Scenes women will never understand.

If I didn't already know Kubrick was a total hack I'd think this scene is trying to be surreal, because it's fucking shit.
>>85233949
The delivery of the lines in this scene is so bizarre. This isn't even debatable.
>>85234056
It's surrealist you r-tard.
>>85233949
pvt pyle = animal mother
>>85233949
>>85234056
I remember reading somewhere that Kubrick berated the actor who played Animal Mother constantly in this scene after each take. The actor got real pissed and asked something along the lines of "What the fuck am I supposed to do?" and Kubrick from behind the lens said "How about some better acting"
I can only assume the actor delivered the lines normally the first few times only to be forced to change it up constantly for Kubrick. I think he got the desired effect, as the scene comes off very surreal and very memorable.
>>85234127
Would you have participated in Pyle's beating?
>>85234289
Absolutely.
He never would have transformed into animal mother without severe trauma
>>85234207
Did an actor rape Kubrick's mom or something
>>85234207
Kubrick is known for dozens of takes per scene.
Though D'onofrio has stated that he typically got his shots done in less than 10 takes, which comparatively was much fewer than most of the other actors in his section of the film. (KPCS)
>>85233949
>>85234342
Maybe. People who talk about Kubrick remember him very fondly as a warm person, I think all the mistreatment served a purpose (to his mind at least).
>>85234425
That's because D'onofrio is actually a good actor.
>>85234483
could be - but at the time he was still taking acting classes and working as a bouncer - he basically lucked into the role and it turned out he was great
>>85234425
Yeah because D'onofrio delivered a top 3 Kubrick performance easily, Kubrick was probably mystified.
I genuinely don't understand that scene.
I mean I somewhat understand it, banter to distract from the horrors of war but why was the guy talking like that?
Reading this thread it was apparently on purpose so nevermind.
>>85234425
Yeah I think Kubrick had very specific things in mind on what he wanted to convey with each scene. Most directors do multiple takes to ensure a good shot and to have a selection of shots to choose from. But it seems like Kubrick does takes until he gets exactly what he wants.
D'onofrio probably knew what Kubrick's vision was and what he was going for each time. He nailed it.
>>85234586
I'm imagining the scene with completely "normal" or "vanilla" delivery and it just doesn't work. Not quite sure why though.
>>85234586
It's a trademark reptilian-esque scene from Kubrick
>>85234650
Can you elaborate? I'm genuinely curious to what the fuck you're talking about.
>>85234679
That scene feels very cold and otherworldly, it has everything, the odd delivery, the prolonged stare, "reptillian" is just a way to describe Kubrick's vibe
>>85234609
actually I dont think he did know
(basing this on his interview on kpcs)
but on his own initiative, after reading the script he decided to play pyle as a stooge that turns into a monster - so he started watching a lot of old monster movies (cheney/karloff/lugosi) and decided to use them as templates

he was fast!
such a fucking shit movie
I loved the first half, but the moment they go to Vietnam it becomes absolute shit. Lost all my faith in Kubrick after it.
>>85235449
its the opposite for me, fuck the first half
>>85234010
I always thought their strange delivery was just them fucking around. I don't think they were ever actually going to fight.
>>85233949
I was in the thread that inspired this thread like 3 days ago

Isn't it fun to be contrarian

How did you not have a blast watching D'Onofrio act circles around everyone?

What if they had really meaty flaps?

Ermey's scenes were done in one or two takes.
>>85237617
because he's one of the only actors that Kubrick let improvise. The guy didn't even have to act, he was just doing what he used to do for a job.
>>85235081
because he ran away and jumped onto a motorcycle?
>>85237893
No, he stopped to show off some martial arts moves to challenge Joker.

ITT: retards who don't know what surrealism is.
>>85234127
I've heard this before. How though?
>>85233949
It took me too long to realize that the whole "why was their delivery so weird" is a new "why did Marv turn into a skeleton?"
>>85234586
It's during a portion of the movie thats about war and the media. Vietnam was the first heavily televised war. Hence, in the next scene, we see television interviews and cameras filming a battle. However, this is still just a representation of war, not the real thing, and is distorted to fit the narrative.
Joker answers that he's seen combat on TV, to infuriate Animal Mother. The other crew members laugh at their responses, the scene is reminiscent of a television sitcom with a laugh-track, complete with witty one-liners. One of the most genius scenes in the movie.
FMJ is a 10/10 kurbick film
The tension between the two almost felt like homolust in this scene. It looked like they were about to start sucking each other's cocks right then and there.
>>85242082
I feel the same way about Barry Lyndon and this character. Every time I rewatch the movie I find evidence that Barry was a fag the whole time.

Every delivery by Animal Mother is fucking weird. It's like he's high or something.

>>85237948
two things I've always thought about this scene
1) Joker didn't really care about the camera, because they probably had a surplus of cameras in the marines. maybe the vietnamese guy could feed his family for a month after selling it.
2) Joker imitated the martial arts shit afterward to show how little he thinks of chink culture. fuck your lame karate shit, we've got copters and napalm.
