Quentin Tarantino introduces the Bruce Dern tribute reel at AFI FEST presented by Audi

[@saveangel]

I hope Bruce Dern gets an Oscar nomination for Nebraska.

[@QuanTran-bl6pf]

he did

[@msdee7444]

Right on Quentin! Finally, a nice tribute for Bruce Dern'zie! ;)

[@qhsperson]

The only fan letter I ever wrote was to Bruce Dern, and he not only answered, he sent me an autographed picture and a lock of his hair. (It was a direct response to what I wrote in my letter, not some weird fetish thing.) A very nice man who's always good, no matter what he's doing. And I'd like to point out that he worked several times with Hitchcock. I think that outweighs a few biker movies.

[@2Majesties]

Bruce Dern did some memorable work.

[@ccaammiinniiito2]

And so did Dennis Hopper!

"There go the god damn brownies"

[@tarnsand440]

They've got a goddamn horse in the basement. Christs smells like they're cooking a god damn cat over there!!

[@negotiator96]

Haha hahaha that part cracked me up for real!!!!!! It just looked like it was a real accident the way he just let it take him down just annoyingly but accepting of the lousy hand gravity and wood-rot just dealt to him right then!!!😂😆🤣🤣😁✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

[@JesusBehindtheWheel]

The first movie I ever saw him in was the Driver 1978. Since them I always spot him when I watch old westerns & vintage movies. I love his acting & style.

[@jc6594]

Happy 80th Birthday Bruce Dern

[@lmaka1]

Outstanding. Bruce Dern has long been one of my favorite character actors, but I am unfamiliar with much of his earlier work (e.g. Roger Corman) shown in this tribute. I would love to see more.

[@lonnieclemens8028]

Bruce Dern is the most profound supporting actor that I know. I remember seeing him in movies when I was a kid. He was the most impressionable in westerns as an outlaw. He had that look in his eye.

[@barbaradurant3123]

When I was just a kid, I saw Mr. Dern in a cowboy movie.... I knew he stood apart, I was so attracted to him - instantly. Every scene he's ever acted, absolutely incredible. Thank you for being different Bruce Dern. I noticed with awe.

[@Joseph-lc4lv]

wtf??

[@barbaradurant3123]

brilliant words out of brilliant minds

[@Joseph-lc4lv]

Jim carrey do it better

[@samfilmkid]

"He doesn't need six weeks of rehersal like the Brits, he shows up on Monday on the Big Valley, he kicks Lee Major's FUCKING ASS AND HE GOES HOME!!!"

[@jamesanthony5681]

I remember Bruce playing a bounty hunter in *The Big Valley* : "Barkley, I want that dog."

[@soylire30]

one of the GOATS

[@arnab_as_anshu]

A legend introducing another legend..... The level of the show is 🔥🔥🔥

[@personifiedcode4233]

I just saw Bruce Dern's scene while rewatching Django, and man, was I impressed. I was taken back by how much hatred he had, and then I realized I knew his name... took a few seconds to reach the deeper recesses to remember what it was. I had to look at his other work. QT is right, he's an acting treasure

[@Prusyakish]

Young Bruce Dern reminds me of Walton Goggins a little bit.

[@krisscanlon4051]

Yes i believe that's the draw there...WG big throw back

[@drxcreatures]

The reel starts at 3:02.

[@tony1876]

Bruce Dern is a Legend

[@TG-ld8hl]

I feel like you can draw a straight line from Bruce Dern, through Michael Biehn, right into Walton Goggins.

[@TonyDanza4Lyfe]

How are those 3 comparable lol

[@scottlemond6570]

Great American actor! In America or anywhere else! Thank you Mr. Dern

[@scottmandu8316]

Great character actor

[@aimfuldrifter]

That was something!

[@jrbaskind]

I would have liked to have seen the scene in "Support your Local Sheriff" where he faints from shock, realizing that he could have been killed by a cannon.

[@yoho300]

That guys amazing

[@scottjo63]

3:27 has to be the "Dernsie" of all "Dernsies" that almost cost him his career but WHAT A "DERNSIE" IT WAS. Even John Wayne said it himself by saying "A lot of people gonna hate you" or something close to that quote. I've seen some top villain's lists and Bruce Dern's character of Long Hair in The Cowboys IS NOT mentioned in a top 10. WELL IT SHOULD BE

[@bfor42]

No Black Sunday? Or how 'bout The Laughing Policeman? Two of my favorite Bruce Dern roles. But I think his best performance was in Smile as Big Bob Freelander.

[@scottjo63]

4:31 Black Sunday but they did forget The Laughing Policeman which is full of Dernsies.

[@bfor42]

Oh, see it. If it was a snake, it would've bit me.

[@qhsperson]

You're the perfect Young American Miss.

[@AlwaysHalloween000]

The Laughing Policeman is my personal favorite Dern movie and i liked him in The Burbs

[@tarnsand]

I need a Dernsy !!!!

[@MartinSage]

You forgot a shot from the '64 Hitchcock's TV play "Lonely Place" he's fucking scary as hell!

[@ccaammiinniiito2]

Bruce Dern, the Adlai Stevenson of moviedom. And he's got quite a pedigree, something right out of the Gilded Age. Check it out on Wiki. In that sense, he comes from an America that's veddy Anglo Saxon. But then again, so did Lady Jayne Seymour Fonda, Gore Vidal (I never understood just how Vidal is related to President Jimmy Carter), Tallulah Bankhead (Senator Bankhead of Alabama) and Anne Baxter (Frank Lloyd Wright). By his heritage, Dern really should've ended up on the board of Franklin Templeton, an executive with S&P, or upper reaches of J. Walter Thompson. You get the picture, don't you?

[@thetruth3768]

How many movies/tv shows was he in??? He was great.

[@prathameshpatole8177]

What is that score at the starting of the reel..???

[@qu7aker1]

Whats the movie at 3:28?

[@jmporro]

The Cowboys

[@GastonBoykins]

Does anyone know the music at 4:09?

[@joycetyner7643]

YAY

[@harishchatrathi5195]

What is the song at the end at 3:03?

[@DWAtwood]

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel

[@murcster1]

I thought what a great tribute******

[@josephelias9081]

Tarantino is highly strung

[@scottywayne3601]

sob killed john wayne

[@brocklanders6172]

Looks like Tubby's a little off his meds...

[@babyirene3188]

He's too good at playing a skunk.
