Akron is the Ancient Greek word for heaven..,

watched it earlier today and was honesty looking for a reason to watch it again thank you (I haven't even watched the video yet the title says enough)

Love this video so much

Llewyn noticed Dylan at the end...but he walked out to chase "a suit"...He sold out. The real sad ending is that Jean slept with Poppy to get him that gig, Poppy most certainly paid him, and he went out on the "sardine can" and missed out on the folk boom. And then he came back...(thats the real tragedy)

The Cat is Mike. point blank period.

So NOBODY sees the similarity between Dylan and the Davis character?!?!? They even sing songs of similar intent in the penultimate scene of the movie! Could it be that even if you do everything just right, follow all your advice, and TRY REAL HARD, 'success' may, NEVERTHELESS, still elude you?!?!?

That cat is so wonderful.🙂AAAWWww!!!So very adorable.😀😀😀😊

I will get the Inside Llewyn Davis dvd soon.🙂😀

In regards to your comment about him hating on other singers I think its him hating himself and so he hates other people trying to do the same thing. He can't give credit to other good singers because he doesn't see himself that way and he's insecure

I was born to play that role. It should've been me.

Possibly my favorite film ever.

What happened to this channel?

Song at 0:43?!? Pleaaaase

Definitely an underrated film from their catalogue, especially due to all the classic folk songs in it

Great breakdown. Just watched this for the 1st time and i cant stop thinking about it.

Love how you talk about adam Sandler's character for half the video but don't mention him on the acting list 😂 Great video btw find myself back here often

I just discovered this movie (shame on me, I was missing out big time)!! I’ve already watched it 3 times!! It’s so brilliant, Oscar Isaac is brilliant. Thank you for this video ❤️

The whole death is the guy in the alley is really cool Well spotted 👍great video

Great PTA breakdown

I just rewatched this on Amazon. Llewyn’s struggles can really get to ya as the soundtrack keeps getting better. I saw extra meaning in The Death of Queen Jane lyrics. Almost as though Llewyn can’t extract commercial value from his music without sacrificing its real art, as Jane’s baby can’t be removed without killing her. Something like that.

Nice to see bobs still keeping up his side of the deal with the commander in chief of the world here and the one we can’t see.what a straight shooting,stand up dude.I heard from my friend at CNN,he’ll be doing a special soon in support of the exciting mandatory vaccine

It wasn't the grim reaper it was an owl

This is my favorite movie of all time, and for a good reason: Every time I watch it I notice more details, and learn more about it because in the meantime, I've learned more about myself. It's a masterpiece!

No love for Inherent Vice?

“aspect ratio like the back of his hand?” 1:45

what is the track at 2:30?

Brilliant movie on so many levels: music, cinematography, characterization, dialogue, lighting, and story. Captures the NY folk scene era to perfection. Genius!

Too much tracking and panning, too dizzying

I honestly thought you were the narrator in Magnolia for a second 🤦‍♂️😂. You sound alike

This movie touched something really deep in my heart.

This video was great. I honestly thought this was from a channel like Lessons from the screenplay but I'm pleasantly surprised that it's not and is simply just a work of passion. Hope you come back and make more film analysis on KZbin.

"He enlists a steam kettle approach to suppressing the emotion that boils beneath his skin" Perfect way to describe Oscar Issac's performance in this film.

Bob Dylan is my favourite artist to ever exist and I like the few songs Oscar Isaac performs in this movie more than any of Bob Dylan's work... once again wishing Llewyn Davis was a real person so that I could hear more of his music

Great video

Under the Skin The Master The Lighthouse The Grand Budapest Hotel Wolf of Wall Street Blade Runner 2049 Birdman Whiplash Annihilation Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Some of the best of the decade imo :)

Great stuff! Thanks 👍

It's difficult to rewatch a lot because it is just so depressing. Like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - great movie, but I cannot bring myself to enjoy it that frequently, I have to be in the right mood.

Its slow pace, mood and understatedness is why I think I like it more than any other Coen Brothers movie, Then again it could be my fascination with the 1960s NYC folk scene. Its what I believe On The Road tried to do but failed miserably at, which is testament to how good the Coen brothers are

The Master is my top film of this decade. Requires multiple views. Its the only modern film that compares with Kubricks best works.

It's not the grim reaper, it's an owl lol

Hands down my favourite movie. First movie I have ever owned and I watch it probably once a month

More lanny

Some very on point observations here. Well done.

Anywhere else I'll be called a loser for this but I have seen this film maybe 3 dozen times. A road trip movie with broken up segments featuring a stellar cast all telling their own story in their own way with Llewyn and his guitar in the center of it all. Some of the scenes i play over and over again because it gives me comfort (John Goodman segment in the car and diner). It's like a friend who knows exactly what to say to me when i'm feeling alittle lonely or sad. The words that come out of the characters aren't necessarily happy or uplifting but that's what i love about the film. it's the vibe, the way llewyn's environment keeps changing and it's awful at times but after everything, there's still llewyn and his guitar. idk.. i'm just saying... love the film too.

I love this film

Great analysis. I love it. If I may add something to your part about the fight with mr. Hobby. I agree that it could be death, Llewyn is fighting. Although, in my eyes, after the firs viewing, I thought it was God. The Coen Brothers sometimes tend to get a little bit Biblical in their use of symbolism. Think about the big Lebowski. There is a story in the Bible where Jacob is to afraid to face his brother again. He stops his journey and he waits. At night an unknown stranger comes to Jacob and starts a fight with him. They fight till the morning. Then the stranger reveals his identity to Jacob. He is God. God gives Jacob a new name and a new blessing. From then on out Jacob is called Israel. The next morning he meets his brother again for the first time in years. This story was the first thing that popped into my mind after watching the ending of Inside Llewyn Davis. Llewyn is stuck, can't continue his journey becaus he's basically to afraid to face (the passing of) his brother. That's why he's actually dragging the cat with him the whole time. The cat is a symbol of his grieving. But at the end he won't let the cat escape, the cat stays where she is. He leaves it. Llewyn fights the stranger and after that he seems to have a new blessing, a new power inside him to continue his journey. As he, almost tenderly, says: "Au revoir!".

Number 1 basic of PTA would be his characters. You can't even argue otherwisem

Like a sadder, more subtle Barton Fink. The art vs commerce theme once again, with eerie absurd undercurrents curtesy of John Goodman. Just as Barton Fink strikes the pose of the hard boiled writer booking himself into a downbeat, sleazy hotel; Llewyn lives the romantic life of the beatnik poet. But like Barton, his pretentions are cruelly parodied, as reality refuses to comply with his romanticism. Hence, Llewyn's On the Road style odyssey to Chicago, turns into a grim road to nowhere. Likewise his attempt to work on a fishing boat, a day-job fit for a Beatnik poet - turns into a bureaucratic farce. Suggesting Romanticism is really just an artistic device, and has no connection with odd, surreal, vulgar reality. And like Barton Fink, he's self obsessed and doesn't care about people. Which is a major flaw for an artist, given art is ultimately about connecting with people. Llewyn, like Barton, doesn't connect with people. The 'people's only role to shut up and listen. I also like F Murray Abraham's turn. Abraham's most famous role being the envious musical mediocrity - Salieri, who sets out to destroy Amadeus. You get the sense that Abraham knows Llewyn has got talent, but maybe he's jealous of him, hence his unnecessary cruelty. Perhaps he himself is a failed musician.

Lanny, when you are saying "the best filmmakers on the planet", you are really speaking about USA, aren't you? (Anyway, PTA is in this group).

The most perfect movie I've ever seen...
