Gael Garcia Bernal on Mexico's Day of the Dead
• Gael García Bernal on ...
What i wan't to point out is, Day of the Dead is not the "Mexican version" of Halloween, and is not a day for the kids as Halloween might be. They don't necessarily get candy. It is a day to celebrate the time our family members were alive. To connect with our memories of them.
I met Gael a long time ago in Mexico, by chance I saw him in a shopping center and he was very kind, and it shows that until today he is a simple and humble person and good vibes.
Erick Vergara Nice!! What did he tell you?
Lucky.
lucky
Lucky!!!! I have had a crush on Gael since the early 90s. And I’m glad to see he is humble :)
You are so lucky. I'm from india an I started watching Mexican films ever since I found about Gael. He's incredible talented and I never admired anyone like this before. But sadly, the borders come in between my unquenchable desire to meet this guy😭
I feel like jimmy was disrespectful in this interview, día de los muertos is a tradition deeply rooted in the Mexican culture and while I understand that it may seem weird to him because it is something he maybe is not familiar with, he seemed to kind of make fun of it but I think Gael handled it very gracefully.
Which is weird because being Jewish like Kimmel is, there is also a big death positive culture in Judaism. I would know I grew up religious and culturally Mexican and both sides display a big respect for death and mourning in a healthy way.
I love the 2 years i lived in Mexico. Their culture is beautiful and Día de Muertos is magical. Viva Mexico!!
maddy90 viva Mexico Maddy 😊
maddy90 where in Mexico did you live?
yes maddy viva mexico im from the city of the montains monterrey México viva México your welcome 😂🎉🇲🇽
Día de los Muertos it's such a beatiful, brightful celebration. As Gael said, it's about celebrating life, remembering the loved ones that aren't here and face the fact that life will eventually become death. As mexican, I must admit that this is my favorite cultural celebration.
jimmy sounded appalled but i think it sounds like a lovely celebration
Roberto Enrique Ramos Rivera same
Same. My family never celebrated Dia de los Muertos but I always loved the whole idea of it and the message.
Roberto Enrique Ramos Rivera tú pones altar? Yo jamás solo como que en la escuela y ya
Yes, is my favorite too!
What a beautiful man.
Also - shut up, Jimmy.
mareir Mexico city baby !!! We r like that 😎😎
Jimmy's arrogance made me cringe.
Ricardo Blackmetal guadalajara actually
Gael is SO gorge! 😍
As a US citizen, it is my duty to formally denounce Jimmy’s bland banter and arrogance, and heretofore move to have said person aborted from our nation and dispossessed of its legal privileges.
Love Gael. He's so nice and humble. And pretty hot.
lar hjp Well he wont be Ugly hot.... right?
You should see him in the movie “The crime of father Alberto” he was gorgeous 😍
+sel99100 It's not Alberto it's Amaro
Yeah he's my mans
Yeah, he's a sweetie! ❤️
Lmao his reaction on last question was like wtf Jimmy
It’s kind of offensive how he’s laughing at what Gael is sharing about his culture.. wasn’t expecting that from Jimmy . Clearly he hasn’t even
Watched the movie
mayrakata I mean, he wasn't exactly able to see the movie when this interview took place, but even so he was being way over the line and offensive...
Jimmy was being more condescending than authentically interested, then again that's his whole career
I love jimmy but this time he was acting like a jerk, He was trying to make fun about a tradition that has a long back ground from ages, I could tell it in Gael’s face, not really enjoying it, but he is a gentleman.. so.
I don' think he was insulting to Dia de Los Muertos. I just think Jimmy's jokes were so lame. "Are real skulls made of candy?" -.-
LynnMelo Yea Jimmy was definitely lacking in the joke department during this segment. Embarrassing.
I'm sure Jimmy wouldn't have made fun of a Jewish holiday. "You leave an empty chair for who???"
@@rgj9524 lmao
Jimmy is and ignorant buffoon. Pay him no mind.
Man I could listen to Geal talk all day and never get bored
Awwww he's so cute he's shining green eyes♥
Why you cut Gael in the middle of the talking? He's so cute, with gray hair and everything...
Mariana Eugenia Plus, Gael has one of those beautiful voices that you want people to shut up and let you listen to.
*sighs* Gael is just SO dreamy. The sound of his voice gives me the feels. 😍😗
Gael has one of those voices that I can just listen to all day long, even if he's describing his grocery list.
Jimmy kind of thinks this is a kids' holiday like halloween, when it is a cultural tradition for everyone in México.
I need more Gael Garcia and Diego Luna interviews in my life.
Hot dynamic duo
Having a special day where you go pay respects to the deceased members of your family is a really beautiful thing that is also done in other cultures/countries . There are similar festivities in Europe and Asia. I think it's important to acknowledge and celebrate these natural, inevitable life cycles and it's unfortunate that it's not more of a thing in the US.
hmm, it's more than paying respect, is more like a party, a family reunion with your deceased relatives, and because they can only come here one day of the year, you get them food and other stuff that they liked (cigarettes, alcohol, favorite flowers).
yeah, here in Mexico It´s not that solemn. People go to graveyards and decorate the tombstones with flowers and food, they also play music and pay respect and everything but in a joyful way. Actually, there is also a tradition of writing "calaveritas" to your family and friends. "calaveritas" are a small poetry about how you are gonna die and what the Dead is going to say to you when she takes you, but in a very playful and ironic way, and on the day of the dead you gift the "calaverita" to the person you´re talking about.
Even there are calaveritas contests around the country. I guess thats the best example about how we live the day of the dead in Mexico. :)
There's an entire holiday for it in the US. Memorial day. People BBQ and eat together and visit graves of loved ones to put flowers on them.
On behalf of all of us, I'd like to extend my sincerest apologies to Gael and pretty much everyone else for having to deal with Kimmel.
For the habitant of New York, Paris or London, the dead is the word that never pronounces cause it burns the lips. The mexican in the other hand hangs around with it, mocks her, cuddle with her, sleeps with her. Is one of his favorite toys and his most permanent love. True, in his attitude like in the others maybe there's fear, but at least he doesn't hide it or hides himself. He stares face to face with impacience, indiference or irony "if i may die tomorrow better die right now"
Fragment of The solitude labirynth by mexican writer Octavio Paz. Sums pretty well the collective mexican spirit of this celebration.
kaoko111 I love Octavio Paz.
Can't wait to see the movie!
It's so beautiful!!
In Mexico we are in love with the movie, I really hope you enjoy it.
Seriously fantastic, such a heartfelt and beautiful movie.
"You bring the pictures food?" "Do they ever eat the food?" How FREAKING rude! Have some respect for other peoples traditions dude!!
hes just cracking a joke...relax
@@jaivas16 No.
jaivas16 disrespecting the dead is never a joke pendejo
EXACTLY. They're not just "pictures", they're images of family members place on the ofrenda to remember and respect; how dare he insult a tradition.
@@jaivas16 just shut up please, if you don't understand the background about this please please just shut up
Gael seems so genuine, the other guy is just a ridicoulous entertainer
Also in Italy the 2th of november is the day of the dead and the first of november is the day of all Saints.
Federica Schena Same in Mexico (Dia de todos los Santos).
Mexico got this tradition from Europe, when Spain got here, but it was adapted with its own prehispanic culture
Anahi19 Alcalá México did not get el Día de muertos from Europe. El Día de muertos is a millenary tradición. Grettings!
Federica Schena Same here in Colombia
Really?? Do you do something special??? I'm really curious
this made me so happy! Im so glad a Mexican is speaking about the celebration they way it really is :) Gracias Gael
love how Gael glances at him probably thinking ´but are you stupid?´ at 2:36
Gael is so 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Coco is AWESOME, US and people from around the world, hope you'll enjoy a little piece of Mx!
Such an example of: Mexicans can DO it well.
Been in love with him sinceeeee y tu mama tambien and amores perros 🖤
Marina Perez I still haven’t seen y tu mamá también, but Amores Perros is where I first encountered both GGB and Iñaritu. I’ve been big fans of both ever since.
Y mi mamá que? La tuya mira mir........ah, hablaa de la pelicula 😂😅😅😅
amores perros is a classic !!
Maestro
Día de Muertos was my favourite celebration growing up. Its such a ritualistic concept: buying fruits and flowers, making the food, putting up the altar. Its so familiar and so colorful, we celebrate the life and remember the loved ones that have left us with their favorite food and drinks. You put your name in the calaverita to stay humble "no one escapes from the death", but at the same time you laugh about it "im gonna die anyway so why should i worry". The flowers (bright yellow ones) and the candles guide the souls to their homes, we make a path with them from the door to the altar. We put salt and water for purification, we hang colorful partons of paper with death allegories because its a party, we play music and joke around while having dinner: the adults drinking tequila and laughing and the kids running around trying to steal the candys from the altar and telling scary stories to the younger ones. All that while feeling that our loved ones are there with us, eating and drinking with us, and in the end of the night, when the family starts to leave the house you look at the pictures of the loved one you lost and say goodbye: see you next year, see you when i die and im feasting with you in the other side. You live though my memory, and ill remember you forever.
Coco, the film that made me fall in love with Gael Garcia Bernal. He's a great actor and a bueno singer as well. I just LOVE the sound of his voice; it just makes me swoon. 💓🎶😍
Stephanie Evjen tmi?
I love love love love love love love love... love love love love love Gael! 😍
ugh, Gael is so cuuuute❤️
I was in MX for a couple weeks around the Day of Dead honoring 2017. Shrines everywhere. On streets, in windows, entryways. It was a moving experience.
In fact that Halloween followed by Day of Dead was one of the best times ever.
You really need to see this movie!!
It's so well made and beautiful!!
I went to see the movie this past weekend at I can just say that Pixar never lets down, 100% recommendable. Also bring tissues cause you'll be tearing up like a nun on christmas!
He's so wonderful 😍
his friends don't like his work, but every project he has ever been a part of is gold!! didn't think I could love this man any more, but here I am, consumed. UGH GAEL, you beautiful man ❤
El dia de Los muertos has more logic to it while Halloween is ridiculous, but Jimmy is making fun of it.
Día De Muertos*********✨👈🏻🇲🇽🔥
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
Love Gael love Coco
Love this interview 🙌🏼✨
Gael, you're my new favorite 2018 Oscar's nominee... I couldn't stop listening to the motivational words that you say every time I come around.. thank you for supporting the autism awareness... If you don't know me.. now you know me because the character role that you did for coco was my favorite because your song was my favorite part.. I hope that God bless your days and nights Gael! And there's anything else... Reply in the reply section and I'll try my very best to keep you very inspired- sincerely yours, Sienna Thomas: Vernon Texas resident and Vms 7th grade. 8th to be pianist
Also Jimmy, try not to b rude to Gael.. OK? He did a very good role in his life and he has been through a lot of things that I haven't been through before
Hahaha!!! I've already seen Coco and it's awesome. I could spoil it for your but i'll be nice
Phantastic comments me too! It's such a great movie!
What a masterpiece!
Jimmy, you are good with the healthcare stuff, but then you still do that condescending white man thing about other cultures, esp. any thing to do with Latino culture.
Stop it, Jimmy, just stop it.
Wtf! Latin culture?? The day of the dead is 100% Mexican culture and tradition 🇲🇽✨
There are white Mexicans too
Gael Garcia and Diego Luna are like Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, they just do so good together. I loved Amores Perros, Y tu Mamá también, Rudo y Cursi. Great movies
His eyes... so pretty. OMG: he's a very lovable guy.
I usually like Jimmy, but he acted like an a**hole, he was trying to be funny, but instead made Gael uncomfortable. The point of the movie is to show different cultures and the least you can do is respect!
I love him!
Jimmy was annoying but Gaels cool nature made the show!! Wish I had been there for this. I’ve had a crush on Gael since the early 90s after his first soap opera. Saw him in person when I was 12 and almost fainted lol I don’t get start struck this it was just him I guess. Glad to see his fame hasn’t changed his personality. ❤️
Hell no! Cant believed Gael couldn’t give a better explanation of our country’s tradition
He got nervous.
The day of the dead in Mexico
Is a day for your love ones that have passed away to be remembered
In this day to show that they are remembered
You put up an altar with the picture of your love one
And you put what ever they liked when they lived
Their favorite
Food
Drinks
Music
Snacks
In their memory
Thats how we remember our love ones
Every year after they passed
Gael ❤
He's improved in English! Good for you, Gael! I want to see more of you in Hollywood, just like Diego Luna.
I loved the movie, it was amazing I cried each time I watch it.
Honestly I hate how jimmy was making jokes about the día de los muertos . I feel like he didn’t take it seriously and as a Mexican who has strong feelings for that day it just kinda makes me mad . That’s just me though i dont know about anyone else .
I loved him in The Science of sleep, one of my favorite movies, and it wasn't until after I saw Coco that I realized he was jn it
Mexico en la casa! / Mexico in da house!
I love this man ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
His accent 😍😍😍😍
He's soooo cute! I love him 😍 he's such a good actor
This is a holiday everyone should celebrate...
Juan Martinez yeah I don't think so..
omg i used to have a crush on him in 'y tu mama tambien'
He is adorable.
I urge you guys to watch Coco. It rocks! :)
I was just watch Neruda last night. Wow. He uses hypnotism, like the old slient film stars, in those extreme close ups of his eyes.
I was watching Bad Education before this.
He makes me laugh. This guy is very funny.
Mexico, we are all jealous of you. You made this bright star!
Gracias!
Oh my god I’m in love with with! He’s so dreamy!
Great explanation, Gael. Exelente explicación.
He is so god danm handsome
I love Gael
Gael my favorite
OMG HECTOR!!! I am dead. He is so GORGEOUS!!!!
oh Gael
Gael! I remember on August 31,2016 we were on Mozart in the Jungle on Season 3 Episode 9 and we sang! I’m one of the kids from the circle, Sofia. Remember the one with curly hair you took a picture with? That’s me. Jimmy, if you read this, find a way to tell Gael.
Me too! Gael then took me back to his apartment for some tex mex !!
djaesy Lmao if you really did what was the filming location (i know it’s a joke lol)
What a shared tradition of Mexico and Filipinas.
That was horrible. Maybe if we respect for All cultures and traditions. We, could understand it is not only a GUN problem We American's have. But Loud Voices taking leadership, No longer understanding the importance of Harmless traditions like skull Candy making ,food preparation, that have been around to fundamentally envoke what allows for human coexistence in groups of people and tribes around the world. By affording those who practice cooking together reflecting on the lives of those from our past By communicating with one another experiencing laughter, tears, sounds, touches, smell's of those who love one another. Maybe reflect on that and not cry about why it missing.
Mi amor Gael 😍 Es hermoso!!
OK- he is a great actor and one sexy hombre!
I wasn't aware of the different way to see death of other cultures, here in México it's so normal to talk about it...
"Or things that killed them" 😂 I laughed so hard 😂😅
to the people that really want to know about this tradition, you should really check that out! Bc even though i am mexican it is pretty hard to understand why this kind of stuff is done u know? The Día de Muertos has such a huge and little details that all of them have a meaning! That's why it's so wonderful, like the cempasúchil flowers (those orange flowers) are meaningful! And the colors orange or purple etc! Or the cross sign in front of the altars made of flour! And the water, the salt, the muerto bread! Oh they're almost infinite! Mexico is a really religious country, that's why it's celebrated everywhere but also brings a beautiful message, the schools have teached too!
Iris Martínez Cempasúchil’s name in English is Marigold
In the Philippines, we also have "Araw ng mga Patay" which literally means "Day of the dead" or "Dia de los Muertos" and celebrated on November 1 and 2 as well. Is this a coincidence? Mexico y Filipinas son hermanos?
Yes. We are family.
I really love the show of Jimmy Fallon the best show ever in the world and both actors are the acting entertainment Gael Garcia and James Feeling Smaller ✌🏻✨🍀💖🙏🏻
When someone mentions Gael García ,reminds me Amores Perros lol
Mexicanos, siempre mexicanos😍😍💜💜
Gael García Bernal is so handsome, I love his eyes! ❤
Que bello que es .
Sooo beautiful
Day of the Dead is not a Mexican version of "Halloween". It's an ancestral celebration. In Mexico, "Halloween" is not popular.
Kimmel is always making fun about Guillermo’s accent, what do you expect about him? Being ignorant and arrogant is part of his culture.
I remember seeing him when he was a kid doing novelas. I always knew he would cross over, he always had the it factor. Arriba Mexico cabrones!
day of the dead is beautiful festivity in which we celebrate life by honoring and remembering our loved ones who have passed.
Coco was a beautiful movie ♡ Everyone please go see it when it releases worldwide, it is so touching.
retitle this "Jimmy Kimmel disrespects Mexican culture and tradition for 2 minutes straight"
"are real human skulls made of candy?" Wow, great interview Jimmy, what a distinction
Gracias Gael.
So in love with him
Coco finally comes out this Friday in my area and I cant wait ❤️
Please invite Gael more often!! :D huge fan of him :)
gael is such a beautiful man, inside and out ;w; and funny, too ;W;
He should be added to the Handsome Men’s Club 😂
No we don't eat burritos [sigh] we honor our beloved dead with mole, a special bread made for the ocasion, hot chocolate, sugar skull decorated with colors, a special flower used only for that day (cempasúchil) candles, a glass of water, a plate with salt, cutting paper to decorate, each one of these elements have a special meaning in the altar and everything else is extra, for example if your abuelita liked tequila, tobacco. Next day we eat that food as a way to share with them. But if you are in a really traditional town everybody goes to the cementery, decorate the tomb and spend all day and night in a big massive party, sharing with their beloved ones, paying their respect and remembering those who aren't with us with joy.
I see your point, but burritos are a typical dish from Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, so it is a mexican tradition too.
