      I have yet to see inglorious bastards, so seeing him play such a good role in Django, it will feel weird seeing him as the evil antagonist. That's when you know the actor did a damn good job, when you associate the character to the actor. It feels so authentic and genuine that you forget its a fictional character and you can't see the actor as anyone else.

      Dimitri K not stealing. Appropriating. Just as the Candie family (and the whole slavery institution) has been appropriating human lives for their facade of superiority and culturedness, Da Jango is enslaving that facade and the spirit of Candie for his own purpose, pulling a swipe in the form of a justice move to reappropriate that which was stolen in the first place.

  • @Y0ungContrarian
    @Y0ungContrarian 5 років тому +13915

    I want to throw out another interesting detail in Django Unchained which I feel was intentional and probably noticed before, even if rarely: Dr Shulz is a DENTIST and the main villain is a man named Calvin CANDY, who by the way has terrible dental hygiene. Schultz refuses the 'white cake' saying that he doesn't go in for sweets. What is candy and cake made out of? Sugar, which was produced largely in the Caribbean by slave labour making many unethical people rich while feeding the masses something sweet. Dr. Shulz refusal is another layer of critique against that bullshit system.

      It's interesting that the refutation creates an entirely non representative image of Black people, who in general couldn't care less about Wagnerian themes even today nearly two centuries after the whites slaughtered each other to end slavery. A slavery system inherited from the Africans themselves, who sold their defeated enemies to Europeans who had abolished slavery centuries before.
      It's a completely fantasious refutation that sounds hollow for that

And all he has to do to walk away alive is shake hands with the devil. And he can't do it. Even knowing it will cost him his life, to look true evil in the eye without destroying it would cost him more. Such a fantastic movie.

      It was a poorly written scene, I think. His actions made no sense whatsoever. Killing Candy killed all the progress Schultz and Django made saving HIldy. Even after their play was exposed Candy was still willing to part with her for the right price, instead of kicking them out and keeping her. Why was Schultz even so mad? That "extraction" was a very successful operation, and even from a business point o f view both parties became what they wanted - Django and Schultz never cared for that fighter and they would have paid any price for Hildy, while Candy got a ton of cash for a slave that cost 10 times less. Schultz, because of his ego, condemned Django to torture and death and Hildy to being a slave again. We only have a happy end because those three slavers were willing to listen to Django.

      You could sense the irritation of King in whole scene, this guy remained cool and calm but just as the tables turn his pride takes a hit and ofcourse shaking hands with Candie would also cleave a huge chunk of his soul

      This is a device of paradox. Multi-lingual Landa is still a sociopathic murderer who is enthralled with American language & dialect ("a Bingo!") and wants to be 'captured' and brought to the USA seeing the Allies are winning. Django, former African slave now bounty hunter as trained by Schultz, must now school Schultz in how they must "intrigue" Candie and the white slavers & henchmen because the super-educated Dr. Schultz still does not fully understand the politics of southern class, customs and mores. Django teaches Schultz as Aldo teaches Landa by the end.

All schools of thought should be challeneged but sorry you only want to see things from your " realistic" point of view .. everyone knows his movies are fictional anyway and you're trying to compare it to some type of truth when truth on these things are subjective anyway. If you dont like it thats good for you .. just stick with reading Nietzsche and Darwin if you hate fiction so much. Sorry you cant find enjoyment in someone being shot with a gun and exploding just because it just doesnt make sense. Try Socrates he would have delight in schooling you about how much you think you know that you dont know. 🤔. Good luck trying to make sense of any art that comes from a unboxed human mind. Your statement looks like a stringing together of words to sound intelligent while not providing any enlightenment about what you criticize. Insults without providing a argument is a good reflection of someone trying to smash words together to sound intelligent while not expressing intelligence. Again i thank you for your opinion but i would prefer a debate if you felt the need to criticize people for liking a art form you clearly cant comprehend.

Dr. Shulltz hated the antisemitic white supremacists bastardizations of his native Germany which is why he told a black man he could be the Germanic hero, "Siegfried", and why he told Miss Laura to stop playing Beethoven on the harp.
      (Pasted from Facebook where a friend talked Germany and paganism):
      Late 19th Century Germany had both a "liberal progressive" neo-paganism movement and an antisemitic wing of white supremacist paganism such as Theosophy. The liberal end lead to much of the interest we see today in the Thor/Odin-myths in Scandiavian Metal as well as nudist beaches/camps and the body-building movement. The "right-wing" lead to Fascism and it borrowed the physical fitness aspect from the liberals.
      This is also when OUIJA Boards and seances became popular. The communist revolutions and the American Civil War left a lot of grieving loved ones who wanted to believe psychics could put them in touch the deceased.
      Waltz himself is an Austrian-born, German-educated fellow and rather dislikes sharing both his native and "foster" countries with a certain little lunatic with an iconic mustache. That's why he loved the role he played in "Inglorious Basterds" as well.

Kubrick indicts the individual, but Tarantino uses the juxtaposition to show the divide between the best and the worst of Western Civilization.

It turned the narrative of the 1915 silent film on its head: instead of the film showing the perspective of terrified Caucasians that dread the revenge of the former slaves, this version depicts all the cruelties and neglect for their needs and desires that led to the rampage of vengeance - pointing out that this would have never happened if slavery was never an accepted institution in the first place...

Its amusing to watch the Hollywood liberal indulge in the idea that the southerner was dumb, but this is nothing new, its so old and so cliched that it undermines the entire premise of this youtube video. Its a retread of the old and tiresome white liberal savior narrative, of guilt and self proclaimed virtue. Go watch some of Alternative Hypothesis's videos on the south and slavery for a different perspective. The false historical narrative pushed in this film is simply insulting. The genetics speak for themselves, owners rarely bred with their slaves beyond the notable exceptions, else black people would be obviously far whiter than they are now. They were expensive to own, and frankly in the end inefficient and detrimental to the economy reliant on them as they undermined labor competition, much as illegals do today. Which is funny because the very people who are so quick to point out slavery as idiotic are staunch supporters of the modern form, mass importing poverty for capitalist exploitation.

    Stephen essentially was making himself a black slaver by the way he treated the other slaves and acted like he was just as important as his master.

He couldn't live comfortably in his comfortable house position, if he didn't believe the same vile beliefs and justifications as the other slavers.
      So he is genuinely a black slaver, in deeds and in belief. There's a direct term for this, as it was a common phenomena, called an "Uncle Tom". Stephen is the embodiment of it. But, it's still crucial to keep in mind that this was only because he had been forced into a horrific position where he had to be. Victims often conform themselves into their abusers to seek reprieve.

      Aristotle argued that people had a role in society. These roles were meted out according to the nature of each person. A warrior has the nature of a warrior and a servant the nature of a servant. It's not about being lesser. It's about justifying slavery and explaining when it is permissible. If a slave could do the things others could do, then he was wrongfully a slave. The children of slaves were not born slaves. He argued instead that these societal positions existed and were based on our natures. People capable only of being slaves should be slaves. People capable of being kings should be kings. Every person should conform to their role in society according to their nature. He was not necessarily in agreement with the methods the Greeks employed to establish slavery.

Thus, slaves would be very different in his view of an ideal city than what is modernly thought of as a slave.

    Almost every point in this video is on track, although like others I would've enjoyed seeing something about the skull scene. However, starting at 13:22, you mention that this movie subverts the Western. While Django does take aspects of the Western in it's style, the reason the Western never focused on slavery much is that slavery never really caught on in the West, it wasn't really a staple part of society at all. Now, this isn't due to a lack of racism on the white westerner's part (see them constantly using Native Americans as villains) but rather that the lifestyle and average wealth level was very different in the West and the South. Without plantations, there was no "need" (not a justification, using racist 1840's justification to explain why this happened in history) for slaves to work a field as the cost outweighed the benefit, and having a house slave would have just seemed plain ridiculous or frivolous for a frontier family barely able to feed their own family.

      Idk where you got your history from. But, while sure there weren't fields and fields of slaves. Blacks indeed were slaves for westerners. They indeed could be no more than just the gathering bitches. Or danger warners or bait. And they were hated, beaten, scapegoated, killed and essed with just for gun..all the good old slavery ideas.
      There are even stories from natives where blacks..if they weren't killed by the natives..which actually didnt happen much...they were either helped or taken in. And therefore had the same fate as the natives.
      The natives, once they saw how the white man was...dphad no problem with the darker ones. And they began to work together in many instances.
      And western ers indeed kept house slaves or "indentured servants".
      It was easier to do that, than to always find a wife or such to keep up the house while you were out. No love had to be shown to a servant.
      But yes, by the time the west was settled, it became less and less and stature thing like in the south. But blacks were still used. Still hated. Still judged. Etc.
      Westerners just decided when the stories were told, they'd avoid ALL the negatives. And those who spread the words. The southerners, northerners, middles...they were amazed by the stories and by this time, even to them, slavery was just such a normal thing, they didnt mention jt

    • @22duckys
      @22duckys 5 років тому +11

      Agon Leed I’m speaking in generalizations of course, speaking about the general viability of the trade as a whole in the west. It also depends what you mean as the west. My assumption was the West could be presumed to be the states not labeled North or South during the time leading up to or during the split. I’m using a few justifications for my belief. First, most western states were admitted as free states as a compromise when the south wanted a new state in the south to be admitted as a slave state (e.g. California for Texas). Since the states didn’t protect slavery, the idea of using slaves to help mine in the gold rush (the main hope of slavers in the west) fell apart pretty quickly as most others didn’t like the competition and slaves that ran away were protected under the law. Second, one of the largest communities in the west outside of the California miners was the Mormon church in Utah. The LDS church became incredibly strict against slavery after they (conveniently) had a revelation about it once the union told them they would need to ban it to become a state, making it difficult for all others in the area to own slaves as well. So yes, you might be right that a trapper might have brought his slave here, or a miner could’ve kept a slave there, the cultural and legal difficulties made using slaves nearly impossible. The fact that they were just not a part of the culture in an accepted way as well as the very small amount of them in the area all results in Slavery never being associated with the Western. Again, this doesn’t mean they weren’t racist, just clarifying.

      @cyotee doge A) White people did slavery far before they saw it in West Africa, see pinnacles of Western culture like Greece and Rome for that. However, unlike Greco-Roman and West African slavery which were motivated by most political goals and ends (I have defeated your people therefore I own some of your people), Western slavery of Africans was motivated by an idea that somehow the color of their skin made Africans less than human and therefore created as a lesser class of enslaved work-beings. Not the same thing, not the same treatment, and not the same justification. Good try though.

      @cyotee doge man. The people that try to use that to justify always only use what they learned from either UA-cam, or by the bias history.
      YES Africans owned slaves. Slavery was a thing in many culutres.
      Wpthe difference is..where are we today? In America.
      Everywhere that owned slaves, and have freed and changed, has went through a phase. A phase where the people freed were criticized and hurt. However, a big difference is that most slavery in much of the past was indentured servitude. Caste systems. All that a person could either buy themselves out of of with the change of the system, so came the realization of reality.
      Going back to slavery in Africa, and tribes selling them off..its kinda in the same form of..there are indeed bad tribes ..but mostly the slaves were prisoners. Do badders. What we today call the prison system.
      The Europeans used those at first.
      Then came the pressure of their guns and whatnot and strategy to set tribes against tribes because...prisoners of war, became slaves that would be sold.
      But what the Africans didnt know was that what the Europeans had in mind was the TYPE of slavery. The type to break families apart, erase a culture, breeding and enslaving children. Acts that the Africans weren't implementing.
      Learn your adrican history.
      Now...in America what's happening is..all of that. Separated families, children sold, breeding, killings, NOT indentured servitude. Vicious slavery.
      And so generations and generations later once freed, there was still the case that these freed slaves were hunted, killed, beaten, etc just for being them. Freed in a land surrounded by people who wanted to erase them.
      Time goes by and you get ghettos.where the society forced them into, pressured them to stay within, not allowed any that disnt just get lucky, to join the basic freedom of just making it from the bottom. The benefit that most other races get. The view of the black man/woman has been engrained into the generation minds ofnost whites.
      So you now have blacks in countryside trying to survive attacks and lack of opportunities. Most not getting the type of land needed to even create their own basic needs, and also not so permitted to even buy their basic needs.
      And you have them in towns or cities the same.
      Everything forced negativily on blacks. And the rhetoric of them just being lazy. Kinda hard to show your hard work when the opportunity isn't there.
      But now the imagery ismod lazy blacks.
      There are documented proofs of drugs being flooded into the ghettos.
      The gangs you know now, started as protection for those neighborhoods. Just like you see and enjoy every movie of a dystopian future where the people who live there must live by any means necessary because the world outside that living area is unlivable...blacks were stuck in these areas with the outside being not permitted to them.stress leads to looking for escape. Drink or drugs.
      And now that means all those people who couldn't get jobs, now have a way to make money.
      Those same people who wanted to protect the areas..the good ones got outnumbered by the morally ambiguous ones. The ones who thought they could just sell to those who use, buy the weapons and supplies needed to fix their areas. No different than mafia. No different than many great movies you love.
      It got out of hand.
      I mean..if you're risking your life and freedom every single day just to survive, what would you do to the person trying to steal that from you? Because remember, there are other desperate people living there too.
      So fan groups of protectors became gangs. Violent. Which again...documented government proof that was indeed the plan.
      Research your nation.
      So the imagery of the black man becomes lazy, thug, violent.
      But really, they're all just a result of the b.s. that white America created. Which can be changed once people understand and stop passing judgement and actualy lend a hand to those in need.
      Race being a nonfactor
      If you decide to not help, that's fine, but being ignorant about shit just makes you look stupid.
      There you go. Summary. From African slavery to the trickery that got us here, throughhistory to what where your ignorance should now be fading from education.
      This summary actually does no justice to real research.
      Take your time. Take a week or 2 and do a little research. Your mommy and daddy and grandpa doesnt know all of history. And they were likely taught the same biased ignorance as well. Or just purposely misled you. School obviously doesnt tell it all. Its 2019 and we still haven't just integrated true history. Were still using just a month to celebrate black history.
      How about this, if you want to really rub it in a black persons face, do true research and come with something past "but other people had slaves so get over it"
      Learn how the nation operates, or PROVE they dont operate as such.

      @22duckys Slavery was never originally a question of race. Aristotle himself, like this video showed, tried to justify slavery by cataloguing supposed "physical particularities" that would give a scientifical justification to slavery when it was a pure politico-economical one. Slavery was always an economic phenomenon. Slave trade in sub-Saharan Africa predates by several millennia the rise of the Triangular Trade. Berbers, Arabs, Carthaginians, Romans all used to trade black people, giving rise to a veritable economy and societies built around slaves, it's just that it weren't limited to blacks only. The Europeans didn't truly go deep in Africa, at least until the 19th century when land grabbing became a race and a matter of philosophy and prestige. Before that, all the slaves were victims of internal warfare between Africans, where tribes would sell their captives for Europeans guns and weapons to again go at war and capture more slaves. The Europeans just stayed on the coast and bought them.
      The Europeans developed racial justification after that. It was not because they were racist that they bought slaves, it's because they needed them as a source of energy in a world pre-steam engine that they created a philosophy that allowed them to create a loophole in the Christian interdiction (see Bartholomeus de las Casas). Racism is an invention to circumvent a problem that white themselves created. And it's worth noting that at the times, white serfs were often not better than slaves, forbidden to leave their land, sometimes limited in their marriage, etc... You also just have to look at white workers in the industrialized North at the time, who were paid a pittance and often called today industrial slaves with how little freedom they had due to their poverty.

      Though this is a true statement for European culture, it is not true for American culture. For reference: see many rap videos, etc. where the artists flash a peace sign, usually at an angle, and palm inward.
      I agree though that when producing content intended to be consumed by an international audience, it's best to be more aware of norms outside of one's own culture in order to prevent any misunderstanding.

Meaning take to heart the word and not just face value which many misunderstand it for. This guy is using the word superficially & literally binds it on his person...but django straight up shoots through it & shows how paper thin/non-existent their take of faith is. Slavers used the bible to justify slavery for a number of reasons I can’t get into but The story is symbolic on a number of levels extending past the story of Siegfried.

One thing I’d like to add on your first point about Shultzs language is that Django starts to emulate it throughout the film. At the beginning Django speaks pretty poorly but slowly through the length of the film his vocabulary grows until the end he has exudes full out eloquence. I like that part.
