He called himself a "Survivor" in this clip, yeah right! Living on a tropical paradise is not difficult at all. There is food and drinkable water all around. He himself would likely not have survived on his own there. When he got kicked out, he quickly went insane and got himself in trouble soon after. He had zero survival skills. He only got lucky with that little shark. He can't build a proper shelter and can barely hunt/gather food. He's also a terrible backstabbing and selfish person if you think about it. Not a likable character in my book.
@11cylynt112 жыл бұрын
Also too much of anything gets old fast. Even a tropical paradise gets old eventually. I used to smoke weed daily when I had shingles. I used it for the extreme pain shingles causes. I got the worst kind with postherpetic neuralgia, which causes permanent damage and intense pain to never goes away. I work from home so I was privileged to be able to use it multiple times a day, daily. But I was prescribed the vaccine and it almost completely rid me of the pain. However, I keep smoking weed daily multiple times a day out of habbit. I loved how it made me feel and the whole process was enjoyable. Though, since I was no longer doing it for pain, it became too trivial. It became my new normal. It lost it's excitement and realized I was just going through the motions without much emotion. My tolerance got so strong that I would barely get a mild high even after smoking an entire joint of premium bud, by my self. So I gave myself a choice, either increase my dose to smoking multiple blunts daily, which would become very expensive. Or take a t-break and cut back altogether. I decided to abstain for 2 months. That first bowl after that 2 months break was like smoking for the 1st time all over again. It felt like total euphoria unlike any high I've had in years. There after, I promised myself to only smoke on special occasions, no more than 4 times per month total. Not only would I get super high everytime, but I also only needed 3-5 hits total to get there. I saved so much money that way and it felt special again, gave me something to look forward to. Moral of the story. Pace yourself and find different ways of enjoying life. Because even weed and a tropical paradise can get old fast.

Spoiler alert: This is more akin to the ending in the novel. In the novel, Richard and some others dose the new years party with a massive amount of marijuana. Everyone starts going wild due to the amount of weed, then they find out Richard gave the map to some new tourists, and try killing him with spears. Richard, Etienne, and some others escape on a raft. Richard is saved somehow during the stabbings but i can't recall how. Hence, the line in this clip about the scars is sort of a nod to the book's ending. Some of that might be inaccurate, I read the novel ten years ago but that's the gist of it

"The Big Chunky Charlie is eating up the whole fucking world" -Daffy Who knew how spot on his character actually was in real life? My question is, what happened to Bugz? I mean Sal was his girlfriend, regardless if she just used him for his carpenter skills and sex. He even held Richard and urged her to kill him. Then all of a sudden he's gone or that he left with everyone else? I understand that the beach and the community meant more to Sal than Bugz did or any man or woman for that matter, just curious as to what happened to that character is all. I don't get the hate this film recieves? It's got a wonderful story, beautiful landscapes, fantastic soundtrack that actually goes along side the film, excellent cast, and the story moves along from start to finish. No filler or dull scenes. It's personally in my Top 5 greatest films of all time! And I'm not even a "beach going" person. I love the mountains! Beaches are beautiful and all, but the ocean is an extremely frightening place and im constantly checking everything that bumps into me. So much so, that I can't even enjoy swimming, which defeats the entire purpose.

It makes sense that the producers did not use this ending. This island is suppose to be isolated and untouched from the outside world. A small tour ship going around the island itself would invalidate the entire storyline/point of this movie. I really like this film and it's still in my favs list but both endings are poorly executed. The final cut (Internet cafe) ending being the worse ending of the two. Danny Boyle should have stick to the source material. This alternative ending would have been more suitable for use if Richard and company made their way to the mainland before parting ways from there.

johootly, hi! Here it Comes: The People are threatened by the drug guys after these killed the newcomers. The drug farmer show them the card Richard drew for the now killed travellers and tell them they will kill them all if more travellers arrive on the Island. To make a point they show them the corpses of the murdered victims - naked and full of bullet holes. They leave the corpses in the camp and return to the jungle. That happens at the climax of an anneversary Party. People are drunk by self produced alcohol and extremely high by drugs. Hysterically they "attack" the dead Newcomers making them responsible for the Situation. They dismember the Bodys and cut them to pieces in an act of madness. When they see the Card they recognice that Richard drew it. (He wrote a few sentences for the Americans under the map and signed the text with his Name. In the book Sal wasn`t informed that Richard knew the victims and told them about the Island.) The People form a mob and try to kill Richard with their knives. He gets wounded by countless cuts. In the last moment Etienne, Francois and his other two best friends save him. They attack the others with their fishing spears and strike Sal and Bugs down. Then they flee with Richard with the float (is it called a float?) from the Americans. Only the four escape the Island. Etienne and Francois return to France. Richard and the two other Guys travel back to England. He stays in contact with the two Englishmen and they remain friends. But Francois and Etienne he never saw again. In the book Francois didn`t betray Etienne and there was no sexual relationship between Richard and her. Although they were attrackted to another. I have read that Danny Boyle was forced by the Studio (the Forces behind the curtain) to rewrite the script. The Producers wanted a love Story for Leonardo because of the success of Titanic. There are a lot of differences between the plot of the novel and the movie. Another example: Sal doesn`t force Richard to have sex with her. She never travels with him to buy supplies. Obviously the Producers of the movie wanted to "sex up" the Story. But in the end the movie follows the book in most parts and Mr. Boyle tried to handle the Story with respect. Please forgive me my bad English. I`m no native Speaker or writer in this language.

Solid movie. I would of given it a 7/10 if it wasn’t for the ending. It was anti climatic. And didn’t make the most sense and was kind of a wtf ending. I think the alt ending is better because you know what happens and it gives it a clear cut off.

Agreed. The internet cafe scene kind of idealized what happened on the island. It's almost a 1980s movie ending. I think the alternate would've been truer to the source material.

There is two sides to that story. They got permission to shoot there because the beach was very polluted, there was tons of litter, needles. They restored it to pristine condition but they reshaped the sand and they transplanted some trees. No ne stopped them or protested when they did it but when the government saw the film with the drugs and violence painting Thailand and Thai people in a bad light they went after the filmakers and the 'enviromental damage' was a good reason to sue.
@commissionergordan11 жыл бұрын
the beach only got polluted AFTER the movie came out. I don't know where you got this but this movie made the beach popular for tourists, resulting in litter. it was pretty unknown before the movie came out, not a lot of tourists..
Its laughable that decaprio received a razzie for this movie while the story might be a little out there, their is a lot of solid acting and leo did a damn good job....
the truth is what you have typed.
+sdgrdr107 Danny Boyle never directs bad acting..that's a fact.
when u were in ur 16-20's back in 2000.the beach wasse a great movie... what did older people know back then :D ....
a nomination*
Yeah the movie is only good because of Leonardo DiCaprio if it was some other actor that was shitty then it could of easily made this movie bad
Whoever wrote that ending knows Thailand and the young free spirited people it can draw in and reduce to nothing. Unless you have lived it you wouldn't know. As he said and i can relate. Been there, done that, reduced it all to nothing, only a story that i tell. Hit the nail on the head with that one.
True, but it also manifests a default projection on travelers as hedonists, which is only the case among certain individuals who makes a lot of noise and do a lot of damage, which fits into the post-colonial narrative or trend or fad of the third decade of this century.
Why do people say this movie was bad? It's actually one of my favorites and Leo did a great job (as always).
Yeah, he always seems to do his best in every movie, and he chooses(or is chosen for) the best movies and scripts. Great guy !!
it was dumb at parts, like when he was banished and his life became a video game, but it was quite original and a very memorable movie. it stuck with me forever and i went to that beach a few years after, was very cool to be there. i don't like this alternate ending. i really liked the actual ending, in the internet cafe.
Alot of the scenes were just pure random, and even laughable by how they made little sense to the story.
I just watched this the other day. I think a big problem, at least with me, is that really aren't any likable characters. Especially the main "protagonist", Richard. He's kind of a douche.
Because the plot diverges so far from the book, I'm sure..
I love how out of everything, the guitar was saved
Just watched this movie for the first time in years. Enjoyed the first half, especially the scenery. But holy hell, does it go off the rails during the 2nd.
@Ladiesman1447 maybe when richard goes crazy and all the shit starts going downhill
Danny Boyle does that with this movie and Sunshine. He makes a weird tone shift in both movies at certain points.
He called himself a "Survivor" in this clip, yeah right! Living on a tropical paradise is not difficult at all. There is food and drinkable water all around. He himself would likely not have survived on his own there. When he got kicked out, he quickly went insane and got himself in trouble soon after. He had zero survival skills. He only got lucky with that little shark. He can't build a proper shelter and can barely hunt/gather food. He's also a terrible backstabbing and selfish person if you think about it. Not a likable character in my book.
Also too much of anything gets old fast. Even a tropical paradise gets old eventually. I used to smoke weed daily when I had shingles. I used it for the extreme pain shingles causes. I got the worst kind with postherpetic neuralgia, which causes permanent damage and intense pain to never goes away. I work from home so I was privileged to be able to use it multiple times a day, daily. But I was prescribed the vaccine and it almost completely rid me of the pain. However, I keep smoking weed daily multiple times a day out of habbit. I loved how it made me feel and the whole process was enjoyable. Though, since I was no longer doing it for pain, it became too trivial. It became my new normal. It lost it's excitement and realized I was just going through the motions without much emotion. My tolerance got so strong that I would barely get a mild high even after smoking an entire joint of premium bud, by my self. So I gave myself a choice, either increase my dose to smoking multiple blunts daily, which would become very expensive. Or take a t-break and cut back altogether. I decided to abstain for 2 months. That first bowl after that 2 months break was like smoking for the 1st time all over again. It felt like total euphoria unlike any high I've had in years. There after, I promised myself to only smoke on special occasions, no more than 4 times per month total. Not only would I get super high everytime, but I also only needed 3-5 hits total to get there. I saved so much money that way and it felt special again, gave me something to look forward to. Moral of the story. Pace yourself and find different ways of enjoying life. Because even weed and a tropical paradise can get old fast.
@@11cylynt11 If I remember correctly, Richard was on his own in the jungle for months after Sal caste him out. If that doesn't show survival ability, I don't know what does.
People give this movie a lot of shit but i still think for what its worth its pretty fantastic; it accurately portrays the feelings of travelling and exploring rather than being a tourist, something a lot of people cant seem to tell the difference between.
+CyanideShock Well said...
That's my conclusion also... Did you guys read the book?
+Balvicar101 The book is far superior. The point that it makes is missed completely in the movie, it's such a shame.
Movie's soundtrack is great, i'll give it that!
+CyanideShock Nicely written. A tourist is somebody who knows the terrain, has information, and has an idea of what to expect. In contrast, a traveller or explorer, is naïve, like somebody who has never played poker before, who sits down at a table to play a game where everybody else knows each other, as "the new guy".
The other ending is better, but even in the original ending I get a feeling that Sal still may have killed herself.
daffy's destiny repeats
I agree. It’s mildly implied.
This IS the original, dumbass.
I that was why they never show her die in the other ending. It could be open-ended.
She deserves it tbh
To be honest, this was how I was expecting the film to end. Perhaps it's better that her fate is left open to our imagination as done in the original.
the moral of this story is even hippy communes have a ruling class and as long as nobody around you is suffering, you can have paradise. The second real life gets bloody, westerners view of paradise is shattered.
glad you have a clear mind. now how do we get congress to figure this out?
Wrong, dipshit. Not all hippy communes have a ruler, dumb fuck.
@stirange Wrong, dumb fuck. Not all human get togethers end in bloodshed, dipshit.
the moral of this story is that it's a pretty silly story to begin with - english HACK writer!
@@RagedContinuum You just don't get it.
I just love the beauty in this movie. The idealism. The narrations and messages. They are all pretty relatable even though I have never traveled.
Very true. :D. It was one of those films i guess that either hits the spot or it doesn't. For me it did.
The cinematography in The Beach is truly second to none. As far as the idealism displayed in the film, you see where that got them. There are many messages in The Beach relating to backpacker culture, most of them on display here, rightly, negative. If you do wind up on the road someday, you'll see what I mean.
You should travel if possible. Hope you get the chance sooner rather than later. Gotta do it while you’re young, otherwise you will lose your sense of patience and adventure and then just think somewhere like London or Paris is the most amazing place on earth. Good luck.
Same
Agreed!
Although this ending is nice, I like the actual ending better. The scene opening the email at the cyber cafe is really nice.
I like the message that paradise isn't a place or where you go, it's about capturing a moment in time when you were a part of something and felt amazing.. which lasts forever.
Both the book and the movie are very dark. The alternate dark ending fits well with what happened previously in the movie. Richard would likely have some serious post traumatic stress for the rest of his life due to what he experienced at The Beach Colony.
one of the best films I've ever seen
🍪
Me too
I love this ending, deeper than the other one
The real ending is in the novel. This ending is pulp. The other one is Disneyesque.
Best line, “not just the usual, Oh thats nice…its a real paradise ok!!!” Talking about something real here! Total Classic film to those that graduated in the early 2000’s. Almost went looking for that forbidden place!
Super! Ce film t'a donné le goût des voyages ?? 😊
The dialogue is inspirational, daffy and leo are the best ones, " am not talking about the usual traveling wanks, ideals eh", richard "trust me it's it's paradise, you hope and you dream but you never believe that something is going to happen for you "
Daffy is so dynamic. Lovable yet terrifying. The way him and Richard bond through the movie is so strange. And my favorite quote from daffy. “No offense.. but you’re fucked in the head.. right?” That one gets me every time
I fuckin love this movie. I never knew there was another ending. The one they kept is pretty perfect though.
Me too
Spoiler alert: This is more akin to the ending in the novel. In the novel, Richard and some others dose the new years party with a massive amount of marijuana. Everyone starts going wild due to the amount of weed, then they find out Richard gave the map to some new tourists, and try killing him with spears. Richard, Etienne, and some others escape on a raft. Richard is saved somehow during the stabbings but i can't recall how. Hence, the line in this clip about the scars is sort of a nod to the book's ending. Some of that might be inaccurate, I read the novel ten years ago but that's the gist of it
Glad they didn't use this one.
So under rated
I love the scenes in the beginning when they are travelling around. Reminds me of when I was a young buck travelling around by myself.. before smartphones.. If you got lost, you just had to find your way.
The dialogue is inspirational, daffy and leo are the best ones, " am not talking about the usual traveling wanks, ideals eh", richard "trust me it's it's paradise, you hope and you dream but you never believe that something is going to happen for you "
i didnt have a problem with this ending, but the origional one is better and in glad they switched it
"The Big Chunky Charlie is eating up the whole fucking world" -Daffy Who knew how spot on his character actually was in real life? My question is, what happened to Bugz? I mean Sal was his girlfriend, regardless if she just used him for his carpenter skills and sex. He even held Richard and urged her to kill him. Then all of a sudden he's gone or that he left with everyone else? I understand that the beach and the community meant more to Sal than Bugz did or any man or woman for that matter, just curious as to what happened to that character is all. I don't get the hate this film recieves? It's got a wonderful story, beautiful landscapes, fantastic soundtrack that actually goes along side the film, excellent cast, and the story moves along from start to finish. No filler or dull scenes. It's personally in my Top 5 greatest films of all time! And I'm not even a "beach going" person. I love the mountains! Beaches are beautiful and all, but the ocean is an extremely frightening place and im constantly checking everything that bumps into me. So much so, that I can't even enjoy swimming, which defeats the entire purpose.
The book of course is a much deeper experience into this story if you are a fan of the film
Leonardo is such a good actor with cleverness expressions leading to infinite and beyond. The movie is deep. The book is deeper. The reality of the author's life might be more underground or not.
It makes sense that the producers did not use this ending. This island is suppose to be isolated and untouched from the outside world. A small tour ship going around the island itself would invalidate the entire storyline/point of this movie. I really like this film and it's still in my favs list but both endings are poorly executed. The final cut (Internet cafe) ending being the worse ending of the two. Danny Boyle should have stick to the source material. This alternative ending would have been more suitable for use if Richard and company made their way to the mainland before parting ways from there.
May I ask what was wrong with the internet cafe ending? And is the ending different in the book?
good point, i didn't think about that. a ferry just a few miles out would hardly make it a secret island. the internet cafe ending was great i thought. back to reality, cleaned up, a normal person now. awesome music, the picture giving him a great memory of a moment in time, but he's moving on from it, it's in the past.
The internet ending is brilliant and real life! I ended up back in an Internet cafe after my twelve month adventure twenty years ago checking emails on people I had met in Australia. It’s an excellent ending.
This is absolutely NOTHING compared to the brutal ending of the book. I liked the movie until I read the book - now it's a pretty, intriguing hack job. Still, this ending is a BIG improvement over the corny romantic ending they used.
How does the book end
johootly, hi! Here it Comes: The People are threatened by the drug guys after these killed the newcomers. The drug farmer show them the card Richard drew for the now killed travellers and tell them they will kill them all if more travellers arrive on the Island. To make a point they show them the corpses of the murdered victims - naked and full of bullet holes. They leave the corpses in the camp and return to the jungle. That happens at the climax of an anneversary Party. People are drunk by self produced alcohol and extremely high by drugs. Hysterically they "attack" the dead Newcomers making them responsible for the Situation. They dismember the Bodys and cut them to pieces in an act of madness. When they see the Card they recognice that Richard drew it. (He wrote a few sentences for the Americans under the map and signed the text with his Name. In the book Sal wasn`t informed that Richard knew the victims and told them about the Island.) The People form a mob and try to kill Richard with their knives. He gets wounded by countless cuts. In the last moment Etienne, Francois and his other two best friends save him. They attack the others with their fishing spears and strike Sal and Bugs down. Then they flee with Richard with the float (is it called a float?) from the Americans. Only the four escape the Island. Etienne and Francois return to France. Richard and the two other Guys travel back to England. He stays in contact with the two Englishmen and they remain friends. But Francois and Etienne he never saw again. In the book Francois didn`t betray Etienne and there was no sexual relationship between Richard and her. Although they were attrackted to another. I have read that Danny Boyle was forced by the Studio (the Forces behind the curtain) to rewrite the script. The Producers wanted a love Story for Leonardo because of the success of Titanic. There are a lot of differences between the plot of the novel and the movie. Another example: Sal doesn`t force Richard to have sex with her. She never travels with him to buy supplies. Obviously the Producers of the movie wanted to "sex up" the Story. But in the end the movie follows the book in most parts and Mr. Boyle tried to handle the Story with respect. Please forgive me my bad English. I`m no native Speaker or writer in this language.

This is the one of my all-time favourite films I'm the same age as Leonardo decapricon it reminds me of the good and best days of my life ❤️😊🤗😅best sound track to ever be on a film there will never be one like it again. 🇬🇧 Love to all the fans and film crew
I think you're right about the soundtrack. I think it's about how the sight and sound were perfect for each other.
One of the greatest quotes I've ever herd...
Dark ending, this. The one that made it to the big screen is better.
wow...I didn't know that..and this was my favorite movie
This should have been the original ending. Fits much better with the direction the film went in. This has to be the original ending Danny Boyle intended, where as the ending we see in the film seems more of a studio idea. Clearly shot months after.
Loved the book - I wonder why they shifted so much half the story. Ps: read all of if in my honeymoon visiting our beautiful coast in northeast brazil, so it matched the vibe of travelling I was on
This ending is much better than the original.
Sweet, thanks man
I know this is off topic, but does anyone know the name of the song that goes "aheeee aiii!" in this movies' trailer. It's been playing in my head forever!
Exodus - Guilty touched by vast
agree who would they not put it in it brings closure to paradise I think.
i think the original ender is darker, they just left her alone to go mad on an island, with no way of getting home.
this was a great movie.
I think it's pretty symbolic that they get rescued by a party boat
Good catch. It really is one of those movies that you see something you mossed every time you watch it.
@@dominysynclair danny boyle is great at that. There's loads of examples in trainspotting.
Hardly an alternate ending, basically the ending in the book.
Like the film for the visuals alone but the book was so much better wld urge all to read it
It's also another fine example of the hippy commune/communist society falling apart. There is always one asshole who want's to be the boss, that's been our story for centuries.
1:09 worst death scene attempt EVER 🤣🤣
Crazy ending
At the end of the book does richard and francais get together? Or does she send him an email like at the end of the movie:)
Apparently there could be a sequel-prequel series for The Beach in the works 👍👍🙏
Info ou intox? Le film est basé sur le livre qui se termine au moment où les protagonistes doivent quitter les lieux. Je ne vois pas tellement comment porter une intrigue là dessus. Ça irait à l'encontre du message qui est passé par l'auteur.
Weed is legal now in Thailand. Someone should make a "if the Beach happened today" spoof.
I'm looking desperately for the unabridged audio book. Any finders? Is anyone looking for something that I may have...or find? So interested! Thx in advance, A
its there on youtube
They were so stupid. Richard was so stupid. Once they knew that the surfers were on the island, Richard(Leonardo DeCaprio) should have come running out of the jungle screaming and told the surfers about the drug farmers on the island and how everyone was dead. They could have gotten off the island, Richard could have given the surfers the slip and then met up with Sal for a trip back to the island.
Airdriver, hi! Very good idea! Really. Richard`s behaviour at this part of the Story (both novel and movie) was unbelievable cruel. He murdered the Guys and Girls! And later there is not one sentence in the book where he pitys or even reflects this fact. Okay, his state of mind was deranged at this part of the plot. But later back in England (on the last one or two pages of the novel) he shows zero remorse with the victims. What a bastard!
this ending is crazy
One of my fav. It has a feeling to it. I’ve never been travelling and never would go, but with this movie, I don’t need to.
I've read the book :) it was awesome,yeh, I think they still attack Richard though,i remember reading something about everyone attacking him rather than just Sal,and then Keaty,Francoise,and Etienne return from the beach and save him,and then only them plus Jed leave or something,from what i remember :D
i actually like . this one more
why was a ferry headed towards the island? I thought no boats were allowed to travel that way b/c it's a national park which is why they had to secretly swim to get there in the first place!?
yeah i know right?
This is the best film about selfishness I can think of
so true!
Movie was a big part of my coming of age. Captured my imagination in a very unique way. Too be that age again and do something a fraction as special…..
Depending on your circumstances you still could.
I dont know why, but in those days, I hoped Sal would carry on somehow living in that island, alone.
dam this was intense glad they went with the other one
This is a way better ending
I like this ending a lot more. It's a good example of a spoiled kid not being able to handle it and just offing herself when she can't have it her way. Just watched it again tonight for the first time in years and I forgot how much I hated these kids. Immature, over privileged college brats partying on mommy and daddies money, and refusing responsibility, wanting to run away, get drunk, party and fuck all the time. This film is a good example of what's wrong with a lot of youths today.
Says the guy in the same state as Woodstock 😂
Spot on. I would tend to also say that every generation seems to have youth as you described: spoiled, over privileged brats spending mommy and daddy’s money to party and get f***** up constantly.
I have been to this island and it I beautiful! The Thai people have no problem with the film- it is some of their livelihoods as millions of tourists flock here! However because of this and no government regulation the beach is now practically destroyed form excessive boat fuel and is trampled like hell :(
This is sad to read
there's a lot of differences between the book and the movie. I do like the movie better. In the book Richard is British, he never gets with Francois, I'm the end he Etienne, and Keaty pick pocket people for money so they can get back home. Either way, both endings make me depressed. It's such a good story ans it sucks when it's over.
brownmetal and Richard saw on TV that Cassie was caught in airport for smuggling over a pound of heroin
@Ladiesman1447 I find it isn’t as fulfilling as the book. It’s much happier, but the book was much more memorable as a clear expression of the dangers of trying to maintain paradise.
I loved that film when I saw it in 2000 . Maybe this ending was cut out because it was little bit clouse to Titanic.
Much more tragic emotionally effective ending

I love the beach and far cry 3 for similar reasons, reasons that I can't fully explain but really specific ones. Well, that was a pointless statement but I gave it anyway.
You might be right.i would love to see the wilder parts of the world. I hate being locked away from them.
