I like how Woody's character is a brutal murderer and a gangster that intimidates everyone around him, yet Walken is intensely more frightening in this scene by hardly saying anything at all and just smiling.
That's one of the most intimidating scenes I've ever seen in a film. It's just a simple callback to what we believed was an unrelated story, and the reveal floored me the first time I saw it. We know not to fuck with this guy from the story. The mob boss doesn't even need to hear it, he knows how the intimidation game is played, and he just lost to a veteran.
just in general Walken is really, really good and knowing when to drastically change volume to deliver the effect he wants. I feel like he became kind of a meme for doing a lot of silly work as he got older but he's such an unbelievable actor.
You can't teach what Christopher Walken just did. That's a gift, his looks, his voice, his accent changes and his body language can be soft or absolutely terrifying. This scene is a master piece. Bravo!
'Can be soft or absolutely terrifying'. And very often it's *both at once.* I've never been into the mouthy badasses with their shouting and guns; they just don't impress me. The badasses who really chill me are the Michael Corleones, the ones who don't ever need to raise their voices to instill terror. Christopher Walken is an absolute master at this. If anyone had done a remake of *The Godfather* for some perfectly mad reason, he'd've made a perfect Vito Corleone.
Even the simple act of sitting down becomes ominous and menacing when you're Christopher Walken. If he were a police interrogator, hardened criminals would break out into a sweat at the way he pulls his jacket closed.
Man look at that Christopher walken, dudes in his eighties now and he's still oozing acting talent for people to spare lol this guy is up there with Laurence Olivier and Orson Welles imo, a masterful actor with just an absurd amount of talent!!
I agree, David Howse. It was something to see both him and Woody Harrelson in a scene. When I think of actors, these are two who can bring such intensity to their work.
I don't think he acts all that much. He's a creepy but likable person off screen. He does bring screen presence like no one else. When I think of great actors I think of Gary Oldman who has roles that you don't know are/is Gary. He even looks different depending on the character.
"A little..." I try, in my life, to handle grief as stoically and forgiving as Hans does in this film. Especially considering how the ending scene is actually about him letting go of his anger and hate. I fail most of the time, but talk about a good character to try to live up to!
@@SightForMemories Oh, just be different than I am. Why didn't I think of that? While I am at it, I should also just decide to be happy, tall, handsome, and independently wealthy. (You probably didn't mean to, but your comment came off really sanctimonious and preachy.)
@@georgerogers2120 Maybe not sanctimonious, but a little preachy sure. Preaching's fine, what's unforgiving to me personally is being totally unhelpful, which they also were lol. That didn't sound sanctimonious, did it?
@@SightForMemories LOL, yeah. Nah. I know how to love. I do. But when a man rapes a girl repeatedly in a room next to me, while living with friends, and I don't find out about it til 20 years later. Love is not the first thing I am gonna do if we ever cross paths again. Might have something to do with be institutionally raped my-self, as a child. Look, it's a nice sentiment. But keep it for Oprah, champ. Where I come from, it takes YEARS, sometimes DECADES, if at all, to change from a sociopathic vengeful hateful broken man, to the kind of quasi-dalai lama bullturd you just said.
Like almost every great scene, it’s the relaxed tempo. Nobody racing through their lines because they’ve got a hot date later. The best part was when Walken does his trademark small smile and slight head tilt. Great, as usual.
Its actually terrifying when Walken gets this intense in movies. Some of the most intense scenes in movies are by this man, that scene in True Romance with Dennis hopper, the russian roulette in Deer hunter, some moments in The king of new york & The prophecy and here
The Sicilian speech is still one of the greatest moments in movie history, as a history buff how I can confirm it’s rooted in truth too which makes it so much worse and better. The fact that it is a father choosing a fast death over risking ratting out his son while hiding it so well is beyond sad and touching.
I really can't possibly describe how wonderful I think it is that you made this clip, and made sure the viewer knew they wouldn't get the scene without seeing the movie....pointing that fact out WITHOUT adding in the context.......brilliant.
Walken really does have it whatever it is, in every scene he is in I find him captivating he just holds your attention almost an unpredictable air about him that makes me afraid to look away. By the way Woody is no slouch either he has similar attributes I wonder how many come from his father?
The truly great actors know how to leave a little bit of themselves in every character, so their audience can connect to a part of the real person who brings life to the character.
yes. It's not so much underrated as unpopular. Those I know I've shown it to loved it, and I still see new messages in it to this day. Walken def is the best in the movie, one of his greatest performances. It's amazing to see him sit in front of his wifes killer with a smile on his face, trying to give him something and reveal what he truly is. I like it. It's got layers... Many layers..
Christopher Walken sitting in front of the man who JUST killed his wife, and the guy says "Are you hurt?" and he responds with a chilling "A little." I've fuckin got goosebumps from how amazing the acting in this film is. This movie is my favorite of all time, and imho one of Walken's best acting performances, along with Sam Rockwell I recommend this to everyone who hasn't seen it.
He and Sam are very much alike. they play themselves in roles and are easily distinguishable. Someone like Gary Oldman takes it up several notches. His appearance and acting changes with every role and you may not even know it is him unless you know beforehand what role he is playing. But I like both approaches.
I like this movie better. Although in bruges is funnier in a way, this movie has so many more heartwarming moments, and very emotional at times. Whereas in bruges was pretty much just straight dark comedy.
@@SightForMemories When you think about it, winning someone's devotion without meaning to is as scary an idea as it is comforting/ego-stroking. I don't think it's just liars who would be scared by that kind of straightforwardness. The love of a good person... spooky.
Woody, you're good but Chris is showing you how it's done. Thing is, I'm not positive either of you are acting so much as letting out the real you. But no matter.....both of you earned masters in your craft.
I love how Harrelson can be a fucking scene stealer but he can also play more supporting roles at the drop of a hat. Super talented. But of course Walken steals this particular scene.
I like how Woody's character is a brutal murderer and a gangster that intimidates everyone around him, yet Walken is intensely more frightening in this scene by hardly saying anything at all and just smiling.
It's a cravat
No shit. Smiles can be a lot scarier in the right circumstances.
PhantomSavage because Walkers character knows something Woodys doesn’t. There is something weird about Walken, very unusual guy.
Walken is always more frightening when he smiles. 🤣
Its the quiet ones who you have to watch....
Walken is unique in cinema history.
He truly is.
His subtle voice and just a quick movement to show his scar to scare the hell out of the guy shows Walken is such an incredible actor!
you know, the funniest thing about serial killers is they are easily scared :) and usually by objects that you and I take for granted.
@@SightForMemories Just how many serial killers do you know?
@@randallmarsh1187 I've known some, how about you?
@@SightForMemories None, none at all, of course it's not like they go around giving everyone their business card!
@@randallmarsh1187 Well, If you see a guy running from a sweet woman, then you know you got one.
A lot of people have forgotten or neglected the fact that that Christopher Walken is a really damn good actor.
Maximillian Osaben he absolutely is. I adore him
... and he just keeps on getting better. His roles never fail to unsettle me as a viewer.
Nobody forgot
And pretty damn scary.
One of the best
That's one of the most intimidating scenes I've ever seen in a film. It's just a simple callback to what we believed was an unrelated story, and the reveal floored me the first time I saw it.

The way Walken looks into the camera at the end... Genius
Everyone’s gansta till the Cravat comes off!
Harrelson: “Are you looking at something?”
Walken (looking at Harrelson) “No nothing at all.”
He was great in this movie. This movie was great and he made it that much better.
-You hurt?
"A little..."
The scene where he simply says “no” etc when told to stop and raise his hands. Brilliant writing.
"...a little." That's Oscar delivery right there.
Ahhhhhh right. It kills me when he says that
just in general Walken is really, really good and knowing when to drastically change volume to deliver the effect he wants. I feel like he became kind of a meme for doing a lot of silly work as he got older but he's such an unbelievable actor.
That's a Fact.
Perfectly Stated.
@@Ox5f3759df yeah he can go from sinister to unhinged, to quiet and charming flawlessly
There is no one like Walken. How many actors can carry an entire movie on facial expressions alone?
All around talented. Sings, dances, drama, comedies. He's my favorite.
Did anyone else notice that when Walken is putting the cravat back around his neck, he's looking to the camera as if it's a mirror?
YUP.... The confidence!!!!
Well, the camera is a witness not a testimony.
My favourite part of the scene. He looks so eerie there
Thank you Captain Obvious.

Actually you can; just go get a job. At the: Christopher Walken! School, of English.
'Can be soft or absolutely terrifying'.
And very often it's *both at once.*

Jesus Christ stop reading movie reviews...ugh
he's a mob boss that seems to be soft and inviting and absolutely terrifying at the same time in the movie "Suicide Kings" @@Tindometari
When Christopher Walken puts the cravat back on, he does it with style. Mad respect.
Even the simple act of sitting down becomes ominous and menacing when you're Christopher Walken. If he were a police interrogator, hardened criminals would break out into a sweat at the way he pulls his jacket closed.
Walken's smile is so endearing, like he is sharing a private joke with Harrison. Of course, its also chilling in the context of the movie.
Man look at that Christopher walken, dudes in his eighties now and he's still oozing acting talent for people to spare lol this guy is up there with Laurence Olivier and Orson Welles imo, a masterful actor with just an absurd amount of talent!!
+Inebriatd we sure are dude, it's gonna be a sad day when he leaves us.
He is 73, so we should have him for many more years :)

@@RogueBoyScout lol loser
this scene is so interesting. one of my favorite movies of all time. hans is SUCH a great character. very enlightening
Agreed.
Walken stole this movie with his scenes- wildly unpredictable, love it!!!
he steals every scene he is in
I would argue that Rockwell and Walken are neck and neck for how good they are in this film.
When Christopher smiles.. i feel very uncomfortable.
He does have that kinda eerie feel to him, like noone looking like that would be nice, kinda feel.
Yes. But his real life smile is beautiful.
there's something oddly fascinating about this scene.
0mimiq0 is the fact he wants look into the soul of the mofucka that shot his wife
Pin sharp as always, mesmerising.
It Is.

great fucking scene from an underrated movie. Thanks for uploading.

I watched Christopher Walken read the Three Little Pigs,,,,it was hilarious.
I love how he puts it back on in a completely different way and it still looks good.
I love to hear that Walken talkin.
Nuttin like it !
If I was sitting in a hospital waiting room, and Christopher Walken showed up and just started staring at me, I would assume I'd seen Death.
A reasonable assumption.
Woody has turned into a fine dramatic actor, but Walken always steals every scene he is in.
I really can't possibly describe how wonderful I think it is that you made this clip, and made sure the viewer knew they wouldn't get the scene without seeing the movie....pointing that fact out WITHOUT adding in the context.......brilliant.
Anyone catch the "what are you looking at?" And Walken says "nah nothing." Basically looking right at him. That's telling writing right there lol
Christopher Walken has that edge in a movie to steal the scene. It's him you focus on, even in the Mousehunt
Walken really does have it whatever it is, in every scene he is in I find him captivating he just holds your attention almost an unpredictable air about him that makes me afraid to look away. By the way Woody is no slouch either he has similar attributes I wonder how many come from his father?
His father?
@@balajikanakasabapathy6998 yeah his father was a hit man with several kills including assassination of a federal judge.
Can’t wait to see him in Dune 2
The truly great actors know how to leave a little bit of themselves in every character, so their audience can connect to a part of the real person who brings life to the character.
I just adore Walken, no matter what movie he's in!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Me too. Loved him almost my entire life
This scene is actually very beautiful in a number of ways. There are many beautiful undertones in the movie that I'm realizing now.
The entire movie is simply brilliant. Extremely underrated.
yes. It's not so much underrated as unpopular. Those I know I've shown it to loved it, and I still see new messages in it to this day.

+Matt Pfaff yes. Unpopular is a better term. Layers is a beautiful way to describe it.
it's got..... layers
Love that scene. " here, I want you to have it." "I don't want it!"
Lmfao so funny
The voice acting in this scene is just incredible.
When Walken does that half smile my blood freezes.
1:08 I would pee in my pants at this Walken smile.
Christopher Walken sitting in front of the man who JUST killed his wife, and the guy says "Are you hurt?" and he responds with a chilling "A little."

His appearance and acting changes with every role and you may not even know it is him unless you know beforehand what role he is playing. But I like both approaches.
Walken is going to be the Emperor Shaddam IV in Dune. My faith is restored.
Im hoping this turns him on to younger viewers.
one of my fave scenes as of late
It actually does make sense out of context, it still says a lot about both characters.
Bone chilling
the music when he says "a little"
Walkin one of my,all,time favorite actor,.,
I have to watch this movie now.
Awesome movie
Gem of a movie.
Superb movie.
Scene stealer extraordinaire.
A little can be a lot.
1:13 that smile
He's dancin' through the scene, even though he's Walken. 🕺
Nobody can beat Walken at cool...nobody.
This is a fantastic film,and walken is fabulous in it.
Christopher Walken
My favorite actor
One of many
Top notch, the best ❤
wow, looks riveting!
“A cravat”
Only Christopher Walken can say that and make it so unforgetful, menacing, mocking, humourous and chilling all at once
The two perfect actors for this scene!!
All the best thespians are unpredictable...expect the unexpected with top shelf talent 👏
Walken is one of the most underrated actors ever ..
Walken is great
No way McDonagh beats his masterpiece In Bruges.... But this movie is pretty close. The guy's a phenomenal storryteller.
I like this movie better. Although in bruges is funnier in a way, this movie has so many more heartwarming moments, and very emotional at times. Whereas in bruges was pretty much just straight dark comedy.
Now I learnt this is the same scenarist as « in Bruges » I’ll watch this movie. 🙏🏼
I should watch this movie again, this was a good movie
They need to make a scary movie with these two
This movie is great.
Some actors just own the screen
"Sometimes when I'm driving on the road at night, I see two headlights coming toward me..."
Is watch Walken peel potatoes and it would amaze me.
Quite frankly of all the characters he's probably the most stone cold of them all lol.
Loving is a rare thing, you might even get scared by it. because honesty terrors the liars.
@@SightForMemories When you think about it, winning someone's devotion without meaning to is as scary an idea as it is comforting/ego-stroking. I don't think it's just liars who would be scared by that kind of straightforwardness. The love of a good person... spooky.
Never give up your cravat!
Even better than DeNiro and Pacino in the Diner scene in HEAT.
Two sociopaths looking at each other one says" you looking at something"
"You hurt?"
"a little"
Walker is so believable as a psychopath
This scene is just next level acting
What a beautiful passing the torch moment as Walken gives his reins to Harrelson!
🥺🤯😳
Very underrated movie
Someone should edit just this scene into No Country For Old Men for no reason at all. It would work.
"I got a fever. And the prescription is more Cowbell!"
I love this movie lol
What’s the name of this movie?
Could be used to teach acting/film for MANY classroom lectures. Practically a semester of material to work with here.
Love Chris
Goddamn he just wanted to give him his tiny scarf as a gift
Its a cravat lol
"Kravat"
Christopher walken is an enigma...he is up there with de niro and pachino....all day long
DeNiro has always been vastly overrated. He plays the same character in every movie. Pacino and Walken, on the other hand? Masters.
Also Stallone
Better.
Can sing and dance.
All round performer.
The movie was very confusing but did have its moments like this.
Woody, you're good but Chris is showing you how it's done. Thing is, I'm not positive either of you are acting so much as letting out the real you. But no matter.....both of you earned masters in your craft.
Song and dance man.
I love how Harrelson can be a fucking scene stealer but he can also play more supporting roles at the drop of a hat. Super talented. But of course Walken steals this particular scene.

Never heard of this movie. Walken my all time favorite actor. Does your mother sew? Get her to sew that.
aww he's sad that Woody don't want the cravat that's saaad
Walken looks like a vampire. Haven't seen this film. This scene frightened me.
Walken can rock an Ascot!
I love Christopher Walken's characters he just kills me every movie I don't care what he makes he just makes it so interesting to watch him work
