Very happy when I saw “the place beyond the pines” one of the greatest if not the greatest movie about fathers and sons, and how the sins of the fathers affecting both sons. I got a tattoo from this movie I bought a dirt bike cause of this movie and an all time line “IF YOU RIDE LIKE LIGHTNING, YOUR GONNA CRASH LIKE THUNDER” also the music is 10 out of 10

So I have some info on place beyond the pines! I helped for styling part of the shoot! It was shot entirely chronologically. So Ryan Gosling was only on set for under a month and his time on set never overlapped with Dane Dehaan as the characters never really meet on screen outside of infancy. Ryan Gosling actually simulated robbing about 5 banks for this role. The banks were warned and they hired extras, but the instructions were genuinely: "go in, rob the bank and convince everyone to get down and give you the money, do whatever you need to without hurting anyone, and get away" so a lot of the acting from bank tellers was genuine as they didn't rehearse or know when it would be happening on the day. Like the teller who fails to throw the backpack over the plexiglass, that was not in the script, it was just a failed throw, same for Gosling's vocal cracks screaming in the bank, those are just genuine vocal cracks. Same thing goes for when Dehaan robs the pharmacy. The pharmacy and employee was hired and told someone would try to sneak in and steal something and that the pharmacist should act how they would if they caught someone normally. the getaway on the bicycle is authentic too. The entirety of the idea of the movie actually came from Ryan Gosling telling Derek Cianfrance that if he had to commit a crime, he would want to rob a bank, and he had an idea for how to get away with it using the motorcycle and the moving truck. Cianfrance happened to be writing this script at the time so they married the ideas! Another interesting note on Gosling, his total wardrobe for the film consisted of a total of either 12 or 13 items only! Only one of those items was from a fashion brand (the dirty white denim pants are from Ralph Lauren), everything else he wears on screen was thrifted!

"Thief" (1981) was Michael Mann's theatrical debut. He already had written and directed the 1979 made-for-TV movie "The Jericho Mile," a prison drama.

Just discovered your channel, great stuff. Glad to see Master and Commander getting some love - it's one of my all time favourite movies. So historically authentic and those action scenes are just stunning - the actors and extras were all taught to sail the ship (which was real) so in any shot the crew are actually performing their ship-related tasks). Probably the best sound effects/mixing of any film too - if you ever want to show off your surround sound system, this is the movie to listen to.

Saw Place Beyond the Pines at TIFF and it has occupied my mind ever since

I like that Ryan and Eva are dating as they film The Place Beyond the Pines. In a rare interview about her relationship with Ryan, she says that there is "some of that magic" in some of the scenes. The scene of them with the baby and bike feels so genuine for a reason.

Thanks for the love for both "The Northman" and the wonderful "Quiz Show". Elizabeth Wilson ( Fiennes' mother in the film) was an instructor for one of my acting classes in NY more years ago than i want to admit

You guys are speaking my language with the lookout. That movie is severely underrated.

So glad you included Under the Skin in this package. That movie haunted me for days after i caught it in the theater with my sister. The concept that any random beautiful girl you might bump into might actually be an alien on a nefarious mission stunned me. Way, way underrated. Thanks for the list; the ones we hear so little about are often the only ones worth seeing. Peace -

Just finished your video! Dude that was awesome! I was a little sad to see you sell the Furies and Love Affair, but we all love diffrent things. I wish I had your drive to get through my unwatched stack. Thank you for this awesome video.

Only recently discovered your podcast, great work, and so glad you appreciated a place beyond the pines, I co coordinated the stunt work with Brian Smyj, and it may have been my favorite film I worked on. Thanks for giving it more attention!

AWESOME list guys, sooo many of my favs are on this list, just about every time you mentioned a movie I said YES, and the others I'm gonna check out for sure!!!! I'm a runner and do hours every day, so listening to you guys was just great to help the kms go by, thanks so much!! I just wanna say that We Need to Talk About Kevin is decidedly less impressive when you know the book (a typical criticism I know). Yes the movie is extremely well made and the acting is outstanding, but the it's quite "black and white" compared to the book which is much much more nuanced with a mother who never wanted a baby in the first place and resented it from the outset and put all sorts of expectations on the baby to "improve" her marriage, AND a father who prefers to put his head in the sand rather than face and deal with reality!! Am looking forward to checking out more of your podcasts!!

Warrior is painfully underrated… great pick

The place beyond the pines was a hidden gem I stumbled across and it never escaped my mind. Love it so much, and Ryan gosling character really felt real to me and it's my favorite character of his behind the driver in drive

Gosling is in 3 super under rated films. The Pines, drive, and Only God Forgives

I loved Place Beyond the Pines! I actually caught it back after its initial release when it ended up on showtime, HBO. Was always surprised how most people never heard of it. Very powerful father/son story. That I agree has never really been explored much in cinema

The Last Samurai has literally been my number one favorite of all time for the past two decades.

I really, really LOVED The Place Beyond the Pines. I found it on HBOMAX when I was bored one day during the pandemic I think!!?? I remember how impressed I was with Emory Cohen. Then, I realized he was Tony in Brooklyn. From that moment I became a real fan of Cohen. So talented. Also, Eva Mendes was so good in this. She starts out as a very young mom and in the same movie plays a middle aged mother who had been through hell and back after a lot of unfortunate events. Every actor in this was just so good.

I a SO Glad that I found Your channel!!! I Absolutely Love Your Unbiased and Fun Content!!! I'm a new subscriber n have been Binge Watching Your Videos! 😊...Wish You Both All the Best, can't wait to check out some of the films that I have not seen! 🤓

I loved your videos, with every video you introduced me to many movies, i thank u for that.

Where can I find the full list? I would like to watch all the one I haven't seen yet to see what iv been missing out on.

I am really grateful you did this. We want the next season and you have such a following that this helped spread the word.

“Fearless” with Jeff Bridges. Best plane crash ever!! But a great list

Great list. A lot of these I havent even seen so I will make sure to check them out. For me the most underrated movies would be Blood Diamond (Edward Zwick), A bittersweet life (Kim Jee Woon) and Remember the Titans (Boaz Yakin)

Thank you for making this list. I have been looking for movies to watch 🍿

Great show! Thank you both for shedding light on some older films that shouldn't be forgotten! Michael Mann's first film is actually a made for TV film called "The Jericho Mile." Absolutely wonderful picture starring Peter Strause. Check it out... if you can find it! Then my favorite underrated film is "The Ninth Configuration." No other film like it!!!!

Sorcerer is just making me think of the wages of fear.

I was surprised when you discussed Sorcerer you didn't mention that it is a remake of the film Wages of Fear. If you haven't seen that one it is also great, particularly once the driving starts

Re: David Bowie and Knighthoods: David Bowie was offered both a CBE and a Knighthood but turned both down saying in 2003. "I would never have any intention of accepting anything like that," he told the Sun in 2003

Dude thats awesome i love the place beyond the pines, its one of my favorites and i think the hateful 8 is amazing

Kevin Spacey was excellent as Gerty in Moon. Definitely an underrated gem.

Wonderful picks guys. I hope you will all check out Triangle (2009) and Beaneth Hill 60 (2010)

The Blood of Heroes was powerful to me as a 10 year old wow! Rutger Hauer was always in some film you were watching at the time. SOrta like Liam Nielson the past 20 years, He was commanding and knew how to take the spotlight with little no emotion.

The Last Samurai is my favorite Tom Cruise film~ for me it's about a emotionally messed up & suffering soldier, who is shown who he really is by the Samurai. And, so glad to see Moon on the list! Sam Rockwell, one of my favorite character actors, deserves a ton of recognition for that film. And sooo many other good films on this list: Quiz Show, In Brudges, Castaway........and basically the whole dang list!

Romeo is Bleeding is one of Gary Oldman's finest. Super cool twist in the middle too.

True Believer James Woods was really good! El Salvador too, anything with the man was serious and had you glued to the screen!

great episode boys! Copland, Bad lieutenant (1992), Thirteen lives are a few of my picks

Genuinely had no idea Gosling had directed anything. Gotta watch it now!

Great list! So many of the movies I enjoy.

This is a great list. Movies from many eras, mad respect.

Thanks for all the recommendations boys. My Letterboxd watchlist is getting too long lmao

Love, love, love "Quiz Show," which unfortunately got lost among the great 1994 films, one of the best years in cinema. Nominated for Best Picture along with Forrest Gump, Pulp Fiction, Four Weddings and a Funeral, and Shawshank Redemption.

The 1st film I seen in 3D was Metal Storm and OMG I am a sfi-fi nut and I didn't actually classify myself this early in like yet but the feeling I had when this movie was new and incredibly unknown too! No kids at school had it on they're radar and didn't see commercials or any promotion at all. AT Lunch I was practically acting out all the scenes and adopted the nickname "Tommy Stories" from then on lol.... Seriously guys watch this film you won't regret it.

The Kingdom (07') directed by Peter Berg has an all time cast with incredible stunts and action that is never talked about I was hoping it would be on this list

The Age Of Innocence is the most underrated movie for me, its incredible and top 5 Scorcese, and my favorite DDL performance. Dont be fooled thinking jts just a custome drama, It still is Very Scorcese with great flair.

I'm a movie fanatic and I normally watch these lists to hate watch but you guys are outstanding all of these movies good

"Newsies" is the most underrated musical ever. It's so fun and interesting, and Christian Bale CRUSHES it.

A History of Violence is based on a comic by John Wagner and Vince Locke. Also, the Watchmen show is really great. It's a new story, told in the same world, built upon the fallout of the events of the comic. It's not based directly on the movie, and doesn't have that same 3rd act controversial change.

Here's my list: 1. Shoot Em Up 2. Monster's Ball 3. Green Room 4. Malena 5. Godzilla (2014) 6. Edge of Tomorrow 7. Spider Man 3 8. King Kong (2005) 9. Dredd 10. Grindhouse 11. Sin City: A Dame to Kill Fkr 12. The Polar Express 13. Ray 14. American Gangster 15. The Abyss 16. True Lies 17. Reel Steel 18. Mortal Engines 19. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull 20. The Marvels 21. Godzilla: King of the Monsters 22. Men in Black 2 23. The Phantom of the Opera 24. Last Night in Soho 25. The Northmen 26. Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore 27. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides 28. Minority Report 29. The Adventures of Tintin 30. Blade Runner 2049 31. Master and Commander 32. Watchmen

I love Thief, watch it as a prequel to Drive and blow your mind.

Great list of underrated movies

"A History of Violence" is based upon a comic book.

Red Heat: Jim Belushi is a wildman! Arnold is classic in this very not so celebrated gem!

Billiards is a sport. Go try playing it for 12 to 16 hours like what happens at tournaments and you'll find out pretty quick that it takes endurance along with the skill to do it. I love the tip of the cap to Master and Commander. Such a fantastic film that I've seen at least 30 times. It's a go to when I'm bored and want something on in the background. The soundtrack is fantastic also. It didn't do well at the box office because it was doing battle with The Matrix Reloaded and Revolutions along with Return of the King. A tragic case of bad timing.

Usually these sorts of lists are just 'movies basically everyone has seen', i'm happy to say that about half of these I have not seen yet, and in some cases never heard of. Even better is that of the other half that I have watched, I love them all, so odds are that means the rest are going to be good.

The Color of Money is so good, my favorite Scorsese I think its much better than something like after hours or taxi driver.

"Match Point" (a Woody Allen film) IS spectacular!! Very close in concept to the book "American Tragedy" and the movie that was made from the book

Ah the Man from Uncle is such a good one! Deserved a sequel.

Man, I'm finding I really sync up with you guys in terms of films that I watch all the time and are underrated/under-reviewed. Also, agree on Ready Player One, very watchable, you're rooting for the characters who are not one dimensional --- and it's a decent cautionary tale for today's video game centric audience. It's important to live in the real world...

I seen Thief as a kid and wow' its as high powered as it gets! When Belushi died I was torn! I liked him in every film I watched at that time as a kid. We went to the show often and I seen a lot of mature stuff for being just a kid because my dad wasn't trusted out of the house alone lol' SO even when grounded I got to go to the Movies! The best feeling I ever had at the movies was opening day for Leathal Weapon 1 oh man....... It was epic!

Great episode and fantastic list! I’ve added a few to my watch list ! Check out ‘Rogue’ sometime - it’s a decent killer croc movie 👍🏼

Jake Speed was one of my favorite Low Budget "B" Film... Strangely I could tell the difference in terms of production at 9' years old. This movie however was amazing and John Hurt was an excellent arch criminal and long before V or Lord of the rings. put this one on your watch list and power off your phones guys. Thank me later!

13 Days is a Great Movie that works as a kind of sequel to Oppenheimer

I think Denise’s Enemy is horrendously underrated

Master and Commander is one of the best films ever made. So underrated

So many watchlist additions today

Love your video.

nightcrawler is like Jakes best movie. very great list of flicks. i still need to watch a place beyond the pines.

The Assassin of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford is probably the most underrated film ever. No one talks about it. Robert Deakins did the cinematography and it's mostly accurate to the real life story. Every actor killed it too. It's a beautiful and tragic film

Sad I missed this podcast, In Bruges is my favorite movie of all time

These are must owns in every movie collection.

Bowie: He refused a CBE in 2000 and later a knighthood in 2003. The 68-year-old reportedly explained: “I would never have any intention of accepting anything like that. I seriously don't know what it's for. It's not what I spent my life working for."27 Jan 2023

5 Movies I wish people would talk about more 1) The Talented Mr. Ripley 2) A Time To Kill 3) Raising Arizona 4) Fade To Black 5) Shallow Grave

*_"In my opinion, fennel is an underrated vegetable."_*

I’m half in and predominantly they’re just talking about underrated popular films. The Salton Sea Thursday Thoroughbreds Neon Demon A Ghost Story Dolemite Is My Name Black Dynamite I Don’ Belong In This World Anymore and so many more.

Why is _We Need To Talk About Kevin_ named _The Stars_ in the timestamp?

Underrated Films : The Hitcher (1986) Dead Man (1995) Midnight Run (1988) L.A. Confidential (1997) True Romance (1993) The Machinist (2004)

Moon is absolutely incredible. No one I know has seen it, all I do is recommend it

I'd like to recommend a film in the category of "most underrated film in a franchise". And that franchise is Godzilla. Did you know there's a Godzilla movie with kung-fu fighting, katana-wielding, cloaking, teleporting, motorcycle-riding superheroes? Look up a trailer for GODZILLA: FINAL WARS. You'll see very quickly that the creators of this movie wanted to make a living Anime with Godzilla in it. When Godzilla isn't on screen it feels like watching Final Fantasy: Advent Children.

Damn I thought “Midnight Run” was the movie version of Frampton Comes Alive (if you get it you get it)

Fright night 2011

A few off the top of my head. (In the "reactor" community, these are rare to non-existent) In The Name of the Father (1993; Daniel Day Lewis, Emma Thompson) Salt (2010; Angelina Jolie, Liev Shreiber, Chiwetel Ejiofor) The Commitments (1991; Dir. Alan Parker) Cop Land (1996; Stallone, Keitel, DeNiro, Liotta) Sleepers (1996; Brad Pitt, Jason Patrick, Minnie Driver, DeNiro, Dustin Hoffman) Wag The Dog (1997; DeNiro, Dustin Hoffman Conspiracy Theory (1997; Mel Gibson, Julia Roberts, Patrick Stewart) Thunderheart (1992; Val Kilmer, Graham Greene)

Can you make this into a Letterboxd list?

Silence is (probably) Scorcese's movie.

A History of violence is a graphic novel

Love Place beyond the Pines. Maybe a little overly ambitious with the sons but that's why I like it. Didn't hold back and I cared about the characters

Lone Ranger, Any Given Sunday, Australia

Spielberg’s War of the Worlds

1:12:57 "Broken hearted hoover fixer sucker guy"

I love the Rounders and Color of Money Love. Such bangers and should reach younger audiences

I would add Avalon and Easy Money

What about a list of the movies

Every time I'm on an empty, rocky beach (ie most days with my dog) that Under the Skin scene pops into my head. Horrible.

Get Rumble Fish on there lads. The Outsiders and Rumble Fish are a great double header. I agree with pretty much all of this list. Apocolypto is the best chase move ever committed to screen. Warrior? WOW! Battling brothers never get’s old. Color of Money made me and the lads all want to be pool hustlers (Some of us did). I’m getting old now and I’m forgetting the list as I write this. 😆 I’d stick Near Dark on there too. Also I think Tron Legacy was the last mainstream Hollywood movie involving a positive Father and Son story. Okay one more…. I pick Rob Roy over Braveheart any day. 😁

The films of Swedish director Lukas Moodysson are really underrated and not really talked about at all. These three are his best films: F*cking Åmål (Show Me Love) Tillsammans (Together) Lilja 4-Ever

Place Beyond the Pines is good, but Blue Valentine to me is a masterpiece and gets no love. Also, Millers Crossing is the Coen brothers best movie and no one ever has seen it.

Not sure i would say edge of tomorrow is underrated. Everyone i know says its great

Pool is 1000% a sport. Great video btw

Rango is deserving! Hans Zimmer and Roger Deakins. You should revisit it
