I met Helfgott shortly a couple of times after concerts in Denmark and when I told him my name is Leif he hugged me long and dearly and kept repeating "Leif Den Lykkelige" which was the nordic explorer that came to America 500 years before Columbus. Helfgott lived in Denmark for some time in my home town though I regrettable never met him at that time. When he played his birthday concert in Copenhagen after the regular set he kept running off stage asking his wife if he could play another piece. She rushed him in again and he ran back on stage and asked the audience if he could play another piece. The love from the audiience was never ending. He ended up playing double time, a night never to forget. I still cry when I reminisce.

Need to buy this film, I love the story for all its tragic humor, but it's rare that a movie about a pianist has somebody who can fake the hand motions well enough to fit what they're supposed to be playing. Rush is superb.

+lygophile If you look closely, you can actually see that he is kinda faking it or maybe failing a bit sometimes. It's originally played by the real David Helfgott and added on to the footage. But i read in the trivia of the film at IMDB that Geoffrey Rush actually had to learn this piece to play this role in the movie, so he is kinda playing it the right way still

It's one thing to play Flight of the Bumblebee, It's quite another to play it while smoking.
And without letting the cigarette's leftovers fall off.

Geoffrey Rush is one of the most underrated actors in movie history. Fortunately, he won an Oscar for this performance...and he has other stellar performances like this one.
Everyone today is "underrated." The new complement du jur rather than simply saying he's a good actor. I understand the Grand Canyon is underrated as a hole in the ground...
@@buckhorncortez He said 'underrated' and 'won an Oscar' in the space of ten words, I don't think he's that smart.
@@jasonfitzpatrick2197he got 18 other geniuses to agree to that oxymoron 😂
The Peter Sellers biopic he did was amazing. It was a made for TV movie. If they had the foresight to put it in half a dozen cinemas he would have walked the Oscar.
Nicely constructed scene. The first thing I thought was he would never have gotten away with smoking in a restaurant. Then the manager/owner lights up. Sign of the times. How quickly we forget.

Yes me too. I had this on VHS when I was 12 or 13 and would rewind this scene and play it over and over and over. Now I have KZhead! :)
Mine too. Expertly acted, and expertly synched to the scene. I liked the movie too.
The second is mozart once🤣
*At one point even looks away from the piano, and continues to play and smoke his cigarette* Skill.
He actually does it twice 😉
3 times 2 over both shoulders lol
When he looks over his shoulder his’s just like “take that ass hole”
Its a movie, all synched with the sound track recorded by David,, Filming each segment so the actor is in synch which is difficult on another level.
The greatest unintentional revenge scene in the history of film!!! 'hey baby.....how about a tune?' Ya certainly got one ya bastard haha
Moral of this scene is simply: Don't judge a book by its cover.
Yes.
absolutely
except this is Hollywood not reality. most of the time you can get a good judgement from someone's apperance
Nope the moral of this movie is smoke weed and you can play flight of the Bumblebee like a badass

Honestly I wasn't shocked to learn that Geoffrey Rush re-learned how to play the piano so he could do this scene without faking it.
David Helfgott just played in Izmir tonight and he was such a pleasure to be around. Geoffrey Rush couldn't have acted better, David is exactly the sweetie pie you see at the movie. He runs around kissing everyone during the applouse, sings along while he plays (sings a totally different tune though), he's such a lovely man.
nice
+Deniz Erdogan i am so happy to meet another david helfgott fan god bless you deniz.
Always loved Rush's performance in this film, he was really great BUT I was always even more impressed by Noah Taylor playing Helfgott in his teens, he's such an underappreciated actor. Excellent in Game of Thrones!
My thoughts exactly. Saw him yesterday at the Sydney Opera House and I didnt know if I was watching Helfgott play Rush or the other was around!
Deniz Erdogan. H
Best song to shout badass mouths EVER.

Thành Nam Phạm Omg thank you I was about to say it

Could not agree with you more
I had the great pleasure of hearing Helfgott play live at a small country town recital in Merredin decades ago. Humble and talented. I also hate Flight of the Bumblebee. Took me three years to master it, my right hand ached after finally getting it right, played it once for a concert, then never played it again. Ever.
***** That's putting it mildly. If you're extremely talented, you could probably nail it in a fortnight. I'm not that talented.
Never even considered trying to play it. Playing 'The Entertainer' is on my bucket list though, and I think that's more realistic for now.
BlokeOzzie why you never played it again? :D
Baka Shiina Because it's technically a pain in the arse to perform well, my fingers aren't fast enough, and I don't even really like it that much. My parents did though, so I learned it for them. Much prefer the third movement of the Moonlight Sonata myself. Also difficult, but I just like it better over all.
xxg
I believe G. Rush should get an Oscar for every role he performs. Pure genius.
Even for “Pirates?”
@@CaptainReedo40 That one no, I agree
@@CaptainReedo40I still feel we were lucky to have him in “Pirates”, but that the series was Rush’s reward to enjoy. “ARRR!!!” as he charged Depp … I mean, seriously, that looked like so much fun!
You probably haven't seen Mystery Men. A cute movie and not a waste of time to watch out of boredom but no Oscar winning performances for that cast.
I agree!
I don't care about who you are or what you do, if you can play Flight Of The Bumblebee on any instrument then I have nothing but respect for you
Emi Grant But … it‘s technically just chromatics!
Numerus Rachmaninoff and Cziffra's arrangements are both far more than chromatics
i can only play it on my tablet :(
What about on the kazoo?
@@Emiliapocalypse Then you're god to me.
i’ve watched this scene about 100 times i swear
I never get tired of watching this scene.....I bet I have watched it 1000+ times or more.
Me too?
1/2 century ago I use to be able to play it this good on a violin and loved every second of it. Out of everything our orchestra played, this was always my favorite music. Now I'm so old I'd never be able to do it again, but I think at least I would be able to hold the violin correctly.
Did you get a recording?
I was never in an orchestra but used to be able to play dizzy fingers on the accordion. Too old to hold it now so know where you are coming from.
I consider this to be one of the best scenes in film not to mention one of the greatest films of all time, no matter how many times I watch it. Pure Karma shown in all it's glory. Rush was outstanding here and deserved the Oscar for leading actor that year. He absolutely nailed Helfgott's mannerisms.
Robert Bateman Whats the films name?
Shine
Don't forget Noah Taylor's performance.
The piano player made the place alive again. Nice movies is hard to be forgotten.
I love this movie and this scene had me in tears. Both Noah Taylor (very underrated and unspoken of) and Geoffrey Rush did an amazing job in this movie.
such a great movie and i love the fact its Geoffrey Rush who is really playing classical education sure has its perks....:)
Its definitely not rush.. he had a double sitting behind him
@@markt3720 Geoffrey Rush had once learned the piano up until aged fourteen. He took up piano lessons again thirty years later for this movie and also acted as his own hand double and body double. its a known trivia piece
@@TheBarbahaba look up Simon tedeschi. Rush may play some piano but these scenes are 100% not him playing
@@markt3720 dude you just bursted the illusion i had :( you mean to tell me the whole flight of the bumblebee scene in the pub was simon and not rush ?
@@TheBarbahaba Actually, it was no illusion :) Geoffrey played the piano by himself and Simon played the piano scenes of when David was a teen\young adult
Shine was a crushing victory for all those musicians who lived similar tortured lives.... but remained obscure. Rush was clearly the winner that year for BA.
Geoffrey Rush resumed piano lessons for the movie because he was suspended from piano school when he was 14... in order not to require a hand double... this men is awesome :D
So many music teachers today shy away from teaching kids scales. "Flight of the Bumblebee" is full of chromatic scales. Kids can't grasp basic music concepts and structure without a basic knowledge of how music works. Teaching a kid music without the basics is like teaching someone to write a novel before they can spell properly.
He took piano lessons for like 2 weeks or something.
@@savedbyjesusblood I don't know dick about theory, and I've wrote and recorded fuck loads of songs. Theory and scales aren't everything. But it definitely can help

One of the biggest "shut the fuck up's "in history...
This was the movie that introduced, with a bang, the marvelous Geoffrey Rush to worldwide audiences...
There are not 5 actors today with the range of Rush, truly one of our finest actors I loved him in Elizabeth, he was fiendishly good there. Here he made me very sad, how could a father snuff out the genius of his child. Or attempt to. Great performances all around in this very good movie.
Not just the father,,, the real story was the Electric Shock Therapy and medications on top of 130 cigarettes per day, 30 cups of coffee per day, alcohol and cigars fed to David by the Doctor who owned the Wine Bar.
Amen on the Elizabeth reference.
130??? That would be 6-1/2 packs 🤢
I had not heard of this movie before I watched this clip. After which I promptly watched entire movie. What an absolutely brilliant film. Geoffrey Rush did an outstanding job.
One of the greatest scenes of cinema history. A bum - sneering and ''throw him out' - and suddenly 'Flight of the Bumblebee' played with cigarette. I especially love Sylvia played by Sonia Todd who encourages him and whose surprise is palpable.
haha i love how the bar asshole is played by that actor.
The rule is simple: If you hate the asshole the actor is great.
brilliant film ! A performance about a talented musician who has paid a price for his art in modern society! David Helgott is a genius to the world.
For his art? Classically able musicians can usually find somewhere to play.
This is my favorite movie of all, Rush played Helfgott to the tee
One of the best FU scenes of all time!
Geoffrey, one of greatest artists/actors on planet earth 🌎 ...shine on brother 👬💪

The guy who realises he has been a prat is excellent in this scene too. Really helps to make the scene. Such a wonderful scene. I always want to join the party at the end. I can play Flight of the Bumble Bee on piano but only at 80% speed! I bet the ‘prat’ guy’s lovely in real life!
That is not "only" that is amazing !

It's a great scene. Everyone else is captivated and delighted by this unexpected surprise. But Sam can't share in their enthusiasm. He looks around in dismay. How can this dishevelled mess of a man be drawing such rapt attention and respect?! It's so well done.
This is one of my MOST FAVORITE video clips on KZhead. Sign That Man Up! Did you see how everyone... EVERYONE (including the heckler) in that bistro seemed to be mesmerized by this man's honest talent.
The Heller was the manager...😊
One of my favorite movies of all time.
Geoffrey Rush is an absolutely brilliant actor, one of the best on the planet. That said I thought Noah Taylor's performance was grossly underrated and a more difficult role than Rush. He was the portrait of the artist and had to create an arc, especially when it came to his relationship with his father. It was a more nuanced performance but truly first class and he deserves far more recognition.
If you knew David Helfgott you would understand how good Geoffrey Rush was in this film.
Agree fantastic actor, especially in this and in the matrix as Smith.
Geoffrey Rush is such a Versatile Actor. From Helfgott to the Boss of Mossad in Munich to a Pirate in Pirates of the Caribbean. One of the best actors to come from Australia.😊🇦🇺
@@rizla2000 .. Rush didn't play Smith. That was Hugo Weaving.

Most uplifting film scene ever. Many thanks for posting.
I remember watching this with my mum as a teen. We loved it and bonded so well that day. That was more than 30 years ago & I remember it like yesterday.
I am what they call a tough sort of man. But the minute he started playing I could not stop crying.
It's about time some producer somewhere in the world had the guts to give Geoffrey Rush a job, one of the world's very greatest acting talents wasting...
Anytime. Every single time I watch this scene I cry like a baby, there’s nothing I can do about it, they just shed on
Happened to be thinking of this movie just the other day, and here this scene pops up on my page!
I met David Helfgott, he did a concert in Denmark some years back. Such a sweet man, and incredibly talented.
I remembering crying my eyes out while watching this film for the first time on a plane to Mexico City, back in August 1997. Certain scenes are simply heartrending.
I'm amazed. I remember when I was teenager ,I had seen this movie .Now I play piano and wanted to make sure, that actor was really playing this bumble one or not. I thought this was played by pro pianist. But now I knew he was playing for himself and how difficult this was !
David Helfgott recorded this, Geoffrey Rush synched the hand movements but was not playing. Movies are made piece by piece then edited together in the studio.
@@josephhapp9 at 1:19 there’s no edit and it REALLY looks like he’s actually playing. I know he studied for the film so they wouldn’t need a hand double for sure. But if that was fake piano playing on Rush’s part that’s the best faking I’ve ever seen.
Australian concert pianist Simon Tedeschi actually played this and the other complex pieces in Rush.
Yes. Geoffrey Rush is a brilliants and lovable actor ... but he is portraying an even more brilliant and lovable person, David Helfgott. Please don't forget. I met Helfgott shortly a couple of times after concerts in Denmark and when I told him my name is Leif he hugged me long and dearly and kept repeating "Leif Den Lykkelige" which was the nordic explorer that came to America 500 years before Columbus. Helfgott lived in Denmark for some time in my home town though I regrettable never met him at that time. When he played his birthday concert in Copenhagen after the regular set he kept running off stage asking his wife if he could play another piece. She rushed him in again and he ran back on stage and asked the audience if he could play another piece. The love from the audiience was never ending. He ended up playing double time, a night never to forget. I still cry when I reminisce.
That’s the best scene of the entire movie. Great how bar owner shuts up quick.
That piano was surprisingly well tuned and regulated for an ancient 2-pedal upright.
They always are………..Hollywood don’t you know!
Suspend your disbelief 😄
you have to keep your temperament equal
It would've sounded bad though on a honky tonk piana!
Great scene from a fabulous movie.
I cried a lot watching this movie 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍
What a great movie that was. One of the best.
I fecking love this scene !!!!
Geoffrey Ruh really can and did play Rimsky-Korsikoff's "Flight of the Bumblebee", from memory, at that speed. What an intellectual achievement that was !
That’s incredible!
This is the meaning of kickass badass on how to beat a bully. A piano.
Fab Geoffrey Rush on an antique upright grand piano. Wonderful job. Rush is top drawer. Cheers.
I remember watching David playing at Riccardos wine bar (where this scene took place). He had the smoke on the lip and had turned his body to order a drink from a waiter, his hands just kept playing. Incredible. Geoffrey Rush had no hand double in this movie, and claims to not be a pianist, so you have just witnessed the greatest acting to ever be captured on film.
Are you sure there was no hand double? It’s just to damn perfect!
I'm skeptical on the hand double claim, they don't show him fully playing and face at the same time, fun to watch though
"It's a mystery!"
@@ken6771His hands studied method acting while he took a smoke!
Ain't no way a non-pianist could do this, actor or not.
One of the best cinematic scenes and one of the best films ever !! Genius
It still brings tears to my eyes
I saw this movie with one of the best human beings I have ever met. Miss you.
when your enemy tries to roast you but you tell them to watch and fk off
I saw David Helfgott play last night, and he did the Bumblebee as the 2nd encore. I'll never forget the moment when he kicked it off!
My favourite scene in my favourite film of all time 👍👍👍👍👍
Shine è un film meraviglioso, commovente, splendido! Recitato magistralmente dal protagonista, Geoffrey Rush, fa' ridere, fa' pensare, fa' piangere, pensando alla triste vita a cui è stato costretto il povero David, un ragazzo pieno di talento e fragile, troppo fragile x fronteggiare quell'orribile padre! 😠😑😔... È difficile guardare questo film senza commuoversi... 😢😢
Still my favorite scene in the movie. It has a great silent energy about it b/c the people in the bar are transfixed on his playing.
This movie is a masterpiece!
Дэвид! Я тебя просто люблю! Ты гениален в каждой роли! Браво., маэстро... Мастер!!!

Geoffrey Rush was so lucky to get such a great role, and he did a great job of it. David was a true genius, no matter what his father thought.
About some 65 years ago, a high school classmate, Albert Laidlaw, played this at M.D.H.S. It was amazing to hear then and still is today.
parte de la película "Shine" una de mis preferidas, aquí es cuando una vieja amiga decide apoyarle dándole una oportunidad de tocar el piano en su pequeño restaurant, cuando el toca unas cuantas notas alguien del publico lo "invita" con tono altanero a dejar el piano y es cuando sorprende a lo comensales con esta ejecución..magistral. Al final de la película él halla el amor de su vida de manera circunstancial y es quien reactiva su carrera, apoyándole en todo.
En la traducción esa persona dijo: ¿Por qué no tocas algo Liberace?
