he won the Oscar for the wrong film

Tarantino needs to put DiCaprio in more of his films.

I know everyone talks about Leo's performance in this scene, but Hildy's reaction when he smashes the table with the hammer and screams "SOLD!" is amazing too.

the fact that this scene took six times and Dicaprio actually did truly injure his hand on the last time the shot was taken and never broke character is absolute true talent. when he smears his bleeding hand on Kerry Washington's face, i felt Dicaprio really captured the monster of his character Candy. excellent film and cast hands down.

Damn, what has Leo has to do for a Oscar? Break his fucking legs? Or maybe neck?

He literally, actually and factually smashed his hand or real glass and cut himself pretty badly, that is not prop blood that's Leo's blood and he did not break character - AMAZING!!!

Calvin was an absolute crazy person, from the relationship with his sister to the weird talk about dimples in skulls, dude is insane and Leonardo played him perfectly

EVERYONE plays their part FLAWLESSLY in this film. Tarantino may be rough around the edges, but his writing is brilliant. Foxx plays the vengeful bad ass freed slave to a T. Waltz plays the suave bounty hunter with balls of steel sharply. DiCaprio plays the sociopathic slaver beautifully. Jackson plays the sadistic, envious house slave and steals the show.

Leo needs to play more bad guys. He looks like he had a lot of fun with this role.

He wasn’t a total monster, he said the man had an exceptional beard

Leonardo Dicaprio, Samuel L Jackson, Christoph Waltz and Jamie Fox in one scene. This scene alone is a little masterpiece. Perfectly written, perfectly executed and probably one of the best improvised scenes ever!

"Wow i cant believe he can act and cut his hand at the same time" Said Everyone, Everywhere.

The way he just looks down, sees his hand full of blood, and lights up that cigarette while completely devoid of normal reflex, is one of the most badass moments in acting history.

This is the reason why I don't watch the Oscars. After Leo not winning it after this performance, I realized the Oscars is pure shit

I'll bet even Tarantino was stunned by the brilliance on display.

This will go down as one of the most incredible scenes in cinematic history. Unreal how everyone is on point.

Leo was simply a lucky kid in Titanic. He looked good and said his lines and did a fair job many actors could have done, but in this scene he shows he is a freaking incredible actor. He makes you hate his freaking ass.

To put how much they spent into perspective that’s about $244,000 in today’s money

The fact that he actually split his hand open on glass when smashing his hand down onto the table, and without stopping continued on with the scene using his blood as a prop and improvised it into this exact scene shows why Leonardo is such a professional to work with and why his one of the most talented actors to grace our screens One of the best improvised scenes in movie history in my opinion

Everyone in this cast has reached the pinnacle of excellence as performers. All these years later, it still feels like a gift to watch these scenes.

The fact that Leo's hand getting cut was unscripted and real makes this so much better

crazy to think that's real blood, he cut himself when he slammed his hand on the table, and just improvsied the rest. Leo is the best actor of our generation.

DiCaprio is great in this scene, but I really love Jackson's mannerisms as well; the way he moves and his facial expressions to seem like a bumbling, subservient fool. Stephen was really committed to his act, and Jackson portrays that beautifully.

“SOLD! To the man with the exceptional beard!” is probably the nicest thing Candie said.

As a Southerner Hollywood actors almost never accurately recreate a proper Southern accent. Oftentimes even very good actors sound silly, but Leo freakin’ nailed it.

"MAY I REMOVE MY HANDS OFF THE TABLETOP IN ORDER TO REMOVE OUR BILLFOLD?!" is an underrated quote lmao

Absolutely amazing scene.

The fact that Leo actually got hurt and didn’t break character really shows how good of an actor he is

Leo DiCaprio act is perfect in this scene.

Leonardo owned this movie.

Goosebumps, still after all these years.

This is one of the most legendary scenes in movie history and film history as well. Leo accidentally cut his hand smashing the glass then played it off like it was nothing then wiped his blood on Kerry Washington. Leo is one of the greatest actors of all time

I love how you can hear every little detail from the floor creaking to the crickets and even DiCaprio taking a drag of his cigarette. Exceptional!

I love how at 0:27 Leo looks at his hand like "damn I cut my hand pretty badly." but never shows any pain, doesn't break character, and deliver the best scene in the movie. That's what makes him one of the best actors in the world.

There was an interview were Leo said first 2 days of recording he messed up most of the lines, he said he was nervous and way uncomfortable saying some of the lines that they were the most frightening and scary and rude, he said Jamie confronted him, they sat down and had a heart to heart, they re-recorded and Leo never messed up again, his confidence was soaring.

I used to think Leo was overrated but the man can put on quite a performance and proved me wrong. Love this movie from top to bottom and will always enjoy watching every second of it.

You can see DiCaprio checking his hand at 0:26 while swiftly assessing the situation. After a pause of reflection he asks "Where were we?" which fits the context of the scene, but also seems like DiCaprio is literally asking the question, as if he just came back to the scene.

Wow Leo should consider playing the villain more often instead of the Hero because here he nails it as the bad guy

I love so much any gesture and movement he managed to create in this scene, it's so believable that it touches me

I keep coming back to this scene, so so so good!!!!

'Severly cuts hand' 'Responds as character would' 'Does not pause in dialog delivery' 'Maintains accent'

If the blood and face scene was improvise, Then Kerry Washington deserves praise to, given that she didn't freak out

Deliver all of the lines perfectly, with a cut full of blood on his hands, *that* is commitment.

Leo was brilliant in this film. One of his best performances

0:07 "IF YOU LIFT THOSE PALMS..." "Uh, Leo, you just slammed your hand into..." "OFF THAT TURTLE SHELL TABLETOP," "Oh, he's gonna keep going."

0:03 How teachers react when they see the class packing up to leave

I LOVE WHEN HE SAYS there's been a lot lies said around this dinner table but that you can believe!!😳😳 When he grabbed Kerry and said sit Cho ass in that got damn chair!!!😬

DCaprio really channeled his inner devil for this one. Well done! Very convincing portrayal

2:16 Samuel L Jackson is like " Damn it that white boy is a really good actor".

Just give him his damn Oscar.

He and Al Pacino are my favorite character performers.

One of the best ever scene of all Quentin's movies!

His real voice slips out and cracks at "Whats it gonna be doc?!"

Knowing that this is actually real blood makes the concerned faces of everyone and Broomhilda's reaction as he grabs her face much more intense to watch

All these guys should have gotten Oscar's for they're performance.

Amazing, amazing scene. One of the best in cinema history. All the actors were great but DiCaprio was incredible. As other posts here have commented he really did cut his hand in the scene, that's his real blood. How did he manage to play both Jack in Titanic and this disgusting psychopath...

What's it gonna be doc HUH!? WHAT'S IT GONNA BE!?

"What's it gonna be doc?" said monsier Candy calmly.

The fact he really cut his hand and kept going shows the authenticity

2:53 I don't know why I love that little voice crack, Calvin is so pissed off

THAT That is fucking Acting

0:27 "think of the oscar think of the oscar"

This entire movie was basically the Oscar Olympics & all well deserved especially Christophe Waltz , Leo & Samuel , they all deserved a supporting academy award , it's too bad they only give it to one person but as far as a single scene goes ......Leo's ten minute monologue without batting a single eye or missing a single line or ever breaking character & still freestyling literally 50% that scene by himself just to slam that hammer down & then throwing it in the viewers direction has to be the greatest 🎤 drop moment in the history of acting & cinema!!!! He even broke Samuel out of character & got him smiling & shaking his head up & down at the end like yeah he just did that😂

Kerri’s the real MVP for going through this scene take after take after take.

People keep saying that's real blood. It's true that there was a take where he cut his hand and bled. They decided to incorporate that idea into the movie, but used fake blood in subsequent takes. Believe me, there is no way they'd be allowed to smear real human blood on someone's face for a movie.

Fun fact: Leonardo was having a hard time saying that many n-bombs so off set Samuel l Jackson had encouraged him and told him “this is our every day life”

Leo DiCaprio, best villian performance

You watch it again and again and every time you catch yourself on edge... Masterful.

I dunno about DiCaprio's next movie (Revenant), but he should have won the Oscar right here. Those academy awards are a fucking joke.

The fact that Jennifer Laurence EVER won an Oscar and he didn't for this performance is beyond me.

This scene gave me goosebumps the first time I watched it just exceptional really just a great actor

This movie is just the best. All acting in it is phenomenal and so entertaining.

*The Oscar deserves Leonardo di Caprio.*

he cuts his hand on the table- and improvs it perefectly- and ends up integrating it into the scnee- wiping his blood onto her face- THAT is acting- so many actors just read lines and look good. this guy is the most promininet actor of his age for a good reason- he s the de niro of his generation because he can act his arse off.

Leo was absolute masterpiece here. The others were very good actors as well.. The movie is astonishingly good.

Even after all these years, this will still probably go down as my favorite singular scene in a movie of all time.

The voice crack when he yells “what’s it going to be doc!” 👌🏽😂

this scene had literally, blood, sweat and tears edit: thanks for all the likes true believers 🙏🏻

holy sheet. wow... just WOW!!! How did Leo not win an oscar for this role?

using the pain from smashing his hand on that real glass to fuel the anger that his character should have in this scene. Fucking phenomenal performance from DiCaprio. Simply incredible acting

What makes Leo Dicaprio different from all the rest is that despite his well known movie prescence and worldwide popularity he still manages to do an evil role so well, it makes you enraged at his character, like you want to reach into the screen and kill him with your bare hands. And THAT is why Leo deserves an Oscar. Because if you can play a role like this despite being known worldwide in several different movies, and STILL make people angry and absolutely HATE you on screen, you DESERVE that damn Oscar. Such a shame he keeps getting robbed. But Leo is too good for the Oscars anyway.

What makes this movie so great is how the actors managed to play so damn well despite the stigma. They were basically putting themselves on display as not just "fantasy murderers/rapists", but historically relevant evil personalities with which people hold very, very strong opinions. The fact they managed to play it through this flawlessly just speaks of great filmography.

That intense yell of Leo was very real as his hand actually went through that glass

Leo is an unbelievable actor. Love Him !! Rock on Kid

Samuel and Leo should have had a couple of Oscars for their performances. In fact the entire group of fabulous actors should have had a Tsunami of Oscars. Brilliant through and through all of them.

It would be VERY awkward for Calvin if that door was locked.

Leo is so incredible. I really feel he was not acting, but being Candy himself

Just Incase you guys were unaware, famous actor Leonardo DiCaprio (Calvin Candie) actually CUTS his real hand on real glass in this scene and keeps GOING. Just noticed nobody was talking about that little detail so I felt obliged to bring it up.

Screw the oscars, leonardo doesn't even need one. Because he's TOO good for them. Agree? :)

in this movie everyone had n word pass. Thanks for the likes everyone, this was a joke there is no such thing as n word pass. Treat everyone with same attitude you want to get treated😇

I love how right after he smashes the glass you can see Mr. Mogey slowly repeat the action of the table in front of him

Genius improve by the acidental bloody hand!!!

Damn, I can't decide who I loved more, DiCaprio or Waltz. They're both fantastic

3:22 made the scene complete.

Two great actors right there...Leo and Samuel

This is one of the most tense explosive scenes I have ever seen in film. And Leo did it with a cut hand. I can't imagine what Kerry was thinking when he smeared his blood on her face. That is some crazy shit. Unbelievable acting here.

I take back all the shit I said about Leo. Definitely one of the best actors I've ever seen

He owns every movie he does... How does he not get an Oscar!!! It's a fucking conspiracy lol

Hard to believe that this is the same guy playing sweet Jack on Titanic

Leo acting is marvelous - and later during interview many co -artists pointed out he was injured his hand still continued on the scene. we can up laud for his dedication.
