@@Danceswithfishes truth is her patois is very old. Jamaican Patois is always evolving and sounds very different from it did in her time But you can tell she is definitely Jamaicn and lived here. As for his patois it's a little more complicated. Because ff he was speaking it fully most of the audience wouldn't understand a thing. It's really TV patios, But he captured a lot of the nuances you just couldn't know unless he was taught. The impressive part, as weird as it is, isn't really the delivery but the preparation. And only Jamaicans would notice.

The way the actress mastered the rapid changes in mood from terror to supplication is just sublime.

I think whether or not brad pitt did a perfect job with the patois this is a great example of great scene writing, and him doing the accent is handled quite reverently. it's not mocking the accent or using it as a gimmick it's showing us how death has been everywhere and it's part of everyone and everything. it's something that connects everyone, and isn't that a good reminder?

[@BelmontClan]

@Katie I’m often reminded of the cartoon The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy with Grim being Jamaican. So perfect and iconic, death is wise but lost 2 a couple of kids to be their best friend for all eternity. And on Lucifer, Uriel aka Death pretends to be a ghost and talks to Ella Lopez as her friend. And on Supernatural- Billie the reaper becomes the new Death who will be the one to reap God. Plus on Billy and Mandy there is a colorful bend of supernatural and divine characters - a hunter is dating Eris the goddess of chaos while she does a ditzy valley girl routine.

This scene breaks me like nothing else. I'm half Jamaican but was raised in rural Midwestern US, and since my father was pretty absent I didn't really have a link to Jamaican culture outside of my grandmother. As much as she cherished me, Patois always felt like a barrier between us. Since it straddles the line between language and dialect, it was hard for my family to justify properly teaching it to their children, especially given how isolated we were from a larger Caribbean community. Patois was how she felt most comfortable relating to people, but I could never use it to relate to her. As friends and relatives the same age as her died off, she began to use it less and less before pretty much dropping it. In her last few years of her life, I could understand just how isolated she felt. She had immense pain from aging, but there was nobody left with whom she could speak candidly about it. I really really wished I could do that for her. The linguistic concept of this scene plays out like one of the conversations I imagined between us. Love you, grandma.

@@mehchocolate1257 A patois in general is a sort of halfway-between language, with words from one or more languages, and grammatical rules also split between them both. It's an early step to the creation of an entirely new language. When they are talking about Patois, capitalized, they specifically mean the English-French-Bantu-Yoruba patois from the Caribbean islands. That's where linguists first realized that it was its own thing, instead of calling it a 'debased' form of whichever language was higher status.

Regardless of whether Brad Pitt can speak Jamaican patois well or not, this is a superb scene in a wonderful film. I don't know why this movie took such an unholy amount of shit when it was released. I have watched it a dozen times and it never ceases to hold me spellbound. It is one of the very few movies made in Hollywood which you could call 'metaphysical' in intent - it doesn't shy away from lucidly and intelligently dealing with themes you almost never see discussed in movies; fate, the nature of death, the possibility of immortality, the nature of free will, the power of transformative love....

Because you're no Brad

[@CreepyScotchTape]

its not actually an accent, he's speaking a language called Patois. It was derived from English by the slaves in jamaica, like a dialect, which is why it sounds like an accent.

[@baskervillebee5748]

He was so pretty you forget how good an actor he was. Legends Of The Fall

[@AnnaLVajda]

He was great in Snatch and Fight club too but those films were violent and overlooked. I think he gets snubbed for awards because he is so stunning too though. Really has there ever been a better looking actor? Paul Newman had a beautiful face and eyes but Brads face and body OMG.

[@anuncolonizedmind6296]

He is beautiful, I remember the first time I saw him in interview with a vampire. His lips are perfect 😍

[@kaybutterflyz]

Yes! Legends of the Fall is my favorite movie! ❤️🎥☺️

Pitt is really the Anti pretty boy. Dude could have easily done 30 romantic comedies and no one would say boo. But he's always taken serious and diverse roles, sometimes for very little money.

[@mannydavis7708]

I remember reading once about Brad Pitt having the misfortune of being a character actor trapped in a leading mans body.

This scene helped comfort me a little. My Uncle died just a week ago. My cousin was telling me about how he would sometimes talk to people as he lay in his bed. He would be talking to two of his brothers who had passed on decades prior, and to my Grandmother. He would say to them that he was coming, but they'd have to wait a bit more for him.

Whoever wrote this scene was a absolute GENIUS

[@amandadunn1238]

One of my favorite scenes!!! Brad is a truly amazing actor!!! And the way the lady's face goes from pain to peace is just beautiful! Her whole face lights up. The compassion that "Death" shows is comforting even though it's just a movie.

“Everyting gwarn be irie” 😂😂😂😂 how is this not a meme already?

[@suzieq5174]

make it one :-)

[@MultiAsssasin]

TheHilikus89 it is a common sayin

[@TheHilikus89]

MultiAsssasin I know I’m Jamaican

[@BabyFoodChewer]

Yeah maybe i'm just really immature but this whole scene is very hard to take seriously. Who ever wrote this into the script couldn't be any more clueless

[@Alcove_Dream]

Someone should make this a meme

[@ZannNewman]

I almost expected her to drop dead when he told her to close her eyes...

[@ptbot3294]

I thought he was gonna pull out a knife and stab stab stab, quickly without anyone seeing, and then walk away.

This is a very touching scene. Death isn't mean or evil, he's just doing a job. Death has compassion and sympathy for the old lady. To top it all, the old lady ends up smiling and getting some measure of reassurance and peace.

[@christopherharris6145]

The violins start to play and tears fill my eyes. This is one of many wonderful scenes in this film. Meet Joe Black is high on my list of favorite movies

[@SubRosaUSA]

The violins start right on his blink when he see in his eyes that he feels her pain and wants to help.

[@SoulfoodSeminars]

When he called her “Sista,” my heart melted. ❤️🙏🏾❤️ I wonder did she coach him for this scene? 🤷🏾❤️

[@2013LPN]

This is actually a funny scene. At first she was scared of him and dying, when she realized that he was actually good.....she tried to sucker him and was was like yooooo take me with you to that next place. He was like naw, its not time but it looks like this. I 'll come get you soon though. This was sweet.

[@fanuatanumamea2196]

i love this scene even more after it was xplained to me that he didnt take the pain away he just showed her a glimpse of "that next place" beautiful

[@kuroroluxifer8321]

0:14 He looked so amused and impressed by the fact that the lady could tell straight up that he wasn't human.

[@DM-bv9uh]

Granny: "Mek it go away." Death: "Mi can't, Sista." Granny: "You can, Mister." Imagine being so politely assertive to the reaper of souls lol.

[@ultrafloss492]

😂👌🏽

[@panther196321]

She's old In pain And dying In her eyes, it doesn't matter.

[@RetroFrito]

@Artimus my interpretation is that he showed her a brief vision of the next place. And then told her soon. While it did not ease her pain, it did help her to feel better about having something to look forward to

[@KeyasiaBailey]

It’s called being Jamaican 😂 No fear in there souls

[@SohanDsouza]

Not like she has anything to lose. 🤷‍♂️

[@Konghammer1]

An absolutely beautiful gem of a movie and some of Brad's best work IMO. This movie deserved wayyy more attention then it got.

[@christophersmith5264]

Man this was a tear jerking moment her smile and relief was so genuine.
