Greeting from Germany to all over the world, especially the brave brothers and sisters in the arab world!!

Why does it feel like every year this film becomes terrifyingly more relevant.
Especially in the face of COVID-19.

Because it is.

Edit: I just quoted a movie and now I have all these political comments I hardly understand. 😐

Preston Garvey How is it stolen
Scorpionstrike7 same comment was posted before this one on another video
Preston Garvey Oh is that a bad thing? 😅
Scorpionstrike7 well yeah it means you’re boring and can’t come up with anything else
This may end up being the most important movie in modern times.
Obviusly
and the graphic novel version too, published in 1982.
@@spiderjerusalem4009 the graphic novel's great, but it hasn't reached nearly as many people as the movie has, simply due to the fact that far more people have seen the movie than read the novel.
@@back2back379 not only that. The message in the movie is different form the message in the graphic novel. The movie presents V as an anti-hero, while in the graphic novel he's an anti-villain at best. Also, the political message in the movie is one that shouts neo-liberalism, while the one in the graphic novel is full blown anarchy, because Alan Moore defended and still believes that anarchy is the perfect social system, because there are no rules in anarchy. Not saying the movie is worst than the graphic novel, but its message is slightly different (probably because the movie is also a critic to the way the world was during the Iraquian war, and the graphic novel criticizes the time during which Margaret Thatcher was prime minister of the UK).
Bullshit, this movie defends anarchy.
What I absolutely love about this is the symbolism.
Look here:
4:39 The killed gay man with the Quran in his home.
4:41 The little girl that was shot and killed.
4:44 The lesbian couple that was taken to the concetration camp and killed.
Those who die for something (Revolutionaries, non-conformists, soldiers etc.) live through symbols. In this case the symbol was V's mask. In other cases it's a flag,an anthem, a song,a poem, a book. Now here's the awesome part, this movie takes this whole thing a step further suggesting that those who sacrificed themselves for a cause, (Willingly or otherwise.) walk amongst those who still fight and struggle.
Beautiful.
The Riddler I don’t think the little girl was actually shot, it was just a premonition that filtch was having when he visited Lark Hill
@@themusicmaster1077 No seh probably was, we were just hearing Finch's thoughts and then we actually saw that his thoughts were right. Finch just gave a vague explanation as to what could happen and we see how hist thoughts actually play out while hes speaking them.

It's not even considered a protest but a revolution.
It wasn’t a protest that changed things, it was when the tyrants were killed
Thank god he said "Stand down". Hell, he's one of the heroes of the movie IMO
It was the most logical thing, I mean you can't shoot the very people you are trying to protect I mean some of the people in the vendetta masks could potentially be one of the soldier's family members.
+Rose Quartz The logical thing is to give the order to start shooting. He didn't. He definitely is one of the heroes.
+gagino i haven't watched the movie but, why?
+Ricky Ray In real life, all of the people there will be shot, trampled, gassed or bombed. Even in the US, UK, etc they would charge in with riot gear, tear gas and disperse the crowd. In the second world countries, all of the soldiers would fire until every single person in the crowd is dead, tanks will come in, helicopters will shoot them down. I am sure a Dictator would not mind killing 90% of its population to remain in power. The only problem I see is that some of the soldiers family members will be in the crowd, but I am pretty sure they won't care. They will not care if they masscared their entire population, heck it is already happening now. That is why it is just a movie, and fiction.
+Ricky Ray And, in fact, showed he went to great lengths to get orders
Checked with Command - no reply
Checked with the Party Leader - no reply
Checked with the Commander in Chief - no reply
After going up the chain of command, he decided to act on his own authority - a very nice touch that people rarely notice
"The hate of men will pass, and dictators die. And the power they took will return to the people. And as long as men die, liberty will never perish."
King's and tyrants will come and go but as the common folk have always known we will stay after any ruler has had their day

Weird question for you: 4:39 ; I swear Steven's character was killed...?
So was the girl after him in the video
Most or all of those shown in the crowd are the dead who died at different points in the movie -- including Hugo Weaving.
I never understood why the House of Parliament had to be blown up though. That message was too anarchistic for my taste. The House of Parliament didnt ONLY represent the fascist government, it represented Old England way before that as it was from the 17th century, yes?
So.. I don't understand why V did not just plan a great showcase of fireworks to demonstrate that the people could now walk all over the military, straigt up to the House of Parliament and throw a party. And simultaenously demonstrate that the fascist government had gotten powerless to resist it.
Art now imitates fact. History is being a made.

To be in an explosion what demolishes parliament?
A bunch of people in black and wearing the same mask in a city while your favorite music is playing and a government building is exploded along with your body?
You ever notice the people in the crowd are those who have died during the film
yeah, I think its to represent that justice was delivered for those who were victims of the system (the lovers killed in the prison), those who tried to point out the flaws of the system and change it through non violent means (eve's parents and stephen frys character) and those who rebelled against the system (the little girl). the demasking scene for some reason is the bit that always makes me well up, especially to the lesbian couple and both parents of eve and the little girl.
ScatterBrainUK I've always thought it to represent not only justice, but the point that ideas are bulletproof. An shared idea cannot simply die with the deaths of few. This scene was quite symbolic.

i think there will be a revolution starting from that time line.... look what's happening now... Brexit and the politicians absolutely ignoring the public votes.
9 more years now
It's looking a lot like the USA
@@RealD8 How? The current administration is deregulating and cutting taxes. In order to have a "fascist" government they need to be controlling you or trying to control you. Saying "we don't want to tax you at an exorbitant rate to give you universal healthcare that half the country don't wants" is not fascism, in fact it's the opposite. Freedom is freedom FROM government, not begging the government for rights that you ALREADY had. Power corrupts, so why give them any power? Why allow them to control anything at all? They've done a shitty job at everything except for war. So don't let them do anything except for the occasional (necessary only preferably) war.
4:39 Anyone catch it? Those were the people that DIED in the movie. Evy's friend, the little girl who was shot, and the lady with the roses and her lover
I knew it! I only thought it was the little girl with the glasses. I think she has some sort of symbolism... She shows up in a lot of scenes, but isn't really a character.
She didn't die, she only died in what Finch felt would happen.
They represent ideas, because ideas... Cannnot be killed
Exaactly, they´re the representation of what V fight for
Dylan Trimble nope she really died. That was the trigger for the people to revolt against the goverment (and many other things ofc).
After the smoke cleared a single question was raised, to which no one could answer. "How do we prevent this happening again?"
+Barney Collington
I find it quite stupid, destroying historical buildings. Would be better just murdering gouvernement.
+The sun is bright destroying that building showed hope, it showed everything wrong with what was going on, plus it was currupt the parliament literally translates into French as a place to speak, which btw no one had the right to. Killing them would just allow someone else to come into power, if they really wanted freedom they had to do it them selfs,
+The sun is bright
Read the book. Some of that also happens.

Makes little sense, its not like after destroying building the government will magically change and there won't be another asshole ruling after.

You wanna know the crazy thing. Had V sent his broadcast INTERNATIONALLY, he could've possibly united the ENTIRE world. He already united Britain, as we can see here. IMAGINE what he could've done if that message was international.
It's not possible, because different countries have different conditions, some of them happy with their governments
@Szolnoki diliház Truth is stranger than fiction.
The beautiful part is his message is international. I am reading this from Australia in 2021. It's nearly November the 5th
You know to question your theory you might be right but remember that the goverment of England in the movie was so corrupt and full of shit they literally made up lies on the news to the point that people question their bullshit (it’s implied bunch of times during the movie). I have a theory that maybe the US in the film wasn’t in a civil War or was not a run down version of the USSR (as implied in the beginning of the film). But you’re right the message internationally would have made a great example
@Mazda Tranyo Cabrio It doesn't matter if it's fiction. There's no point trying to make that claim in this subject.

"Treason doth never prosper.. what's the reason? For if it prosper, none dare call it treason."
Love this climax/conclusion - so many realistic parallels to our modern world - a society kept busy and distracted from solving problems imposed on them by an industrial elite which maintains injustice for most, and never ending power and prosperity for themselves - comes to a sudden implosion when everyone finally says "enough"!
Judging by all the brainwashes millenials and gen Z'ers that do nothing but watch youtube gaming videos, i'd say we're totally fucked.
Hong Kong protesters promise that when the day is won and freedom and democracy is granted in Hong Kong, they will all do the same!
They will gather in front of the equivalent of their Parliament wearing gas masks and helmets still hiding their faces - then simultaneously take them off to reveal to each other the faces of those who fought so hard for victory. One day Hong Kong, one day.

This film could've premiered last week and nobody would've thought that it was made 17 years ago. The people on theaters would've thought that it was made based on what happened in the last 2-3 years.
Amazing movie.
There is a bit of a hidden meaning here. The score is Tchaikovsky's "1812 overture". But the "1812 overture" celebrates the victory of Tzarist Russia over Napoleon Bonaparte. It is composed so that the French revolutionary anthem "La Marseillaise" is slowly being overpowered by the Russian anthem "God save the Tzar", until at the end you can here nothing but the Russian anthem. And what this actually means is that what we're seeing at the finale of "V for Vendetta" isn't a rebirth of democracy, but the restoration of monarchy. Very clever.
Well, neither France nor Russia were democracies at that time (1812). Nothing was really conquered and subsequently restored. So that analogy doesn't work very well. I think it works better if you think that Russia represents a "free" country that resisted the conquering Imperialism of Bonaparte.
I am not referring to the 1812 war. I'm referring specifically to the music piece which juxtaposes Tzarist anthem with a revolutionary anthem, and Tzarist anthem prevails.
You can see it in Russia today, by the way - the revolution of 1991 resulted in the restoration of Tzarism (yes, Putin is a Tzar for all means and purposes).
Noel Down The music piece is about the 1812 war. The leitmotif that you mentioned represents the invasion of Russia. The french anthem (La Marseillaise) in the music piece represents Napoleon's french army (not a revolutionary force but an imperialistic force) advancing towards Moscow and eventually being defeated by the Russian forces (represented by the melody of God save the Tsar).
Carlos Fernandes We can argue about history to no end. I could tell you that the French Empire was endlessly more free than Tzarist Russia. That had Napoleon conquered Russia he would've freed the serfs (effectively slaves) 50 years earlier than the Russians did. Or I could tell you that La Marseillaise was not even the French anthem during the Napoleonic wars, its use was an intentional anachronism by Tchaikovsky. Instead, just listen to the music as detached from the supposed historical context. All it is, is "God save the Tzar" vs. "O Liberty, can man resign thee, Once having felt thy generous flame". And the Tzar wins.
very well said, my friend. I've played this overture before in my own orchestra but never really understood the full meaning of it. but what I know is that is that from the music itself it symbolizes something triumphant, some sort of grand event that has resulted in significant change. the music went perfectly well with the beautiful revolution that took place in this scene. that is what truly fascinated me about this movie.

11 years and this scene still gives me first the chills from the start of the song to the explosion and then the feels and tears for the demasking scene. just gives me hope one day we can all stand united against hate, be it gender, race, sexuality or religion.
It's interesting the choice of words the soldiers use. They call the people approaching them "enemies". When all they are citizens in masks. It shows how easily the situation can turn people into enemies of the state.
I believe that is the turning point for any state - when its army stands against its own people.
They are soldiers, what are they supposed to call them?
Yet it didn’t work. Because they didn’t shoot. They knew it was their people.
Imagine living your life and enlisting to protect your people, raised and trained to give your life to keep your people safe, only to end up aiming your gun at the very people you’ve sworn to protect.
You notice the soldiers glancing at one another. That’s why.
Remember Remember the fifth of November
Hugo Weaving is such a fantastic actor... His performances in the Matrix movies and V for Vendetta are unparalleled in my opinion.
And this is getting true, finally.

@sebastian garcia yeh that structure has been part of our country for centuries it really was painful to see it blow up in the film

It will never happen as long as there is a structure by which some people have power over others, and power structures will not end until people stop believing in them.
This film told us our future
*Life imitates Art.*
If you take a good look at that crowd you might find some familiar faces from the film. What an amazing message. It was just so...artistically done.
I just want to point out for those unaware- Anarchy does NOT mean chaos or lawlessness, it simply is a rejection of *unjust* hierarchy.
Anarchists still want laws- just democratically defined laws. They’re still okay with some hierarchy, as long as that hierarchy can be justified as necessary.
V, and then also Evey, were anarchists. Anarchism is against unjust hierarchies- which includes social ones. So against racism, sexism, homophobia etc. All the anarchists I’ve met are lovely people. And they genuinely do want a better world for everyone.
This has to be one of the most beautiful endings in cinema history. The music swelling to a crescendo as the explosion occurs, and the crowd removing their hat and masks, punctuating how V is everyone, and everyone is V.
To those who read this: A million well meaning people can accomplish nothing if they cannot propose an alternative. If and when the government falls, make sure you can answer the important questions (Starting with "How do you prevent corruption")
This was a beautiful movie. From start to finish, glad I watched it in Theatres.

It's hardly similar to the George Floyd riot at all--because nothing's changed.

"....How did this happen? Whose to blame? Well certainly there are those who are more responsible than others and *they will be held accountable* but again truth be told if your looking for the guilty, *You need only look into a mirror*."
With so many people around the world pointing fingers at the government or at various politicians and political parties. Those who use this film as an example of the wrongs of our governments always fail to understand or rather choose to ignore the most important scene in the entire movie. The above quote is not a twisted reflection of our world but is in fact an absolute truth! If people really wanted to change our world for the better then they would take a stand. It doesn't matter where you are from the people of a country outnumber the government by *millions*. You don't need bloodshed or anarchy to create a better world. All you have to do is say *NO*!
The world didn't become this way because of any political agenda. The reason the world became a darkened nightmare full of war, death, chaos and poverty is clear. BECAUSE WE LET IT FUCKING HAPPEN! We sat on our fucking arses and let the greedy, the corrupt and megalomaniacal to grind our skulls into the earth.
Now there are few who wish to stand up for what they believe in. The majority of the population are too scared to take a stand due to rampant fear mongering. We don't fear for our lives HAHAHAHA NO! We fear the loss of our jobs, our homes, our pensions. However the things we hold most dear, the things we fear for the most, the things that we cannot lose under any circumstance.....are thus. Your internet connection, your reality tv and soap opera's, your phone, your computer, your games console. This is what we fear to lose the most?! Not our future, the well fare of our children or the safety of friend and family a like? We instead fear the loss of all of our materialistic BULLSHIT!? ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING?!
You can deny it all you want but how many times have you said or thought that "I can't live without my phone/xbox/pc/tv shows."
When was the last time you said you couldn't live without your friends or your family.
It makes me fucking sick just thinking about it!
....but who am I to point fingers....when I myself am no better.
It only takes one to create a spark but others *must* kindle the flame.
Perhaps this post will go ignored and be consigned to the depths of the youtube comments section, perhaps it will generate a thousand responses of idiocy and foolishness. But....there is always the chance that someone will read this tirade and decide to take a stand. That someone will understand that the world is broken and perhaps they will choose to create the spark that is so desperately needed...........
The only thing you will ever be able to control in this world is yourself. So if you want to create a better world, do it by creating a better self.
You are right. People are good at pointing fingers, at finding someone to blame. But we need only look into a mirror.
Great text! 3 months after writing this hope you keep the motivation.
Awesome comment. Thank you for talking some sense. Yes, world can be a better place only if we could change ourselves. I aspire to become a blog writer some day and try to change the perspective of my readers.
"Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning and, for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth."
Truth

The ending was emotional for me. Then again, I get teary eyed when I see dolphins and the setting sun. :'(

I've seen this masterpiece like 30 times, and I never noticed exactly who was in the crowd. Wow, just wow. Brilliant.
Weaving should have been there without make-up.
