I understand this is a movie renactment. But it is amazingly real. Cinema verite. I gave it a thumbs up for the quality of the movie. That thing is as real as it gets. Gotta hand it to the director and the production.
It took me a few minutes to realize it wasn’t real. No one was looking into the camera. I know death would be instantaneous but damn, I’d be freaking too. Just something especially gruesome about having your head removed. I’d much rather die by firing squad
@Michael John Dennis "... our world has now been taken over by evil..."? What an idiot you are. Just when do you imagine there was a world without wrongdoers and without what you call "evil"? You are breathtakingly stupid. Sadly, the world is full of ignorant fools like you.
it's in french. i'm french so it's easy, I will translate: First, the judge decides that the accused is sentenced to death (when they build the guillotine). Then, they will lead and looked where he can write his last wishes. but he wrote nothing. they take him to the church and do pray and commune one last time. Then they offered him wine and a cigarette. when he finished smoking, they take him to the guillotine and running. at the end, counsel for the condemned speaks: "you, the judge, did not you ashamed to acknowledge and decide the right to live a man? you are a monster, a barbarian! if you saw once, just once how these executioners tye ruthless human being, you would be ashamed! they have offered the death penalty that you would not even accepted. you are not human. you do not have no mercy, heart, no soul you are just a body without a soul. "
Your translation seems a bit off. "Mister District Attorney, you were acclaimed when you asked for a death sentence. Are you really proud of it ? Didn't you feel that you were lauded, applauded by barbary ? And what about you, members of the jury ? You, being arrogantly and irresponsibly asked to kill a man ? If only once you had witnessed such a clandestine slaughter, in the shadows of a filthy jail courtyard, if only once you had witnessed executioners doing their job, believe me, members of the jury : being asked to choose death, neither of you would even dare vote for it !"
Один тюремный священник говорил, почему недопустима смертная казнь. Потому что казним уже по сути другого человека, чем тот, которым был преступник в момент преступления. Не зря Бог сказал в Библии: Мне отмщение, Я воздам. И воздает в свое время.
Глупость полнейшая и манипуляция. Христос сказал: "Всякий взявший меч, от меча погибнет". То есть тем самым он утвердил то что за убийством должна следовать соответствующая кара. А для этого есть служители закона и они выполняют Божие отмщение. Самосуда быть не должно, но когда правосудие уклоняется от воздаяния, то и самосуд оправдан.

This is Hamida Djandoubi a Tunisian sentenced to death in France. He was a Tunisian agricultural worker and convicted murderer. He moved to Marseille, France, in 1968 and six years later he kidnapped, tortured and murdered 22-year-old Élisabeth Bousquet en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamida_Djandoubi
It’s in the video description. I doubt any jurisdiction actually carrying out an execution would allow such filming, and certainly not such close shots. It’s past time to abolish the practice altogether.
They should bring back the guillotine but forget the suit, cigarette and soft words on the way there. We have loads of dudes in prison who deserve a haircut like this.
Well, the scene is rather terrifying but I must say it is a really great piece of cinema. Amidou was truly a great actor - you can really feel sorry for his character. Moreover, the auxiliary performers are really good - prison officers having to do their duty but trying to be as caring and comforting as it is only possible.
feel sorry for the character? Seriously? Obviously, you've never had a family member murdered. I'm glad for you. I don't feel the least bit of compassion for murderers. I think its a little comical that they cry when their time comes but they didn't have compassion for their victims.
@@paddy1952Actually, nobody murders in cold blood like the killers sent to death row. They often commit murders beyond what can be imagined. A quick, clean, fairly painless death is nothing in comparison. A dental visit is more painful.
Haha you would want him to die if he killed you or your family but you call for mercy with everyone else's family, he's only sorry he got caught. Go talk to mothers who have no child because he killed them with a hammer because he was simply having a bad day hypocrite
The scene is realistic although a few details of the procedure are missing or incorrect: for instance, the inmate had his hands laced during each movement outside of his cell, the last day was no exception, and blankets were put on the ground to dampen the noise so the other inmates would hear the minimum possible. Besides, although very similar in its architecture, this is not la Santé prison. Still: a poignant scene, as the cinema of this period gave us so often.
+Loic Dumbruch Thank you anyways ! This sure is a interesting piece of history. Do you happen to know when the last person was executed by guillotinne in Belgium ? And is there still some form of deathpenalty left in the Belgian law altough I am under the impression that such punishments are not carried out in any Benelux-country..
Patrick Ilmoni I didn't understood the end of your sentence but the last death penalty we have registred was in 1924, but the death penalty was borred of the Belgium's rules in 95. But, pay attention ! In this video is in France ! The last execution in France was in 77.

The first words of a French execution usually were to inform the condemned man (or woman - the last Frenchwoman to be executed was guillotined in 1949) that his final appeal had been turned down. He was then told: "Ayez du courage" (Be brave) or words to that effect. I'll get back to you on what is said at the end, but to sum up a jury is being told that if thy could see an execution for themselves they would think twice about sending someone to his or her death.
@@sinomagcanton4260 1949 actually. Germaine Leloy-Godefroy was guillotined on April 21 1949 in Angers for killing her husband with an axe. She had wanted to be with a lover who sharpened the axe for her and whom she then accused of the murder having given him all her savings. She died with holy pictures hidden under her clothing.
@@kevinwachsmann3111 the execution is very quick, less than a minute. While execution by electrocution takes minutes, by firing squad takes minutes and by lethal injection can take up to hours. So yes, I’d say this is the less barbaric form of execution, all the while being the most deterrent.
This is how you make (part of a) movie of an execution. Ive just watched an (very) American "version" of Bundys execution. A group of wooden planks pretending to be actors. At the end of which you feel like you have watched something that was created in an oxygen tent, and you have been treated like an idiot. This has everything. Emotion and atmosphere, cinematography, fear, loneliness, the heavy hand of the state. You forget these people are actors and you get drawn in. You do not just sit and watch dispassionately, you are involved. If you feel drained and a bit stunned at the end it is no accident. This is cinema. It is an artform. Something long long lost in the USA, where there has to be a "message" in every eye movement and beyond.
I agree man. I want to feel like im a fly on the wall not like im a child and cant handle it. American media always handfeeds you like an idiot and everythings just getting kiddier and kiddier. Its soulless.
only this film in question retraces the execution of François Toledo infamous in France for torture, rape and murder of a prostitute, and finally in France at the time the executions were really done in this way, the Americans you think you know France and its history, but France is more complex and is the last country in Europe to have abolished the death penalty, under President François Mitterand in 1981, and as far as Toledo is concerned, its execution is for my part a fair return of things and which also avoids recidivism at 100%, tributes to the victims of this filthy assassin.
What a sadistic and drawn out performance. In British practice, the cell for the condemned man was right next to the gallows and I believe the record for hangman Albert Pierrepoint was eight seconds from cell to drop.
The thin haired guy standing at the cell door is the French guy on the train that Popeye chased and shot in the movie The French Connection. He’s also standing between the two guards while the priest is praying .
The Frog who hijacked the subway-train in "The French Connection" was played by Marcel Bozuffi, who would have merited a more prominent part than that of someone standing in the background
@@alekseyshakhlay9818 En France y a tellement de violations de liberté sur la population que énumérer les problèmes serai trop longs et puis pour comprendre il faut vivre en France.
I remember reading the Guinness Book of Records in the mid 1970s and seeing the execution had only happened 2 or 3 years earlier. I was appalled and surprised. You can imagine my shock in looking at the Book of Records in 1978/ 79, and seeing that entry had been updated.
In my country, Sweden, the last execution was 100 years ago this year. Time to celebrate!!! Lots of people here think that countries who kill their own citizens are underdeveloped.
I have been told by a man who have been detained in the Prison des Baumettes in Marseille that generally convicts had received so much neuroleptics that they barely understood what was happening to them when they were forced to walk to the guillotine ! Nevertheless I would still like to say that this is by no means an argument for the death penalty !!!
Neuroleptics we’re not given at all, but a glass of alcohol and a cigarette right before crossing the door to the guillotine. The movie does a perfect job at portraying it
A horrible way to go, and im so glad that France, like other countries in Europe, have done away with the death penalty. Having said that, I think the guillotine was probably preferable to hanging, which we had in the UK until the 1960s. I know this was only acting, but i really felt this man's fear as he was dragged to the guillotine.
Fairly accurate description of a French guillotine execution except in a real execution the rope was only used to raise the mouton and was removed and hooked to one of the uprights to allow the mouton to fall freely. Can't understand how they got this wrong. Unlike the US and formerly the UK, the French didn't tell the condemned the date of his execution. They would simply turn up at the cell before dawn and inform the condemned his time was up. I think personally I'd rather know. It must have be hell falling asleep at night not knowing if it was your last. Cruel and unusual punishment I would have thought.
The time a prisoner spent in a UK death cell was around 3 weeks. Would you have slept better counting down the days to your date with Pierrepoint and the gallows next door?
I read that because of this teh condemned tended to not sleep at night but during the day once they knew they were going to survive until the next morning at least.
No, according to the French law of the time on capital punishment, the detainee was never warned in advance, everything was done with the utmost discretion to prevent the condemned person from committing suicide, in principle the director of the prison received the order of execution the day before for the following day often carried out in 4:00 and 6:00 of the morning.
@@knutgordon9954 They knew the date but that they were right next door to the gallows was withheld from them. Unlike the French and the Americans, they had no elaborate ritual delays. It was done very rapidly.
"Все они тоже хотели жить". Ах, ах, ах! Ох, уж мне эта хищная сентиментальность! Можно подумать, что убив ещё одного человека, государство вернёт их к жизни. Нет! Я - против смертной казни. И очень хорошо, что во Франции её отменили. Государство не должно быть убийцей, государство и так достаточно портит кровь и нервы людям! Место гильотины - в музее.
@@rogerhoveden8486 Ну что вы говорите,хоть думаете?!Зачем так Ах! и Ох уж хищная сентиментальность?Что значит хищная и сентиментальность,и государство вернёт их к жизни?(И ещё насчёт этого-"Государство не должно быть убийцей, государство и так достаточно портит кровь и нервы людям").Причём здесь всё это.Всё правильно же написал "всех в сад",так и есть же.Никто ведь не имеет права вот так ни за что убивать,тем более женщин.А этот преступник действительно самый настоящий маньяк.Я конечно же согласен насчёт гильотины,это действительно была неописуемая дикость на протяжении почти 200 лет и место гильотины действительно в музее(кстати в подвале одной из тюрем Германии до сих пор лежит готовая к использованию гильотина),но с другой стороны как ещё соразмерно наказывать убийц,насильников,маньяков,потрошителей,военных преступников?Только смертной казнью, а что, многим давать пожизненное заключение чтобы они жрали,срали,спали бы за счёт налогоплательщиков,т.е. народа да? Да ни за что.Но с другой стороны конечно же были случаи судебной ошибки,например в случае Кристиана Рануччи во Франции(даже фильм несколько лет назад снят по этому делу),в Союзе,в Штатах тоже предостаточно.В тех же США электрический стул до сих пор ведь существует в некоторых штатах,я тоже считаю это бесчеловечностью,дикостью,садизмом.У меня всё таки тоже неоднозначное отношение к казни,но гуманнее(если так можно выразиться)среди всего-расстрел. Конечно же если есть сомнения,подозрения,обязательно должна быть возможность полного оправдания подозреваемого.
Real or not, this gave me the chills. I felt great pity for the condemned. I don't know the crime but this certainly would be a deterrent to other would be murderers.
1:55 you can see the actor hyperventilate. I would have done more than that. I would have been on the floor with a need for clean underwear. I only joke because this is a movie and not real. Otherwise, wow, what a thing to have to go thru. And Marie Antionette apologized to the executioner for stepping accidentally on his foot? Wow.
Better the old British way. Hangman suddenly enters the cell, prisoner in pinioned, hidden door opens, prisoner marched to scaffold. Head covered, legs tied, noose on and trapdoor is sprung. Albert Pierrepoint had it down to less than 20 seconds.
@@susannordstrom5065 Same, there's very little chance of botching and the process is generally quick(even if one is conscious for 30 or so seconds afterward). Unusual, perhaps, but certainly not cruel when compared to other options.
а еще можно вспомнить, когда лезвие в пазах застревало или вообще не падало. Всякое бывало. Давай не будем развивать) Я так понимаю, что сам фильм преследовал цель показать, как ужасна казнь. На эту тему еще есть произведение у Гюго "Последний день приговоренного к смерти"
So, to all you who think this is great grow up! This was someone's son. Heaven forbid that you might have a son or daughter who find themselves at the mercy of the state. You wouldn't be advocating the use of the death penalty then would you. All your arguments would evaporate. USA/CHINA good examples of progress. Get a life for god sake. They rank alongside Iran and host of third world countries who haven't yet developed. To be fair to the US it is mainly states like Texas who are responsible.
I actually made an accunt to tell you what i thought, this is very personal but a few years back my cousin was very brutally murdered, i wont say what happened cuz its nobody elses fuckin businesses but the guy deserved the death penalty and he got out of it, he got a life sentece. And guess where i live, where it happened and where he got charged, motherfucking Texas! Its not as easy as you may think to get the death penalty. But i damn sure believe it is just under certain circumstances, you dont want your kids on death row dont let them grow up to be psychopaths! But dont think they can get away with hirting others, my state didnt have our backs when it should have and it makes me sick, but il tell you on goddamn thing some people fucking earned being executed!
if i was murdered i would want the person to suffer for a long time. If you the govenment kill them your pain wont leave you. its still murder even if the person being put to death has committed a unforgivable crime. In america a lot of the people on death row are put to death 30 years after they were convicted. they have changed in most cases and live with remorse because they are different people. look at people like ian brady in the uk he wants to die been on hunger strike for years. they could easly let him go as well but they don't because he gets to suffer for what he has done. sorry for your loss kyle.
Have you ever had someone you love murdered? I have. My 16 year old nephew was murdered by a 56 year old pedophile. And that sack of shit has been in prison since 1989. I wish he was dead. I could throw the switch on him today and get a great nights sleep tonight. I do not give a single rat's ass about murderers. Haven't seen a single person on death row that I felt sorry for. The death penalty is not a deterrent: it's a cure.
Very Interesting and good acting by the person who played the convict. I am against the death penalty but out of all the methods of death, I think this is the most humane. Very quick death
I don't know that it's a very quick death as it's a possibility that the brain/consciousness can continue to be aware for a short time afterward and be aware of what has happened which is a horrifying thought. It may be only a few seconds but that's frightening.
There was a particular, implicit cruelty in the way executions were typically carried out in France. By tradition, all executions were carried out before dawn on a Wednesday morning & the condemned inmate was only informed on the morning it was to take place, meaning that all the inmates on the row had 6 days of gradually increasing anxiety to deal with, every week; not to mention listening for the footsteps of the prison guards coming up to & perhaps past their cell.
@@pierren___ I think the issue is that you cannot execute anyone in either way without causing excessive stress. Not being aware, and knowing you could be executed at any time I think would be far worse.
Life Love Death Directed by Claude Lelouch Music by Francis Lai Release date 1968 Running time 115 minutes Country France Box office $9.8 million [1] La Vie, l’Amour, la Mort is a film directed by Claude Lelouch in 1968 (released in France in 1969).
If a man is so obviously repentant that even the prison guards are being compassionate, why kill the man? Let him work in the prison kitchen or laundry for the rest of his life. Capitol punishment should be reserved for the reprobates who are beyond contrition. An eye for an eye is not always right.
Yes directed by Claude Lelouch. Francois Toledo played by Amidou (the person being executed) does an impacting role throughout the movie. This movie was made to educate about the inhumanity of the guillotine, and it did that indeed.
@@Tdubreuil you should read Dostoyevsky (in particular "Idiot"), there's a part three where he describes the difference - when condemned to death, you can be sure the state will kill you. Victims of most murders except very few aggravated exceptions have hope of living till very last moments. That's why death penalty is more cruel than all except the most horrifying murders
You'd think that a punishment like that would be better than say the Electric Chair, the Gas Chamber or Lethal Injection. It's obviously quicker, and less chance of it being botched like the Electric Chair or Lethal Injection.
This is the closing scenes from Life love death, the voice over at the end is a plea for the abolition of the Death penalty in France (remember this was made in the 60's).
French brain specialists believe that you can still have awareness for a few seconds after the decapitation. I thought it was instant death but if there's still oxygenated blood in the brain then apparently the person can still live for a few seconds afterwards.
It's unlikely. When blood pressure in the brain drops precipitously there's a nearly instantaneous reflex reaction that shuts down consciousness in order to use less oxygen. The victim probably loses consciousness in a fraction of a second, before they perceive any pain. of course the brain is still alive for some time so reflex reactions to things like slapping the face are possible, but there's no conscious awareness of those stimuli.
@Severus-Rogue I think people who wish for death of others , no matter the circumstance, is no better than a blood thirsty murderer who just hasnt had a victim yet. You cant say murder is bad and wish for murder. makes no sense. Either its bad all the time no matter who does it or its not bad.
@@brucetucker4847 There are reports of the eyes blinking and looking around at the crowd with a look of complete astonishment as the executioner lifts the severed head from the basket to show it to all the onlookers
@@BillSikes. And there reports of bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster. I suspect those people are exaggerating what they actually saw either deliberately or because it is a very disturbing and emotionally packed event.
I realize that this is a cinematic re-enactment of what was France's last execution by guillotine and despite the fact that the convicted was a brutal murderer, you still feel some compassion for him in his last minutes.
I feel exactly the same compassion for the convicted murderer as he felt for his victims. Perhaps society should give him a 2nd chance, right? Oups, society must've given him 20 chances until that moment. That's why his neck is finally where it should have been much earlier.
It's from a movie produced about 8 years *before* the last Guillotine execution. But, interestingly: the actor playing the condemned was Hamidou Benmessaoud, while the last victim of the Guillotine was Hamida Djandoubi. Quite some similarity in the first names.
I thought after pulling his shirt down they were going to take a magic marker and put a dotted line across his neck and write, "cut here." Notice that they said "hurry up" rather than "chop chop " As films go, definitely a cut above the rest.
Agreed. But this way is more human. Faster is better. Check out here the "dialogue de Karmelites". In the Executionscene they killed the poor Nuns within a few minutes, one after the other, terrible! The Victim here is a murder, the Nuns were innocent.
I know this is only a film but! the guy who will be meeting the guillotine is terrified, i'll never understand why murderers and serial killers when they are convicted and are heading to D R are BEGGING to live, why did these people NOT think like that for their victim? the perpetrator is shitting himself or herself when they hear they are to die for the crime they committed, they didn't care about the poor victim and why is it that they (the convict) WANTS to live, their victim WANTED to live also. The D R prisoner FIGHTS to LIVE, what about the victim, what chance did they get?

Ага, классика 😁 к слову, я во время просмотра видео представил альтернативный финал, тоже на основе анекдота ))) Чувак видит перед собой гильотину, впадает в дикий ужас, упирается, орёт - "Нет!!! Не-е-е-ет!!! Не надо!!! Умоляю!!! Не хочу-у-ууу!!!" И прокурор (или кто там у них главный) - "Не хотите? Ну, дело ваше. Комиссар, отпустите его, он не хочет. Вы свободны, месье..." 😁
Here's a grotesque coincidence if you like! The actor in this film (Amidou) bore a striking resemblance to Hamida Djandoubi, the last man guillotined in France in real life. That happened in 1977 - a few years later capital punishment was abolished in France. This film was made seven years earlier, in 1970. And Amidou himself passed away just one month ago, aged 78. Of natural causes!
I first thought that this is a documentary footage. What a great acting!

The "execution" looks real. Well played. I was thinking it was real, but learnt from commentators that it's from a movie.
It’s in the video description. I doubt any jurisdiction actually carrying out an execution would allow such filming, and certainly not such close shots. It’s past time to abolish the practice altogether.
They should bring back the guillotine but forget the suit, cigarette and soft words on the way there. We have loads of dudes in prison who deserve a haircut like this.

Great acting . Frighteningly realistic.
amidou he is my most fave French actor. loved him in Sorcerer and Ronin
But this is much older.
Well, the scene is rather terrifying but I must say it is a really great piece of cinema. Amidou was truly a great actor - you can really feel sorry for his character. Moreover, the auxiliary performers are really good - prison officers having to do their duty but trying to be as caring and comforting as it is only possible.
What is the context? What was the guy convicted of? He looks terrified, but could have murdered a couple people.
feel sorry for the character? Seriously? Obviously, you've never had a family member murdered. I'm glad for you. I don't feel the least bit of compassion for murderers. I think its a little comical that they cry when their time comes but they didn't have compassion for their victims.

The Anticipation of Death ,
is Worse the Death Itself.
The scene is realistic although a few details of the procedure are missing or incorrect: for instance, the inmate had his hands laced during each movement outside of his cell, the last day was no exception, and blankets were put on the ground to dampen the noise so the other inmates would hear the minimum possible.
Besides, although very similar in its architecture, this is not la Santé prison.
Still: a poignant scene, as the cinema of this period gave us so often.

The first words of a French execution usually were to inform the condemned man (or woman - the last Frenchwoman to be executed was guillotined in 1949) that his final appeal had been turned down. He was then told: "Ayez du courage" (Be brave) or words to that effect. I'll get back to you on what is said at the end, but to sum up a jury is being told that if thy could see an execution for themselves they would think twice about sending someone to his or her death.
And if they could the see the murder they would change their minds yet again.

This is how you make (part of a) movie of an execution. Ive just watched an (very) American "version" of Bundys execution. A group of wooden planks pretending to be actors. At the end of which you feel like you have watched something that was created in an oxygen tent, and you have been treated like an idiot.
This has everything. Emotion and atmosphere, cinematography, fear, loneliness, the heavy hand of the state. You forget these people are actors and you get drawn in. You do not just sit and watch dispassionately, you are involved. If you feel drained and a bit stunned at the end it is no accident. This is cinema. It is an artform. Something long long lost in the USA, where there has to be a "message" in every eye movement and beyond.
I agree man. I want to feel like im a fly on the wall not like im a child and cant handle it. American media always handfeeds you like an idiot and everythings just getting kiddier and kiddier. Its soulless.
only this film in question retraces the execution of François Toledo infamous in France for torture, rape and murder of a prostitute, and finally in France at the time the executions were really done in this way, the Americans you think you know France and its history, but France is more complex and is the last country in Europe to have abolished the death penalty, under President François Mitterand in 1981, and as far as Toledo is concerned, its execution is for my part a fair return of things and which also avoids recidivism at 100%, tributes to the victims of this filthy assassin.

America churns out rubbish, there isn't much of it worth watching whatever the genre'.

What a sadistic and drawn out performance. In British practice, the cell for the condemned man was right next to the gallows and I believe the record for hangman Albert Pierrepoint was eight seconds from cell to drop.
I was about to post exactly the same
Yes, I read something to that effect, but it was a case in which the prisoner actually ran towards the rope.

Classy. The French have Maurice Chevalier speaking at his execution. Very Classy & Very French.
The last executioner of France was also named Maurice Chevalier, if I am not mistaken.
A horrible way to go, and im so glad that France, like other countries in Europe, have done away with the death penalty. Having said that, I think the guillotine was probably preferable to hanging, which we had in the UK until the 1960s. I know this was only acting, but i really felt this man's fear as he was dragged to the guillotine.
Indeed. It was so horrible, I think it will give me nightmares.
Best way to go.. quick and painless. Good acting here. Felt the tension.
Fairly accurate description of a French guillotine execution except in a real execution the rope was only used to raise the mouton and was removed and hooked to one of the uprights to allow the mouton to fall freely. Can't understand how they got this wrong. Unlike the US and formerly the UK, the French didn't tell the condemned the date of his execution. They would simply turn up at the cell before dawn and inform the condemned his time was up. I think personally I'd rather know. It must have be hell falling asleep at night not knowing if it was your last. Cruel and unusual punishment I would have thought.
The time a prisoner spent in a UK death cell was around 3 weeks. Would you have slept better counting down the days to your date with Pierrepoint and the gallows next door?
***** Pierrepoint - Good movie. Fanciful, but pretty darned good.
I read that because of this teh condemned tended to not sleep at night but during the day once they knew they were going to survive until the next morning at least.
No, according to the French law of the time on capital punishment, the detainee was never warned in advance, everything was done with the utmost discretion to prevent the condemned person from committing suicide, in principle the director of the prison received the order of execution the day before for the following day often carried out in 4:00 and 6:00 of the morning.
@@knutgordon9954 They knew the date but that they were right next door to the gallows was withheld from them. Unlike the French and the Americans, they had no elaborate ritual delays. It was done very rapidly.

Да ни за что.Но с другой стороны конечно же были случаи судебной ошибки,например в случае Кристиана Рануччи во Франции(даже фильм несколько лет назад снят по этому делу),в Союзе,в Штатах тоже предостаточно.В тех же США электрический стул до сих пор ведь существует в некоторых штатах,я тоже считаю это бесчеловечностью,дикостью,садизмом.У меня всё таки тоже неоднозначное отношение к казни,но гуманнее(если так можно выразиться)среди всего-расстрел.

Better the old British way. Hangman suddenly enters the cell, prisoner in pinioned, hidden door opens, prisoner marched to scaffold. Head covered, legs tied, noose on and trapdoor is sprung. Albert Pierrepoint had it down to less than 20 seconds.

But dont think they can get away with hirting others, my state didnt have our backs when it should have and it makes me sick, but il tell you on goddamn thing some people fucking earned being executed!
if i was murdered i would want the person to suffer for a long time. If you the govenment kill them your pain wont leave you. its still murder even if the person being put to death has committed a unforgivable crime. In america a lot of the people on death row are put to death 30 years after they were convicted. they have changed in most cases and live with remorse because they are different people. look at people like ian brady in the uk he wants to die been on hunger strike for years. they could easly let him go as well but they don't because he gets to suffer for what he has done. sorry for your loss

There was a particular, implicit cruelty in the way executions were typically carried out in France. By tradition, all executions were carried out before dawn on a Wednesday morning & the condemned inmate was only informed on the morning it was to take place, meaning that all the inmates on the row had 6 days of gradually increasing anxiety to deal with, every week; not to mention listening for the footsteps of the prison guards coming up to & perhaps past their cell.
Well they knew that it was coming. They were criminals. You were not sent to guillotine for a simple robbery.
Yes. I would prefer to know and steel myself.
This is how they do it in Japan also. The condemned are not informed until the morning of their death
Its made to be easier. If you are aware, its horrible.
@@pierren___ I think the issue is that you cannot execute anyone in either way without causing excessive stress. Not being aware, and knowing you could be executed at any time I think would be far worse.

If a man is so obviously repentant that even the prison guards are being compassionate, why kill the man? Let him work in the prison kitchen or laundry for the rest of his life. Capitol punishment should be reserved for the reprobates who are beyond contrition. An eye for an eye is not always right.
Yes directed by Claude Lelouch. Francois Toledo played by Amidou (the person being executed) does an impacting role throughout the movie. This movie was made to educate about the inhumanity of the guillotine, and it did that indeed.
@@Tdubreuil you should read Dostoyevsky (in particular "Idiot"), there's a part three where he describes the difference - when condemned to death, you can be sure the state will kill you. Victims of most murders except very few aggravated exceptions have hope of living till very last moments. That's why death penalty is more cruel than all except the most horrifying murders
You'd think that a punishment like that would be better than say the Electric Chair, the Gas Chamber or Lethal Injection. It's obviously quicker, and less chance of it being botched like the Electric Chair or Lethal Injection.
@paweljasnos Oh please.
This is the closing scenes from Life love death, the voice over at the end is a plea for the abolition of the Death penalty in France (remember this was made in the 60's).
The last person executed by guillotine was in 1977.
And abolished in 1981.
French brain specialists believe that you can still have awareness for a few seconds after the decapitation. I thought it was instant death but if there's still oxygenated blood in the brain then apparently the person can still live for a few seconds afterwards.
It's unlikely. When blood pressure in the brain drops precipitously there's a nearly instantaneous reflex reaction that shuts down consciousness in order to use less oxygen. The victim probably loses consciousness in a fraction of a second, before they perceive any pain. of course the brain is still alive for some time so reflex reactions to things like slapping the face are possible, but there's no conscious awareness of those stimuli.
@Severus-Rogue I think people who wish for death of others , no matter the circumstance, is no better than a blood thirsty murderer who just hasnt had a victim yet. You cant say murder is bad and wish for murder. makes no sense. Either its bad all the time no matter who does it or its not bad.

I realize that this is a cinematic re-enactment of what was France's last execution by guillotine and despite the fact that the convicted was a brutal murderer, you still feel some compassion for him in his last minutes.
I feel exactly the same compassion for the convicted murderer as he felt for his victims. Perhaps society should give him a 2nd chance, right? Oups, society must've given him 20 chances until that moment. That's why his neck is finally where it should have been much earlier.
Why? He felt no compassion for his victim.
Aucune compassion.
It's from a movie produced about 8 years *before* the last Guillotine execution.
But, interestingly: the actor playing the condemned was Hamidou Benmessaoud, while the last victim of the Guillotine was Hamida Djandoubi. Quite some similarity in the first names.

Agreed. But this way is more human. Faster is better. Check out here the "dialogue de Karmelites". In the Executionscene they killed the poor Nuns within a few minutes, one after the other, terrible! The Victim here is a murder, the Nuns were innocent.
I know this is only a film but! the guy who will be meeting the guillotine is terrified, i'll never understand why murderers and serial killers when they are convicted and are heading to D R are BEGGING to live, why did these people NOT think like that for their victim? the perpetrator is shitting himself or herself when they hear they are to die for the crime they committed, they didn't care about the poor victim and why is it that they (the convict) WANTS to live, their victim WANTED to live also. The D R prisoner FIGHTS to LIVE, what about the victim, what chance did they get?
Приговорённого к смерти ведут к месту казни в ужастную погоду очередной раз подскальзнувшись он выругалься по поводу погоды на что конвойный ему сказал.-"Ты то что ноешь нам ещё обратно идти!
Ага, классика 😁 к слову, я во время просмотра видео представил альтернативный финал, тоже на основе анекдота ))) Чувак видит перед собой гильотину, впадает в дикий ужас, упирается, орёт - "Нет!!! Не-е-е-ет!!! Не надо!!! Умоляю!!! Не хочу-у-ууу!!!" И прокурор (или кто там у них главный) - "Не хотите? Ну, дело ваше. Комиссар, отпустите его, он не хочет. Вы свободны, месье..." 😁
Barbare😢
Here's a grotesque coincidence if you like! The actor in this film (Amidou) bore a striking resemblance to Hamida Djandoubi, the last man guillotined in France in real life. That happened in 1977 - a few years later capital punishment was abolished in France.
This film was made seven years earlier, in 1970.
And Amidou himself passed away just one month ago, aged 78. Of natural causes!
