Great cast and acting throughout. The fear and impending doom was so palpable. Need to make a mention of Toby Kebbels (Anthony) performance which was excellent and got a little bit overshadowed by Paddy's.
Oh, PLEASE react to that. Meadows's 2nd best film, which was also his debut (if you don't count Small Time, which is pretty much a glorified short film).
@@chrissiereacts He is great in Romeo Brass. Well worth a watch, not as bleak as some of Meadows' other work and in places very funny. But still poignant.
He disarmed Sonny instantly with that. Complete intimidation fail. Was amusing seeing Sonny's character try to regain the upper hand and failing throughout the confrontation.
The only way to beat the devil's work is to become the bigger devil, either that or show it, love, and kindness, and hopefully, it will change its ways
I remember picking this as a lads movie night completely at random. We all sat in silence for about 5 mins as the credits scrolled. Then my mate said, "Well, you're not f** picking the video next week!" Next week my mate randomly selected "Old Boy". 🤣🤣
The fact Richard admits Anthony was an embarrassment shows that it is not just an all out revenge attack but also guilt for failing to stay and look after his little defenceless brother. Truly horrible but truly a master piece of a film
When Richard and Anthony (well, the memory of Anthony) talk about Richard coming to the school the dialogue is very revealing. Everyone held Richard's hand, but Anthony didn't. He 'didn't have to'. Richard was embarassed by Anthony and told him that he didn't have to, knowing that his borther was simple enough to accept this and that it would save him from having to publically take ownership of the fact that he's related to this 'spastic'. He ultimately considers himself to also be a monster, except that he chose to distance himself from Anthony instead of tormenting him. He doesn't just revenge against the small-town 'gangsters', but also his past self, who failed to be a big brother.
The first time I saw the "I didn't" scene I wept... Alongside the "one shot" Deer Hunter scene with Walken and Deniro and the Dennis Hoper / Christopher Walken "Eggplant" scene in True Romance this is truly a piece of cinematography platinum... Score by Gavin Clark
Yes, he hates himself for not outwardly loving his brother - and it adds a great layer to the film as he seeks to redeem himself for his own sense of guilt..
Paddy Considine deserves an Oscar Shane Meadows deserves an Oscar And to be recognised in the world of acting and directing And to be honest all the actors and teams in all their films are Great
"God will forgive them, he'll forgive them and allow them into heaven. I cant live with that" I think about that a lot for some reason. Such a raw way to start a movie.
People talk about Karma and hippy dippy bullshit all the time. Truth is it doesn't exist. Evil people are the happiest amongst anyone I know. So yeah I get the statement, there are some things which are unforgivable, and should absolutely be avenged.
Paddy Considine is amazing in this and a Room for Romeo Brass. Shane Meadows and Paddy wrote this about various real life experiences where people in their area got away with bullying and abusing vulnerable people.
Quite simply one of the greatest British films ever made to me. Absolute masterpiece. I call it a horror film personally, it’s got that sense of building dread that pushes you further and further out of your comfort zone that makes it feel like a horror.
Absolutely agree! Northern gritty suspenseful grim violent love revenge story! Paddy is of course amazing in this role but also the supporting cast are excellent! Neil Bell, he plays the character Soz who gets 'shut off' He along with all the cast are incredible.
Film is incredible, doesn’t even matter if you’ve seen it before and you know the twist, it still gets you and makes you emotional every time. The last scene with Paddy is outstanding, the acting is second to none, you really believe him
One of my favourite films. A great mix of realism, documentary style filming, humour, violence, grit and character dimension. I think it was Toby's first film and what a performance from him.
A beautiful movie. The reveal that Anthony is dead hit me so hard the first time I watched it. I love how the movie is very dark but also funny and extremely moving.
wow...... i've watched this flick about 10 times and my mind has always read that as ''chayne smoking'' . and i wondered why the f**K would he have written that. thanks for putting me straight
@@stuarthouse-w6o lol first time I saw the film 20 years ago I read it the same way as you. When you think about the meaning it’s a chilling way for Richard to tell the 3 of them that they’re all going to be dead very soon. Clever script.
@@beardedloon77 Cheyne Stokes is the pattern of breathing rather than the noise. I know what you’re referring to when you say death rattle but that’s not Cheyne Stokes. Both are however common signs that a person is nearing the end as the brain and body are shutting down.
Kill list is one of the very few movies that has stayed with me for almost a decade after watching it, Masterpiece in cult wicker man type of horror, Neil maskells latest movie "Bull" which was on Netflix quite recently is good and has similar vibes to dead man's shoes
From a commentary channel to a reaction channel: I really enjoyed watching your reaction to one of my favourite films. Dead Mans Shoes is no-frills and no punches pulled, and it's arguably one of the best British films of the past 25 years. Watching what Anthony went through, and the carnage that Richard created, isn't the most pleasant experience. I've never thought of it as a film made to be enjoyed, but it's definitely a film to be admired for the script, the photography and the incredible cast with nary a weak link. Enjoyed the half hour I spent with you. Going to check out some of your other stuff now. Excellent work on this one. D. 🙏
Just a masterpiece in movie making in my opinion ,raw,real and human, nothing flashy just storytelling and fine acting ,i was one of many comments to recommend this film,thankyou for reacting to it 👌
Something that always 'gets' me in this movie, is the hidden journey that Richard takes in his relationship with his brother. It's _also_ part of the twist. At the start we see Richard & Anthony engaged in simple reminiscences, where we learn how much Anthony loved and was proud of his big brother. OK - Anthony's a lovely kid - we get it. However, at the end we learn 1) that Richard hated him. He hated his 'spastic brother' who was a 'fur-king embarrassment to me' and more importantly, 2) that Anthony _died_ quite a while before. What?? Suddenly the penny drops. All those cozy reminiscences between R & A, were actually Richard coming to love his (deceased) disabled brother. He realises what a lovely kid he was, and how much Anthony adored him. Richard gives away a twinge of shame during the 'When you came to my school' reminiscence. Maybe Anthony's school mates were ALL disabled. They marveled at Richard who was brilliant at running and football, and they all held his hand - which Richard obviously didn't mind, and probably enjoyed - the adulation. However, Anthony _didn't_ hold Richard's hand. Why not? My guess is that at that time, Richard viewed Anthony as a 'fur-king embarrassment'. There was a slight awkwardness during the reminiscence when that fact was remembered. Anyway, on his journey, Richard learns to love Anthony, and exclaims that right at the end, in the cupboard where Anthony hanged himself. Richard proclaimed himself a monster, because HE didn't stop Anthony being bullied. Richard washed his hands, joined the Army and effed off away, leaving Anthony vulnerable to those despicable pigs. I think that's why Richard couldn't kill that last guy, because he'd done nothing worse than Richard - just stood to one side and let it happen. A tremendous story from Paddy Considine. An incredibly moving horror story. How does that even work?
Thank you for this comment Ian I admittedly do miss small details like that a lot in film and I always wondered about that bit where he said he was an embarrassment and why he never held his hand. This is a fantastic insight which shows in even more detail how incredible this film is.
If no'one's recommended them yet, you should watch This is England 86, 88 and 90. They're a continuation of the film set a few years later. Love ya stuff 😊
These early Shane Meadows films were so raw and authentic and so evocative of emotion and tension and atmosphere, they are both classic films that will stand the test of time. The foreboding medieval music goes so well with many scenes in Dead Mans Shies.
Hi, just found you, Chrissie. This is one of those films that stayed with me for a helluva long time. I laughed, sobbed, yipped and screamed! It's a masterclass in acting by all involved, especially Paddy, Toby and (funnily enough) Gary. I've watched it 4 times over the years, and have been meaning to watch it again recently, I think tonight. Thank you for your very real reaction to a very special and criminally underrated film.
In case no one else mentions it, Toby Kebbell who plays Anthony doesn’t even have learning difficulties, but I think he plays the part so well and so respectfully it’s a fantastic performance.
I love revenge movies, but this one was pretty tough to watch. Chrissie, thanks for getting yourself in the best possible "head space" first before doing this - it is much appreciated. 🙂
An exerpt from an article about the film: The actor then noted that the idea for Dead Man’s Shoes came from a time when he and Meadows were talking about the kind of malevolent occurrences that had gone on in their Midlands hometowns. “They were kind of atrocities, but they’d gone unnoticed and unrecognised,” he said. “Horrible things had happened, but they’d been done in the name of leisure almost.” “We started talking about incidents and thought, ‘Well, nobody ever really paid for that. Those guys are still going around today,'” Considine added. “[There’s] the idea of the brother coming back after ten years and kind of making the basic bones of it as a revenge movie.”
i think from an outside perspective, outside of the UK people don't perceive that the quiet towns and villages in England could have this kind of thing happen (obviously i know it's not a true story) but yeah, these type of things did happen, i think every working class area in the North and Midlands will have had those people like Anthony in their community who everyone bullied and took advantage of and that there's a lot of shit holes with shitty people living in them, the "hard men" and drug dealers etc are well know and looked upto in these areas even though they're shitty people. There was a deaf kid on my estate and he got bullied badly one time even got tied up with chains and left in a shed, someone heard him screaming. Other things happened like people giving him joints that were made with allsorts laced in them and see what they did to him. This film hits hard. Toby Kebbel lived in the same town as me.
I dont know how you are picking what to watch but Kudos. This is not that well known even in England where I live and its set there. This is an amazingly realistic portrayal of small town England. Paddy Considine is god level in this. I cried like a baby the first time I saw this.
Chyene-Stoking is a pattern of shallow breathing usually before death. I've been waiting for this! Such an amazing powerful movie. Always makes me cry at the end. Feels like I've been punched in the stomach.
Thankyou for sharing this film ,it was humorous at times but definitely surrounded by a very dark undertone.I must say that your reaction was touching.
Your reactions to this made this watch a thousand times better. It’s a proper roller coaster of emotions and you don’t know where you’re at laughing or heartbroken. Just subscribed, love a good watch reaction ❤😊
Your reaction to that scene with Anthony was exactly like my own when i first seen this movie. Complete shock and heartbeat at the same time. I love movies, but this one is probably the most powerfully emotional movies I've ever seen. Even watching this reaction video filled me tears again. Absolutely heartbreaking stuff.
I only got around to seeing this last year. Perfectly captures the depressing nature of some small towns. But that ending was just mental. Really wasn't expecting it. Top top movie
A great reaction. Really enjoyed watching an American enjoying such a British film. I love that it made you cry and all the emotional beats hit. I think one of the things that makes it great is he doesn't demonise the villains. They're never cartoon bad guys. He really understands those relationships.
I just found your channel earlier and I absolutely love your reactions, I watched Dead Man’s Shoes recently so I guess you got suggested. Love your emotion
I lovw how raw you've kept this, Shane Meadows does this so well. A wild rollercoaster emotional overload. It reminds me of the bullies I grew up with, and for some reason I would idolise these kids. Getting forced to do psychedelic drugs is seriously damaging
Well, you have my subscription. It was really refreshing to see you analysing and not doing fake exaggerated reactions. I liked how you connected this film back to TIE and how Meadows uses stock footage for context. Cool!
You need to keep going down the Shane Meadows rabbit hole…there’s no glitter about his film, they all have such a real gritty insight to life in many places around the world. The Paddy Considine rabbit hole is worth doing too…The Journeyman is a great and highly underrated boxing film that deserves notably.
Fun film fact: Both the brothers actors (Paddy Considine and Toby Kebbel) BOTH played the role of a real life person called Rob Gretton in two different films. 24 hour Party people and Control. Both illustrating the life of Joy Division (the band).
Great that you are watching such dark films. Here are 3 films which are harrowing but are amazing.1. Romper Stomper. 2. Bone Tomahawk. 3. Come and See.
I’ve watched this full movie once, after a full weekend partying on no sleep, wasn’t the smartest move on my part but I’ve never brought myself to watch it again all way through. All that being said it’s absolutely brilliant, Shane meadows is a genius
I've watched this reaction twice now. Good film. Good person. This film was made in 18 days. Was originally going to be a comedy and lost the lead actor weeks before filming started, Not Paddy. In those 18 days they filmed alternate scenes with Richard and Anthony. They would film the same scene with them both in and then with just one of them in the scene.
One of the most underrated movies of all time. This film hits on so many levels. Paddy's performance was amazing.
Great cast and acting throughout. The fear and impending doom was so palpable. Need to make a mention of Toby Kebbels (Anthony) performance which was excellent and got a little bit overshadowed by Paddy's.
Paddy before the Dragons! What an amazing actor. Such a hard film to watch and absorb!
Yeah, this is my 2nd favourite film of all time behind This Is England
@@SR1RecordsIts my best hes done. After i watched this i had to watch everything Meadows did. Le donk and Scorzayzee is a classic too
@@samirdaric2493He was also immense in Peaky Blinders. A fantastic actor.
One of the best British films ever made.
❤
People online will argue with anything but I don't see anyone ever arguing with that.
@@seldom_bucketI will. It's one of the best films ever made.
This is one of my favorite films, Paddy Considine is outstanding. Every time they say "It's Anthony's brother" it give me shivers.
I think this was my first time watching him! He was great...chilling. Have you seen a Room for Romeo Brass? I hear he's also really good in that.
Oh, PLEASE react to that. Meadows's 2nd best film, which was also his debut (if you don't count Small Time, which is pretty much a glorified short film).
@@chrissiereacts A Room For Romeo Brass is my favourite of Shane's films. I think it's on UA-cam.
Rock n roller he was great in that
@@chrissiereacts He is great in Romeo Brass. Well worth a watch, not as bleak as some of Meadows' other work and in places very funny. But still poignant.
The "Yeah, it was me" scene is so badass
You're there mate.
"If I were you, I'd get back in that car and I'd f**k off"
He disarmed Sonny instantly with that. Complete intimidation fail. Was amusing seeing Sonny's character try to regain the upper hand and failing throughout the confrontation.
This movie stays with you.

He doesn't just revenge against the small-town 'gangsters', but also his past self, who failed to be a big brother.
I've always seen it as a film about Richards search for Redemption as much as his Revenge
This is a great explanation and spot on
Richard's time in the army has also removed his sense of fear; and equipped him with the skills and disassociation required for that type of revenge.

Time for the this is england series who agrees
Such a great film, seen it hundreds of times but the "reveal" still brings me to tears
yeah up until the reveal i was guessing the guys had gang raped Anthony.... that would've worked as a plot line too though.
Hi, just found you, Chrissie. This is one of those films that stayed with me for a helluva long time. I laughed, sobbed, yipped and screamed!

I've watched it 4 times over the years, and have been meaning to watch it again recently, I think tonight.
Thank you for your very real reaction to a very special and criminally underrated film.
A brilliant film. The quality of the script and the acting shows why you don't need a huge budget to make a quality film.
It makes me eternally warm knowing the last 13 releases from Disney have all failed.
In case no one else mentions it, Toby Kebbell who plays Anthony doesn’t even have learning difficulties, but I think he plays the part so well and so respectfully it’s a fantastic performance.
Love this film. The switch between humour and drama is so well handled.
Masterpiece 👌🏻... love this film

One of my top 3. Was lucky enough to be at the premier. Still gives me shivers...what a movie - paddy and tobys performances are insane.
Similar vein but more feel good is Wild Bill. The English one. Directed by Dexter Fletcher.
An unbeatable masterpiece. Thank you I really loved watching your reactions. ❤
I loved this reaction. You didn't disappoint. Glad you liked it.
Yay, glad you liked it. Was always one of my favourite films by Meadows.
Well, you have my subscription. It was really refreshing to see you analysing and not doing fake exaggerated reactions. I liked how you connected this film back to TIE and how Meadows uses stock footage for context. Cool!
Thank you! 😊
@@chrissiereacts my pleasure 👍
Class movie, I remember seeing this for the first time and fell in love with it.
Meadows is a master! This is England series next!? 👌❤️
I've watched this movie lots,but actually never shedded a tear till watching your reaction video
You need to keep going down the Shane Meadows rabbit hole…there’s no glitter about his film, they all have such a real gritty insight to life in many places around the world. The Paddy Considine rabbit hole is worth doing too…The Journeyman is a great and highly underrated boxing film that deserves notably.
One of my favorite movies ever. Shane Meadows is a brilliant director.
How can you not cry to this it's heart wrenching
IMHO one of the best films made and extremely moving. The acting is 10/10 throughout.
Brilliant film, and fantastic performances by everyone involved. And ultimately heartbreaking.
Neil Bell, the tall drug dealer man with the big ears (Soz) is also in Dune 1 as the Sardukar Bashar talking to David Dastmalchian in the rain. 🙃
HOLY SHIT
Hi Chrissie, this is what you call a suuuuuuuperrrrr British film. Love you…
The graffiti on the wall basically means death rattle. The type of breathing usually before someone dies.
Thanks for that, i thought it was a kind of pepper. :)
What Anthony was experiencing when he was hanging
Fun film fact: Both the brothers actors (Paddy Considine and Toby Kebbel) BOTH played the role of a real life person called Rob Gretton in two different films. 24 hour Party people and Control. Both illustrating the life of Joy Division (the band).
Great that you are watching such dark films. Here are 3 films which are harrowing but are amazing.1. Romper Stomper. 2. Bone Tomahawk. 3. Come and See.
I don't know if I want to watch someone go through watching Come and See. Truly excellent film, it's something I'm not sure I want to watch again.
Come and see is the best film I will only ever see once but one everyone should see at least once
@@MrPboys1 Same I own it on VHS and have watched 1.5 times. It's a masterpiece. There will never be anything like it.
I’ve watched this full movie once, after a full weekend partying on no sleep, wasn’t the smartest move on my part but I’ve never brought myself to watch it again all way through.
All that being said it’s absolutely brilliant, Shane meadows is a genius
I work around all the film locations , one of my favourite films, a Shane meadows masterpiece.
this film pulls you in so quick. Everybody should watch this.
I've watched this reaction twice now. Good film. Good person.
This film was made in 18 days. Was originally going to be a comedy and lost the lead actor weeks before filming started, Not Paddy. In those 18 days they filmed alternate scenes with Richard and Anthony. They would film the same scene with them both in and then with just one of them in the scene.
The end really makes you understand his rage towards these men. Great movie
I've had to open the kitchen cupboard and balance the phone inside so I can watch while I'm cooking
Haha I do that too sometimes 😅
One of the best films ever made. Certainly the best British film in my opinion. Powerful stuff.
I've watched this film so many times, and recommended it to everyone i meet. It just draws me right in every time
One of my favourite films and I am glad it’s being seen over the pond.
Cheyne Stoking is an irregular breathing pattern that some people experience before they die .
