A young man, bored of his mundane life, sets out for an island rumored to be a solitary beach paradise. Movie name = check first 10 seconds of the video.
The real life location was flooded by tourists for years after this movie came out causing the environment to become despoiled. Kind of ironic. This is why you keep your secret haunts a secret. Once you put it on a vacation list in the media at large, it won't be long before it becomes another tourist trap.
Haha yeah very true I actually went there in 2006 at the locals suggestion, because he knew saying DiCaprio and Hollywood etc would draw people in. It really was as beautiful as the movie depicts, although it's a cove/harbour not a closed off lagoon.
Take it as a social study, people. Take it as a study and realize this is why the harsh words 'Stupid Hippies' do have an Existence-Reason. A right to exist. Richard is a loser and so is Sal; but that issue is more complex than just them being Losers.
@@thecritiquer9407 Actually so-called yoga in the west is just an exercise and not actual Yogasana. Yoga means union of body and mind to get complete relaxation. Stretching out the body is good but it's not actual Yogasana.
as someone who lives close to beaches like this, I didn't understand this movie when I was like 14, when I got older and a foreigner explained to me what is it like living in a big city (Lyon) with pubs and clubs and people everywhere, i understood why Richard thought the beach was paradise on earth. I guess you always want what you can't have!
Same for me. I think it really is better to raise your children in a small environment so they value more of what they see and what it has to offer than a big environment to immense to explore. It's similar to a garden and a jungle.
@@Zeithri Extroverts are those who seek the company of others to 're-charge' their social battery, while Introverts are those who seek solitude to recharge theirs. Overcharging is never good anyway. But, I was talking about stuff like social anxiety and claustrophobia. Just because one is a social butterfly, still doesn't make them not thinking about anxiety or diseases when they're around other people. As for my case, I'm not enjoying my time alone because I'm an introvert. It's a personal issue regarding trust and respect with other humans. I just happened to be an introvert when deciding to lock myself up from other humans.
This is one of the greatest movies time so quickly forgot. When it came out, it was advertised as more of an action thriller, so people were surprised to find a brooding, psychological drama when they went to see it. But it's brilliant when appreciated for what it actually aims to be. Fantastic story, fantastic cast, fantastic score, and Danny Boyle himself at the helm, directing.
I’ve actually been to the Phi phi islands where this was filmed. I think it’s ironic that in the film they desperately want the beach to be a secret but after the film was released it became a massive tourist destination and it got completely trashed. So sad that it’ll never look how it does in the film.
It’s true I went right before covid, and I was wondering “what’s all the fuss about? koh Lanta, Phangan etc are all way nicer.” It was smelly, plastic bottles everywhere, water was dirty from the amount of boats coming in and out. The main Phi Phi island even has a Pizza Company, 7-Eleven etc
This reminded me of the beach in my country, the place is called Boracay (has the white sand and the crystal blue waters) Since it was a popular tourist spot it became dirty and kinda gets crowded. Ever since the pandemic started, it got cleaned and then it became paradise once more

It's on Phi phi island, Thailand. It's not really a secret anymore. If you go on an island tour from Phuket or Krabi, the tour guides will tell you that this is where the movie was filmed.
What? This beach is full with tourists and boats, and the corals have been severely damaged. Thai Government has to prohibit entering the area so that the environment can recover.
I watched this movie many years ago and it really gripped me. I've been meaning to watch it again but thank you for this summary. I feel like I went back to relive the experience of watching it.
Ever since I watched this movie as a kid, I really wanted to see this paradise. last year, I visited this paradise called maya bay and words cannot describe how beautiful it is in person. less crowded cuz it was closed by the thai govt to preserve its beauty and natural habitat but they recently opened it for few months and then closed this place again so that they can control the traffic on this island.
I really.cant believe how people say they would rather watch the recap instead of movie. That is disappointing. People want everything now now now these days. Chill out and enjoy life. There is so much missing in these recap, especially in this one. This is one of my favorite movies of all time. You are missing out on a lot of good character development, nuances is character interaction and plot points. Much much more of the beautiful scenery. The atmosphere, feel of some of the scenes and characters trials are completely void in this recap. This is a MUST watch movie.

@@zeekay_yt1313 Honestly there are tons and tons of places on this Earth that are still like this. People in the US zero in on Hawaii but there are tons of places where you can have the tropical weather and nice beaches and it's like 100X cheaper.
Man, thanks for the nostalgia trip! I remember enjoying this when it came out, think I probably also read the book, but had totally forgotten it existed
This kinda reminds me of some pink beaches in Greece. Tourists found out about them and the next thing that happened was tourists filling up jars with pink sand back to their homes. Well afterwards everyone blamed old pictures for “false advertising” 😂 This whole story had the same vibe with this movie for me.
This is a serious display of humanity One happy group wants to just have fun for them selves but then others thinks its fun and join in then it spoils the fun forever
Yeah, feeling like you've belonged in a special time and place goes a long way toward who you become as a person in society for the rest of your life. The more times you've felt that you belonged the more positive the outlook that you have on your fellow human beans as a whole. That doesn't mean you need to travel the globe to the ends of the earth to find belonging. The hardest and most rewarding journey that most people are trying to escape and avoid by traveling the world is the inward journey. Everything that you want from life is inside of you, period.
When the movie was shot ,phi phi island was almost untouched. Now the place is packed with tourists. I've been there 2 times myself. Last time I took a private longtail 6 o clock early in the morning and had maya bay and pileh lagoon all to myself. It was awesome without all the boats and people there. I saw a lot of sharks as well. I can advice everyone going there to do the same like me. Early morning private longtail from phi phi island. Sleep on phi phi island the night before you leave to maya bay. Longtails available from phi phi island only. Not from phuket or khrabi or any coast city. Have fun 👍
Oh dude, this is one of those films that you CANNOT switch off. Once it's on, DiCaprio's performance (and the supporting cast) just hook you in. It's like Shawshank, it's un-put-downable. So fucking good this film.

If youre looking for a perfect beach with pure white sand and crystal clear water, that literally can be found everywhere in Southeast Asia, how is this an urban myth?
Because it's a SECRET beach where you go hang out with other white ppl and do drugs or whatever. Some things you can go to bad prison for, or be executed. So.. that's the urban myth part.
Man, that's so true. The Philippines has over 7000 islands 75% are uninhabited and Indonesia has even more with 10000 islands. Then you've got Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand. Those three, especially Thailand, have been inundated with tourists, though, thanks to this movie. I have family in the Philippines and I'll see movies and shows about some of these other places that do get inundated and wonder why the Philippines doesn't get as many visitors but sometimes I'm glad it doesn't. It's a happy little secret when I go visit and have beautiful little beaches and islands to wile away the day. God, I wish I could do that now. Screw u COVID
@@peepinR we have a few here in Australia at the hot tropical end where I used to live. Don’t even need to leave the country. Hell I reckon every place with a beach has some places like this. (And yes, unfortunately air travel is the one thing that really really helps viruses, and one finally realised… oops, seemed like a good invention 100 years ago. Screw all this!)
about the people talking about the tourists, i went and the beach is basically identical, they arent even that many people there, when i went there were like 20-30 tourists max. A few times i was even by myself
it is a pretty memorable movie, especially with the great moby song (i still listening to that song monthly basis at least); but i still have lots of problems with it, and watching dicaprio in something like this isn't easy...
I was playing this on the background while I was taking a bath when I heard "Lastly, Bugs comes up, grabs him by the balls" and it caught me off guard a bit
thanks for the recap! i remember watching this when i was a kid, and never understood what it's about and why they would find it to be a paradise. or mb i was distracted by bewbss.
I highly recommend reading the book, if you like the movie. There are lots of differences and details which are omitted and changed in the movie. In the novel, Richard is a more likable guy. He actually respects Etienne and sees him as a brother despite his feelings Francoise. Nothing ever happen between Richard and Francoise, besides a friendly peck on the head, unlike the movie. It's shame Hollywood had to inject loose hookups as a subplot into the movie to make it more interesting to the teenage audiences. The source material is already good enough as it is. I hope Danny Boyle fixes all the wrongs in his new mini series or reboot.
