I took it to mean that Leo/Calvin actually doesnt believe in Phrenology. When he says, "If I took this hammer and bashed in your skull [you would have the same three dimples etc]" I think Hes saying that you force submission out of people through violence and intimidation and that he doesnt really even believe that Blacks and Whites are different at all.

Either he had plenty in inventory, or he rarely had guests of Schultz caliber. Being one of one I find it odd how he hacked it without a second thought, then again there may be some significance to that as well.

So he had to use a bonesaw to open the skull, but no sign of the brain 🤔 I thought Tarrentino was better than that!!

Vravo Bince indeed

yeah, how the hell did he not nominated for turning his eyes on another person? that's like genius acting only a few can reproduce.

BoustoTV I was referring to his entire performance in this film when I wondered why he wasn't nominated.

JimmySteller the reason he never got one of because he should have, he's actually a decent guy who didn't play along with the Hollywood pedophilic/homosexual cult.

All he had was a golden globe nomination

It was an Ok performance, not even the best one in that movie, probably 3rd after Jakson and Waltz

It’s more amazing that this role hasn’t imprinted into DiCaprio, say for instance how Jack Sparrow imprinted into Johnny Depp.

It shows how much care he took of the skull - to try and prove that his argument was correct - he needed to show the proof so desperately as he was never conflicted by anyone before. the way he concentrates on the skull when cutting it was 1. like he was doing a job in a building site hed done for years, 2. determined to prove this theory correct

​@@Vision.Target.Shoot1 I wonder how many skulls Calvin opened before he could confirm that they all had the same dimples and not just some of them?

+Mister Bubbles It also shows how pretentious and ignorant Candie really is: he tries to sound intelligent by spouting what was *even in his time* known to be junk science. I was surprised there wasn't a scene where Schultz tells Calvin that phrenology was BS, and that even a scientist who SUPPORTED slavery would have called him out.

The people in the south knew, to some extent, what their fate was going to be in regards to slavery years before the war started. By 1858 there was plenty of talk about abolition, it was just a matter of getting someone like Lincoln elected and people in power acting on it. Obviously there were many people in the south like Calvin who saw slavery like religion and were willing to die for it, the ones who weren’t blinded by arrogance knew the north was going to have a distinct advantage in the war. Southern male pride was and is a real thing, they had to practically trick themselves into not only thinking their cause was just, but that they had any chance of winning. When there’s a shift in society, it may feel sudden, but often times it’s actually more of a gradual process comprised of many smaller events that resemble dominoes. What keeps people from seeing the shift is their own arrogance. Whether the shift is positive or negative is in the eyes of the beholder, but it’s always happening.

Phrenology was actually somewhat correct it just. Was far too specific. Different parts of the Brain do different things this is mostly true. It’s just we are not yet able to pinpoint which part does what specifically. As we’d have to test very brutally on live healthy subjects. Something that is highly illegal.

@@Nothing-ch3dw What you're describing is just neuroscience. Phrenology is debunked psuedo-science which focused on the shape/size of the skull to explain brain functions. It was most commonly used to justify racist beliefs. Phrenology is 100% pseudo-science and even a brief online search will tell you as much.

Definitely intentional-it would seem a little off if they zoomed in and showed dimples, wouldn’t it? Like the film was validating Candie’s racist pseudoscience

@Иван Распутин It has not been for a long time. Feel free to go look it up, you don't need to take my word for it. It's pseudoscience my friend.

@Иван Распутин Ok but with respect, that isn't the way it works. Once something has been debunked, it is no longer science/medicine. It is by definition a separate thing now: pseudoscience. Something cannot be both science and pseudoscience. In the past phrenology may have been considered a branch of neuroscience, but today we know better.

The Academy hates crowd-pleasers. That's why blockbusters have shown up less and less as winners over time, except in categories like "Best Animated Film" which, let's be real, is an admission that the Academy thinks animated films can't cut it against "real" cinema.

I would put it second only to The Revenant.

What, I thought it was still mainstream until WW2. The germans used it as justification for their policies.

@@abnerdoon4902 Nazists used everything that could justify them. Remember that they kept saying that Darwin's theory says that the stronger lives and the weaker dies, to justify the supposed Aryan superiority, while the true evolutionary theory says that those who posses the best characteristics to survival manage to reproduce more than others, therefore, in the next generation, there will be a bigger fraction of population similar to them.

Discredited but not widely accepted by the people that would own slaves, obviously. Plenty of people believed it for much longer than the time this movie took place

I don't see insane. People used to actually believe in this phrenology stuff

Insane yes, but mostly corrupt. All the scenes at Candyland alluded to how this was an unhealthy yet insatiable practice.

I think the best description wouldn't be insane but mostly like a spoiled 8 year old in the body of an adult man with way too much authority. He simply never grew up, had no responsibilities (since Stephen ran everything) and instead viewed everything, even human lives, as his toys while trying to impress every adult around him.

It's being attempted now. Look up 8 White Identities.

coz the poor slaves had all belief and self esteem stripped out of them. They also were a mix of languages and cultures - never united

@@pierzing.glint1sh76,indeed

@@pierzing.glint1sh76 Also if old Ben did murder Calvin's father, he would have been brutally tortured to death like Django almost was. Calvin who has lived his entire life in absolute luxury and authority, and has a inflated sense of self importance and looks down on black people, he cannot understand why his slaves would fear rebelling, and just assumes its because they are too stupid to stand up for themselves.

Because religion was the first weapon used to stupefy them into submission.

The thing is many African American rebelled. There were many riots but slavery was legal across the country with many people involved.. After a few rebels(nate turn for instance) they restricted African Americans from reading, being in groups, ect...

GarlicPudding Calvin also mentions Galileo and people still think the earth is flat in 2020.

Actually the movie takes place in 1858 two years before the civil war

The scene with the hooded raid is also incorrect I think. The KKK was started after the civil war. They didn't need to hide their faces to kill black people prior to that.

There are people who still believe Climate change is a hoax, covids a hoax, and the Earth is flat.

@@weaselsoup3105 that wasnt the KKK it was just a mob who decided to use bags on their head.

That happens to everyone teeth after a certain time it becomes white but very brittle

Also the fact that he had no problem desecrating the guys skull just to try and prove a point

There are actually several differences that are easily discerned to determine the race of the skull. Granted, that reality isn't as dreamily supportive of fashionable narratives, so I understand what you tried to say.

@@youtubecensors5419 No one said that differences in skull physiognomy don't exist. What makes phrenology a pseudoscience is the idea that these differences correspond to appreciable differences in intelligence despite the lack of evidence. What makes racists like yourself horrible people is that you're willing to take that pseudoscience as an excuse to oppress your fellow man. Go back to 4chan.

@@youtubecensors5419 you can determine it by face structure, which is obviously going to be different just as it is different between two people of the same race. nobody said we've all got perfectly equal skeletons. but sure, get you racist dogwhistle about "fashionable narratives" in, loser. nobody likes you and you deserved more bullying in school

Obviously black people and white people have physiological differences, anyone with eyes can see they're differently colored just for starters. But there are physiological differences between white people with blue eyes and white people with brown eyes - it doesn't mean that one is inherently smarter than the other.

Skulls are the thing that carries people. You might as well greet a car when it pulls into the driveway.

Easier to separate oneself once the flesh is removed, however some still have the awareness to make that connection.

$cience

The wider (and very real) context though was that lots of people believed in this junk. Remember this was a time when it was important to look learned in the ways of science; upper-class people would attend scientific lectures, autopsies and surgeries, and read scientific texts. As social backlash against slavery grew, there was a growing movement to intellectualise white supremacy, to use newfangled ideas of the time like anatomy and Darwinist evolution to justify it. That's the sort of environment in which phrenology formed. They literally turned racism into a science, and people of Candie's ilk, the rich, educated, self-styled intellectuals, readily embraced these new, hot ideas, as people who "understood science". It was entirely possible for a person like Candie to think of themselves as the supreme intellectual, even though (as the movie sets up so well) he never left his estate in backwoods Mississippi and didn't even know the French author he claimed to be a fan of and whose books adorned his shelves was black. It wouldn't have mattered; these people legitimised the science they believed in and the science in turn legitimised them. You wouldn't even _know_ you were ignorant, not when the brightest minds of the day were literally telling you you were the supreme being. White supremacy has always been this sort of circle-jerk and it's sad to say that, even to this day, there are people who still behave this way. It may not be phrenology, but they'll find some other pseudo-science like IQ to latch onto and keep justifying their ideology.

You're just mad that black people have that skull trait. Sometimes life is what it is and is done for a reason. Not all things are equal and maybe not all humans need to be equal. Some humans are built different than others. Stop trying to deny that.

My good fellow do you have any evidence to back up what you just said ? I understand you white supremacists like to think of yourselves as men of science, but to proof that something is true you need this tiny little thing called evidence. Can you provide any evidence? why are black people not equal to white people ? I’ve met plenty of black people in my life who have displayed a significant amount of intelligence well beyond the supposedly superior white people around them. Please explain your logic, because I always see these claims but rarely is there any evidence, and if there’s evidence it’s usually either pseudoscience or the words of someone totally unqualified to talk about anything. And I also have a question for you, would you like to be a slave ? to have someone else control everything that you do? I’m certain that you would not. Of course I don’t expect you to reply to this, I mean how could you, anything you say will only make you sound more nonsensical than you already do.

​@Ivan Valentin what

@@themediumcheese exactly what I said. All humans are not built the same way and are not equal. Some humans are built with brains which are different than other humans. Nature doesn't give a shit about how you feel. It only serves purpose to preserve life and in this case it made black people's brains to have a more obedience. Along with physical gifts these traits make for great slaves. Now do I condone slavery? No. But black people were built this way for a reason.
