I was verbally disappointed when Pollack’s decided to cut for no reason. It just feels like a betrayal to shoot scenes with that amount of coverage and not in those masters to keep things interesting and concise.
I feel like the editor dropped the ball on the remake, too: the lines don't feel like they were spoken in the same room. Meanwhile, the actors felt out the pacing perfectly in the original!

Every Frame A Painting video! On Billy Wilder!! Never clicked so fast in my life!!! Only complaint is it was 10 minutes rather than 100. That Sabrina comparison was brutal, and should be taught in every film school.
The sad thing is I’ve worked on a lot of student sets (grad and undergrad) and quite a few of them approached coverage this way. 10 setups for 2 page, 3 person dinner scene. Some schools actually encourage this because it prepares them more for working in television and corporate environments.
@@tatehildyard5332 yep, sigh :( adverts and other corporate media LOVE having 10x the necessary coverage so they can do a rejigged version of whatever campaign a month or two later
Sad thing about that Sabrina remake is that the director was Sydney Pollack who has done some great movies. I guess he just didn´t care and did it for money.
Great video! Fun fact: Billy Wilder asked Saul Bass to design a sign for his office wall that read “How would Lubitsch do it?”, it was kind of a mantra for him
At Lubitsch's funeral, according to legend, one of the mourners stated: "Well, no more Lubitsch" to which another mourner stated "Worse. No more Lubitsch movies."
That kitchen scene in Sabrina is just perfect framing. And when there is the single character movement and the camera pushes in, we can still see all the characters. Genius.
@@jerban8879 Ellis first video is from 2015. Every Frame a Painting had been uploading since 2014. And RLM was making reviews, even though you could kind of see the overlap into video essays here and there but then you'd have to be calling Angry Video Game Nerd an early video essayist. Anyway, EFAP was definitely the first channel to give birth to the modern video essay. These videos still hold up so well after ten years. Which can't be said for a lot of content from back then.
@@kelechi_77 it depends what you mean by essay vs other education I suppose. Channels like Art of The Problem had 30-60 minute videos with similar narration and pacing about computer science and mathematics in 2012. (I thought maybe Rocketjump Film School was around the same time, but that was 2015 so comes after this channel.)
@@kaitlyn__L It's an interesting topic all round, been waiting for years for someone to make a video essay on the first video essay, think it'd be interesting to explore the forerunners.
Dear Tony, with your old videos I learned a lot about making movies, but I also learned that I loved learning about it! Now I am a professional film critic, and I'm still learning from you! Thank you man, your videos mean a lot to me.
It's pretty amazing that when Wilder first came to America in 1934 he didn't speak much English. He and fellow Austro-Hungarian/German émigré Peter Lorre had English night school together. Imagine going from a immigrant in a new country with little knowledge of the local language to one of the greatest screenwriters in that language in less than a decade.
I get the feeling that's partly why he liked working with screenwriting collaborators. Probably a lot of the concepts and overall "construction" as he called it comes from him, but having a partner helps ground him in a more colloquial and natural American English style in the word choices and such
@@blufudgecrispyrice8528 its based on the screenplay of a French film from 1935 called Fanfare of Love which got remade in Germany in 1951 as Fanfares of Love
One of the best directors ever. He packs so much subtlety and nuance into his ostensibly light PG comedies/romcoms. I was absolutely blown away by the examination of Post-War occupied Berlin in A Foreign Affair(1948). He avoids excessively dark cynicism and provides real joyful humour against such difficult subject matter without shying away from it. Couldn't agree more with your Sabrina comparison, the remake felt like a parody of the original. Thanks for the great video!
As a teacher who has been using EFAP videos in my classes since they came out, I can't tell you how excited I am that y'all are back! Thank you so much for your work 🙏
Just want to note that EFAP is also a podcast that mainly discusses film, tv series and video essays. Except instead of Every Frame a Painting it means Every Frame a Pause because they are extreme pedants and often take hours to discuss fairly short media. I don't think you meant them but just want you to know that a misunderstanding can occur since it's in a similar sphere.
As a Wilder nerd, I think one of the things that's so great about his scripts is that he follows the Chekhov's gun rule so perfectly. Everything is used. Every gun that is loaded goes off in several ways. If something needs to happen, he sets it up in act 1. They aren't just funny, but elegantly efficient.
Clicked on this immediately as if my son’s life depended on it. So glad you guys are back. And Wilder is one of my heroes. Sunset Blvd. is a masterpiece.
Today is my birthday. I haven't been feeling very well, but what better gift than a video of you and on top of that about this genius. Thank you very much for the gift.
We share the same last name so let me assume we're somehow distant cousins, hope you had a great birthday cousin Ignacio! Glad you got such a great gift and we're all able to enjoy it as well.
Billy Wilder is the true master of the form. He didn't any crazy show-off shots to tell his story. He shot the emotion, and refused to let anything obscure it.
I always loved his films I’d seen, also loved The Apartment yet somehow missed it was also him! (Probably as I was discussing the themes so much with my maw, it’s her favourite film.) Masterful scene construction every time.
What surprises me the most is how your writing style hasn't changed a bit in all these years. It's like you guys have made your last video back in 2016, took a pause of a few weeks and got back on making these videos the same way as always. That is something which can be found only in those who have a clear vision of things, such as you do with cinema. Bravo, Taylor and Tony!
I am thrilled there’s new Every Frame A Painting videos!! I’m always exposed to new directors through this channel and it’s so exciting to have old-but-new-to-me films to watch! The understanding of the craft that goes into filmmaking is so elegantly on display, it’s a joy to see!
Goddammit, I had a total brain fart while making the titles. Yes, you're totally right, Diamond wrote it, Wilder staged it in honour of him after his passing. I don't know what happened, we literally had Volker Schlöndorff introducing it in an older edit. Pfft. Too tired.
I just recently watched Sunset Boulevard and The Apartment back to back and was completely dazzled by what great films they were. Getting to watch an essay about Billy Wilder now feels like the cherry on top!
Billy has so many classics it's ridiculous... one of the GOATs! I've watched Sunset Blvd, Double Indemnity, The Apartment, Stalag 17 & more _dozens_ of times. And we're so glad you're back ❤ So well produced, your videos, going back years!
10 years ago i started film school and the professor used this channel to teach us the language of film grammar. i showed my GF this channel two days ago and BOOM here we are. thanks for coming back man
Thank you for being back! There is nobody quite like you on UA-cam or anywhere else. I was searching for alternatives when you stopped and found many other great channels discussing movies, but none look at them from the same angle quite and explain it so visually appealing like you. So really, thank you so much for being back!
I know you're back for just a short time but please keep this channel alive even if it's just a post once a year. You really stand apart from everyone else on yt as of what it has come to be nowadays
So glad this channel is back!!! One of my best professor’s I ever had introduced me to your videos during an Intro to Mass Media class over a decade ago now!!!
Holy shit, he's back, i haven't checked on this channel in years, i am legitamately tearing up, his videos were a welcome distraction during a very dark part in my life.
The difference between these and most, most other video essays on UA-cam is that they're not just about something someone likes a lot, seasoned with some shallow bits of information. These here give an actual insight into how things work/are done, and I missed that so much.
What's really amazing is that, even after all these year, Wilder's movies still holds up very well compared to modern style cinema: its masterful sense of pace and perfect casting feel forever imprinted on film.
Probably been said already in the comments, but so great to hear your voice again. Thanks so much for gifting us more of these fun, informative videos.
Loving your comeback brotha! Thank you for your hard work! You're one of my favorite creators on youtube, you're the best at conveying good art in movies. You've lent me a far deeper understanding in film over my basic uni course.
I was just thinking of this channel today, and the phrase/name of the channel, and there is a new video. I am so glad I did, this was very unexpected and very welcome. Happy to see a new upload.
Thank you so much for doing a video on one of my all-time favorites. I love Wilder's work and loved the video. So glad you're back, keep up the great work.
Wonderful to have you back! I've been so in love with Wilder's (& Diamond's) stories and dialogue that I'd overlooked the perfection of his direction. Thank you. Thanks also for the shot from Fedora, which I've never forgotten from the time I saw it on it's initial run in theaters.

Reading Wilder's scripts are always such a delicious treat, especially when you see how he decided to block everything in the scene for the final cut. The Apartment is one of my all-time favorite films, but Double Indemnity has such a fun wit to its screenplay; I love revisiting both of them every chance that I get. Also, if you want an awesome double-feature, I highly recommend watching Ace of the Hole and then following it up with Charles Laughton's Night of the Hunter. The first movie and first half of the second film will absolutely crush you, but the last half of Hunter is a refreshing tonic that restores some of the hope in humanity you may have lost earlier on.
Man, what a fabulous breakdown, articulating things I've sort of known but never known how to say, perfectly. (Also, man "Ace in the Hole" is criminally underrated) Welcome back you beautiful bastards
the comparison of the two versions of Sabrina is so simply educational. Wilder's blocking and emphasis on script is so great

Yes. I have reviewed 3 times in a row already. This is one of the best channels, always has been.
The sad thing is I’ve worked on a lot of student sets (grad and undergrad) and quite a few of them approached coverage this way. 10 setups for 2 page, 3 person dinner scene. Some schools actually encourage this because it prepares them more for working in television and corporate environments.
