Just finished the movie…..completely tore my heart to pieces. So touching ❤
Hello ma’am I really appreciate your love and support for my dad’s career thanks for your love ❤️ 😊
@@ElizabethAnnHanks It's such a beautiful movie.
Now watch the original movie which is 10x better.
In spite of the sad plot, it's a movie that makes you glad to still be alive. Like "My life without me", it also gave me the same feeling in the end.
As a Scandinavian (Norwegian), I still remember the first time I read the (Swedish) book this movie is based on - and the whole story is just hilarious and heartwarming. Truly one of the best books I ever read. Also the Swedish film, was just brilliant.
Now that Hollywood is going to make its own version of this story, I’m glad they did it just by picking Tom Hanks for the main role - he’s perfect for it.
Looking forward to this movie!
Ty for this comment!
I loved the original film as well. Saw Otto last night. Tom, and the cast, honor the story quite exceptionally.
Hei! My family is Norwegian-American. We checked out the "A Man Called Ove" film. It was great! Haven't read the book, I should check it out, too.
!!spoilers!!
I kinda' worry that because we all know what a sweetheart Tom Hanks truly is, his character's eventual redemption from crankiness won't have quite the same impact. He can play grumpy, but his reputation is so beloved, we all know it's an act.
I bet that Walter Matthau could have played this character very well, in his day. He already had that "curmudgeon" type of character as his trademark. Jack Nicholson did "As Good As It Gets" as a jerk who redeems himself, but not quite the same flavor. I'm trying to think of what other actor these days of an appropriate age has a reputation for playing truly crotchety, grumpy older dudes; not coming up with one off the top of my head.
But I'm sure Tom Hanks will do great. He always does.
Ha det bra!
Hvordan har du deg?
Distraction. Most Hollywood movies. Distraction.
Now here's an interview between two evil creatures who sold their souls to the devil quite some time ago for fame and greed.
Nasty side-product of these decisions is that even more entities, behind the scenes, are using these ignorant and controlled and men, filled with fear, to make the human drama on this planet even more ignorant, controlled and destructive. Fok you both!
Tom Hanks is to Hollywood what Dolly Parton is to country music.
Awesome Analogy! ❤
Meatrider
You nailed it!
Sure
Dolly Parton?!?! Johnny Cash!
A Man Called Ove is a phenomenal book!
I love it!
..and film...
I love his writing style
So true.
I agree! The book was excellent as well.
The crank in the neighborhood? Finally, a movie that speaks to me!
the book is wonderful
@@zizinnnn it is! It was a gift from a friend/acquaintance. Delightful!
There's a very funny song in that vein by Rev'd Billy C. Wirtz called "Get Off my Lawn!" I think it's here on UA-cam.
I feel the same! LOL
If you were a real crank, you wouldn’t want anyone to talk to you 😬
That scene from "A man called Otto" is actually funny and touching at the same time. "You gave birth to two children, you learned a new language, you will have no problem learning how to drive". Can't wait to watch the movie!
"actually"
Can’t wait for it get to streaming or to BluRay.
That is pretty much dirrrrectly from A Man Called Ove. Good stuff, but not original.
I've seen movie. If you could hope to love someone so dearly, and are prone to a tear jerker, this is your movie! Unexpected reaction, it got me good. Enjoy the movie Alain Michel 🙂
@@bregancool980 it is directly from the book even
I feel so happy every time I hear Tom Hanks in an interview. He just makes my day. Can’t wait to see this movie.
ROADKILLIHOPENOT 😂😂
Her face for You aren't a complete idiot! It's priceless.
Steve's story about starting in 2nd reminded me of my old friend Walter. Born in the 1890s , so didn't really grow up w/ cars . He drove everywhere in 2nd , kept the revs up always , and controlled his speed w/ the clutch . We lived on a small island , so he never went far (just store and home , really ) He replaced the clutch quite often . He was British and was in both big wars . I have a hunch he learned to drive on some sort of tracked vehicle . There was always a cloud of smoke around the car .A wonderful guy .
I learned to drive from my Grandpa on a big old Ford truck from the late '30's that had no synchromesh and so no real clutch. You had to listen for when to shift. I was also tiny at that age so he had to tape blocks of wood to the pedals so I could reach them. I loved him so much. Good times.
My grandmother drove in 1st gear from St Louis, Mo to Henderson Ky. We thought we would never get there and it was before interstates!🙄
My first car was an old toyota pickup, and I arbitrarily took it as a challenge of skill to start it in as high a gear as possible just for fun. Definitely possible to get it moving in 4th gear, but must have been hell on the clutch wear-and-tear (only did that once).
@@mr.mrs.d.7015 That brought back so many memories! I learned how to drive in a '74 Jeep Cherokee made by AMC (American Motor Company). Back then, it was so huge and I was pretty small. There was a pillow to sit on, two pillows behind my back, and blocks of wood duct taped to the pedals so I could reach. Back then it cost so much more to buy a vehicle with an automatic transmission. Nearly all vehicles were manual/standard trans. Yes, such good times. ❤
Great stories!
Mr Tom Hanks is an absolute national treasure. Love that man 👏👏
He's never put out a movie I didn't like.
And he'd love you if you were under ten years of age and a sex slave on Epstein Island
My goodness that was the quickest 6 min clip! I could watch these 2 interact all day.
One of The Few Men Who can say “You’re All Idiots” and We’re Absolutely Delighted. Tom Hanks is just Wonderful
Tom Hanks can pretty much say anything to people, and people are just overwhelmed and thrilled that he said it to them regardless of what he said.
What if he’s right? What if you are all idiots and he’s done something so disgusting and sick that you won’t even believe it regardless of how much truth is in your face?
@@Maaden84 what if reality doesnt care about negative or positive? Facts are facts, they are trying to hide what Tom Hanks did. Something here was stumbled upon and its a frighteningly huge network of celebrities, politicians, big money holders and brokers and is used as leverage for black mail?
@@sleepyjesus7265 Because his intentions are clear.
@@jacobshirley3457 I would argue it's because of his gravitas and the fact that he's like the biggets movie star alive.
He is so brilliant Always hysterical !!! We need more Tom's in the world!
This movie was amazing ❤️ There was laughter and tears but most of all it was heartwarming. Tom Hanks and all the other actors gave wonderful performances. If you get the opportunity, definitely watch this movie, you won't be disappointed. Cheers 🥂
He's brilliant at improv. A true treasure.
A Man Called Ove is sensational! 💕🌟💕
It's nice to listen to jokes from someone like Tom Hanks who shares and remembers my generation--tv's with two buttons and stick shifts. It's so easy to relate to him.
So glad you gave Hanks all those segments. The two of you are FANTASTIC fun together.
👏💕💕🏆💕💕👏
Go see this movie! Saw it last night. Wonderful film. The tale takes a few deeply profound human themes and intertwines them in an almost quiet way behind the crankiness, yet in such a touching and relatable journey. You want them as your neighbors, even Otto. Past Tom films like Castaway or Philadelphia for me; one to two tearing up times. A man called Otto? Six. Minimum. Almost lost it more than once only to look over at my wife to see her holding back tears too.
It should get an Oscar nomination for Best Picture.
I absolutely love Tom Hanks! He is just so wonderful.
He's quite evil in my opinion. But hey, we're both right I guess. You find him awesome, so he is. I find him despicable and evil, and so he is. Distraction. Most Hollywood movies. Distraction.
Now here's an interview (to me) between two evil creatures who sold their souls to the devil quite some time ago for fame and greed.
Nasty side-product of these decisions is that even more entities, behind the scenes, are using these ignorant and controlled and men, filled with fear, to make the human drama on this planet even more ignorant, controlled and destructive. Fok you both!
3:33 Me learning to drive, approaching every intersection: "Please stay green. Please stay green. Please stay green. Please stay green. Please stay green. Please stay green."
LOL - I identify with that! ❗️❗️😁
Just LOVE Tom Hanks,he s bloody brilliant !! And that HE,loved our Swedish movie & our actor Rolf Lassgård,playing "Grympy old man"..just Wow! HUGS From Stockholm,Sweden! I mean Tom Hanks,with "You ve got mail & he landed the plane at Hudson river when the engines suddenly died & so on,& so on..Mr Hanks is AMAZING..!
His wife told him to do the movie, actually that they had to do the movie. She is the producer I believe.
Also Tom Hanks with "Houston, we've got a problem."
From Mr Rodgers Neighborhood to the Crank in the Neighborhood! Tom Hanks can play it all beautifully!
Tom Hanks is absolutely 💓ing being Tom Hanks this time around!🥰
@@tomhanks829 💀💀💀
I've read the book "A Man Called Ove" and watched the Swedish movie, and totally enjoyed both. Can't wait to watch "A Man Called Otto."
Tom Hanks bringing out his inner Kevin Costner as Otto there, and apparently at home: *"Let me get this straight..."*
Tom Hanks is a brilliant actor. So many great movies like The Green Mile, Forrest Gump, Philadelphia, the trilogy Da Vinci and the list goes on and on 👏👏👏
Terminal was my favourite
@@SaurabhMaske-ru9pb Brilliant movie as well 👍
I could watch Stephen Colbert interview Tom Hanks for hours. What a joy!
Absolutely love Tom Hanks. What a class act.!
Loved “A man called Uwe”. Can’t wait to see the English version!
Actually it’s Ove.
@@lspiegel5704 IKR it's Swedish, not German
@@lenawagenfuehr53 I know that, but in the original book it’s spelled Ove.
Who would have thought that listening to two guys discussing cars would be as delightful as this
Awe... Three segments are not enough! I want to listen to you two shooting the breeze all night. Can't wait to see this movie! ❤
I just adore both of these men……so incredible
take notes kids, this is a masterful balance of experience and spontaneity.
Having read the book, Tom Hanks was the last person I'd expect to play this character because he's just soooo nice!!! Love him to bits.
And he reminded us why is he considered a great actor.
Such a great storyteller. Brought back memory of learning stick. I went to a dealer, found a truck I wanted ,the salesman taught me on a ten minute test drive. I bought it and by the time I got home it was second nature.
It took me about 15000 km to feel confident. Not that it stopped me from teaching others...
My dad insisted that my brother and I learned to drive stick. This was in the mid-'90s. It came in handy once in college when- due to circumstances I forget- several of us needed a ride and a friend's stick-shift car (without the friend) was our only option. It was stick, and I was the only one of this group who knew how to drive it, so I became the designated driver for that trip. It honestly has not come up since then. I probably retail the skill somewhere in the back of my mind, but not having used it since 1998/99, I'd probably have to practice a bit 'til it came back into my muscle memory. But I am glad I learned!
I honestly lose respect for people who can't drive stick
I could listen to Tom Hanks all day, he's such a delight.
He has been in some of the best movies of all time. This movie made my cry and helped me remember that you have to find an excuse to live even if you don't want to because eventually you will find what's worth living for and death will come on its own. I'm glad Otto lived and was happy til his day came
🥰
Inte the book and the Swedish movie Ove gets out of the car and yells at the person who's honking 😅
In the U.S. I think that's a reason to get shot, so I suspect that is why they left it out :P
@@bjoardar Indeed!
No, they have the same scene when he’s teaching Marisol to drive. He does confront the guy.
..the funny about that last story is that Panasonic DVD players actually do say "Goodbye" on the LCD screen as they're switching off 😁
Tom is the best guest ever!!!🤣🤩💖
@@tomhanks829 😂😂
The clutch stories! Years ago I was in SF for a work meeting and the clutch cable on my car broke as I was leaving the underground parking garage. I managed to drive from SF home to San Jose on the freeway with NO clutch - fairly easy to up shift, but down shifting was a nightmare!
Now here is a man i am fully delighted with. Tom Hanks is marvelous...talented...brilliant...warm...friendly and to me the most talented actor on television. Love love love Tom Hanks....
Hands down my favorite Tom hanks role! We all have our own “otto” in our neighborhood.
Just saw it today. Absolutely love it. Especially the cat.
LOVED that book!!!!!!! Read it.
Me too!
This is sooo wonderful! What a joy! Thank you.
This Otto guy sounds like a refreshingly sane person. 👌
Saw the movie and loved it .I will go back and see it a second time it is so good . Anything he makes is Gold . 💕
Never fails to impress
It was a REALLY nice movie. We need more of these! I love GOING to a movie theater so thanks.
YES! I spent my 20s navigating San Francisco with a manual Pathfinder-LIVING at the bottom of Nob Hill with no parking garage. I feel confident that those of us who mastered parallel parking with a clutch in San Francisco are better equipped than most to navigate and survive an apocalypse. Happy to know Tom Hanks will be in the ranks.
I once made the mistake of wearing a pair of Scholl's (with the wooden footbed) to SF. Walking up the hill from the embarcadero, it was so steep my feet were sliding out of my sandals.
Can we not wait til this guy is dead to acknowledge how much joy and happiness he has brought to all of our lives along the years. Thanks Tom Hanks for all the laughs, tears and all the range of emotions you have made us feel! You sir are a national treasure! I want to thanks him from the bottom of my heart! I don’t have any social media so I can’t post it straight to his account so if someone can copy and paste to his Facebook or whatever other social media he uses I would be very grateful! Thanks again!
Having seen the original Swedish movie, I am so glad Tom Hanks plays Ove! Awesome!
One of the Great movie Hollywood history amazing actors wonderful personality amazing human being Always been everyone favorite actor in Hollywood tom Hanks 👍👍👍👍👍
Just saw it in the cinema it was really good. I recommend everyone to see the swedish original and see the amazing acting of ”Rolf Lassgård” aswell. The Swedish movie is a true masterpiece!
I don't know what it is but there was something very refreshing about Tom Hanks playing a grumpy old man
The best thing about knowing how to drive with a manual transmission is that it's like riding a bike. You never forget how.
Lol, best not to learn in a hilly area with lots of snow!
@@LindaC616 Actually, it is. If you can do it there, you can do it anywhere!
I just bought a manual after 12 years driving an automatic, best decision I ever made going back - automatics are LAZY driving.
I'm 40 hahaha
@@cheekyb71 Glad to hear it.
I “learned” to drive a stick in high school. Our drivers training was in the parking lot. If I could get enough RPMs to get it into second, it was a fluke. 😂
These two guys are so much fun! I can't wait to try Tom Hanks's cokagne!
Ahhh, yes, the RECYCLING BINS...
A never-ending source of comedy! 😄 Brilliant, Mr Hanks! 💎👍
M 🦘🏏😎
My husband says “ so let me get this straight” when he’s wound up too!
Hello ma’am I really appreciate your love and support for my dad’s career thanks for your love ❤️ 😊
U just gave me a traumatizing memory of me learning how to drive a stick. My mom was yelling at me because we were on a hill, at a stop sign, and a car behind me. Of course the car rolled back, don't worry I didn't hit anyone, but her yelling stressed me out so much that I put the car in park, got out and walked away.
Huh? There is no park for a stick. Park is a position for automatics.
@@jeffreypierson2064 no u can put the hand brake up to park on a hill.
Jeffrey Pierson I was 16 and scared to death that I was gonna hurt the car, so pls give me a break.
@@jeffreypierson2064 ok I'm having fun with u. Pls don't take it the wrong way. Nothing but luv and laughter.
@@kimberleyphillips6671Ah, technically that's the parking brake. "Putting it in park" typically refers to an automatic transmission. Don't mind the car enthusiasts, we're nerds 🙂
PS: using the parking brake is the key. Hold it on, rev engine, get clutch on the biting point, then simultaneously let off brake and accelerate. The e-brake is used as a hill hold, basically.
When he starts to talk about his VW Camper..I can t stop laughing !!
Hysterical! I learned on a stick! 50 years later I can still drive one.
It is nice to know that Tom Hanks is consistent. I actually had the chance to talked to him many, many years ago. We found out that we both had a Volkswagen Synchro Westy. This is the same story that we exchanged about driving in San Francisco. My incident was in Seattle. He had just finished a trip in his Synchro Westy.
tom hanks could play the lead in 'showgirls' and still be great
He did that in the 80s...Bosom Buddies....dressed as women to go to a girls college...
SAW IT A FEW DAYS AGO I THOUGHT IT WAS A FANTASTIC MOVIE. TOM WAS EXCELLENT. VERY TOUCHING. ALSO THE NEIGHBOR WAS GREAT.
@@tomhanks829 Your welcome Tom. Splash is one of my favorite movies also. My friend bought me the DVD about 10 years ago. I lost my friend 2 years ago I miss her a lot .
Crying out loud ... that was my dad. I've been renting cars all around Europe and surrounding regions in this last year. They don't ask if you can drive a stick shift and every car I've rented is manual. Fortunately, I learned on a vw bug a million years ago.
It's still the default in most of Europe and the automatic cars are still the odd one out. My dad got asked if he wants to buy an automatic and each time he said "hell nah, that's for old people!" I never learned how to drive automatic. My driving instructor dedicated a theory lesson to it, but we never get to sit in a car like that since the driving school didn't have one.
@Adriana Heiler I prefer a stick shift, but it's almost a rarity in the usa. I would contend that nearly all rentals are automatic.
@@janefreeman995
I learned to drive in a stick shift.
A Man Called Otto was an amazing feel good movie. It’s a nice break from the shallow superhero action movies. Just make sure that you bring tissues.
Tom Hanks, you are too good for this world, and we do not deserve you.
We had our school bus stop at the neighborhood grouch's corner. His name was literally Mr Wilson, like on Dennis The Menace. He lined his trash bags with newspaper, when he put his trash out, so we couldn't see what was in his trash bags. As IF we cared! He had a HUGE yard with a sidewalk running halfway thru it & we rode our bikes down his sidewalk, so he set a friggin LADDER across his sidewalk to keep out us pesky kids.
I read the book and saw the first movie and I'm seeing this treat in the theater on Fri im looking forward to it ,I used to wonder how humans ended up like this one im old enough to get it lol.
I love Tom hanks!
This took me back to learning to drive a stick! Hysterical!
Love it, Let out the Crank! tshirt worthy lol What a gem of a person ! we are so lucky to have him on our lives with all the tv shows and movies !? cant think of a bad movie he has done, oh wait a min... but come on he is allowed one bad movie, that perhaps? his agent is to blame for that mistake ? LOL Gosh Mr. Tom Hanks so talented
Just watched it, it gave me a roller coaster ride of emotions. Damn, It made me laugh, made me say "awww" 🥺 and it made my eyes puffy. It is a good film, A must watch! ❤
Loved, love TOM Hanks! ❤
Tom's performance is impecable! extraordinary! The cast also did a great job, how sweet and beautiful that Tom's son Truman also was great part of the movie and did an awesome job too. Bravo!
My favorite actor of all time!
Great movie. Love Tom
A slightly buzzed Tom Hanks, lovely!
His comment about the “goodbye” on the DVD player was so adorable and sounds like my grandpa.
Yes Grandpa, that doesn’t meant the DVD player is leaving, it means it’s turning off. Lol😂
OMG ... I just realised that I'm the crank in my neighbourhood! 😲Looking forward to watching this movie.
There's a wonderful Mr. Magoo quality to this iteration of the wonderful Tom Hanks.
I never knew what was the movie about, now I want to see it!!!!
I hardly ever watch movies and hadn’t been to the cinema in years until the last fortnight when I saw this and The Whale. They were both so good. But A Man Called Otto on a hot summer night, outside at the small outdoor Rooftop Cinema in Perth was spectacular. I laughed and cried and was even a bit confused at my unexpected feelings at the end. Took a minute to hang out in my bean bag with the credits running afterwards, needed that in a kind of strange way. I don’t think Tom Hanks has ever made me feel like that before. I will remember this movie and as soon as I can I’ll watch it again so my husband can see it too.
I was having a driving test in a school bus with a stick shift. I did great. Didn’t back up at all and got going with no problems. Yes, it can be done. 😊
First of all, I have never been a Stephen Colbert fan. The opposite can be said for Tom Hanks, whom I’m a tremendous fan of all of his motion picture work.
And his work in “A man called Otto” clearly shows how completely thorough how much Tom did his homework on this project.
OUTSTANDING TOM!!
I love him real bad ❤
Thanks for your continuous love and support ❤❤
How long have you been a fan of mine?
*Loved Tom's story of driving a VW camper van in SF! My good friend had a VW Van back in 1970 and I still remember driving Frisco hills with stick! Yikes!*
Mariana "Marisol" was delightful. I fell in love.
I KNOW! Hanks was great in this film, but she positively lights up the screen. Her personality - so kind, loving, yet also direct and willing to let people see the truth about herself - it's the perfect sort of woman who "Otto" would grow to like, in spite of his grumpy self.
now THIS is how you promote a movie lmao.. just love him
Thanks for your continuous love and support Mae❤❤
How long have you been a fan of mine?
I read A Man Called Ove on a whim because the title hooked me in at my school library and it is one of the best books I’ve read I think about it often
I saw Swedish version of this movie..a very good one..
Tom Hanks on a rant is the best thing ever.
I was in the movie theater with my wife and I saw the poster for this movie and i said to my wife "look a movie about me.." I am looking forward to seeing it!
I love the manual driving talk! For me, maybe because I stick to small cars, (no pun intended)I always start in second unless I'm headed up.
My son bought me a smart TV for Christmas, I hate it! I with you Tom!
I like to say weird things around my smart tv because it's always listening. I think I would have been carted off to jail by Homeland Security if I lived in the USA
Wonderful book! Terrific adaptation from Hollywood. The shining star Maria. Thank you!!!
Omg! He said " what country are you in?" Woooow. But I LOVE TH.
Hello how are you doing,how long have you been a fan of mine
