Thank you! Yes, it is! They don't make them like this anymore. It has Impeccable writing, and a diverse number of characters are all connected to each other in some way. The best character archs, and I don't care people say the ending was perfect. Oh and the music my God LOST wouldn't be LOST without Michael Giacchino! The music is the best ever written for a show. Every character had a theme piece of music, and It was heartfelt on every single level.
This woman appeared in this one episode only and she still has unbelievable chemistry with Richard. Such small details are what make a scene so amazing and meaningful.
It's the emotional aspect that separates Lost from any other mystery show that I have seen, except maybe Dark. Those are the only two that have hit that sweet spot for me.
@@atyehatyeh6257 I was rewatching series 6 on amazon prime and came across this episode it’s been along time since I watched it an I agree mate this episode and the constant are my favourite
Nickname Sawyer simple man. Man of faith. Remember when the smoke torments came to look over his acc. When he arrived shackled on the black Pearl? Remember he is heard mumbling a prayer that begins "Abba..Abba.." and his prayer is in his native tongue ... Smoke torments looks over his account, simply leaves with the sound of WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.. ua-cam.com/video/WwAzJIK1RAQ/v-deo.html ... What I found REALLY Interesting about the scene is the CLOSE UP Of Richards right eye and a love heart shape of his pink capalaries. ..Blu ray viewer here... He was a prayerful man, but prayed for forgiveness from a MAN (as witnessed) before he was to set off to the New World... Richard must not of prayed to God for forgiveness, coz he was receiving smoke torments... WATCH ua-cam.com/video/5HCm0yl1adw/v-deo.html .... As for Ben in that scene,.. you know what a monster he was... he was waiting for his demise, which he knew was coming from his judgement... MORE SMOKE TORMENTS FOR BEN.ua-cam.com/video/wOUhXtqFLPo/v-deo.html What I do not understand is how many did not know Ben was judged by JEHOVAH (GOD ALMIGHTY) You can Hear at 0.32 sec mark "YAHWEH" (How JEHOVAH is spoken in english).. MOST miss it... even the Knock knock knock knock knock sound people DO NOT GET.. Remeber this from scripture " Behold, I stand at the door and knock".
Richard is so peripheral on screen in terms of the narrative and yet his story start to finish was one of the most beautiful, most tragic, most operatic character arcs in the entire series.
This is clearly one of Lost’ best scenes. This episode (Ab Aeterno) broke all of the show’s rules and delivered us a profound connection to Richard’s character. A film can easily be made out of this episode
I like Richard really much, he's one of my favorite characters, and I think that this is one of the most emotional scenes of Lost. Still the best series of the world! ♥ ~
I love Richard's story the most. It's so genuine and filled with pure love. He's just trying to save his wife riding in the rain all night for medicine. He doesn't want anything in life. No blue jeans no cheeseburgers...
I think Nestor Carbonell SHOULD HAVE WON an Emmy or at least a Golden Globe for his performance on this episode... I think his performance was the greatest, the most touching one ever in Lost, I don't care about Michael Emerson or Terry O'Quinn after I have seen Ab Aeterno..
When you understand WHY Richard didn't age, and what he has seen and experienced, you feel a great sense of pity and sympathy for him. You understand the burden he has carried all these many years: ..the failure to save his wife, the accidental taking of a life, the belief that he is condemned, that he will never reunite in the next life with Isabella and that ONLY hell awaits him. You get the sense of torment within him being Jacob's consigliere, and being participant in activities like the purge of the Dharma Initiative.
Who cares about critics, you don't need to reiterate that shit. Lost was beautiful start to finish, all the way through. Including this touching scene of course.
Amazingly done I love how Isabella is looking directly at Richard but Richard looks lost and can't focus on her directly. I real sense that he can't see her.
Perfect, beautiful scene, most particularly the idea that "they're already together" at 2:18. This makes complete sense in light of "The End" which portrays the idea that between life and death, there can be a place where in which there is no time - a place in which someone who died many years ago can somehow already be with you even though you haven't also died yet. She isn't necessarily meaning "they're already together" in this moment, in this scene; moreover, she could be more likely referring to the fact that outside of time and space - the people who are most important to us in our lives are already together in this special "place" between life and death which comes just before whatever you believe comes next... It would be no different if Juliet were to appear to Sawyer, Charlie to Claire or Shannon to Sayid - in their reality in the Sideways they've already found one another again, it's just that the living person hasn't completed their purpose in life yet to be there with them. I think if anyone going through life can hold that belief, it's a really powerful great comfort. Just to know that, in a way, the happy ending that hasn't happened to you yet is already present in a different reality, and that all you have to do is take comfort in knowing it is there, it is there already in some way, and that one day you'll really feel it. That's powerful stuff! Fantastic scene!
In Islam, we believe death is the place between. It conotates well with what you said. We believe that we wait in a "lobby" world until we are revived by God, called for judgement and then step into the world of eternal life. Space and time that apply to our current world may manifest differently in the lobby world, which is of an unknown nature to us now.
I binge-watched this whole series just now I hardly cry watching shows/movies But this was the single scene in Lost that broke me down in tears -- when Isabelle appears!
this really is one of the best scenes in cinema or tv of all time. in itself and in the context of the show itself. I cannot stop watching it. I remember when I first watched it as part of the episode (which is superb) I was in complete awe. it is one of those things you are just thankful it exists - a grand masterpiece. I wish the show producers and the director and actors knew how many of us who love the show, do love this particular scene even more
You can take any TV show made in the last 120 years and I guarantee you lost will be in the top five. Heck I guarantee you in the next 50 years Lost will still be a top five best all-time
@@andrea.ximena7 I don’t know if he could hear her like he could hear Hugo, or how we hear each other. I think it was more something profoundly felt inside of him; knowing what she’s saying and doing without physically seeing, feeling, or hearing. He could spiritually hear/feel her. My biggest point towards that was he no longer needed Hugo’s translations after a moment.
Hugo was always translating whatever she said. Its just that for us viewers, the directors skipped that part, becoz just think of it, hugos additional voice would have decreased the romantic presence between them
A fantastic scene from a fantastic episode from a fantastic show the way the acting and the music intertwine together to create such beauty and emotion gets me this scene and the one in the constant with Desmond and Penny and the phone call in particular
You forgot to include that chilling part where the MiB watches from a distance... and then it cuts to the flashback of MiB vowing to Jacob that he will kill him.
@@kbanghart And Richard's desperation, his inner torment, his anguish over all the things he's seen and done and been party to, in a way MiB shows jus how evil he truly is because he doesn't even bother TRYING to grant Richard's wish for an end to his agony (maybe he knew he couldn't kill Richard).
At 2:25 I like to imagine the way they filmed that was to have her suddenly run away like a crazy person or drop to the ground while the camera passed behind Hurley.
As much flack as season 6 gets, this episode and across the sea are such unique episodes that give us insight on the origins of previously mysterious characters.
I always liked Richard.. but when I saw this eps, i liked him even more but I also felt the most bad for him. He was just trying to save his dying wife and couldn't.. so sad.. then got accused of murdering that douchebag doctor.. Sold into slavery, chained to bottom of a ship that dragged him to the island.. just to spent literally hundreds of years being a slave/servant for Jacob just for it to be all for nothing

Considering it’s like half a century ago
Lol it is from 2010. Richard Alpert spent some time in Venezuela, that’s why he speaks Spanish. A scene that reminded me of ghost (1990)
It's the emotional aspect that separates Lost from any other mystery show that I have seen, except maybe Dark. Those are the only two that have hit that sweet spot for me.
Richard and Desmond.. they’re both motivated by their deep loves for another person.. it’s a shame that they did not appear together on-screen.
My two favorite characters. Especially of the non plane-wreak survivors
This episode, plus the constant is one of my all-time favorites and after 20 years still makes me cry

One of the great scenes in Lost history.
I think the best.
This moment is beautiful. Richard and Hurley are from two different worlds and yet can commune through shared Spanish.
For a long time, Hurley thought he was cursed because he saw dead people. Then Jacob told him he was actually blessed.
The only show that you become so attached to the characters they become family. Heck even the music becomes a character in this show
I like Richard really much, he's one of my favorite characters, and I think that this is one of the most emotional scenes of Lost. Still the best series of the world! ♥ ~

But michael and terry destroyed it too
Yes his acting was amazing in this episode !!!!
no doubt he is good but terry o quinn and emerson are on another level, I see only matthew fox on same level, and hugo actor was better too
@@iamworstgamer hugo actor is not good actor
"It wasn't your fault that I died Ricardo, as much as you wanted to save me, it was my time" - Isabella
That part I already start crying
I could watch this episode anytime just for Richard's incredible acting. What a beautiful actor!
Gotta stop making myself cry with these Lost clips
So true
One of the most heartfelt scenes in all of Lost. One of the greatest shows on television.
I think that Isabella is the one who set Richard free so he can die like a normal men. "You've suffered enough Ricardo..."
When you understand WHY Richard didn't age, and what he has seen and experienced, you feel a great sense of pity and sympathy for him.

This scene is a work of art - the music, filming, acting and script - thank you Lost!!!!!
I so agree!!
No matter what some critics might say, Lost is still one of the best tv shows of all time
It is as emotional as it can get. Especially if you have real life, real love experience. Best series so far.
Lost got a lot of shit in the later seasons from the critics but this..........this is beautiful.
Damn, If I lost my wife and then she came back like this, I don't know if I can handle it.
The critics are assholes....
@@dimnik9186 Right. Who cares what they say? All seasons were great! It was probably too complicated for their little brains lol
Who cares about critics, you don't need to reiterate that shit. Lost was beautiful start to finish, all the way through. Including this touching scene of course.
Just watched this clip 5 years after my original comment and it still absolutely kills me.
It's 2023 and this is still the best episode from all the serie
Agreed I always come back to watch this scene
best episode after the constant with desmond and penny
Nestor Carbonell is such an underrated actor. He pulls this episode off so well.
This was my favourite episode of the entire series. And this scene still makes me cry to this day. So beautiful.

They're not tears. Just allergies okay!
Have he said this quote before? I don't clearly remember
LOL , Me 2
Richard and Isabela is one of the best relationships on Lost, this scene made me cry
Perfect scene Cry, cry, cry for ever.
One of the most intriguing episodes...for a long time we didn't know the history of Richard
So amazing how deep their love was shown at such tight timeline. Literally a few minutes . Heartbreaking
this scene always made me wanna cry.
Richard’s backstory is one of my favorite pieces of television ever and I still cry every time he tries to save Isabella. Great writers and cast.
1 dislike man in black...
Lol!!
I first read this as “1 dislike man was black”
Absolutely beautiful
I'd like to think Hurley was the only one on the island able to speak spanish for Richard to understand, that he was destined to do so, for him
Such a beautiful scene. 😢❤️
Isabella will always be in Richard’s heart.
I love that Hugo stopped translating because Richard started “hearing” her himself

Richard and Isabella should have been in the Church at the end.
Wow you are so right.
Maybe they couldn't get one of the actors for that scene
They werent there because they died 500 years ago, and went to the church back then

Amazing acting by all especially Richard
I was crying during this scene 😭
Best episode of lost by far
Two fantastic actors right there. And Richard is soooo handsome with those dark eyes
5ème fois que je regarde la série et cette scène me donne toujours les même emotions, richard quel brave homme
Hurley is great acting in this scene
I like how all the candidates are suddenly the mysterious special ones like Richard was at first. Lol
one of the best episodes of lost
This, this right here is why Richard wasn’t in the Church at the end. He felt peace and moved on in this moment. All his guilt he has washed away

I was wondering, how long has it been since they last spoke to each other before this?

Gets me every single time :(
I wish I had a love like that. But it just never happened. 25 and still single.
