing could stop her from being adorable.
Jianju69 Maybe a sex change :)
These two sure interview each other well; very nice chemistry. :)
Hugo: "Is it justifiable? HAIL HYDRA!"
Oh god i can't stop laughing XD

you can tell they really like the other.
Ugh I love Hugo Weaving's voice
That was FUN! They both seem truly likeable, not at all full of themselves... and Hugo Weaving can imitate Donald Duck!
the first time v showed emotion was when evey left him. he cried. i thought he couldn't experience such emotions because he only knows hate and that realization made me cry so much
The sexiest thing about V? Imagining Hugo's lips moving as he delivered those speeches! Sigh %D
They both really enjoyed working together, so cute
Yeah you can definitely tell the two have chemistry, even off screen.
Just watched it for the first time and holy fucking shit why did I never watch it sooner? Then find out the Wachowskis made it and was like that makes so much fucking sense for how the action felt. The fact that I was both horrified and supportive of his acts just... God dude this movie was a trip. I was suffering in bed in pain unable to sleep and this movie entranced me.

Iconic movie, iconic cast. Well done. I think it is going to stand the test of time. THE Hugo weaving and Natalie Portman. Legends.
That is a remarkably strong beard. I'm not sure you could get the mask over something with that sort of strength.
I mean that's blast proof.
🥀
"Can you feel it, Mr. Anderson? Have you ever noticed how the color blue compliments my beautiful blue eyes?"
You're going to help us Mr Anderson whether you want to or not
Although criticism and Alan Moore dislike the movie I love it and I love V. Mr Weaving accent is so damn sexy (I'm Straight af) but I freaking loved it and the connection between him and Natalie is just amazing.
Hugo's voice is like a cat purring.. Very soothing😄😄
Never saw the movie. I heard it was amazing! And I think Hugo potrays V so well that it makes V mysteriously sexy...
Such beautiful and pleasant people..... Smart, charming....I could go on forever!! This film could not have been anywhere near as great as it is without these two brilliant actors❤️
After i saw V for Vendetta when i was just a kid, i realizes just how strong a film could potentially impact our idea about something. It gives a message, a warning and everything, leaving us to have a limit which soon we realized have no boundaries
Hugo's voice is just so silky...makes me weak!!!
natalie portman is just so fucking beautiful.
Hugo Weaving is the real face of Hugo Boss ;)
more like hugo bross :)
V For Vendetta is an excellent movie. Thank you both, Hugo and Natalie. 👏🏻
I Love V For Vendetta
Hugo and Natalie were epic 😍
Wow, Natalie Portman is one of the smartest actresses I've ever known.
That's like saying to someone that he is the most sane patient of the asylum.
Yes. It is.

I think she had a thing for him here.
Yeahh.. She looks smitten by him
He's such an amazing actor that it feels weird to see him not being menacing lmao
Hugo sounds exactly like V
U must take the ring to Mordor!!!
i want out of this virtual world Mr Anderson er i mean Optimus Prime!!!
His voice and the way he speaks gives me Ian Mckellen vibes.. as in, a really seasoned and experienced brit theater actor
hisssssssss voiiiiicceeee is just amaaazinnngggg!!!!!
Idris Abkar. Lemme know how beautiful that voice is.
These two are the rare sort of celebrities that I would actually like to meet. Good conversation I imagine.
I want to see V's speech with his face on it
No. I thought his voice was very sexy too.
Fun fact :
After Keanu reeves and Hugo weaving played in Matrix.
Keanu played a DC Vertigo's character (Constantine) in 2005.
Hugo played a DC Vertigo's character (V for Vendetta) in 2005.
1 is played Redskull & 1 is played John Wick
Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving are so great I love them both.
He was epic in matrix
You guys rule !❤ v was incredible I watched it over 10 times 😂
this is the first time I've ever heard Hugo Weaving's actual voice, and not him as Elrond or V or Smith etc.
It is quite jarring
Jeezus! She's magnificent 🔥 😍
It's a sexy overload.
Natalie: cute and pretty
Hugo: Badass
To think Hugo Weaving was almost cast as the voice of Rigby on Regular Show originally, but couldn't do it because of scheduling conflicts at the time 😊 😂.

forget about morgan freeman, i want hugo weaving to follow me around and narrate my life...
why was this interview edited like this LOL the zoom-ins are so youtuber-esque....... i love it

como los amo, quisiera verlos juntos en otra película
I love them both! 😍 Excellent actor 🌟 and actress! 🌟 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 ✨🏆🏆✨❤❤❤❤❤
Can any English person tell me if she did a good accent?
She did.
Meh
I thought she kinda sounded Australian but it was alright
Hugo Weaving on the other hand nailed his dialect.
portman always does pretty intellectual movies
The worst part of Hugo Weaving's performance of V is that he didn't use that voice at 9:36
Two very charming, intelligent and attractive people and some interesting questions.
Haha! "What's your favourite colour?"?
Thanks Natalie!
What a shame to hide such a glorious beard behind a mask.
Awesome stuff but please don't tell me 240p is the best resolution quality you can provide in this channel.
I can't stop thinking about agent smith. Such a lovely character and actor!
Remember when the creators of V for Vendetta taught Padme from Star Wars to talk in British English?
Excellent interview

Well how could the viewers send the question somehow? are you picking some random questions? I wish if you could invite Nicolas Cage and Cole Hauser, that would be great :)
I love how agent smith creeps in every now and then!
Hugo Weaving is such a great actor!!
love the accent... But but Can you still continue to talk with an accent? Like how your diction goes in V for vendetta
Hugo looks like a classy clean Trevor philips
SAVEMARTHA I would love to see him as Trevor in a movie version of GTA now!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr Annnnnnnnnnnnderson
Hugo :))))
She is smokin HOT
omg this interview couldnt have happened in these days
Good, very nice interview also seeing the two again.😊
Between Natalie Portman and Keira Knightley, I would choose Natalie to be my favourite because although I love Keira in Pride and Prejudice, she started getting naked in the movies lately and I find that disgusting.
Aaaaah Hugo
Two really great actors. Natalie I've loved since Leon omg I loved that film and her in it, but idk I think actors become a bit obtuse and unlikeable as they become more self important.
Hugo acuérdate de hacerme un Retrato cómo el de la Dona bien Magestuoso con efectos de Rosas Rojas como a mi me gusta que quedé bien bonito como María Bonita.
Partly, but mainly the awesome voice and the insane charisma. But I do love a beard :-)
Both are great in the movie from beginning to end, especially during their scenes together. Currently watching it at the moment!
They are really cute
9:35 that was scary cause he's a scary looking dude
Hugooooo ♥♥♥♥♥♥
I don't know why I was recommended this after 8 years but I'll just say this movie is what DC was supposed to be.
🖤
