SKYFALL | Bond vs Patrice in Shanghai

Bond interrupts Patrice’s assassination of a target in Shanghai in SKYFALL (2012). Stunt coordinator Gary Powell said: “The set was made of panes of glass that were sometimes invisible and at other times threw reflections, so the most difficult part of the stunt was actually getting through the set without banging into the glass.”

[@PaulV3D]

This film was beautifully shot. The colours, the lighting are all magnificent and they way differ from each scene creating the atmosphere. Edit: I like the show of frustration by Bond at the end of the fight when the assassin falls. Nice subtle character development, as though Bond's considering M's criticism about killing every lead.

[@furioussherman7265]

That, my friend, is the magic of Roger Deakins at work.

I honestly don't think there's a person in Hollywood better at making a scene look beautiful than him.

[@VincentK.McMahon]

Except that his hands had to be cgi’d in for this scene because of an oversight in production and when patrice set up his rifle it was bolt action but becomes automatic all of a sudden when he fights bond so yeah... this on top of numerous other errors in the film... in terms of editing this film was actually done poorly.

[@anishganguly3444]

Kuta baccha 😡

[@criticalbil1]

I agree, except I don't think Bond cares that much about what M thinks. He takes pride in his work and is frustrated at having come so close to achieving a difficult mission.

[@redlightmax]

For everyone who hated the editing in Quantum of Solace, 4:24 this is the antidote. A fight shown in one take.

[@JULIOSTEVEN]

Totally Agree ,Quantum had a terrible edition work, the action looks real, but you cannot see what happened and it was so frustrating.

[@daeryxaqueryx]

It's incredible when you start thinking minutely about how the shot is conducted. You see a fully framed fight between Bond and Patrice in the dark with only light coming from the giant billboard animations in the background, and a couple times when the sniper rifle goes off to show their faces. The camera slowly moves in during the fight to enclose it in a slowly tightening frame until James gets the upper hand and flips Patrice outside the window, at which point the camera ascends up, rotates over Bond's shoulder, and gives us a full body shot of Bond holding on to Patrice's arm while Patrice is hanging 67 floors from the ground. All in one uninterrupted shot. Really tight Steadicam work and gorgeous cinematography.

The part where Patrice looks up but doesn't see Bond because of the light reflecting on the glass is an homage to Mendes previous film Road to Perdition when Danial Craig checks his face in the glass door after killing the family and doesn't see the kid at the bottom of the stairs.

The scene preceding this, showing Bond arriving at the building in "Shangahi," was shot at the back of Liverpool Street railway station in London. I was walking across the station platform one night and noticed a glow of yellow light visible up on the plaza. Went to investigate, and found a row of yellow-filtered lights on the ground, set to create the yellow reflection on the underside of the building that's visible behind Craig as he pulls up in the car. I practically wandered through the back of shot.

What would his plan have been if Patrice was standing facing the other way in the elevator lmao

[@brandondoe4673]

😂😂

[@CosmicTeapot]

His plan would have been to do the most realistic/logical thing to do in this situation: that is, nothing. No, really. He could've simply grabbed a chair and waited for him to get back down to the lobby. Remember, Bond wasn't there to stop him from carrying out the assassination (which he didn't even attempt to do in the movie anyway), he was simply there to question Patrice about the list/his employer, then terminate him (to avenge Ronson). Come to think of it, waiting for him in the lobby might've even made his life incredibly easier, because then Patrice wouldn't have fallen to his death without telling him about Silva, thus potentially sparing him from going through the whole Macau casino adventure. But let's say for some god-forsaken reason, he HAD to follow him up there: 99% of the elevators I've encountered in life have a display indicating which floor the elevator is on. That's right James, you didn't have to go full monke and struggle while dead hanging from a pull up bar (which is for some reason conveniently built under this elevator), cleverly mirroring the previous training scene where you struggled during chin ups at MI6. All you had to do is read the damn display, then grab another elevator up. And even IF this particular elevator in this uber-modern corporate skyscraper, for some reason didn't have such a display: You'll notice that when Patrice steps out of the elevator, the elevator stays at his floor, so I guess Bond could have just used his eyes and counted the floors up to the elevator to know which one to select, then grab another elevator to get there... all possible thanks to that building's "open elevator shaft" design. Moral of the story? You'll find that Bond, the villains, and the entirety of MI6 are all actually retarded when you analyze their decisions from a realistic point of view. Every single thing in these movies is decided with only one thing in mind: entertainment value and pleasing aesthetics. And as a member of the audience, I'm sure you'll agree that we're all glad Patrice wasn't facing the other way... because damn me if the Shanghai and Macau sequences aren't some of the best scenes in this movie :)

He was also probably preoccupied with his upcoming mission.

Cinematography is immaculate

Patrice always was a man of few words.

[@axodok]

That painting was quite mind blowing

[@largervoid1708]

Do you know who´s the artist? Modigliani....

[@nakadai4444]

Yes this scenes are so wonderful, so classic, mesmering.

Skyfall and Casino Royal are the best Bond movies of Daniel Craig

[@evicencio31863]

007 & SKUKLLCANDY💀 Crusher Series 🎧 Headphone are just perfect 👌 between the scoring and sound 🔊. It's a 'blowout'!!

[@fedemanni4794]

The best Bond movie ever!!

[@AnishGandhiburger]

This scene is just like tom cruise hanging on the elevator and Henry Cavill in the elevator

[@pastisricard51]

The scene is so dark, I remember that in the cinema room, it was impossible to see anything.

[@ilariodepacis608]

Amazing film!!

[@furerorban9324]

That, my friend, is the magic of Roger Deakins at work. He also did the cinematography for 1984, Shawshank Redemption, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, A Beautiful Mind, Oh Brother Where Art Thou, No Country For Old Men, The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford, True Grit, Rango, Blade Runner 2049, and 1917. I honestly don't think there's a person in Hollywood better at making a scene look beautiful than him.

[@stillcovalent]
