I just rewatched Blade Runner 2049 yesterday with my gf. I haven't actually watched any other Gosling movie, to my shame, but one thing stood out to me from that movie very clearly: Gosling depicts more with a single silent and seemingly expressionless shot than some actors can in whole movies. He's a masterclass in subtlety and nuance, the way he's able to create a sort of "empty space" or subtext with careful expressionlessness is just... absolutely incredible. This wouldn't work in something like theatre, Gosling was made for the silver screen.

We all wanted to be ryan gosling. We all started listening to jazz after and watched the Oscar’s together. And we’re collectively upset when the movie got robbed

[@beanutputter_02]

Barbie was pretty generous to men for being a very outwardly feminist film. Ken was, at worst, portrayed as misguided as a result of under appreciation and necessitated emotional suppression from a “young age” (i.e., while in Barbieland) like a lot of young boys and men are in the real world. Goslings heavily dramatized portrayal of Ken was in line with how emotionally repressed men can fall into the alt-right pipeline and patriarchal structures because we are often meant to feel that we have no one to go to but ourselves. We wind up trapped and confused like Ken because we’ve never been allowed to be vulnerable. The movie was just as much for men as it was for women imo.

@@jademusic1211 Then the film was just saying that the only thing men go through is depending on women, when men go through everything the women went through in the movie.

[@kadegetslaid634]

Exactly, I think alot of people misunderstand what it's trying to say, it's not "manhating" or anything, it's just showing the effects of the patriarchy and societal rules that both men and women suffer from

[@jademusic1211]

@@idkwhattoputheretbhbuthere No, that's looking at it all too simplistically to say that the movie is suggesting that men depending on women and needing to be validated by them is all they go through.😕 You have to remember that the film was a satire poking fun at gender roles and expectations by flipping it on its head, while also showing how each gender is equally oppressed by these expectations..not to mention that Ken's role literally represented how he's treated in Barbie's world..as an accessory, and that that was wrong. In the end, Barbie realizes this and tells Ken that he's enough just as he is. He doesn't need her to be special or feel validated. He is "Kenough". 🙂

[@blondie5910]

I think The Gray Man is a bit misunderstood. You can tell by the marketing behind the movie they never truly intended for it to be anything other than action porn. Its only purpose was to just entertain. Especially considering that cinema had been starved for good action movies for a bit. It’s a movie that doesn’t require a watcher to think hardly atall, but just sit back and enjoy the ride. I really think the Russo brothers knew exactly what they wanted to do and gave us just that. To think they wanted it to be something other than what it was would be hard to believe considering how good their track record has been. Try giving it a watch sometime you’re in the mood to just turn off your brain and not analyze, but rather just enjoy at the most basic level. Love your videos, keep up the good work!

The most versatile actor of Hollywood. I have already watched all his movies multiple times and can still watch them again. It's not a joke to be dedicated to an artform right from childhood to the present and future ofcourse. He is not only a superb actor but a wonderful human being. Also last but not the least he is a trained dancer and musician. He is an unconventional actor who doesn't participate in the rat race of stardom and dares to take a break from a fruitful career just to follow a passion be it music or anything else. He never hesitates to laugh on himself and I love when he blushes with embarrassment specially while watching his childhood dancing moves. Like millions of people I too love Ryan Gosling.

My sister is a psychologist, her class did a study on Lars And The Real Girl - she made the whole family watch the film and excitedly (rabidly) grilled us for our comments. There were numerous projects her university class had on the film and she kept referring to the movie throughout that year when commenting about various mental health matters. I ended up watching the movie again but by myself and in a large dark room one day. As much I kept saying "oh no, ew" at the movie, I also tripped and shocking felt like I was Lars myself. Introverted, needs a little sympathy from the group for certain behaviours, struggling with certain big traumatic life events that impacts behaviour or relationships. We can all relate to Lars in some way. Odd in some way (although Lars is on the extreme). Goslling did a great job. That the movie is revered in the psychology and psychiatry fields is pretty amazing. Edit: The Chandler insert at #1 hit.

21:49 i disagree as to the message that Barbie actually carries. The movie put irl women’s roles in men’s in Barbieland, that’s an important context to comprehend. They showed that a world lead by all Barbies (irl men) with complete and utter disregard to the Kens is not ideal, they also showed that a world lead by all Kens (irl women) with complete and utter disregard to the Barbies is also very not functional. They then taught us through their characters’ development that we have to listen and be accommodating to one another in order to live together and create an ideal functional world. But of course, at the end they also showed us that despite all the lessons they taught “the world”, the world would misunderstand the core of the message and will still be tipped heavier to one side, the Barbies’ side, albeit a little bit better on listening to Kens, but the world still has a *very* long way to go in that process.

That means a lot!

[@gronizherz3603]

What a wonderful video - I, TOO, watched all of Ryan Gosling's movies just late last year. I see I'm dealing with a fellow connosieurs of literally me-ism.

[@bettyspag_]

Great video, just found your channel and I appreciate your passion for film! Lars and Real Girl is one favourite films.

[@sder]

i think u missed the point of barbie

[@sder]

Probably

[@littleglitch4324]

​@@sder Yeah, after watching it a couple times, the way I see it, the whole movie is a condemnation of any system in which one gender (ANY gender) is elevated and the other oppressed. The female-dominated "Barbieland" wasn't meant to portray the ideal society, but rather depict an obvious reversal of our patriarchal society to show people that this system is damaging to literally everyone, not just women. There's probably something about the fact that Barbie (who could be seen as the dominating "man" figure in this reversal) isn't allowed to show any signs of imperfection in her appearance or thoughts (the flat feet, "do you guys ever think about death?", etc.) and literally only shows emotion at the end, where she cries for the first time and realizes how beautiful it is to be human. Doesn't this kind of sound like how men are shat on for being vulnerable in our society, and feel like they have to maintain a certain image/status? The part where the president tells a Ken that she might let men into some lower circuit courts (but not the Supreme Court) is a reflection on how any advances women are allowed in political spheres/public spaces have to be fought really hard for, and even then, they're only offered an inch here and there to appease them (I really hope I don't have to drop a bunch of statistics here; they're easy to find). The way you and many others felt watching a female-dominated society (rightfully uncomfortable!!) is meant to shed light on the fact that it IS uncomfortable to have one gender so favored --- yet if if was reversed and the Barbie's were men and the Ken's were all women, it really wouldn't upset most people since that's our standard in film and media (and real life). It's SUPPOSED to be icky to have such an imbalance. It just only feels icky to some when it's women and not men in charge, because we're used to the MCs, dialogue-having characters, presidents, and strong personalities all being men (watch any movie that came out before the 70s...). The "little girls" you mention who dream of a woman-dominated society... isn't that the whole idea of Ken? Like you said, Ken just wants the Barbies how it feels to be inferior, and to gain an equal position in their world. It's not wrong for Ken to feel hurt at being so mistreated, just like it isn't surprising for girls to feel the same way in the real world. Equality is the goal, not a power gap. Also, at the end, Barbie tells Ken he doesn't need her validation to be worth something, which I thought was a generally empowering message no matter who you are!! :D Sorry for the essay comment ;P Just some thoughts!! Ryan killed this role and was a brilliant and complex character, as usual. Love that guy. Thanks for the video; I've found some new things to watch :)

[@littleglitch4324]

(I mentioned old movies from pre-1970 but it's rampant in current ones too, with men dominating the speaking characters and dialogue)

[@LoachAo]

​@sder people are VERY mad about your take on Barbie lmfao. It's quite funny to me seeing how many people are mentioning it, on a video mainly around Ryan gosling, they are outraged you wanted to see more of Ryan Rosling in a WOMAN MOVIE! Like yeah, I think it's pretty clear from the video that you only watched that film because you enjoy him as an actor, otherwise it wouldn't be your thing.

[@FireJach]

You must be a girl because as a guy i disagree Barbieland is a parody of the real manly life. It is more a parody of Matrix. We as guys show imperfections all the time by using sarcastic jokes, we talk about death and other deeper subjects because that's normal. How can be the Barbieland the mirror if the dolls learn about the real world and then the Barbieland becomes a parody of patriarchy. @@littleglitch4324

[@WillCooks]

I've only seen a few of these movies but this made me want to watch Lars, Drive, and First Man so much

[@sder]

I am glad to hear that

[@stephtremblay1106]

You let the Barbie movie down, not the other way around

[@ryanrusch3976]

Glad you covered some of my favorite roles

[@Just_aNobody]

this seems like a video made by a 10+ million subscriber channel, so well put together. Loved it. -Ryan Gosling (me)
