Timothée Chalamet discussing 'The King'| #AcademyConversations ►► kzbin.infos7YJlLB1yUY

[@Robin22.]

"for the one who saw the king already, THIS is proof that timothée is clearly one of the best actor of his generation. see how his voice, body language even his gaze are different from the role of king henry V? that's acting! I'm so proud of him". This is a comment from another video that someone said about this talented man and I couldn't agree more. It amazes me how talented Timothée really is. Proud of him, Oscars.

[@cmahima]

A huge range of emotions are always available to him to express, and that too so effortlessly. He's a natural talent.

[@johnkaylor8670]

@@cmahima You hit on a very key point about Timmy. He simply has a wonderful range of deeply expressive emotions he can project - genuinely strongly and profoundly. And THAT is marvelous to behold.

[@rubyrose6460]

How different is Timothée Chalamet from his character in The King is jus amazing. How he deal to change completely to portray someone, that is what being an actor means.

[@gemelwalters2942]

what sucks is most studios probably wouldn't have green-lighted a film like this because it's not a tentpole BILLION dollar movie. I'm glad films like these can find a home on Netflix at least

[@dasit1965]

It’s also not action driven, which for a movie that takes place in this time period means most studios won’t make it

[@starlisejun.from.1799]

I love Timothée Chalamet not just because his looks but because his personality. He is so funny and such a good actor. I truly don’t think he’s overrated I think he deserves everything he gets.

[@johnkaylor8670]

Yes. His qualities are subtly profound. In a truly unique way.

[@angelicapsh]

they just cant accept the fact that hes talented.

[@ljhoats]

I hope he doesn't change. I wasn't a fan of him starting to smoke at the Beyonce's concert when no one else was allowed.

[@elijahalbiston]

This has actually aged pretty well

[@slipperysnail130]

What I love about Timmy is that he’s so shy and awkward n goofy when he’s not on the screen but when he’s acting something just transforms!🤩 that’s when u know they’re good, he’s so talented and I just love him ughhh

[@blackrpatz]

I've watched it twice now, this film may be my new favorite timothée is going places, I also loved how Pattinson seemed a bit sadistic in this performance as well

[@killmydreamdorothy8800]

Timmy, what a great actor, person, human being. He’s so humble. I hope he never changes with his inevitable fame and success.

[@judyboo6462]

the War speech was Epic

[@maxmusic5380]

Robert Pattinson also should have been there, he’s on an Oscar streak

[@BlakeTedKord]

He’s was there for Lighthouse. Schedule overlap. He had to support 1 out of the 2 he was in cuz he’s just 1 person.

[@subzerowins31]

Plus he's busy, shooting for Tenet, then he has to start for Batman, dude is just 1 guy there's only so much he can do

[@randomfandomcosplay7683]

yeah theres no interviews of timothee and robert together at all

[@elijahalbiston]

Pattinson really went from the King, The Lighthouse, Tenet, to The Batman. What a great streak in a short time

[@mikaylaokeefe9004]

I don’t get how someone can be so beautiful and perfect

[@n0zenzur]

Too skinny

[@aude2896]

Ofer Mizrahi body shaming 😍😍😍

[@Lionhearted626]

So many impressive speeches and moving moments in the movie but it officially showed me how great is Timothée’s acting.

[@hollybeamon3243]

Timothee Chalamet is a beyond understanding brilliant actor. He's 1 of the great 1's. Brad Pitt, Al Pacino, Leonardo DiCaprio, Woody Allen & other big names, all want to work with him because he can act & of course, he's GORGEOUS.🏆

[@SavlovesNiallHoran34]

The music for this movie was amazinggg much respect to the composer

[@KSfan4ever]

Agree! The music was epic and fantastic.

[@sirwi11iam]

So powerful.

[@UrWatchinDaMaster]

the interviewer did a great job. he asked great inquisitive questions, held a pleasant speech cadence, and was quite respectful of each interviewee.

[@20mathilda]

I fall in love when he said : Toxic masculinity. This guy GOD. Thank you. It's soooooooo pleasant and sweet to have a man talking about that. Thank you. You have such a highly intelligence and emotionnal.

[@danielbroers2918]

Wow, when I watched the film for the first time recently, I fell in love, and I thought "What a dark, haunting soundtrack. So transporting and evocative of the late medieval period, and yet it would be just as at home in a grim-dark sci fi film set in the far future." - Then to actually hear Nicholas Britell say basically that was his intention is really refreshing, he's excellent at creating imagery and effectively communicating with his music. Anyone who hasn't seen The King should definitely watch it. This and Dune are my favourite films in years. Also have to mention, I had no conscious exposure to Timothée Chalamet prior to either of them and now I would have to say I'm an avid fan.

[@vanivarghese3092]

Here for Timothee chalamet ♥️ 4:22

[@natsumi9331]

Thanks yaar

[@tonywebb1403]

im super exdited for dune after seeing his performance in the king

[@MilkshakeCowboy]

That is why I am here. I watched The King and was really impressed by TM so I looked him up and when I saw he was cast to play Paul Atreides my hype for the film went up. Dune is not easy but he is an excellent choice after seeing what he did in The King.

[@sarahayala7155]

Same

[@HBarnill]

The new Leo there, folks.

[@ronniecaron6827]

and the new Cary Grant , Spencer Tracy, James Dean, Jimmy Stewart ect.

[@marshallzane7735]

The first Timothee

[@ronniecaron6827]

@@marshallzane7735 He's definitely an original.

[@Geronimo_Jehoshaphat]

More like the new Montgomery Cliff.

[@kgaming5977]

Sorry but Timmy is no where near Leo.

[@Tbrownie116]

Robert Pattinson well cast for the part he played, who knew just 20 minutes in the movie and he killed it. He is truly a actor that can play many characters, I see great things in his future...

[@backyardspedlords2381]

A very under appreciated movie.

[@jonathannoveloescalera8043]

the music in the film is great

[@Visforelvenshireling]

Yes! I'm so glad someone interviewed the composer! Spot on score!

[@grechen9518]

timmy is too beautiful to be real

I’m waiting for The King on netflix in November 1! ❤️

[@fatimabarrie998]

Sameeeee

[@20mathilda]

The music of the movie is actually the main character, absolutely intense and soooo beautiful, it accompanies all the scenes. I listen to theses often.

The guy who was laughing a lot has the same laugh as the joker

[@paigedowd8171]

timmys hair in this is perfection

[@aaronmoiche330]

The best interviews don’t last, such well researched and amazing questions

[@maggie14411331]

Netflix has too many contenders this year, so they are not really pushing The King, but in the good old day, this intelligently updated Shakespeare play Henry V mixed with semi-historic drama is classic filmmaking, and should be a serious Oscar contender across board including BP, BD, Screenplay (most deserving imho), BA (Chalamet), BSA (Harris and Edgerton), Original Score, CD, PD, Cinematography and possibly BSActress (LR Depp). I hope it's not completely overlooked by the Academy this award season.

[@himamamo]

All of them did amazing on this movie 👏🏾💕

[@EM-nx9fs]

Just watched it and omg!

[@emiliobello2429]

I saw the thumbnail and Timothee Chalamet looks like a teenager here

[@tommyhardman8883]

watched the movie last night.really really loved it.good job guys...

[@RideMyBMW]

"a toast... for your little victory, no?" :D :D :D

[@AbcDef-ww2gy]

I've seen The King. It's a great film which has something important to say, but it changes so much from the original that Shakespeare purists are bound to be upset. Therefore don't expect it to be at the Oscars, but expect Timothee to get a Best Supporting Actor nomination for Little Women.

[@jiznimore]

So enjoyable to watch and listen to them, great professionals.

[@chrisheeran]

Incredible

Gran película, increible actuación de Timothee

[@itiswhatitis5455]

fck me that hair is dripping

[@cupofboba3388]

i don’t bout others but I actually wasn’t attracted to him looks-wise and I also didn’t get the hype back then when he blowed up the internet. he was just an American actor like the others to me which was why I had no interest in him whatsoever. But 2 weeks ago I decided to watch CMBYN when I scrolled through Netflix and oh boy, I fell right there for him. Now I’m obsessed, I’ve watched all the movies he starred in, binged all the interviews and podcasts here on yt and currently in a crisis cos there’s literally nothing more to watch.

[@emiliobello2429]

French American

[@avely4163]

Same! But I came here after I saw him in Dune 🥰 And now i can't stop watching his films and interviews... Omg it's unhealthy obsession 😁

[@johnkaylor8670]

It really bothers me about Timmy being concerned about his contrast to Laurence Olivier. He and Olivier are two entirely different actors. I am older and grew up watching Olivier and I can tell you that I was impressed with Olivier's 'polished' degree of acting and his thorough command of language in a movie. Olivier was a rhetorical master. But Olivier lacked Timmy's beautiful deep and marvelously expressive screen charisma. Timmy can express more emotion in a few words than Olivier could in 50. So Timmy should not feel he needed to 'challange' Olivier's approach to perfoming in order to produce a beautiful and great performance of his own.

[@sriharsha5036]

It is a great movie

[@ritaholdorff601]

“..... a ball?”

[@dougpiranha3619]

"Academy Conversations," a risible concept in theory providing few laughs in practice. Those onstage seem to find their material more amusing than we do.

[@AmirKhan-he6cw]

This movie was shockingly great!

[@justusing6192]

*WHERE IS ROBERT?*

[@sirwi11iam]

Absolutely beautiful film, on all fronts. Totally historically inaccurate but a great film nonetheless.

[@ygfamilyfreak]

im so sorry but it was so hard for me to follow what the producers were saying because they stammered so much in their answers it was kinda hard to focus. idk maybe more prep? love love love the movie tho major slay

[@devinmichaelroberts9954]

it was good.. but not nearly as good as it could have been... I was somewhat entertained but not really moved.

[@guihsm6394]

Firts Brazil

[@Feoktistovs]

Academy Conversation but it wasn't even Nominated for an Oscar! 😂

[@Lefab3470]

I enjoy movies respecting History....beyond actors performance, this movie is a big shit: the director and the scenarist have totally re- created personality of historic characters : for example your english king was an absolute bastard, different from the king in the movie...after viewed this shit, Agincourt museum director said it was destroying all theirs efforts from years to make a comprehension of this medieval period....so read yours histoy books before telling its amazing...

[@saturnascendz]

Straight white male cast. I hope they win, but with today's award show "pandering contest" I don't think the odds are in their favor.

[@lilchaos4792]

They lost

[@lilchaos4792]

Weren't even nominated

[@damienpatton1680]

the music was the weakest part - and the composer's jumbled explanation partially explains why

[@Geronimo_Jehoshaphat]

Wrong

[@balalaikadrumbeat3444]

Strongly disagree! The music was beautifully dark! It gut perfectly to the movie!

[@fatimabarrie998]

This is not academy worthy💀 I mean it’s okay but not Oscar worthy... just give Joaquin Phoenix his Oscar and stop wasting everyone’s time.

[@BARBRAPEACE]

STFU, JUST STFUUUU PLEASEEEEEE I LOVE JOAQUIN BUT CAN YOUUUU PLEASEEEE

[@keirmarbasilio6231]

I'm a Joaquin Phoenix fan, he's one of the best working today. Fans like John are making me root hard for Adam Driver this year. (And Timothee).

[@sara78889]

Right 👏👏👏👏

[@BARBRAPEACE]

Keir Mariano Basilio right? joaquin doesn't deserve this kind of annoying fans

[@fatimabarrie998]

Keir Mariano Basilio 😂😂😂😂😂

[@SreeragKMvvgghh]

C'mon. It was good of course, but not that great. I wanted more of Pattinson and Edgerton. Chalamet also struggles in several scenes, though he's really good in general. The best part of this movie was Lily Rose Depp who stole the show with her less than 10 minute role.

[@hamdi002]

Really disappointing film :/

[@SaraAhmed-kk6ex]

Why

[@roverwaters3875]

weak movie

[@n0zenzur]

This Chalamet dude is very progressive it seem. By the way he talk and by the way he usally dress (Not this time, thank God) It is awful !

[@HollyandChanel]

I mean, his first major role was a gay teen in the 1980s.

[@Sarah-zs5fo]

You got a problem with Timmy cause I’ll fight u right here right now
