Usual Suspects: MAKING OF VF

Usual Suspects: MAKING OF VF

[@Rekaert]

Benicio's had a few instances of making changes that worked out the best. The accent he did in this, where everyone thought he was nuts for trying it is an example, but also his insistence for 'less' lines, in both Way of the Gun and Sicario where originally he had far more lines of dialogue. He knew that less was more, and created a more enigmatic character, who when he did speak, the audience paid attention. He's a clever guy, and an excellent actor.

[@billygowhoop]

Gabriel Byrne still seems pissed that his character didn't turn out to be Keyser Soze.

[@franklippert4278]

I always wondered when exactly Verbal came up with 'Kobayashi". Of course he could have looked under the cup all the time off-screen. But no, there is an exact time, when he does that on-screen, right before our eyes: 57:47. You never learn out with this movie, that's great!

[@potato-whiz]

Watch him when he’s talking about the barbershop quartet in Skokie, Illinois. You see him glancing at the board for a second. A detail I always was impressed by was after Kujan asks who Keyser Soze is and Verbal goes “oh fuck!” Not only was it genuine, that was the point he has to pivot a little in his story because he likely was not going to bring up Soze at all until they learned about him. As new details came out to the cops, he’d have to weave them into his story. It’s so brilliant and really demonstrates Soze’s cunning.

[@mikespearwood3914]

Another genius subtle thing that can be seen on re-watches is the way Spacey's Kint character holds his cigarette in some scenes, which is apparently how Turks actually hold their cigarettes (usually). (12:27)

[@djpete2009]

Bingo!

[@danielfronc4304]

Ya' gotta admit all those primary suspects actors brought something unique to the group and made for one tough, cool crew. I would've loved having Baldwin's role. And then the ending? Superb, as in Maltese Falcon superb only on a much higher level. I wish I had seen it in the theater.

[@cryhwks]

Whether or not if Verbal is Keyser or not? Which I think he is. You can't deny that he was the mastermind and a genius. To think up this insane lie on the spot by just taking in his surroundings and making the cop believe him and walking away scott free he is a genius.

[@cfh0611]

I agree, a very underrated detail that on the spot he was able to completely fool a guy like Kujan. Also, what also I stands out to me is how twister Keyser must be cause I think he gets a thrill out of constructing as terrifying of a myth as possible, without getting caught. Like he says "you think a guy like that comes this close to getting caught, and sticks his head out?" Yes. He does.

[@GigaChadh976]

[@neaituppi7306]

I agree with Gabriel that he and many actors are just playing aspects of themselves. But not every actor. Danial Day Lewis is a big glitch in the theory that actors are just playing themselves. I was stunned to find out how he usually is as a person, compared to most of his characters. Just the ones that still largely look like him, that is not the same person. But then roles like in Gangs of New York, or There will be blood? He became someone else for awhile, during the shoot. It was like a type of controlled schizophrenia. I had two friends that had schizophrenia, and I would drop by their place, to find they were someone else.

[@TheFly212]

Everyone saying that Baldwin is arrogant and that him and Pollack hate each other.....Holy fuck. You dummies. They're playing their characters from the film here guys! They're still in character here. And McMannus and Hockney despise each other in the film and Baldwin and Pollack are still doing it here in this obviously choreographed "making of" segment lol. They're still fucking with you! Still fucking with the audience! Just like the film did! Brilliant!

[@natalieps2387]

Such a great movie I think the twist even beats the sixth sense. Maybe bc it was done first before twist endings became a big thing. It had been done b4 by Hitchcock or in esb but the reveal about luke & vader was more a bombshell than twist. This movie was so cool in that it made the entire film a lie or giant lie sprinkled with some truths. The best lies contain some truth to them. Chazz was the first choice for the detective but he had a conflict so al pacino was asked but he passed bc he just played a cop in heat. Micheal biehn was offered McManus but turned it down. He said it's his biggest career regret. I'm always intrigued by actors that were asked to be in a movie bc u wonder if it would change the outcome. I've come to the conclusion that it's meant to be. Like tom selleck was cast as indiana Jones but his tv show would not let him do it. I believe Spielberg always wanted Ford but Lucas refused bc he had already had ford in 3 films & did not want him to be his bobby denero to martin Scorsese. But with selleck out & principal photography about to begin they got ford. I think Ford fits the part so well that selleck in the part it may not have been as good. No insult to tom but im saying ford fit perfectly. I'm convinced if ford never played indy he would have been typecast as han solo. Anyway chaz was so good . He did not play the cliched detective. I liked after he yelled at verbal when he walked out he was smiling so he was showing he was just putting on the bad cop act that he was able to seperate himself from what he wanted to know as a cop.

[@Jeckxdeel]

THE USUAL SUSPECTS is way far better than THE SIXTH SENSE.

[@dukedematteo1995]

This docu is awesome. Great movie, great cast. Stephen Baldwin isn't a great actor but he played a good McManus. Michael Biehn would have been good tho. Benecio was great even if his sole purpose was to die. And comedic, physically unimposing Jewish guy Kevin Pollack pulled off a tough guy criminal pretty well. I love that Gabriel Byrne thought he was Keyser Soze until he saw the premiere then freaked out on Singer. And Pollak and Baldwin have bashed eachother since then a bunch of times.....apparently Baldwin was really into method acting and acting like a bully asshole to other actors when they weren't shooting. Not to mention Singer and Spacey have assaulted dozens of people since then.

As Gabriel Byrne basically said, films in past 20 years have turned into just one big formula. And it seems if "The Formula" isn't adhered to, it's impossible to get the film made by either no financiers will go near it, a studio won’t risk something unknown, etc, etc. This is no different than what has happened in almost all of the arts. Music is just one big formula...it's nauseating. Films are now CGI'd to death, they're no longer about telling a story...it's just about blasting every human sensory system to smithereens. The industry is now sooo condescending. It's as if everyone in the industry (except the writers and directors) believe so much that the audience can't think and we can't comprehend a dialogue...so they have to hold our hands throughout the film and that we require an interpretor (which comes in many forms, but we can see right through all that). And there can't be anything in a film that might confuse us; which could be a scene such as when the 5 felons were in lockup. Producer says: "No! The audience won’t have any stimulation with those men just sitting there having a conversation. How boring!" - Now, I'm not even being sarcastic. In films today, they have to have 2 scenes prior to that one just to make sure we are prepped and babysat to be told why these guys are just sitting there (having a conversation that definitely would be that way in real life). That's why we're stuck with nothing but Super Hero films. No storytelling can happen because the audience will be bored to death unless we're blasted with LOUD noises, fights, visual overload and on and on. Humans LOVE - and need - storytelling. It's who and what we are. We haven't stopped being babies with books or stories being told to us. We'll love stories until we're 6 feet under! We love hearing a story and allowing our minds to be taken over by what's next! There's the other film genre today that exists to steer your belief system as a whole or perhaps on just one point. The script is blatantly didactic from beginning to end. The writers and directors today want to force us to believe in a particular ideology or a new cultural piece that they want driven home (and if you don’t subscribe to it, you're an "...ist" of some sort). Just horrific. Just tell me a great story!! I love those lowlife criminals in Usual Suspects! So does everyone else! You're one helluva writer when you can get viewer to understand (not love) why Keyser Sozë had to kill his family. A "few simple lines" and suddenly you know what evil these 5 hard-core criminals are up against. Anyway, I'm done with my rant. Maybe it's that people can't write anymore and I'm pointing to the wrong guys. Or, maybe it's a vicious cycle; the writers know that the directors & producers won’t accept anything away from the condescending formulaic script.
