Mostly using tracking shots, right? You can see 1917 done great by Kubrick in the 1950s with his Paths of Glory (often regarded as the greatest war movie of all time). I don't think there is anything extremely impressive about 1917, it's just that most of its viewers are young and don't know cinema -- and it happens to be one of the few relatively normal movies of the last 6 years, so it sticks in people's minds right now. But, I don't judge movies based on 'right now' -- I compare to all movies of history. In this way, 1917 is pretty average.

Exactly, I feel like Quentin is blinded by being upstaged with what he see's as a cheap trick when it's just a creative choice that helps enhance the story.

[@T-roccBABY]

​@@KevinHarvey-YT upstaged? 1917 is entirely forgettable (and highly unoriginal) beyond the meme of trying to look like one continuous shot. That's literally all it had going for it. Q's right, it would be a lot more impressive if it were actually long takes; there are many movies with long takes and they're always more impressive for it. It's a bold move and not necessarily easy to pull off. Not only in the directing side but acting as well; if you can nail a long take and keep it engaging, it is cinematic gold. In contrast however, it does not take a lot of talent to do a whip pan edit and blend a multitude of cuts (though credit given where it's due to editing) and if that's all this movie brings to the table then okay... But a gimmick edit has got nothing on a single Tarantino movie. They're all too memorable and iconic. Whereas I couldn't cite anything besides editing and Roger Deakins' cinematography for 1917. Furthermore I can't say I've cared to revisit it🤷‍♂️ there's too many other greater war films out there with greater content, originality, strong writing, real character and memorable moments. I'm not saying it's a bad movie like say hacksaw ridge lmao but it's definitely not great. I forgot all about it until now. Meanwhile, I could never forget FMJ or Apocalypse Now for example.

"During World War I, over 380,000 African Americans served in the U.S. military, primarily in segregated units, with many assigned to non-combat roles like labor battalions, though some notable combat units like the 370th Infantry Regiment, nicknamed the "Black Devils" by the Germans, did see significant action on the front lines; despite facing discrimination, they fought for their country and earned recognition for their bravery. "

[@TheDreamWyrm]

Judd got one word in edgewise in this conversation and it is perhaps the best point on the whole subject: one cut, a million, none of it is real.

[@kradz5172]

True, but when it comes to modern day film making having a movie that only has a few cuts and having it be a phenomenal film seems like a bigger success than the movies that have so many cuts in a span of a scene.* But in the end entertainment (and yes a whole lot of other things) is what matters when you watch a movie regardless of the way a filmmaker gets there. *I'm admittedly burnt out when it comes to superhero movies and that's all it was (obviously not all there was but a lot of what was pushed when it came to movies) for a while.** **Yes I see how silly that is considering 1917 and Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood are the films being discussed in this clip. I think the guys at Red Letter Media said it best (I'm paraphrasing) that it's always great when a Tarantino movie comes out because he's an actual filmmaker/director that has a vision and voice rather than a director who is there for a little and then it's all the CGI/special effects folks left to do what they do.

What was his point? Bill was marveling at moviemaking magic, no cuts in the film, etc. and Judd said hey, it's not real. It seemed nonsensical

There was so much great about 1917 but too much was made of the long takes stuff. To me the most impressive thing about 1917 was the investment in George Mackay’s performance for so much of it which entirely worked. Schofield’s run is a classic piece of cinema and one of those scenes that will stick in my mind for many years.

[@saintsalieri]

What the film did very well is show how great it is that filmmakers have developed the art of montage over the past 100+ years, and how dull a film can be when that tool isn't used.

I believe that the cuts are not for showing technica feats, but to transmit the urgency of the story, like Los Ángeles in the 60’s on Tarantino’s movie, the great thing is that most of us didn’t though about it because it was made to make the story work, not to show how good they are at making backgrounds for movies.

[@OGRE_HATES_NERDS]

it can be both at the same time

[@Zett76]

"most of us didn’t though about it because it was made to make the story work" If you went into the cinema, knowing that this is the movie that looks like one long take... in fact, I don't know about you, but I wasn't able to not pay attention to the gimmick. Ruined my immersion.

[@PocketDrummer]

Tarantino is thinking of it from a filming perspective, but the audience doesn't really give a shit HOW it was filmed, they only care about how it looks. And if it looks like it's been done in one giant take, then it's still reasonably impressive as a concept, especially with everything that was going on in the movie. Maher's challenge to the examples Tarantino brought up are valid.

I'm sorry that Tarantino didn't elaborate on the only truly deliberate cut (change of shot) in "The Rope". It's a (simple) moment when the language of the film explodes, full of meaning. What bothers me about Sam Mendes' film is that the narrative - and its dramatic implications - seems to be locked inside a huge technical achievement. War movies always have a spectacular side, but when it overlaps human drama... it's not exactly my cup of tea.

[@DoubleMonoLR]

I dislike the video because of the misleading title. There is no where within the video where Tarantino states why he "HATED" the 1917 movie. Actually, quite the opposite is true, he stated he "actually like the movie" (5:40). He simply stated that if you liked the movie because it looks like it was a single take, there are actually many cuts and if you're careful, you can actually spot them. And I agree with him, I liked the movie but if you pay attention, you'll notice the cuts.

[@zsht]

Maher is insufferable. I spent my entire first watch counting the cuts of 1917. I agree with Quentin, a few extreme long takes are way more impressive than millions of 'invisible' cuts - and the long takes should serve the story, not just for the sake of it.

[@Blondie472]

My favorite long-cuts film is Children Of Men.. 1917 takes a close 2nd.

[@FatLadyKiller]

And both of that films had actual cuts that were masked to look like it was one long shot when it wasn’t. Is it still as impressive to you knowing they actually did cut and didn’t keep going?

[@habadasheryjones]

I feel like 1 one shot is a decision that should benefit the storytelling. The decision was better utilized in Children of Men because it was used sparingly as opposed to 1917 which, to me seems like its showing off more than its benefiting the storytelling. It cheapens the effectiveness of the 1 shot by doing it the whole film. I think the scene where he finally meets Cumberbatch's character could have had an effective gut punch of a cut and the movie would be more interesting to me for it because the 1 shot then has more weight and doesn't come off as technical wizardry for technical wizardry's sake. Thats just how I feel.

[@Blondie472]

@Habadashery Jones I felt like I was walking two steps behind those boys the whole time.. It played to me like ultra voyeurism falling somewhere between documentary and video game. Loved that.

It’s hard to ignore the cuts on first viewing of 1917. Naturally I think most people, if they are aware beforehand, will look for them and it may become a novelty or game. I felt it was like that for me, but it slowly went away as I was sucked into the story. The second viewing, for me anyway, was beautiful as you get to be intimate with the story and character as we are invited into every moment in an unbroken sequence. The impact of the story and journey hit much deeper than most movies do because of this subtle, yet powerful connection.
