The show hints pretty heavily that he's Satan or at least a Satan/Mephistopheles figure, always tempting ordinary people to do evil and generally adding to the quotient of chaos and evil in the world. He even says, after eating some of Lou's apple pie, "I haven't had pie this good since the garden of Eden." Then of course there's his name, Malvo, reminiscent of "malevolent" as well as the Shakespearian name Malvolio ("Evil-Willed").
Malvo is literally the perfect villain. I love him so so much (as a character obvi lol) like everything about him is so chaotic evil and I love it. I love that he’s not motivated by anything than “bc I can”
@@ksneeraj399 same basic premise and I would say the Fargo series takes heavy influence from cormac mccarthy in that they are classic depiction of seemingly normal people running up against forces of unrelenting evil. The “good” guys also often tend to be simple but effective.
Billy Bob would have won an Emmy for his performance if he’d been nominated as a supporting actor! But unfortunately, he was erroneously nominated as a lead actor just to arbitrarily even out the categories because “Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series” already had 7 nominees (5 of whom were from the Normal Heart) and “Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series” only had 5 (6 including Billy Bob)! Do the math!
One of the traits of psychopaths is that they look almost normal, but something is slightly off. It's called the Uncanny Valley effect. Almost like an alien came down and tried to blend in. This was used in "No Country for Old Men" with Anton Chigur also.
always these hobby psychologists. whats next? he s a narcist? a sociopath? a bipolar guy? You should quit always search from some bla bla just because its a thing in internet. NO. That figure is nothing as a psychopath or any other these popular wannabe psychologistic definitions.
No idea what's wrong with people that they'd put a show with as much filler as BB even in the same league as Fargo. Y'all enjoyed them cereal eating scenes that much? Really?
@@thealgerian3285 breaking bad has almost no filler dude, what are you even talking about. if you don’t like the family scenes then that’s fine but they do serve a purpose and develop the family dynamic, and they disappear as the show progresses and wat distances himself from his family. not to mention breaking bad was an actual tv show that ran for five years, while fargo is a 10 hour version of a 2 hour movie. how is that not filler, retelling a story but it’s 5x as long?
@UCww1WxTP5yi2jlhXztU--Ng i have seen the show, i agree that it’s brilliant but the same characters, themes, and general narrative were all done (almost) as effectively within a two hour film. regardless, his statement is more baseless than my own exaggeration
@@thealgerian3285 BB had only a couple of filler episodes. It ended in 5 seasons. It was a perfect show. Same as Fargo. Like the OP, I consider both Fargo and BB pretty much on a neck and neck level.
Dragons or wolves at maps from the past didnt literally mean there live wolves/dragons it was just a way of the person creating the map to tell the reader we don’t know whats there in this place. Instead of leaving it empty you add wolves/dragons. It just means potential danger since this part is not mapped.
Oh, I thought Colin Hanks was there for Billy Bob's shots but when the camera is turned on Hanks on location, BB wasn't present for that. That's why Hanks said, for the shots outside, he committed to memory what Thornton did and how he delivered the lines the day in the greenscreen studio.
Awesome thank you for uploading, just finished seasons 1&2 for the second time, literal masterpieces. Love your profile pic “this is the water this is the well, drink full and descend ! “
I just Finished watching season one. When Malvo made the 'Garden of Eden' joke i literally thought his the devil for a second. Even the timing of him leaving that retournant just the moment the cop arrived felt just too perfect to be a coincidence. The way they sent him out tho was ridiculous. They made him make a mistake that contradicts his character, that he himself would never do in those circumstances just for him to get injured so some irrelevant character deal the final blow. Great character.
Actually it makes sense, in context of the seasons message. 1. The whole point of Malvo is that he is a predator who preys on the weak, Malvo’s greatest mistake was thinking that Lester was still prey, whereas lester had become a predator thanks to lorne the irony of that was Lorne’s corruption of Lester was meant to destroy him, Lorne is shown to keep recorded conversations of the people’s whose lives he has corrupted and ruined, loving to hear their desperation and final moments He thought that he was setting lester up to be his next victim, instead Lester became a predator himself and put forward a trap... and lorne made the fatal mistake of not realizing that, leading to him being badly wounded which spelt his doom (the same way he explains the story of the be a caught in a trap that chawed tis els off, spelling its death) again you have to remember the last time Lorne saw Lester was when he was still a panicked and desperate person, he didn’t see his transformation or his craftiness up to that point. He still thought he was dealing with a loser. 2. Having Lorne killed by Gus was important to the story of him and gus going back to the encounter they had at the police precent where he told him the riddle of the shades of green Lorne was a predator, a predator that Gus had realized, and one that he had seen in the past get out/lie himself out of arrest and trouble Gus wasn’t going to let him do that again, not with how dangerous he was, and furthermore the answer to the riddle was when dealing with a predator like Malvo...you have to kill them. Malvo’s end comes from underestimating a fellow predator, and at the hands of the one of the moral centers of the first season, who wasn’t intimidated that time and knew exactly what he had to do to stop Malvo’s evil. Gus is not irrelevant, he’s the moral center of the show, molly is the cop through and through, she is the justice seeker and the thing that keeps the truth alive, but Gus is the moral center of the show, he’s the opposite to Malvo, and he represents the good and decent side of humanity, the order of society, that stands in rebuke of Malvo’s chaotic evil and dark view of humanity and nature. Which is why its guy who kills Malvo good and ordered society triumphant over chaotic indifference and evil
@@mckenzie.latham91 The message of Fargo s1 is not “good will triumph over evil”. That’s incredibly simplistic and untrue, also Fargo has consistently shown itself to have more nuance than that. Malvo kind of won. He acted like the devil, turning people into monsters using his own words and tools. And after getting caught by what was bad luck for the purpose of the story doesn’t help the idea that good always triumphs evil. I mean Malvo had probably killed (or gotten others to kill) hundreds up to that point. Either way, his last act involved doing what he loves best, turning a man who could’ve just arrested him into someone who’d put like 6 shots in the head of a defenseless wounded man. There’s tons of symbolism caked throughout everything but there’s no way the message is something to mindnumbingly simple and generic. I’d be disappointed if it was
@@liminalcriminal_ I think the theme of Malvo in particular is that he SEEMS nearly supernatural or unbeatable to “prey” humans, hence the hints that he might literally be the devil, but we see at the end he is merely an apex predator human. Terrifying and violent, yes, but not invincible. Predators ultimately need to be nearly perfect to survive since they’re engaging in risky violence constantly. Sure, they almost always win… but they have to do it every day, and if they slip up once they’re toast. Lester isn’t Malvo’s match, and Gus most certainly isn’t, but Lester becomes tricky and a bit lucky enough to get the quick drop on Malvo and wound him, and Gus becomes smart enough to sense Malvo is in the Cabin, and, having lost his innocence, waste no time killing him in cold blood. If you’re still going through life innocently, that sort of predatory DOES seem somewhat supernatural. As for good triumphing over evil, it’s never ever that simple in Cohen Bros stuff. The first season of Fargo had pretty typical Cohen Bros philosophy, especially a sort of “what if we set no country for old men in the Fargo universe” vibes. Good vs evil isn’t clear cut, and good most definitely does not always triumph. Violence and morality is quite random and chaotic. Good people get hurt for no reason all the time. And violence ultimately ends up splashing back on nearly everybody involved, it’s an u controllable chaotic fire. In Fargo, both the movie and the show, at least the bad guys all get what’s coming to them eventually, but many of the good people are killed in the process. Anyway, this is a fantastic season of TV storytelling and it is in no way weird we’re having a long comment conversation about it years later.
I always saw Gus as a good and just man. What he does in the end is a good and just thing, And he is more like his father-in-law at the end, Able to step up and ensure his family will be safe.
And you can see many scenes about walking out from different shadows before killing. Or man stand at different shadows . This is one of the theme of this season. And somehow Leister can distinguish quickly. And Leister knows answer that even FBI agent doesn't know. Leister has high iq .
Idk if you watched it by now but it is worth noting that, while S1 suffers it from the least, it's still got that Breaking Bad quirk where it includes uninterrupted mundane and uncomfortable scenes (and characters, Lester in particular) whose only purpose is stretching the tension and adding what some would call realism.
I was mortified that gus a man that shot another cop ( his soon to be wife ) ended up killing Malvo ??!! On another note malvos suit in the elevator execution scene was so unique, just like him.
They're talking like they thought of the bad haircut=scary contract killer all by themselves instead of lifting it directly from No Country For Old Men
Season 2 is great. I didn't like season 3 during my first run but on my second watch, I liked it too. Season 4 is okay. But I think it's the weakest of all.
Well, in some way. But come to think of it - no, he doesn't won at all. Cos, Gus returned home to his daughter, his beloved wife and became a public hero. And Lorne just died alone in the middle of nowhere.
We must disagree with Noah when he affirms that Malvo wins in the end. He does not. To kill the wolf is not to become the wolf, but to protect the sheep. We are all sheep and shepherd, it depends on the situation. Gus had the chance to stop evil and chose omission. Now, facing evil, he chooses to stop it for good. He does not lose a part of himself, but he becomes more of himself, he is Gus now -- majestic, exalted, as the name Augustus means. He is not grimly anymore, he is Gus.
They let you know through subtlety that the house always wins. It's what I don't much care for in shows that frame the police side as the _right_ side. Call me antisocial Only I'm aware that human relationships are not static like that and people earn trust. I mean the guy became a mailman in the end because he couldn't hang. And I tell you this much, evil is not so easily identifiable Not too many of us would know how to address it should we see it. This is because we innately desire conference and give people the benefit of the doubt. That do unto others golden rule comes down to respecting that other people get to make their own decisions Gus had never been confronted with the alternative before. It would be like arriving at a bus stop to see someone roll off the ceiling telling you that's his turf. The only real option to vocalize your confusion would be to rebuke him over the absurdity/abnormality. Even then there's still a piece of you that expects him to reason it for himself and make the adjustment You don't look to curb evil, it's not in your wheelhouse. This is why Jesus told his disciples that certain spirits do not yield beyond your ability to consult a higher authority and discipline the self. They are constantly on the lookout for lack of self control that they can inhabit At the end of the day, I'm not convinced that blue bloods make strides to influence your awareness. They'd rather you depend on them to resolve conflict and this is what Grimly ended up being chastised for. Inaction makes the force look like they don't have control. I wonder in that case whether or not their HR department knew how to field for the right stuff. You would think that if they ask you to perform duties they also circulate aptitude tests that sharpen your awareness. Why does it take a dance with the devil to test an officer's mettle? We ought to have better resources than that
i hate behind the scenes it ruins the story. As far as im concerned Judy Garland is still young and Robin Williams is a happy man. I Dont care about personal S***. They get my money and time so give me my shows and peace out. See you on the other side.
Hanks is a horrible actor. Should of not won in Season 1. Kinda gross, highly unrealistic that would happen. Didn't get that arch. But l understood the narrative of our times. Infatuation with weak men. Somehow they get the actress and beat the "manly" man. When it's wildly fantastical. But human puppets love Kung Fu.
tf are you talking about? Hanks' character Gus started out as a wimp. But then he grew out of it towards the end. It took him years to do that. How is him killing Malvo unrealistic? Malvo returning was threatening his and his family's existence. And the woman didn't "beat up" the man physically. She was just smarter than rest of her comrades. Unlike most modern shows, this show doesn't have stupid woke BS just for the sake of it.
how to tell us you have no balls (or brains) without actually saying it lol the “man’s” man commenters on the internet are hilarious you can tell they piss more feminine then the people they bitch about.

@@anothersockaccount652lol YES! That is one of the few things I picked up on while watching it the first time. Really strong image.
I’d say he’s a servant at the least of the big dude downstairs
I think he might think he is Satan but I imagine the bear trap humbled him
Malvo is literally the perfect villain. I love him so so much (as a character obvi lol) like everything about him is so chaotic evil and I love it. I love that he’s not motivated by anything than “bc I can”
I didn't know whether or not it was obvi
1:25 I’ve always loved this silhouette shot of Malvo where it almost looks like bloody angel wings are beginning to sprout from his back.

When I first saw Malvo's hairstyle I started laughing.... Quickly stopped when I saw how absolutely _chilling_ Billy Bob's portrayal was
wooow I didnt know mr Wrench actor guy was actually deaf IRL! :O
What’s amazing that one of the best scenes on the show doesn’t even have Hanks or Thornton in the same scene. Brilliant.

S1 was very brilliant, I watched it 3 times.
Us too and kept seeing tiny details we'd missed

Brilliant, timeless & Captivating movie making. Fargo is an absolute classic ❤❤
Thank god this exists. I thought I'd die without ever knowing. Dramatic but not kidding.
So cool they used areal deaf person

👍Billy Bob Genius! 🍄🔑🧩🧠
I like to think Lorne malvo was Carl Childers premature brother he buried in the yard, dug up and raised by wolves
great character and actor
I like how he has the Lester jacket on
The only time Wes Wrench and Grady Numbers are refered by names is on Molly´s whiteboard
I think I have to watch this show now.
Any time prior to watching this might have been ideal but hey, you do you!
You do, season one is a classic
Idk if you watched it by now but it is worth noting that, while S1 suffers it from the least, it's still got that Breaking Bad quirk where it includes uninterrupted mundane and uncomfortable scenes (and characters, Lester in particular) whose only purpose is stretching the tension and adding what some would call realism.
I was mortified that gus a man that shot another cop ( his soon to be wife ) ended up killing Malvo ??!!
On another note malvos suit in the elevator execution scene was so unique, just like him.
Top Telly
I had a plaid sport coat like Malvo's back in the seventies. Wore well. Added elbow patches. It worked.
There are no saints in the animal kingdom, only breakfast and dinner.
Malvo like joker
Wow ive always wondered what he meant in the scene where he states about seeing the colour green..
His hair lol
Great episodes
interesting
Always watch out for guys with odd haircuts
Malvo has an inverted pentagram next to his head in the first scene he meets Lester; on the hospital sign. Which also has the Seal of Lucifer in it.
Season 1 what episode?
They're talking like they thought of the bad haircut=scary contract killer all by themselves instead of lifting it directly from No Country For Old Men
S1 is pretty much tribute to Coen brothers filmography.
3:24 Fallout New Vegas music
Season one the natural world, two the supernatural, three the spiritual
After season 1 i gave up on the rest tbh
The rest is good and it's neat how each season ties together
Season 2 is great. I didn't like season 3 during my first run but on my second watch, I liked it too. Season 4 is okay. But I think it's the weakest of all.
Why in the actual fuck is Noah Hawley wearing a fleece sweater underneath his suit jacket?
It's Lesters coat.
Because when he wears it over the jacket people make fun of him
I like how the numbers actor is unaware that his character is infact referred to by name.
now trying making it interesting without all the rules the REAL editors have to abide by...like NO SPOILERS or BLOOD.

Hanks is a horrible actor. Should of not won in Season 1. Kinda gross, highly unrealistic that would happen. Didn't get that arch. But l understood the narrative of our times. Infatuation with weak men. Somehow they get the actress and beat the "manly" man. When it's wildly fantastical. But human puppets love Kung Fu.
*Arc* thank you UA-cam
tf are you talking about? Hanks' character Gus started out as a wimp. But then he grew out of it towards the end. It took him years to do that. How is him killing Malvo unrealistic? Malvo returning was threatening his and his family's existence.
And the woman didn't "beat up" the man physically. She was just smarter than rest of her comrades. Unlike most modern shows, this show doesn't have stupid woke BS just for the sake of it.
@@ButtersCCookie Are you completely dense?
how to tell us you have no balls (or brains) without actually saying it
lol the “man’s” man commenters on the internet are hilarious
you can tell they piss more feminine then the people they bitch about.
Malvo is stronger and smarter than any women in the story
True detective and Fargo
Just watch the first season and STOP
don't go beyond the first season
