When you consider that Eastwood is a notorious 'one and done' director who believes in preparing hard and not doing multiple takes unless something technical goes wrong, the performances in Invictus are truly astonishing. Lightning in a bottle.
Morgan Freeman and Clint Eastwood has worked together "a few times" in the past, they're on the same page. The one who probably had more problems with it would have been Matt Damon, just purely because it's a very different way of filming.
I love how basically half the South African team spent 90 minutes gunning for Lomu alone. Just tells you how much of a legend the guy was. RIP Jonah Lomu. The best rugby player in history, and btw, I'm South African.
I think us South Africans can appreciate what a legend Lomu was because they are one of the few teams who has always played with utter soul and dedication. There's the same vibe with other nations in cricket.
@@kratos5754 it wasnt bad as this vid proves. The worst thing in my opinion was England being referred to as the Rose's (complete with apostrophe) in the credits
I cant believe how accurate and precise it is, especially in the rugby final match its like watching the actual game but with actors and different camera angles
Man that speech by Madiba was so well thought out and written; Notice he said "Naver again will this beautiful country experience the oppression of one over another" Nothing about race religion, class or anything in there, no1 person should be oppressed by any other. We need a leader and ministers now who can recall and reciprocate his view. Honestly as a person of colour the only other person in the limelight anywhere you can tell obviously shares that view and wisdom; Rassie - the coach who lead us to championship in 2019, he appointed players on merit, players I didn't even like before (Damion de Allende, Lukhanyo Am) he brought out the best in them and they gave him their best effort. The guy's wise and he's colour blind
It took me a long time getting over South Africa beating Australia in the group stages 😅 Being 10 at the time, the greater significance of the Boks winning the final went over my head till Pienaar said “We didn't have 60,000 South Africans, we had 43 million South Africans.” which i remember being quite moved by.
@@eugenebrink8305 sadly last year another member of the 1995 Springboks team, Hannes Strydom who died in a traffic collision on November 19 at age 58, so you should probably add him to the list.
The fly by of the Jumbo jet is one of those moments that when put on film looks and sounds so ridiculous that you think it's purely a Hollywood addition.

I love movies but I never understand why films based on true events change clothing. Such a small detail but it drives me nuts. The speech at the ONU, you couldn’t find a navy suit, blue shirt and maroon tie for Morgan Freeman? I don’t understand...
They haven't covered the part where the referee doesn’t see the try the french team scored in the half final or when the all blacks conveniently had food poisoning 2 days before the final...
Do 'Das Wunder Von Berne'. In 1954 West Germany was still a nation trying to come to terms with and move on from the Nazi regime. It's Football team went to the '54 Switzerland World Cup not really expecting much, especially after getting destroyed by the mighty Hungarians in the group stages. Against the odds, the Germans won through to the final where they were expected to be nothing more than bit-part players for the great Hungarian team to be finally crowned World Champions. It didn't work out that way and has often been cited in Germany as the true day the nation properly emerged from the war.
Hated the movie, loved the game, I was 5 years old, I met Chester later that year at the IMAX in Town. Our family used to watch this on replay at family gatherings for like 5 years, I'm not overexaggerating! Of course being 5, I didn't understand the whole apartheid thing, though I noticed you only see white people on tv, not in person unless it was a cop

We can all agree Lomu was an absolute force of nature and a great man of rugby 🏉 👏
The fact that the details of the rugby scenes are unbelievably similar!! So precise.
Had to be... The rugby fans watching the movie would have been more nit-picky over accuracy than the historians!
@@my_beer_stories what?
@@kratos5754 some of us rugby fans are real nerds
@@my_beer_stories if I'm remembering this film correctly, the accuracy on rugby was pretty poor

Copy and paste 😂
From a US director, it's almost a miracle 😂
sometimes, casting the perfect actor happens. This is one of those times. Morgan Freeman is perfect for Nelson Mandela.
FINALLY watched INVICTUS- such a good movie!

To go through all he did and come out with his spirit... he is truly an inspiration to the world. I rate that man higher than Ghandi. No lie.

RIP to all the 95 legends that have since passed. Jonah, Chester, James Small, Ruben Kruger, Madiba.
And Joost Van Der Westhuizen
@@dawoodwilliams3652 thx, forgot that important one in this long list.

@ I made this comment before he died.
I feel like this game is one of the most important yet forgotten moments of the 20th Century
Who watching this after world cup final 2019?
Edit: now they won it again in france 2023 after they met again in final since 95
Stop begging for internet points, it's pathetic.
And next year is gonna be 30 years since South Africa won their first Rugby World Cup title in their home country
‘That’s a fine forensic analysis but the experience of it was, somewhat different...’ 😂

日本人です。歴史の授業でインビクタスを見ました！とても感動しました！！！その後グリーンブックも見ました。差別のない世界になるように願っています。
I'm Fijian but I'm really proud of this man - Madiba
Great piece of work must have taken you ages
I enjoyed this movie and I have watched it many times.👍
I thought Morgan Freeman did an excellent job; I happen to love movies with a historical background.
The fly by of the Jumbo jet is one of those moments that when put on film looks and sounds so ridiculous that you think it's purely a Hollywood addition.
映画が凄く忠実に再現されてて、純粋に感動した🥺🥺👍
Excellent work! 👍🏽
thanks 😉
mandela used notes while freeman memorized the whole speech lol
I came here to see the real Pienaar say, "43 million South Africans," and I am not disappointed.
When the reality matches the movie ✊️
Biden talking about "restoring the soul of a nation?" Mandela did just that.
Amazing
This is great! Can you do one of Pope John Paul II and Jon Voight from the 2005 miniseries 'Pope John Paul II'.
