      I get it. This is SUPER sensitive subject in the U.S. to this day. For obvious reasons. Any hint of the "N word" and some music as well most likely (the 2pac song during the shootout at Kandy's estate etc.) probably would get it taken down/blocked. So while I love watching reactors react to this, I know the trouble it could cause.

  • @TheJackKohler
    @TheJackKohler Рік тому +5

    Something important to remember about black powder weapons like the ones used in this movie and back in the wild west was that they were all quite large rounds, the Rifles were chambered in 45-70 and .45 long colt, and some of the big revolvers like the colt navy shown here was a .50 cal ball loaded with a percussion cap and powder. So those bullets are not quite based on penetration like most firearms nowadays, so if you got hit by one of those guns it would tear you apart, as shown in this film. It may be dramatized a bit but the damage those weapons did is very realistic.

      ​@@patrickevans9604 Tarantino played two characters in Django Unchained. First, Robert - or Bag Head #1 - in the scene where Spencer “Big Daddy” Bennet (Don Johnson) and all his henchmen go from discussing how to attack Dr. Schultz (Christoph Waltz) and Django (Jamie Foxx) to complaining about how badly done their bag-masks were. Later on in the story, he played Frankie, an Australian miner (with a terrible accent)

    I love Christoph Waltz's character in this film. It is almost like Tarantino got him back to play this character by telling him he would get the chance to (figuratively speaking) take out his character from Inglorious Basterds. The hook: both Hans Landa and Calvin Candie have these long, drawn-out monologues that are meant to sound like well-educated discussions on "the nature of things", until you back out of the tension of the scene and realize that what they are saying is absolutely monstrous, inhuman, and irredeemably evil.
    As Dr. Schultz said, "I couldn't resist."

    20:55 Apparently when Tarantino brought Jackson the script, Jackson said something like "you bring me this script when it's ten years too late for me to play the lead role, and you ask me to play the most despicable negro character in movie history?", Tarantino said 'yeah' and Jackson said 'alright then lets do it'. Can definitely see how he was going for 'despicable' with his portrayal.

    This movie is so incredibly awesome; the end gets all the cathartic headlines, but I love the setup the most, getting to know the doctor and watching him teach Django everything he needs to know to thrive as a bounty hunter, most importantly how to disarm his opponents with pure, unadulterated reason as we see in the last act.
    And I LOVE it when they get to Don Johnson's plantation and he introduces himself, Django AND the horses. It shows the deep-seeded decency the doctor has (his ease with shooting wanted criminals being an interesting facet of his decency), and it also explains why, when he said "he couldn't resist" when he shot Candie, it was - again - the literal truth. Candie was so vile, even knowing he was effectively killing himself in the process, he saw the singular opportunity to remove such a vile POS, responsible for the misery of so many others, as more than worth the exchange.

    And to answer your question, yes mandingo fighting was definitely a real thing back then. Also, you did hear right about Leo being hesitant to use such harshly racist language in the film because he wasn't sure how well it would go over with audiences but Samuel L Jackson talked him into the mindset by telling him if he held back viewers would know it and he'd be hated more for that than playing into the role.

    Trivia: Ending song, Theme Song from 1970 spaghetti western comedy, They Call Me Trinity(Trinity Series)… and Django’s name comes from another spaghetti western franchise self titled Django(1966)-- in fact the original Django(Franco Nero who also played General Ramon Esperanza in Die Hard 2), also makes a quick cameo appearance-- he’s the fine dressed gentleman at the bar, with the cotton white gloves(an Easter egg throwback to his character’s condition in the original film) when King Schultz and Django first meet Calvin Candie--that’s how he “knows” that the “D” in Django “is silent”. 😊 Also Leo actually did deeply cut his hand during the dinner scene and unintentionally splattered blood on Kerry Washington-- which is why her reaction looks so real-- that’s because it is legitimate shock… 😮

I *love* how Dr. Schultz wouldn't say "auf wiedersehen" to Candie because it meant 'til I see you again' because he never wanted to see him again. He wanted him completely gone. But then when Django says goodbye to Schultz he whispers "auf wiedersehen" to him because Schultz helped give him back everything he wanted, but sacrificed himself in the process. It's such an honorable tribute and I love the dynamic between the 2 of them. This is such a damn good movie. Tarantino has some really good movies.
