Never expected “You can’t fly jets if your colourblind” to be one of the most devastating lines in a movie

[@GonzoCiosain]

If I could say one thing to that kid in that movie, I'd say this: "So you can't be a fighter pilot. That sucks. Too bad you can now only be anything else! That's what your buddy Nietzsche would tell you! My grandfather was a fighter pilot. Was. He died 20 years before I was born. Trust me, you don't want to be a fighter pilot."

[@pete_lind]

You can get daylight pilot license even if you are severe colorblind, for non commercial pilot, it's the first pilot license you get. Night time flying is separate , where you fly by instruments and you must be able to separate red and green lights . Then single and multi engine commercial licenses, Helicopter licenses are separate too. Military jet pilot not a change .

[@GonzoCiosain]

@@pete_lind Exactly! Or, better yet, get a Commercial Driver's License, and a Passport, and sign up to be a driver for a music related touring logistics company! Or, just go watch "Muppet Treasure Island" and REALLY listen to the lyrics when Long John Silver (played by Tim Curry) starts singing later in the movie!

[@shainewhite2781]

RIP, Alan Arkin, 1934-2023. He took home the Best Supporting Actor for his role in the movie.

[@flightdub6056]

Totally deserved it. Somehow the funniest in the movie and also almost the heart of it at the same time (if Olive didn’t exist)

[@MarcosElMalo2]

The first movie I ever saw him in was Freebie and the Bean, where he teamed up with James Caan. If you come across it, it’s worth seeing.

[@aerynoftalyn1307]

They should watch Argo. Alan Arkin was fantastic in that as well.

[@MrDman21]

🙏🏽

[@uma.n2680]

I saw him in Wait Until Dark 1967 with Audrey Hepburn, and he was so young, and what an amazing performance.

[@Paxford0502]

Steve Carrell perfectly showed us how a Proust scholar runs.

[@ferchrissakes]

I know Proust scholars. Never seen them run. But yes.

[@MarcosElMalo2]

In an alternative universe where spiders are documentarians, Spider Zefrank concludes his video on Proust scholars with, “that’s how Proust scholars do”.

[@KronnangDunn]

He just runs like Harrison Ford.... and Eli Wallach.

[@joshuacoldwater]

@@ferchrissakesI also know Proust scholars, wasn’t aware they could run.

[@KandiStomper]

​@@ferchrissakes lmao I was thinking "you've seen one run before?" as well. 😂

[@beterbomen]

One thing I took from this movie is a part they sadly cut out. When Olive says "I don't want to be a loser, daddy hates losers," the grandpa responds with probably the most insightfull thing he says in the whole movie: "Losers aren't people who lose. Losers are people who are so afraid of not winning that they don't even try in the first place. You tried, so you're not a loser."

[@frogofbrass382]

Alan Arkin was such a sweet man. During the scene with Abigail where she cries in the hotel room, he immediately yelled cut concerned about her, until she explained that she was acting, which cracked him up. He made certain that during the scene in the van where he gave Dano's character colorful advice of relationships, that Abigail's headphones were turned up so she couldn't hear and would check before each take. At the world premiere, he asked her mother to take her out of the theater at that scene as well.

[@DJM2.0]

This movie was a cathartic release for My mother and I; dad passed away and we were obviously depressed (gf broke up with Me then I moved across the country to be with mom - all this happened in a span of one month). I Netflix-dvd this flick for Us and We cringed at the right spots and laughed until We cried, really cried when the grandfather died in the film. I paused the film. After a few minutes, Mom looked at Me and said "We'll be alright", and smiled so I re-started the flick. After the movie, the heaviness around Us was far less than when We started - a good film becomes great if it can affect you in ways it didn't mean to. When Mom passed in September, I re-watched it again - I cried-laughed all the way through it. Thanks for being such wonderful reactors and always providing great content, Simone and George!

[@timothybrown5999]

So sorry for your losses. I wish you the best.

[@Lillywhite]

❤❤

[@ballzorusrex3701]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful story.❤

[@RonnieG]

Sorry for your losses but glad you got to enjoy this with your mom ❤

[@mitchelltyler5972]

May your parents both rest in peace, and may you retain, for the remainder of your life, the peace and comfort that this film brought to you and your mother.

[@kampfkeks6619]

I think this movie shows how close comedy and tragic can be. I love that the movie can be so loud and clear in its message but also subtle. What a great character movie and probably my favourite Steve Carell performance.

[@scottburch3178]

That's my favorite kind of comedy, like Sideways.

[@Raptchur]

You need the comedy to get through the tragedy.

[@trorisk]

It's true that today there aren't that many real tragicomic films anymore. Whereas until the 2010s there were many. Basically all Charlie Chaplin films. Truman Show, Trainspotting, Groundhog Day, the cornetto trilogy...

[@rynepaschall5973]

I don’t care what anyone says, this is the perfect film, masterpiece all the way thru. It makes you laugh, cry, reminisce of your own family conflicts, and ends by giving you a bittersweet of an ending, because life is exactly that, bittersweet.

[@deadsetondreams1988]

I wish we could respond to Google comments about the film. Because the number of people who hated the film completely misunderstood it. Some of the comments were literally saying the film was promoting child pageants. When it's literally the exact opposite.

[@YourXavier]

I agree. It's one of those movies where I wouldn't change a thing. It's exactly what it's supposed to be.

[@pmbbmp]

@@YourXavier What about the fact that at least one of them will be charged with multiple felonies related to the theft of grandpa's corpse and likely go to prison?

[@YourXavier]

@@pmbbmp What about it?

[@pmbbmp]

@@YourXavier You said you wouldn't change a thing. The happy ending is BS...because one or more of them is going to prison

[@thegunslinger1363]

This film had one hell of a cast.

[@alolkoydesigns]

Michael Arndt, who wrote the Oscar-winning screenplay for Little Miss Sunshine, intentionally used the character of Stan Grossman as a tribute to the Coen Brothers' Fargo.

[@scottburch3178]

Stan says it's a pretty sweet deal.

[@kusut]

@@scottburch3178 the heck d'you mean?

[@christopherschreiber5805]

We're not a bank, Jerry.

[@vilefly]

.....and then there is Les Grossman from Tropic Thunder, who will F you up.

[@hannahl8]

Love this movie!! Everyone had a blast making it. Greg Kinnear did all the driving for real, no one wore seatbelts & they didn't have clearance on the highway. He said it was the most fun & dangerous movie he's ever made, lol.

[@chrisshirley4137]

When I was 10 years old, my family accidentally left me at a campground in the middle of Montana. Despite five other people in that Winnebago, they were 30 minutes down the road before anyone noticed.

[@grizfan93]

"Let Olive be Olive" - best parenting advice ever.

[@celescole9918]

I love that his movie has everyone losing something huge they care about and still have a happy ending. It is about the "losers" and how life is still beautiful even when you don't win.

[@thegreatqtip4516]

This might be my favorite movie of all time. I can't describe how excited I was when I saw you were doing this, especially while you're watching Breaking Bad.

[@angelagraves865]

I drove a VW bus for years and miss it so, so much. The horn would do that on occasion. So funny.

[@Bikebrh]

I learned to drive on a 1973 VW Bus Westfalia camper. I don't miss it at all! 😀😀😀That thing was the biggest piece of crap. I push started it many times over the years.

[@angelagraves865]

@@Bikebrh 🤣 that's so funny. I drove a '72 bug (Chip) that had to be push started occasionally and someone always stepped up to help, and they were always previous VW owners. It was like a little club. 🤣

[@Cadinho93]

Fun Fact: Creepy guy was actually a long suffering beauty queen Dad, not a random dude watching kids in swimsuits. I'll also add that I love that Olive is basically the glue for the family. Everything is going to hell, but her optimism and gentle spirit pulls everyone up when they need it most. I mean notice how she is the only one that Dwayne doesn't lash out at when he snaps and she's the one who gets him back to the van with a simple hug. Damnit, who's cutting onions. So glad you guys reacted to this movie because it doesn't get the attention it deserves. So well written, such great actors, so funny, so much love.

[@urmintrude]

It's so stupid how he's just supposed to be a suffering dad! My mind was blown when I read that was their intention.

[@hokahey7236]

There's more than one "Creepy Guy" in that scene. The pageant host is the first that comes to mind. Are you referring to the guy who stands up and cheers at the end of Olive & family's dance?

[@KronnangDunn]

Creepy guy looked and acted like a Creepy guy.

[@Trip_Fontaine]

It makes a lot of sense when you think about it - a random extended joke about p3dophilia would be way too dark for this movie. And it's not even realistic. I doubt they just let random creeps into these things, especially if they try to come repeatedly.

[@BlackDerek]

@@Trip_Fontaine Always found it weird that people thought that he was creepy. Guy showed no interest in being there.

[@mojoshivers]

I had the chance to attend a special screening at the Arclight when this came out. It had the directors and Abigail Breslin come out for 10-15 minutes after the movie to tell behind the scenes stories of the production. By all accounts, everyone had a good time making the film.

[@BarelyEinstein]

I adore this movie, Abigails little baby bean body on that stage is an absolute statement. And the fathers growth arc is phenomenal. One of my favorite *suddenly feels* movie.

[@jesuismila9673]

Whenever I'm sad, I watch this movie. It is so hopelessly beautiful, along with this music... And thanks to this melancholy, it is so unbearably beautiful. I love it. Always.!

[@nunya2171]

I think Paul Dano gave one of the all time great performances for a single scene with his reaction to finding out about his colourblindness. The acting from everyone in the movie was great, but his reaction brings me to tears every time, especially as someone who lost one of my life goals in terms of sport to an injury, encapsulates every emotion you go through under those circumstances, even in a much less important circumstance. Just a brilliant moment.

[@wozing]

Steve Carrell is usually known for his comedic works (The Office, Anchorman, The 40-Year-Old Virgin), but he has some seriously amazing dramatic acting chops. Some examples are: (This one), The Big Short, Beautiful Boy, The Morning Show, Foxcatcher. Btw, I struggle with addiction, so Beautiful Boy really hit me hard. I'd love to see your reactions to that.

[@EdgarPina-dn4hc]

Abigail Breslin (Olive) was nominated for an Oscar for this movie.

[@zVizzions]

The Cut to George’s face at 23:06 has me CRYYYI G

[@jculver1674]

His expression perfectly sums up how I feel about these pageants. If I had a daughter I wouldn't let her anywhere near one of them.

[@tekias5536]

@@jculver1674 What's worse...these aren't just extras. They are actual pageant children, doing their actual pageant routines. This wasn't played up at ALL for the movie.

[@kenny240]

Since George asked what we think about child pageants. I think they’d be OK if it was just the kids having fun, and nothing more. But, the way the parents get so much more involved than the kids, and the way that the parents sort of live vicariously through the kids doing them is frankly disgusting to me. It’s another example in a long line of things that probably started off with decent intentions but turned into something horrible.

[@richarddefortuna2252]

Kinda like little league baseball, rec. league basketball, and youth football ...

[@clevelandcbi]

​@@richarddefortuna2252Yep. Had to tell my ex-wife to get off our son's back. Was literally playing every sport AND on every extracurricular team. Kid had a 4.0 GPA and was lucky to start his homework by 9pm.

Any personal experiences? Or is this from media and reality TV.

[@kenny240]

@@Dularr not me personally. People I know though.

[@kenny240]

@@richarddefortuna2252 sort of. Yeah. But, I grew up with several kids who wanted to be in those sports way more than their parents cared about them. My nephew also obsesses about basketball, while my brother and sister in law are supportive but don’t get overly involved. They let him have his fun and it doesn’t get to the point of toxic.

[@cgtang]

I watched this film the first time during media criticism class back in the university and I love it. Especially the soundtracks. I still thank my professor every time when I met her for letting us watch this wonderful film.

[@johnwolfe7596]

The band DeVotchKa did the majority of the music for this film and it is so unique and fits so perfectly.

[@karlmortoniv2951]

It’s not about child pageants, thank God, but “Drop Dead Gorgeous” is all kinds of fun with a similarly stacked cast. 😂

[@williamblakehall5566]

You guys might like About a Boy, which has a similar kind of ending -- and Toni Collette once more. The thing about the pageant is that when this came out in 2006, the murder mystery of JonBenet Ramsey was still very much on people's minds and just added to the whole creep factor.

[@margaritakmp]

yessss About a Boy is *so* charming and also stars a young Nicholas Hoult who holds his own brilliantly among a very strong cast

[@tigerburn81]

The two directors were famous for directing music videos back in the 90's.

[@jculver1674]

Also, they're a husband-and-wife team of filmmakers, which is pretty rare, and probably why they liked the family dynamic of this script.

[@cpmahon]

The first time I watched this film I didn't know that it was ultimately about a child beauty pageant, if I had realised I wouldn't have watched it. However, I'm so pleased that I did as it's so wonderfully joyous, emotional and at times sad. It's just an all round great movie. Cheers guys for the reaction and the thumbnail looks great!

[@pmbbmp]

Don't judge a book by it's cover. Tons of people never saw Fight Club vecause they thought it was a movie about fighting.

[@neb2504]

I feel weird saying it given what it starts as, but the family all dancing at the end is possibly one of my favorite movie endings

[@tightyellowshorts]

Love this movie, great reaction! Also, happy that the "Sparkle Motion" lady from Donnie Darko is still involved in pagents.

[@damiantreat7929]

She is so good at being infuriating. My stress levels go up every time I hear her speak 😂

[@MrCrockaG]

As an aside, the Sufjan Stevens songs from throughout the movie are come from one of the most heartwrenching albums of all time, Illinoise. It's an incredible listen.

[@-gohu-]

Want to feel old???? I was in L.A. during quarantine and a VERY well-built (keeping it clean) lady in a tight shirt and miniskirt asked to use my phone. She took down her mask, and it was Abigail. I must have made a face cuz she was clearly trying hard not to laugh. Im guessing it happens a lot 😂😂😂

[@patrickn8355]

Such an amazing film. As someone who has struggled with depression and suicide attempts, this has always been the movie I go to when I fall back into that awful headspace. The way that everyone has their own problems but come together in the end, even though those problems haven’t really gotten any better and maybe even worse, reminds me that you can always find the beauty and joy in this world, even if it’s falling apart around you.

Glad y'all finally got around to watch this movie because it's so freaking good. I've suggested it to people and they don't specifically watch it because of the title of the movie.

This was my 1st Paul Dano film and I instantly appreciated him! He is in my top 5 favorite actors. Because I LOVE actors who have such a love and appreciation for films in general and the art of creating films as well. Heath Ledger, Anton Yelchin, Paul Dano, Daniel Radcliffe, etc. Actors who love photography but also films/directing or producing similar content. They love more than just acting and they try to push boundaries because they actually respect filmmaking as a craft, it's inspiring.

[@Wuffskers]

first time I watched this film was with my folks and I was maybe 14 or 15 and I so distinctly remember being uncomfortable any time Frank's sexuality was acknowledged because I'm pretty sure he was the first gay character I ever saw in a movie tbh and I was just figuring out that I myself was gay, and I so vividly remember tensing up worried about any comments my parents might make any time they touched on Frank's sexuality, and it's not exactly the most glamorous portrayal of a gay character but it's pretty real. The scene where they get pulled over was a moment in particular that stuck with me because it so closely mirrored my worst fear of being "caught", but I weirdly completely forgot it was Dean Norris lmao. Also when Dwayne finally speaks after finding out he can't fly because he's colorblind is one of the most memorable scenes I've ever seen tbh, I still think about it sometimes, something about the idea of being so thoroughly committed to something and then having it taken away from you through some cruel twist of fate that you have no control over and in a matter of seconds was very memorable and especially Paul Dano's visceral performance in that moment.

That horn thing happened to me once. A guy came out of his house, obviously just woke up, gestured for me to open the hood, pulled some fuse or wire (horn stopped), waved at my thank you and went back in his house. Never spoke.

How have we not done this one, I thought you already did!🤭 I’m super excited. It’s my top three comedies of all time but dark humor.

Whaaaaa!? Where's Little Trivia Sunshine? Trivia Miss Sunshine? Little Miss Trivia! Yeah, that's the one!

[@Gnomojo]

Jesus... Abigail Breslin is 28 now.

[@LuisAngel-mu4zv]

Makes me feel old because I'm also 28 and it makes me think that I was that young in 2005-2006.

[@MathMan271]

one of my fav movies of all time!

[@portaladicto]

I had trouble to get off the bed today and then saw the notification of this and get up immediately. This is my favorite movie. This is going to be a great day.❤❤

Great cast award winning still such a hidden gem of a movie. Having so much humor and emotion is hard to do and this one really was a laugh and cry movie. P.S. missed George's movie trivia

[@ThistleAndSea]

Good one, S&G! Yeah, sometimes there's a thin line between laughing and crying, you know? This is one of those movies that stands apart from most. I enjoyed rewatching it with you! Thanks for sharing it. 🙂

I wanted to be a helicopter pilot. I found out my color blindness would prevent that from happening as I was talking to the Marine recruiter, as I was about to enlist.

I had a similar story. But it was because I had to wear glasses.
