Love how Stephen is audibly still complaining even after he walks away to do his ordered task. It was funny, but it also really showed just how much influence he had over Calvin & how he could get away with so much backtalk before & after despite being a slave.
With just a close up on his face, he conveyed to the audience what kind of person he is and that he'll be a major foil for our characters. Perfect way to introduce an antagonist.
Samuel L. Jackson puts on a display of the highest level of acting possible, he’s a grandmaster. Him and Leo bouncing off each other in this movie is pure Nirvana. True artistry.
it couldn't be because there were better nominations from the same movie, Christoph waltz himself got the best Supporting Actor Oscar for his dr Schultz role, di Caprio also was nominated for Calvin Candie.
@laminage as soon as they saw Samuel everybody laughed? I'm sure yall just knew he was gonna be a problem Man i can't imagine seeing this in a theater with other races of people. 😅
@@SegaGentleman I lived in Philadelphia when this came out, it was a melting pot of folks and we were all howling when Stephen made his first appearance.
This scene is VERY powerful it is a perfect showcase of the “willie lynch syndrome” that plagues most black people till this day…so much hatred and malice towards your own kind but never towards others!
@@emmaj2961 It certainly is not "ought to" lol. Listen. Southern and common English slang - Oughta. Also. for you since you wanted to try and correct something I wrote... It is "It's" (apostrophe S), not "its". lol
You can't help but pity Steven, he's clearly been a slave a long time and is completely institutionalized. Imagine being programmed all your life to not only be subservient and loyal without question, but to hate everything about yourself.
@@maiasdadNah, he's right. As you rightly pointed out, he was the brains behind the operation, and he clearly took pleasure in the more horrific parts of his work. However, becoming what he became was the best realistically achievable outcome for him, and that's what makes him pitiable. The overseers of the Holocaust on the ground were similar, in that they transformed from ordinary people and became numb to practises that initially made them physically sick, even learning to take pleasure in it and finding new ways to be cruel. The entire system of slavery was so brutal and dehumanising that slaves often self-actualised their own oppression, and that describes Stephen perfectly. It's why his worldview couldn't tolerate Django as a black man who was free to talk down to him and go where he pleases. He might be the most vile PoS in cinema, but he, too, is a victim of one of the worst widespread practices of slavery in human history.
My theory is Steven was a slaver before he became a slave. And even then only on paper. He's one of those educated trafficers from African slaving states like Dahomey with contacts all over the world. He sells people. But then he got into trouble. He contacts a friend/longtime customer who kinda likes him and they find a way to get him to the States. The friend entrusts his plantation to Steven knowing he's more than capable of doing it. Steven accepts. Because presumably pretending to be a slave was better than rotting wherever else he was supposed to go.
Is it just me or does SLJ play a better villain/anti hero than he does a straight hero at least in live action. You cant tell it in animation like with Frozone but just the way he carries himself in live action always makes him very menacing. I admit his roles as Mace Windu and Nick Fury are good but as a villain/anti hero he always nails that shit.
Steven has been around a long time, he probably helped raise Calvin and is more or less, a friend and family member of Calvin. So he gets away with more stuff
Why u think he acts with such defiance in the first place? Because he knows what he can and cannot get away with much like a teen with their parents whom they've been knowing their whole life.
Lot more castration happened to the black slaves sent to the Middle East. That’s why the black population there is extremely small while 14% of the US is black, with a sizable portion being of African descent brought over on ships.
And sadly it still happens in some remote parts of the mid east and and some of north Africa where arabs outnumber the black Africans @@homedepotindustrialfan936
Speedy as wisecrack said said Stephen worked his ass off to be the top slave. He's the only one who can somewhat back talk Calvin without getting whipped.
@@robertmowrey2009Is that why he hates him? He’s achieved what Stephen can only dream of? Makes sense I suppose but something tells me there’s probably more going on and I’m not smart enough to keep up 😂. Stephen’s already so committed to this hierarchy he finds himself in that Django’s freedom must feel like a threat 🤔 This was a good film. Such a great hero’s journey type movie made more interesting by Tarantino and his cast
Django works with Dr Schulz instead of hating him for being white. Does that make Django an “Uncle Tom” too? 🤔 I’m really asking. It’s almost as if these are just meaningless, racist slogans used to shame people for not having the same opinions as you
Why was Stephen signing checks? Did Candy work for Stephen secretly? Just like Django was still a slave of Shulz secretly. For some reason Stephen just knew Django was not free. 🤔
It’s heavily implied that Calvin is illiterate, and pretty much the spoiled brat who does nothing but drink, smoke, and host Mandingo fights. He is the owner on paper, but in reality? It’s Stephen who actually runs the plantation, the scene of them in library tells everything you need to know. In public Stephen is the subservient Uncle Tom to Calvin, but in private, he runs the place.
Best scene in the film. Steven looks at Django as an existential threat to his world.
Exactly!!! Good assessment of that situation.
He has hatred for stephen
I've come to realize that Steven is really just uncle ruckus of the 1800s.

The way he looks at him when he first sees him... you start immediately despise him because of that look on his face

He probably raised Calvin.
Stephen was in control of the plantation.
With just a close up on his face, he conveyed to the audience what kind of person he is and that he'll be a major foil for our characters. Perfect way to introduce an antagonist.
Their acting makes this feel less like a film and more like actual footage from that era. Nearly perfect film.

"You two oughta hate each other". Don't worry about that. They hated each other on sight.

Sam is amazing, first his surprise upon seeing Django, second his seething rage and then everything about "fake Stephen", delivery, maneirisms...
SLJ should have gotten a oscar for this role.

Oh yeah? Great contribution to the conversation.
@@xinavswok4607DiCaprio was not even nominated xD
Watching this in the cinema, it took a few seconds before realising who was playing the part of Steven.
When I saw it the audience howled with laughter with the Sister.

Steven, what a character! and his curse baffled me: "there will always be a candyland!" i take this as a perfect metaphor for our world.
Except theres no more candylands in the world.

Steven reminds me so much of Germany.
When Clarence Thomas meets Colin Powell.
my dude you stil here?
Sometimes I wonder, for Stephen's dialogues, was it all Tarantino's, or Sam Jackson got to adlib.
HOO DIS NEGUH UP AUN DAT NAD!?!?
Translation " What that ninja doin on that horse? I aint even got no horse.

Stephen the house slave
They have more privelage
Did the Stephen kind ever get bred? Or were they typically castrated and just kept for house?

Shouldn’t he b happy to see another free black man
