6:08 Deleted scene confirmed that Joni's company is bankrupt, people keep complaining that her products cause stuff like rashes, she's been stealing extra money claiming it's all for her daughter's university fees when she's really pocketing half of it. The thing with Meg is that she doesn't seem in a rush to pay for anything on her own or to get a job once she's finished uni. Another deleted scene shows why Walt's prejudiced wife is so jumpy, Walt started doing insider trading and is now in debt to the wrong people, that's why he's walking with the cane, his leg was hurt as a warning. He's desperate for money.
@@rxbeccarose Guess they now have no alternative now but to swallow their pride and ask Marta for help. Could be good for them. Wonder if Walt's alt-right son knows about his dads money troubles - and if he knows his grandad bought the house from a Pakistani real-estate developer, not sure if he'd like that. Do you think Marta sue him for filming her without her permission - that live-stream video he took of her when they family were clustering around her car.
This sounds almost like Umineko with th parents being in debt and trying to win favor with their father (grandpa for the second gen) for the money. Only this time everyone is alive besides the father/grandpa.
Another commenter about this film mentioned that it starts out a mystery but turns into a heist - when the audience thinks Marta is responsible, you start rooting for her to avoid getting caught.
The notorious dog lover Chris Evans has said that acting mean to the dogs for the takes with them was extremely difficult for him, cause all he wanted to do is get down and play with them. To get the dogs jumping up on him, he hid their toys in his pockets for the scene, but immediately gave them back as soon as the scenes were shot and I'm sure having a grand old time playing with them when cameras weren't rolling.
That's something Agatha Christie points out. Nurses, Doctors and Dentists, they don't just suddenly make mistakes. Don't get me wrong, she wrote about a few stories about murderous doctors or nurses but then the point would be that they used their knowledge and their training to cover their tracks and make it look like someone else did it or that it was natural. But the point is that they don't just suddenly give the wrong dosage or the wrong medication, not after years of training and practice and experiences, they just give the right medication and the right dosage automatically. There was one case of someone considering (not really as a plan but as a half-idea for revenge) caring for someone so badly they'd die of their illness but, to paraphrase what they said so as not to spoil too much, 'when you're professionally trained you can't really do that." She also put a lot of focus on the questions of 'What did they see exactly?' and 'What exactly did they say?'
This was the movie that inspired me to finally make my top 15 movies list (couldn't narrow it down to 10 aha) and it honestly makes me happy that a movie made in the late 2010s that I have no nostalgia for, is not based on a franchise I'm interested in, and is a genre I've never had more than a passing interest in, could make it on that list. "Because you are a good nurse" gets me every time. Benoit Blanc is a tough, seasoned SOB but he's clearly so compassionate too, and he values goodness in the world. It's like the movie is saying goodness can still matter even if the world is a pretty objectively shitty place. While many aspects of the film are cheesy, that message is presented in probably the least cheesy way possible, and I really appreciate that.
Note that just about all of them at some point mention where Marta is from - each of them says a different South American country. That's how much they really care.
6:20 Not really. Walt's wife is likewise jumpy and she's an outsider, only in the family because she married Walt. Richard's an outsider, he's only in the family because he married Linda. And Joni's an outsider too, she's only in the family because she was married to another son who's now dead. And lets not forget Fran the housekeeper, they'd see her as an outsider as well. Plenty of murder mysteries are done by outsiders either because they wormed their way into something or because it turns out they have a closer connection to a family or a person than anyone knows, but just as many are done by family members. Sometimes it's even both.
20:44 wow i would hate all of them staring at me like that. it's like the equivalent of having to do a presentation in front of the class and they all stare at u
One of my favourite films of the decade, brilliant acting, fantastic writing and great characters. Rian Johnson might've done a lot of bad work with Star Wars but he definitely redeemed himself after making this modern masterpiece and cant wait to see the next 2 he is working on right now.
Making one decent movie makes up for killing an entire franchise? 🤔 interesting. A lot of people deemed Star Wars 4, 5, and 6 as Masterpieces...yet Rian dismantled everything they did by changing Luke to his wretched version...and why we got the follow up trying to reassemble what he destroyed.
@pulpficti i only like 4. I consider films like Train to Busan, Willow, Ghost in the Darkness, Conan the Barbarian(1982), A Silent Voice, Sword of the Stranger, Kill Bill Volume 1, 3 Idiots, Midnight FM, all better. So what are some movies you consider better than the 2 Star Wars u like? I assume ur a Rian Johnson fan so probably some other overrated Hollywood stuff? Twilight? 50 Shades? Hateful Eight or Inglorious Bstrds? With your name i assume you love Tarantino so think he can't do any bad cinema... he's about as close to the same % of good movies as Star Wars. Those in a glass house shouldn't throw stones. Comments like urs are the worst. Accuse, poke with little input, trying to invoke a fIippid response. 0 content. Shows character.
@@myTERAexperience I am so sorry to hurt your feelings. Tbh I don't like any Rian Johnson movies except for knives out. Obviously I like every Tarantino movie. Objectively speaking maybe 2 are mediocre but that's definitely better than whatever those prequels were. And funnily enough, the prequels are considered good now amongst Star Wars fans lol
Suspecting the "outsider" for so long just because she's the "outsider" is hella sus, ngl. (Especially when literally all the other characters are shown to be awful people and she's the only one who seems even a little human).
I know some people really hated Rian Johnson because of The Last Jedi, but I actually really liked it (less after Rise of Skywalker because it undid most of it, but still) and I love this movie. They’re even kind of similar if you think about it, in that both of them deconstruct some aspect of themselves: The Last Jedi deconstructs Star Wars by showing realistic outcomes of the franchise’s tropes or subverting expectations based on past movies. Knives Out meanwhile deconstructs the whodunnit by setting it up as a typical one, then showing the answer in the beginning and how the ”killer” tries to cover her tracks and having the eccentric detective seem like a total goofball. Then it turns that around by showing how competent the detective is despite his quirks and revealing that the whole cover-up plot has continued the whodunnit mystery and given the hints to who the real killer was
There's actually a very cheap way to figure out who did it: Apple doesn't allow movie villains to use their devices on screen. Whoever doesn't have one is who did it.
This film is interesting, because the flashbacks are 100% factual, but what the suspects/witnesses are saying is not. For everyone but Marta, they don't necessarily show the perspective of the characters. Rather, they show an objective look at the events - superimposed over their verbal accounts of what happened. Another interesting aspect of this film is that it's a mystery, but you're not trying to figure out whodunnit. You are still given a cast of characters with motives to wish harm on Harlan Thromby, but with the apparent killer revealed early on, the task for the viewer ends up being to make sense of the story. For most of the rest of the film, the story's purpose is unclear until the very end.
My only complaint is that assuming this was set in present time when it was filmed it would be 2019. No one that lives in that type of house with that kind of money and a private security system then would have a security system that records on VHS tapes. It would be a DVR or a cloud storage type of set up.
I got a perfect recommendation the hot animation call Arcane the show critics are calling it a masterpiece. I believe it is this generation's classical story that will be apart of pop culture for now and decades to century.
I wonder if you would have immediately figured out that it was Ransom if you had watched the trailer first. The only reason I wasn't impressed with this film was the trailer, to me, made it really obvious that Ransom was the killer. And every scene about Ransom and every scene he was in just made it more and more obvious that it was him. The Grandma at the window is what locked him in as my number 1 suspect without a doubt which made the will reading scene really interesting the first time watching but the whole film sadly disappointing as I was basically just waiting to be confirmed right. But as time goes on I do enjoy the film more and more. The best thing it has going for it is that at the very least it's entertaining from start to finish.
I don’t know why you would ever watch the trailer for a mystery film like this. I don’t even watch most trailers for any movie I’m interested in seeing.
@@rxbeccarose You need to. This movie owes a lot to it. Same type of vibe but more comedic and campy. Stars Tim Curry, Chrisotpher Lloyd, Madeline Kahn, and Michael McKean among others screenplay co-written by John Landis.
Please never ever buy or rent a Rian Johnson film again. 😅 i bare a grudge against this man for the horrible Star Wars movie "The Last Jedi" he did. 🤨 He must never work again! Ewoks!Assemble! 🦁
@Curtis Murphy "Grow up," he says through tears streaming down his face. "The movie was fine," as he caressed Rians face with one hand, the other, hidden from view. "Good, even to some," as he leaned in for a kiss.
