Absolutely, Janelle should win an award too!

Daniel Craig was nominated for a Golden Globe.

@@SPORT2932 that's fantastic to know.

I still think Ana de Armas was robbed by only winning like one relatively minor award for her acting performance in Knives Out. She was fantastic, especially in the scene in Harlan's study.

@@fairy5668 Totally agree! Her silent acting on the steps outside of Harlan's study was award winning in my book. She has a great future.

he's a completely different person than he was when he was on WWE. It's insane how his acting stepped up this much he's so much fun to watch in anything he's involved in

And love to see how open and enthusiastic he is to learn! He wants to become an even better actor and it shows

He's got that big, tough-looking, yet soft-spoken thing going on that leads you to believe he's a big ol' teddy bear. I bet he gives great hugs.

Totally agree! The costume design was absolutely *fascinating* to me

They have phenomenal energy together. It would be so so good to see them in another movie together again.

This! Plus I think Janelle was also channeling TC with the l want the truth line! When I saw Norton with this look I jumped, TC and Norton are my two favorites!

@@nataliamisixroni5447 haha totally! When I saw the TC outfit on Miles I was like that meme of Leo Dicaprio sitting forward in a chair pointing at the screen 😂 I was so excited, I love little details like that and I especially love that it was never acknowledged by anyone in the movie, it was just for the people in the audience who got it.

Rian's said in interviews that the idea came from Ed Norton and Jenny Eagan; when he found out about it apparently thought "Paul's gonna kill me". Such a funny reference and the idea of young Miles being a Frank TJ Mackey devotee is just great. Also absolutely love the upside-down Rothko painting he has!

@@fingerprince_ I love that! 😄 Thanks for the info 👍 Paul Thomas Anderson should be stoked, it says a lot about his talent and cultural impact that he can create such instantly recognizable characters that people are still referencing decades later.

@@Qu33nMary444 I was watching this "Writer's Roundtable" (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntlgl5qq0Zilfpc.html) the other day which included Rian Johnson and when asked which living writer they most admire, PTA was the answer for half the writers there. Ranking artists based on "greatness" or whatever is silly, but Anderson's films hold a special place in my heart and it's lovely how much his genius is appreciated in the film world.

Hope so too. I enjoyed the commentary track on Knives Out.

What’s special about that?

people still use blu-ray??

@@Sky-pg8jm People who actually care about owning and preserving movies do, a concept you're apparently unfamiliar with

@@chief5611 That is a very rude phrasing wtf lol? I'm not surprised that people want physical copies of movies, I'm surprised that blu-ray specifically still exists because growing up I thought it'd be a fad and we'd just keep using normal dvds.

that and Moonlight both sold me that Janelle can act. I am happy to see her choosing her films wisely. Can't wait to see her turn as Josephine Baker and reuniting with A24 for the limited series on her. I know she will make Lynn Whitfield (who played Baker in the HBO TV movie) proud.

She was a scene stealer!

This is not an award film. It was good but not spectacular.

@@mith2946 Rian Johnson is the best murder mystery writer of our day. The top selling authors of all time are God (The Bible), Shakespeare, and then Agatha Christie, a murder mystery writer. If there’s a genre to win awards, it’s this one, and if there’s a movie to win in the genre, it’s this one.

@@PartiallyC0rrect I agree that it was a really good movie, and I liked it a lot, like, a ton, and the raw and sheer artistic talent at/and/on display here is simply unbelievable/unreal. That said, for some reason, it didn't really "click" for me, and I'm not sure why. Maybe it was the "dumb"ness of the core mystery that maybe had potential but in the end is really hard to dress up as something it isn't, sort of a rotting core of a story at the inside of this abso-freaking-lutely gorgeous outer crystalline shell. Maybe that's it. And with _that_ said, I definitely want this director to go on doing more in more genres. The first was a true delight that did get a lot closer to "click"ing with me (and I think it pretty much mostly did!), but I'd rather have genre exploration and expansion than guaranteed mediocre hits each time, so the risk of Glass Onion was well worth it. Agatha Christie on the other hand...I never felt entirely robbed by the story when I read it. One of my greatest prides is figuring out ~20%-26% of a truly gnarly mystery (the "on the links" one, I think) with sheer note taking and Poirot -esque conjecturing. I'm very proud of that, and I enjoy the challenge of Christie knowing that there's a way to truly figure it out with the information given, but also that the story is a real challenge that is well worth my time and energy to invest in.

agreed she had to do 3 roles, andi, helen, and helen acting as andi, and she did an amazing job at it

Well you've just made me more excited about more movies with this Southern gent 🤣

but blanc isnt the main character in either movie lol

i want 7

Benoit.

I didn’t realize it was him until the credits. His vibe was just so different.

Who's Leslie?

Yes

I hope there'll be a third one!

Can't wait for the tenth and twelveth.

@@anbu1325 Netflix has Rian for at *least* a third, plus another movie which may as well be a fourth :D

Rian really wanted it called A Benoit Blanc Mystery but Netflix went with A Knives Out Mystery

huh

Me too and I pointed it out to my husband. Glad I got to see this in the theater and just sharing the experience with others was amazing

Same! I was confused when miles said duke accidentally took the cup

👆 underrated comment

It won't be.

Both movies should retroactively get the caption "A Benoit Blanc Mystery" instead.

He definitely enjoyed working on this movie. This happens when good actor meets good director and script.

Have you gone back and watch the first one now? It's worth it

There’s one on Spotify

please netflix do that

There’s one on Spotify

He's an homage to many Great Detective characters of the past. You can also see a lot of the disarming goofiness of Hercule Poirot in him too, for example.

He's in this one. You mean you want him in the next one in a bigger role.

@@Largentina. No shit, everyone knows that's what he means Captain Obvious.

There are so many plotholes in this movie it's like a Swiss cheese.

onions, donuts…. seasons.. the cast…. He got alot to think on lol

It's actually one of his smartest moves. Invite the person you killed, so it's less suspicious. Why would you send a card to someone you know is dead? But he also made it a murder party right after committing murder, so his smarts kinda even out on that

There are two theories about this: 1) Miles sent Andi's invitation out after killing her (along with the ones to the other Disrupters) to allay suspicion, to pretend as if he didn't know anything was wrong and that he was at the island the whole time. 2) He sent the invitation out _before_ he killed Andi (he mentions it was a rush job), and it took so long to get to her house it arrived after she was dead and Helen was there to pick it up.

From the yacht scene, it seemed Bron and the disruptors knew Andy were typically invited to these getaways. Lionel said to Blanc, “it’s not why she was invited. It’s why did she show up”. By withholding the box, Miles could’ve prevented Helen and blanc from showing up to meddle. The news came out eventually, but the getaway was a way for him to hush up the disruptors. Miles was just blindsided by his own creation because he didn’t take enough precautions to cover his tracks. Didn’t take into consideration Helen would be around.

It's pretty clever to invite the person you just murdered to a party, because it implies you didn't even know they were dead.

Because she said it showed up 2 days after her sister died, I assumed he sent it before the murder took place, just to be an asshole, and didn’t bother to stop the delivery because cancelling her delivery before the death was announced would just expose he knew she was dead, because he killed her.
