- Misery is a 1990 American psychological horror-thriller film directed by Rob Reiner, with a screenplay by William Goldman, based off of Stephen King's 1987 novel of the same name. The film follows Paul Sheldon (James Caan) the author of a successful series of Victorian romantic drama novels, who is badly injured in a car wreck while returning to his home in New York City from rural Colorado. He is rescued from the crash by Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates), a retired nurse and a dedicated fan of Paul's novels, who takes him to her home to recuperate. However, when Annie reacts violently to the revelation that the novels' main character, Misery Chastain, will be killed off in the series, Paul soon realizes that Annie is dangerously mentally disturbed, and must find a way to escape her home, with death lurking around every corner.
Misery was released in the United States on November 30, 1990; it was a box office success, grossing $61.3 million against a $20 million budget, and was critically praised, with Bates' performance receiving acclaim from critics. At the 63rd Academy Awards, Bates won the Oscar for Best Actress, making Misery the only film adaptation of a King novel to win an Academy Award. King praised the adaptation, calling it one of his top ten favorite film adaptations. Misery was the first King film adaptation to star Bates in a leading role; she would later perform as the title character in Taylor Hackford's 1995 adaptation of Dolores Claiborne (1992), which also drew praise from critics.
In this scene, Sheriff Buster of Silver Creek, Colorado, becomes suspicious of Annie after learning that the local shopkeeper has sold Annie a large supply of typing paper. He pays her a visit, where she warmly greets him, having knocked Paul out with a sedative and trapped him in the basement. He searches the house and finds nearly no evidence of Paul's presence, and prepares to leave, but Paul makes a noise in the basement; when Buster finds the now-conscious Paul, Annie kills him with a double-barreled shotgun and attempts to incapacitate Paul for her planned murder-suicide, but he dissuades her by agreeing to her plans on the condition that she allow him to finish the novel. She returns his wheelchair and leaves to prepare him a meal.

In the book the Sheriff is not the sheriff, but a very young cop who has a picture of Paul. Paul is still in his room while the cop is outside, so to get his attention he throws an ash tray out the window. Annie murders him in a very gruesome way, stabbing him with a piece of wood before running him over with a lawnmower. Throughout the story, more cops come, but Paul does not try to get their attention because over time he decides he wants to kill Annie himself.
It was brutal in the book lol
The books murder scene was absolutely horrendous 🤢🤢
Why did the movie had so many diffences than in the book though?
She treated that boy like a push pin.
@@antonm7191 the books are always better and give much more detail
The manic phases, depressive episodes, blackouts, rage attacks, confused thinking...Misery is the ultimate guide to anyone interested in studying psychology, Annie Wilkes is the go to guide to mental illness at it's most extreme, and Kathy Bates does an uncanny impression of someone ultimately detached from other peoples' emotions and needs.
Thank you from seeing it in this perspective!! I want to go into psychology and these movies give me a glimpse of the kinds of people in this world i.e psychopathy, socio… etc..
Not necessarily... see she has what's called "Celebrity Obsessidity"... which is actually a real disease but very rare. What she sufferers is a squisofranic thing which is real and very scary. I'm not a Psychiatrist but I've been diagnosed borderline squisofranic so I know a little bit about disease. It's a disease that takes over the brain. I personally do not believe that I am despite what they tell me. HELL NO I'm no Annie Wilkes😂 but the point I'm getting at is there is different types of squisofrina, and some are way worse than others. And it's not meant to be taken lightly!
No. This is a writer's interpretation filtered through a director's ideas and an actor's portrayal. Not exactly a case study. Movies will twist your understanding of true mental illness. Reality, in a lot of ways, is stranger than fiction.
she's just evil, you skrink types only end up targeting innocent people
@@markarmendariz2580 check out the movie Sunshine. It's about grown sisters and their perfect lives that aren't so perfect. It's a very disturbing film.. but Requiem for A Dream is my favorite fckd up movie.. it shows all types of addictions in all types of people. One of the best movies made.
Ive been clean now 16 months now after 13 years.. never been sober longer than a day since I was a teen. Im glad I left that life behind but I still love watching those movies and Basketball Diaries but everyone has seen that. ❤
RIP Richard Farnsworth (September 1, 1920 - October 6, 2000), aged 80
And
RIP James Caan (March 26, 1940 - July 6, 2022), aged 82
You both will be remembered as legends.
RIP legends 😔
He died on my birthday what a damn shame
@@ozairyahya3438Yeah. Both were unexpected.
Feel bad for this guy, he was actually trying to do his job. When I first watched this I thought he'd be the kind of cop that doesn't give a damn about their job.
And they made him and his wife so damn cute and likable throughout the film...I saw this in the theater and this was a shocking moment for the packed crowd...just added to us all rooting for Paul to smash her face in.
As heartbreaking as his death was, his visit saved Paul, not just because he could get the lighter fluid but because police investigation following Buster's absence would inevitably lead to Annie's house, had he just killed her with nobody knowing where he is, he would have certainly died. Of course Buster could have been more careful... but there had to be a climactic fight between Annie and Paul.
Paul could of healed in that warm house and he had enough food stored.
@@Jl-lq5en no he would have been done for
quantic dream needs to remake that scene for PS5!
It’s been years since I seen this. Kathy Bates gave the most incredible performance in this film.
Annie and her "shrine" to Paul Sheldon definitely puts up a red flag for the sheriff. He then noticed all of the nursing/clinical supplies on the shelves adjacent to the door as he was leaving Annie's "writing" room makes the sheriff all the more suspicious. He knows that Annie is too cool and calculated in her persona. Smart man for not drinking the hot cocoa!
Some have suggested that Annie intended to poison the sheriff with the hot cocoa. I don't think so because it was never her intention to kill the sheriff and bring attention to her home and reveal that she kidnapped Paul. I think she just tried to make things even more innocent by being a good host and offering a beverage to her guest.
She wanted to die with him lol, to secure her win lol ..... now nobody could take her dream man away from her ever..... scary shit 😳
I try and I try but I can never do it quite like him LMMFAO!!!
Wouldn’t let big Momma Cas make me no coa coa !
His face at 5:53 says it all
Imagine having to crawl over the dead Sheriff with broken legs up a flight of narrow stairs... Just to face the person who wants to murder you...
So true
Such a great likable character. Hated that he got killed.
How much? 🤨
@bernd_das_brot6911 if it's as much as i did.....then alot
Makes me wonder what goes on in Stephen King's head. Truly a great author. Left me terrified
Stephen King asked where he got his inspiration "I got a boy's heart - in a jar on my desk."
Ahhh he's a bit overrated. All his stories are the same.. some crazy novelist in a cabin upstate kills his or her family..lol...his best is Carrie and firestarter👍🏻
@@ProfessorKenneth the adaptations of his works are honestly better than his work itself
He was a great author.
@@wifi961 he's a predator
The Sheriff and his wife are my favourite characters in this film. I love the sarcastic banter between them!
We have to develop a sense of trust Says the woman who smashed his ankles
😅😂
Ikr
0:38 scary as hell. Annie doesn't give a shit that Paul has a daughter he's missing, an entire life somewhere else with other people. He's hers now. She had that syringe pre-loaded for such an event.
Kathy bates is really one of the greatest actresses ever her composure in this scene really gives a good example of her great sense of the role she portrays
I'd never want to see a remake
@@Alexa-eo4tf i pray to god no one does that. it's enough hollywood allowed a remake Hitchcock's Psycho, which was a complete disaster. i swear after i saw the remake of that it hurt my brain so bad i stopped going to movies for about a year. i hate when some director or studio boss gets an idea in his head to do a backstory on the main characters, or just do a complete remake of an incredible film and recast the parts with "today's" actors. to me certain movies shouldn't be touched, and this is one of them. this movie is perfect as is.
@@Alexa-eo4tf i pray to god no one does that. But hollywood is always recycling movies because they're running out of ideas. it's enough Hollywood allowed a remake Hitchcock's Psycho, which, in my own opinion, was a complete disaster. i swear after i saw the remake of that it hurt my brain so bad i stopped going to movies for a year. i mean they just copied the original movie shot for shot and line for line. i hate when some director or movie studio boss gets an idea in his head to do a backstory on the main characters, or just do a complete remake of an incredible film and recast the parts with "today's" actors. to me certain movies shouldn't be touched, and this is one of them. this movie is perfect as is.
I'd only like a remake if it were more accurate to the book, but this is great either way
My legs! Now I'm gonna have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair!
No you’re not.. BOOM!
Family Guy haha
Alright stewie the book is done can I go now ?
@@ethanellis2474 you think im stupid?
@@rotta4667 if I let you go you'll just run straight to the police
The sheriff deserved justice!!!
She was trying to poison the sheriff!
I agree...he was smart enough to think that...but unfortunately......😫
Any random person wouldn't trust that landwhale.
Lead poison
@@senortittywiggles8713 Or rat poison.
It's interesting theory but it would be illogical to poison him and draw police's attention to herself when it seemed he didn't notice anything suspicious and was about to leave without discovering that Sheldon is there.
All those other emotions Annie displayed throughout the movie up until this point. Anger. Giddiness. Sadness. Pain. Blood Boiling Rage.
But her reaction to brutually killing Buster?
_Nothing. Absolutely Nothing But Cold Determination._
It shows that Annie is comfortable with violence. It's not a big deal to her.
Now James Caan & Richard Farnsworth are in paradise together.
The music, the acting, the impeccable delivery of lines, the perfect actors, the scenery, the tension. Everything in this movie was done really well
I realize this is a movie... But the Sheriff must have noticed something was off about this lady.
He did. That is why he looked around. He didn't believe a word of this.
I think he initially thought she was just nuts.
@AR - 09ZZ 704501 Heart Lake SS I see
He basically figures it out beforehand, with the Misery quote and her past. He can’t prove it tho that’s why he’s looking around
He was probably aware of her being under investigation for the infant deaths. It made the news.
In the book, a couple of deputies come to interview Annie in her home. The book specifies that both cops were eyeing her suspiciously the whole time. They knew who she was.
They just never would have figured she would hold an famed author hostage.
Cathy Bates made me afraid of fat nice homely women.
Right😭😭
Lol i can't 😅🤣😂
True
I don’t trust my English teacher anymore 💀
Kathy*
As brilliant as the sheriff is to figure out that she was probably holding him hostage, I always found it foolish of him by tipping his hand by asking about Paul Sheldon right off the bat. Of course she's not going to divulge any information as far as his where abouts. I think that part could have been written better in the movie.
Not really. He had to tell the truth why he was there. He can't start with a lie and then work it into looking for Paul. And for all he knows she's a normal person living on the outskirts.
@@SlickArmor He played it poorly
@@2taggs2 how long have you been a cop again?
@jonathanbirch2022 anyone who starts off with "lol" is immediately dismissed.
5:39 Love the bait and switch with us thinking this is where she kills him. Followed by the false sense of security of him about to leave, only for him to haphazardly discover the truth by luck despite him thoroughly trying to until this point. And only finally then she kills him. Great storytelling.
3:44 there’s no chair in the writing room. Think Buster picked up on this? I think it’s why he declined the cocoa.
6:49 Forget the hobbling scene, that was my buddy's favorite part
knocked the feathers out his coat i know shouldn't laugh but the actor response to getting shot was so funny
Buster was my favourite character in this movie ….😢
What is creepy is Richard Farnsworth, 80, an actor who had terminal cancer during the filming of "The Straight Story," a movie that earned him an Oscar nomination for best actor, died Oct. 6 at his New Mexico ranch of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
How 😢
I love how 0:44 foreshadows that, in a fair fight, even without his legs, Paul is capable of holding his own against Annie. This makes the final fight scene, which happens right after this scene, much more believable.
I swear he knew she was up to something, can just tell by how he looks at her.
You can tell by the way he's walking through the house
Yeah, it's made pretty obvious that he is suspicious of her. The way he's walking through the house, the way he waited until she was out of sight to head upstairs, declining to drink the hot cocoa, etc.
I would not drink anything that banshee would give me.
Always call for back-up!
I thought a banshee was a gta car
Read a book or go outside @@chrisallie9960
The cop should have come in with his colleagues and not alone
i read somewhere they finally just GAVE him the oscar after the 5th take of the BLAST to the back🤯
He didn't get an Oscar.
Liar
You could tell she would have laced the cocoa enough to kill or knockout Buster long enough for her to do away with Paul and herself.
She literally blew his back out.
I still hate this scene I liked the sheriff
Good thing he didn't drink the cocoa because she might have put poison in it.
He prolly gets his cocoa from Starbucks.🤣🤣🤣
The sheriff's death was so funny " Mr. Sheldon?" Boom! Haha 6:47
Your horrible 😢
He shouldn't have gone in alone should have had back up
Maybe he was about to return with backup but that noise made him rush to check alone what is happening
He was probably going to return with a search warrant until he heard that noise
0:34 pretty sure that was discord.
Lmao
like the Discord app? i'm confused, wdym lol
@@susangoth9199 ye it was the discord notification sound lol
@@Abraham-Kaykski-Steinberg oh yeah thanks sorry and what's funny is that i'm on discord and i thought someone messaged me
Probably one of King's best books-to-film, as most of the movies from his books always had a low-budget feel to them, in my opinion.
I heard a Discord notification. Made me think that someone messaged me.
La mente umana "dipinta" in tutte le sue "sfaccettature"...un vero capolavoro firmato ✍️ Stephen King 🔥 RIP JAMES CAAN 💔
Rip the main character
RIP James Caan.
Sheriff should've had his hot cocoa
And he would be tired as fuck 3 minutes after drinking it
Nope she probably spiked his cocoa with something
God, I love this movie.
🎶Annie shot the Sheriff but didn't shoot the Deputy.🎶
I Love this movie - one of my favorites. I do "nit-pick" over things though. She had just smashed his ankles with the "hobbling" scene -- if you notice, when Paul looks out the window, he has no bandages on his feet (and they look to be in tact).
He had to be hers at all cost, someone with that mentality is dangerous friend.
I wonder what kind of kinky shit she wanted to do to him in that basement 🤔
@@hollowasthe0ingod502 Ok?.... That doesn't explain the obvious continuity problem.
She's insanely in love and incapable of letting go??
@@hollowasthe0ingod502 No. It's a continuity error.
This scene is like Arbogast's visit to the Bates Motel in Psycho.
Yes, it was.
Learnt from many films to not expect the cops turning up usually ends badly for the cop, although like here they may indirectly save the day at a later point by their actions
The sheriff's death makes me cry.
The sheriff had no clue that he was going to be shot to death.
6:50 oh shit
Buster: Mr. Sheldon?
I literally yelled "no!" outloud when the sheriff got shot
She was the Wikipedia of the 90's lol 2:03
The foot scene made me cringe, but when I first saw this scene my whole body exploded as I screamed “NO! WHAT THE F***?!”
The book goes into more detail about these horrors and Annie Wilkes is much scarier in the book
I remember this movie when I was a kid, this lady and the girl from single white female was neck to neck with Jason and Michael Myers, this is some scary shit
1:02 When my dog barks too much outside and my mom has to bring her in
Mr. Sheldon? POW! It probably shouldn't, but that part makes me laugh every time I watch it. 😂
She treats this dude like a favorite Teddy bear (poor Paul)
creepy movie and great at the same time
Do you have the complete movie in fullscreen 4:3?
Wtf was the sheriff thinking when he saw Paul in the basement before he got shot? "Dis crazy bitch actually got him in da basement!"
6:51.
bruh after watching this, i realized how good lizzy caplain played in the new castle rock series. i mean the talking style was almost the same.
I once had a psychotic chick obsessed with me..I had 100 missed calls from her in 1 day and endless calls not to mention having to change my phone number 5 times
That's insane.
Damn buddy - i had one too - she wrote me 30 page "songs" that didn't rhyme...don't think with the little head...it can get you in trouble. She would call me from across my condo, parked in the gas station to see if I'd lie about being home. Creepy shit - I'm so lucky I shook her.
I had an ex girlfriend waiting in my shed at 3am to catch me with another girl and she did
But that still wouldn't get rid of her
That sounds creepy ,you are lucky your OK after a scare with misery
Fun fact: Sheriff Buster was also a cattle rustler in The Cowboys with John Wayne.
Dude should have called it in and brought back-up…
6:48
bruh you getting the discord notif threw me off so much
Book is much creepier than this scene😕
1:40 Damn
0:42
6:51strat of die
5:30 ?? What’s so terrifying about that room
Minding your business is not an option the way she Blew him to Smitherreens.
That was his only hope of getting out of there she's a criminal now.
7:55 Colt cobra pistol
Book is way different and much better, much much better
فيلم جميل
I thought she was going to poison the sheriff
Am I the only one that thinks about Stewie is shooting Joe Swanson😂
She could be a good politician
This movie gives me yandere vibes
Between her and the woman from single white female talk about crazy
She shoot sheriff very very near at her
I wonder how they eventually found Paul? Maybe Busters wife?????
He spoke to the store owner about Annie so the search party would have followed that lead.
Holy $&@! wtf happened to Buddy’s dad???
Is this the real
Is worst movie ever
FAKE 🤭
No this really happened
Yeah Stephen, always have your bad guy portray a follower of Christ. You’ll answer for it someday.
You're not making your case better by saying that.
6:51 Shotgun original sound
She opened to the door before the sheriff knocked so he would think she was agitated from getting scared, instead of carrying Paul down the stairs. That´s some smart thinking right there
Mad observation 😂
It’s her declining mental health. The book explains the signs such as her poor memory, awkward social interactions, fogged thinking, etc.
Not to mention she talked about the type writer and writing like Paul Sheldon she is quick on her feet
She's cunning.
what do you mean?
6:51.
You're total evil if you kill a character played by Richard Farnsworth.
But doesn’t that make Richard Farnsworth himself evil?
@@collinmartin2566 jeeesus lol. Dark
@@collinmartin2566my jaw dropped so hard
I read that he got terminal cancer and it was so bad that he shot himself. And he was shot dead in the movie so that's a little unnerving..
6:50-"Mr. Sheldon?" BOOM!
Annie: I do everything for you. When are you going to start trusting me?
Also Annie: I held you hostage, I made you burn your book when I didn’t like it, I forced you to write another book the way I wanted, I locked you in a room, passively threatened you with a gun, left my scrapbook out and found out I was a murderer, broke your ankles, and hid you away when you were about to be found.
And she was surprised he fought her and didn’t trust her?
True
@@MarkTrezise-lu6mt She's unhinged. Nothing she says or does is rational.
Sheriff should of let deputies know he was checking this place out , when he went missing the whole department would of been under suspicion and probably found everything
You realize his only “deputy” was his wife, right?
@@joshmartinez7004
She was still helping him run the place though. So he could/should have told her.
@@AlastorsShadowDemon his wife foreshadowed that when she was on the phone with the store owner and said "he doesn't tell me anything anymore".
Exactly that Sheriff shouldn’t had went there by himself
@@JadaBlaze01 If something, that bought Paul some valuable time to plot his plan. Had there been someone else around covering the Sheriff, Annie would've shot Paul and then shot herself on the spot.
The Sheriff shouldn’t had went to her house alone any cop that goes to a suspects home shouldn’t go alone.
One of the best female performances of all time.
I agree and no one knew who this girl was. She came out of nowhere and she’s retiring this year, but 34 years of fantastic performances.
