The elderly lady was played by Lois Kelly Miller. She is considered a national treasure in Jamaica. She died last year at the age of 102. R.I.P.
RIP lady.
The same week and year Brad Pitt was visiting her .
@@knightnrmer maybe he was an Obeah man then. Spooky
Thank you for posting this factoid. I can now pay my respects to this wonderful actress.
What a beautiful lady. 🙏❤️😔
Strangest thing about this scene is how quick she gets to see a doctor
ya is too right maaan (in my best patois!)
Y’all need to go to better hospitals. I’ve never waited more than 15 minutes for a doctor.
😂😂😂😂
I used to Work at E.R. and doctors dosent look like that After a graveyard shift and I have never had a patient getting seen by a doctor that fast
It was filmed before Obamacare.
I love how death does nothing but try to comfort her in this scene from speaking in her accent in a respectful manner to put her at ease, to explaining he has nothing to do with the pain, and to giving her a glimpse of the paradise she gets to go to in the “next place”
That's because he already knows she's a good woman and is destined to go to Heaven. It might be different for a person who was NOT good in life.
Death does not care one way or the other. One life, one death. For everyone.
Holy hell, its like you watched the scene
Poetic in the way that everyone has their time, but death awaits patiently for all, there is no struggle, when it's our time we just slip away "to that next place". I thoroughly enjoyed watching this film, one of brad pitt's best work in my opinion.
For blind people like me it's useful when people describe exactly what happened in the video. Oh wait I can't read. @@Dingleberrycrunch36
That whispered "Soon" gets me every time. It's a reassurance for her, but also implies that he knows the exact time already.
Death knows the time and place, always.
❤
Duh
great comment
He is Death after all. He knows when everyone and everything will die to the exact second. Sure it's God's plan but God gave Death the book. Well more like the bus schedule when ya think about it.
First woman ever to beg: "Don't leave me alone with Brad Pitt."
excellent.
So true !!!
😂
Maybe, but she still left with a smile on her face.

"I'm from that next place" Something comforting in that phrase.

The willingness of the camera to linger on her performance even as Brad Pitt speaks says a lot about where the directors mind was for this scene ❤️
They way both act is a masterclass, really. This might be my favorite scene in the movie and it's a movie I really like as a whole.

"I realize now, my being here isn't quite appropriate" Great writing and great scene design. Brad Pitt was perfect for this part with his delivery on his lines.
The dichotomy of how each of the two parses that sentence is so funny. The lady thinks he is just trying to be polite and non obtrusive, while the literal death on holiday has just now realized it's kinda fucked up that he is in the place where people suffer and, often, die. Hah.
there is so many lines in this film that have a double meaning
I love that he's a being with nigh-omniscience and as he learns more and lives in humanities shoes he has empathy and gains a perspective.
@@ReplayableContent Yeah he did great as portraying his character learning grief when for Death all this time dying is just a part of life.
As a Jamaican this is one of the only times I was shocked, impressed and flattered by a movie scene. He put in some great effort into that and you can tell he learned it from an actual Jamaican
Thank you. I always wanted to know if he actually managed the patois.
@@elibell19 truth is her patois is very old. Jamaican Patois is always evolving and sounds very different from it did in her time But you can tell she is definitely Jamaicn and lived here. As for his patois it's a little more complicated. Because ff he was speaking it fully most of the audience wouldn't understand a thing. It's really TV patios, But he captured a lot of the nuances you just couldn't know unless he was taught. The impressive part, as weird as it is, isn't really the delivery but the preparation. And only Jamaicans would notice.
@@JamaicanMeCrazy thank you for sharing this. I always wanted to know. I didn't know this lady was such a well known actor. I always thought she stole the scenes she was in ❤️
@@elibell19 she's a national treasure
@@JamaicanMeCrazy Thank you for explaining this in more depth. I think (hope) we would agree that both these actors are very fine and totally believable in their roles. God rest the lady, Lois Kelly Miller.
Her face when he tells her he's on holiday is priceless.

@@SeliahK what is patois exactly

@@mehchocolate1257 Jamaica, you never heard this accent before ? songs even
I think whether or not brad pitt did a perfect job with the patois this is a great example of great scene writing, and him doing the accent is handled quite reverently. it's not mocking the accent or using it as a gimmick it's showing us how death has been everywhere and it's part of everyone and everything. it's something that connects everyone, and isn't that a good reminder?
@Katie I’m often reminded of the cartoon The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy with Grim being Jamaican. So perfect and iconic, death is wise but lost 2 a couple of kids to be their best friend for all eternity. And on Lucifer, Uriel aka Death pretends to be a ghost and talks to Ella Lopez as her friend. And on Supernatural- Billie the reaper becomes the new Death who will be the one to reap God. Plus on Billy and Mandy there is a colorful bend of supernatural and divine characters - a hunter is dating Eris the goddess of chaos while she does a ditzy valley girl routine.
@Katie it’s the “job” for lots of actors but very few take the time to do it properly. Tom cruise in Valkyrie, gene Hackman in a bridge too far, etc...
That's why its a great example of how to imitate a culture without degrading the culture, an unfortunate problem in Hollywood. Patience, understanding, and respect.

@@fredvasquez4201 It's not really a spoiler, you understand he's Death in the first part of the movie
@@fredvasquez4201 not really a spoiler as this is the movie's premise
LOL
This is such a beautiful scene. Most people dread the idea of facing death, but this woman literally meets him in person and quickly accepts him as a friend. Because death doesn’t always have to be the ugly ending people think it is.
Well she was terrified at first then accepted it.
Also, this is a movie. It's my belief only harm can come from spreading messages such as 'death isn't ugly'. Yes it is, it most definitely is. Inevitable, but oh-so-ugly.
@@user-xe8xh2qb9w Death is ugly sometimes just as birth is ugly (serious trauma there). But in each case it passes quickly and the “other side” is quite lovely. It was difficult watching some elderly loved ones pass, but knowing their peace from pain was comforting.
@@mottopanukeiku7406 There is no "other side". Wishing will not make it so.
@@user-xe8xh2qb9w I think life is the other side of birth. If there is nothing after death, that is an other side as well. Just void, eternal sleep or similar. I don’t remember anything before I was born, and it may be the same after birth. I guess we will all find out eventually.
I get chills from their performance together in this scene. When she says ‘Obeah’, and their glances connect as he realises she knows him. The way the actress mastered the rapid changes in mood from terror to supplication is just sublime. I love the way the patois flows in Brad’s performance - the real communication between the actors is happening at the heart level, and as others have commented, you almost miss the beauty in the crafted lines of the script.
I just wish the rest of the movie were this good.
are you mad or what?this movie is one masterpiece and this scene is just little refreshing@@FeministCatwoman
@@YOJOMQ2015 This movie is a remake of Death Takes a Holiday and from what I've seen it's lacking in holding my interest. And the scene where he gets run over by 3 different cars is just too ridiculous to take seriously. If it were a comedy, I could maybe get behind it but what I've seen of it just looks so boring and silly. But I agree that this scene is amazing and I'm sure the movie is full of great moments like these. So no, I'm not mad, I like humane stories like these.
Cringey u get chills lol
@@adamgreen6531 cringey you find a well acted, emotional scene cringey 🤡
My favourite thing about this scene is the irony at the end. He says " I realize, my being here, is not quite appropriate." The girl says, "no, please, don't apologize", because she thinks he means visiting her at work. But he is talking about being the grim reaper hanging around at a hospital. So good.
That is also the most obvious part of this scene? Good for you, you managed to appease the vast majority!
@@Gnossiene369 didn't say it was the most hidden thing. Just that it's my favorite. I like dramatic irony a lot.
@@Gnossiene369 You dont need to be a dick
YASSSSS!!!!!!! You nailed it with that analysis. That's what's going on here. He has blonde hair as well, and a black suit.
Sooo sooo good! Lol
It’s obvious how much practice he put into learning patois. FROM AN ACTUAL JAMAICAN!!! I don’t expect perfection but he did a really good job considering
shut yuh claat. him nuh mek it not even close.
lol the average white Mancunian from south Manchester England does a much better job. I’m sat with a ‘Jamaican/British’ man now and he’s laughing saying I sound more ‘Jamaican’ than him and I’m classed as a ‘white’ blue eyed ‘devil man’ hahaha 🤣 Nah we all get along here. Look up Moss Side Manchester. Literally most young people here regardless of colour speak Patois.
@@mackcarlo even the angel of death needs a vacation 😂😂😂😂
What did he consider? You said he did a good job of considering. 😉
@@louskunt9798 the considering.. speculation of course him being a white actor? And of course how difficult the accent is too nail
I love that little moment where her fear and suspicion immediately relaxes the moment he says he’s holiday. It’s like she found the concept of death taking a vacation so amusing she couldn’t help but want to humor him.
plus he be a pretty hung fella approaching her. compliments are always. great scene no doubt
I think he showed her what heven is like
Incredible acting by Brad Pitt. Before he was hit by that car and death took over, you see the sparkle in his eyes, you see "life" but then, when death takes over, it's gone, no emotions whatsoever and you forget it's Brad Pitt even if it's for a few seconds and then, in the end, when he walks back to the dance floor, he's got that sparkle back in his eyes that's just incredible acting I think.
Good observation, though I think it sort of comes back as he learns about humanity. There's even a scene where he is having dinner later on and is laughing. This scene here was one where I think he started to learn what suffering and compassion was really about.
@@chriswhite3692 So we see that his "holiday" was all part of God's plan to make Death a better Death.
@@sonofizzy Right. It was an interesting sort of coming of age in a way.I can't help but think it may have been loosely based off of an older story; it sounds familiar.
I have always thought Brad Pitt is a great actor. He is never the same in any role. I think his extreme good looks hides this fact. imagine a director saying to you ,I want you to play death. Where the hell would you start? Pitt nailed it.
@chriswhite3692 I believe - if you are talking about movies - that there was a black-and-white predecessor to this movie in which the lady goes with Death as his bride. I cannot recall the name. There is also the movie, Death Takes a Holiday, not quite on point, which I recommend. Take care and have a great day!

She passed away in Jamaica yesterday - April 8, 2020. A beautiful soul who I had the chance to meet and speak with on several occasions. She was a good friend of my grandmother. A true Jamaican gem. May she rest in sweet peace
Was she really 102 years-old?
R.I.P lovely lady

I believe so much shes home in that beautiful place of love that made her smile like that ..god bless..❤
When Brad Pitt do the Jamaican dialogue, it was that impressed me - his acting is sublime, and Lois Kelly Miller's performance is like the catalyst that brings the best in both of them.
he actually learned how to keel dem soundbwoy in preparing for the role.
The part where she closes her eyes. It's as if she can see into the next place. And all the people in her life are waiting for her. Her husband. Her parents. All the loved ones that left her behind just waiting. She now has something to look forward to. A beautiful scene.
Well, THAT got me in tears now
When he showed her "The Next Place" and she opened her eyes, they dance around for a second before making eye contact with him, as if regaining her surroundings after being taken on a journey. This is brilliant acting at the sublime level.
My great grandmother told me that there’s nothing worse then thinking that heaven is “just watching over your family” as she’s done that 101 years and that the last thing she wants to do is continuing this into the next place. She said if heaven is real it should be freeing you from all that. I know exactly what she’s saying and I don’t think enough people realize this isn’t what people want for for when they die and that’s just something that YOU want and makes YOU feel better, it’s not about them at all.
@@bradenharris8718well that’s beautiful. You’re right we should be free in the afterlife not worry about our family ❤

I love the way she recognises him for what he is, and he knows she sees him.
Voodoo and witchcraft is a live thing in the islands
It is showing she is a spiritually inclined woman.
When my grandmother was dying, she could see "them" coming for her.
I always thought BP looked kinda spooky in this scene.
They do say when someone is closed to crossing, the veil is at its thinnest for them. They can see things the normal living can't.
She recognized him as the Angel of Death, that’s why she wasn’t taken aback by his ability to speak patois because angels can speak any language they need to.
We all understood what was being said. Does that make us all angels?
leonche64 understanding a language isn’t the same as speaking it I can understand some french but barely can get by
No she was too busy wondering why his accent was so shitty if he is a higher being lmao
If I remember correctly, didn't she see him get hit by the cars?
Cecily Erker Finally the voice of reason really!
This scene breaks me like nothing else. I'm half Jamaican but was raised in rural Midwestern US, and since my father was pretty absent I didn't really have a link to Jamaican culture outside of my grandmother. As much as she cherished me, Patois always felt like a barrier between us. Since it straddles the line between language and dialect, it was hard for my family to justify properly teaching it to their children, especially given how isolated we were from a larger Caribbean community. Patois was how she felt most comfortable relating to people, but I could never use it to relate to her. As friends and relatives the same age as her died off, she began to use it less and less before pretty much dropping it. In her last few years of her life, I could understand just how isolated she felt. She had immense pain from aging, but there was nobody left with whom she could speak candidly about it. I really really wished I could do that for her. The linguistic concept of this scene plays out like one of the conversations I imagined between us. Love you, grandma.
Death’s observation that his presence is disruptive to the sick and dying people at the hospital is fantastic character development.
and how kickass is Brad Pitt? he went to see her when she was in hospital in 2017 at 100yrs birthday,, yes thats how awesome he is.. Legend.
Really? Sometimes our idols don't disappoint.
Wouldn't it have been funny if he came in his "Death" persona and told her "Me come fi yuh like me say me wud" or something like that 😂😂😂
Wanted to learn more "me too tuh tuh speak lagwaze"

“While we go do some paperwork we’re going to leave you alone with this stranger that you are clearly afraid of and begged us not to leave you with.”
😳
Yah I noticed that too lol
To be fair they're in a public place (hospital) with cameras and security and stuff
Haha, that's so funny.
Shes in a wheel chair....they ckuld have wheeled here along with them lol!
I love how she was afraid of him at first and then understood later he was going to take her on to that next place and there was nothing to fear. But when it was her time, he would take her. He made it clear he was not evil and then she trusted him. Beautiful.
She just got the greatest news imaginable. I'd be so over the moon happy to meet Joe Black - knowing that there's an afterlife would be so tremendously incredible. She should be beside herself in relief and happiness. I don't believe there is one. Well, maybe I should word that better. There's absolutely no reason to believe there is one, and believing in something for no reason is what a delusional person does. I'll put it that way,
I always laugh when she smirks and says "...some spot you pick!" 😂
Death going on holiday and spending it in a hospital. Lol
"Make it go away!" "I can't, Sister" "You can, Mister" beautiful cadence in the rhythm of their dialogue 🌟
Best part of the scene for me. Melodic is the only way I can describe hearing it.
it struck me too as i lsitened but it didnt register till you said it
Yes. Next moment he looks up - apparently to his superior, God; asks and gets allowance to give her relief already here and now...
Lol thats how island people duh talk stays rhyming while talkin
Nah, you're reaching...he looked at the desk where the doctor and the daughter were standing by, just to make sure they won't notice :)
This scene is so beautifully done. A wise old woman can see the "otherworldliness" of him. Joe is surprised by this and the fact that she thinks he's evil. Masterful use of micro expressions by Brad Pitt to portray this. I must admit, I teared up when he compassionately showed her where she was going before whispering "soon..."
and rightly so Pitt is a Freemason in the Satanic Occult of Hellywood, where will is distorted making the whole world a stage for fools.
Before she "sees" him, he double takes. Either he knows she is gifted and can see or he can see that she is close.
@@Port19692 I think it's more the latter but like her I had the sense death was coming not for me for my grandmother
@@altruismfirst6489 "hellywood" just sounds stoopid lol

The fact that he’s in a slim, well tailored black suit adds to the scene. But the whole “I’m here to take people to next place” mixed with the elderly woman, the light and dark, makes this scene everything.
Brad Pitt is truly a gem of an actor. He takes his roles seriously and does his homework, especially learning the dialects required to pull off a believable tone from any distinct region of the Globe.

I'm not a huge Pitt fan but I really liked this movie and his performance in it. This scene especially.
It definitely is a profound line. But as cool as I think Pitt delivered it, I think the credit should go to the writers.

@@thoroughbredelite what is patois exactly
@@mehchocolate1257 A patois in general is a sort of halfway-between language, with words from one or more languages, and grammatical rules also split between them both. It's an early step to the creation of an entirely new language. When they are talking about Patois, capitalized, they specifically mean the English-French-Bantu-Yoruba patois from the Caribbean islands. That's where linguists first realized that it was its own thing, instead of calling it a 'debased' form of whichever language was higher status.
I can't edit the above, but it has come to my attention that Patois is (partly) descended from Akan, not Bantu.
I always thought it was so cool how the old lady recognized him for what he was.
Nicole Rozenfeld Death. His job was letting people know their time was up and the old lady saw him for what he was.

Beautiful touching scene. She immediately recognized that he was not what he appeared to be. A very talented actress, and sad to hear she passed away.
I heard Brad Pitt visited her a couple years ago while it was her time to go. Hope it’s true.
We all die. She clearly had a wisdom that let her approach death better than most. While she was certainly a great actress, her faith in the other there was transparent in this scene.
...soon...RIP lovely lady.
Well she WAS 102 lol. It’s not like she went before her time or anything. That’s a nice long life.
Amazing such a subtle change in her expression she goes from pain to total contentment and peace.
Nice comment Chris how are you doing and how is the weather conditions over there
Death smiles at us all, the best thing a man can do is smile back. - Marcus Aurelius
I am originally from the Caribbean (the island of Saint Lucia where Patios is our second language after English). Of course his patois is not perfect but it's a hell of alot better than some American actors who play French West Indian characters in movies. I'll take Brad Pitt's patois over theirs any day. And besides, this is a very touching scene. He plays the personification of Death in this film but he plays Death not as a terrifying force but rather as a lifelong friend who comforts you. One of his best and earlier films. I love it!
Amen

This is a very touching scene. Death isn't mean or evil, it's just doing a job. And, to top it all death has compassion and sympathy for the old lady. To top it all of the old lady ends up smiling and getting some measure of reassurance and peace.
My cousin and I had such a laugh... Years ago we watched the DVD, but we changed the language option to German. When this scene came on it switched from German to Dutch! As if Dutch is a pidgin form of German. 🤣
Better option than swiss german xD

Because you're no Brad
Sitting on my bed Sunday morning with power out laughing like I'm watching Laurel and Hardy!!
Joe communicated with the lady in a manner that was normal and comforting. Two great actors doing so much with only s few words.
"I can't, sister" "you can, mister" is amazing dialogue.
Tom Hanks' son watched this before going to the Golden globes

*Clearly, you are ignorant to 🇯🇲 culture.* There are _countless_ White Jamaicans, and they turn a tongue quicker than your head could spin.
Well in this instance that daughter might need to learn to shut it since that “white boy” be da debil 😜
Brad does the patois brilliantly and he also does an Irish (gypsy irish) really well in then English gangster movie: Snatch.
Never understood the bombing of this film at the BO and the poor ratings...As a fantasy movie,the sublime music and the casting done to perfection...this movie is stunning.Overall...cannot understand why Forlani did not blow up huge time after this role.
This woman is one of those actors who can say everything with just her facial expressions!
and a good director won't over script the scene.
@@steves2694 Nor will a good writer.
This actress Doctor should have done so much more work...What happened to her ...???
How her right cheek twitches lightly after her head tilts. That was a moment for me. Like she wanted to smile more broadly or laugh out loud but held it.
I used to wonder what set Marilyn Monroe apart, besides the obvious, what endures. Watch her face, her fluid expressions.
He showed her a glimpse of what is waiting for her on the other side, paradise. No more suffering.
Yes that was the scene. I appreciate it when people point out the obvious. It's quite helpful.
Yep
Well I didn't understand. I thought he took her (took her with him as she asked), and then just took her pain away. So I appreciated this ☺️
@@justadjustor8993 remember when he told her to close her eyes? and when she opened them again he said soon.
@@43coco1 Yeah ☺️
i love this scene even more after it was xplained to me that he didnt take the pain away he just showed her a glimpse of "that next place" beautiful
Help me, I can't stop saying, "everyting gwarn be iree" at work
I'm really not into supersticious stuff but I love how this scene is played. the way joe's eyes get wider when the daughter says that "obeah" means bad spirit is so intense. it kinda shows us that joe is genuinely surprised not only that the old woman can kinda see him but more so that he is mistaken for something that he is not, something bad. he seems to realize in that split second that there are many misconceptions among human culture concerning death. he is mistaken for something bad although he is just something more universal than that. I don't know if that is deliberate but it fits the whole atmosphere of the scene so well. I love this movie!
Very nice observation 😉👍,.I totally get you!👌🤝👏👏
Yesss and there’s like a few moments where he’s debating whether to keep the facade of being just a regular guys but he can tell she’s near death and sees through his cover so he decides to let her, this one lil old Jamaican lady nearing the end of her time in on his secret and give her a sense of warmth in the midst of her pain when in all reality he could’ve just as easily pretended that she’d gone crazy and he had no idea what she was talking about. It’s a kinda quiche early 2000’s romance movie but there’s still some real beauty in it:-)
I had this dvd for years but I’ve never really watch it until 2 days ago This scene creep me out
🤣 Yeah, he was slightly offended by that.
@@lukekelchner5471 On top of that, she became his confidant...perhaps the first and only in all creation.

Yes, but now after you've completed your kung fu training, you are strong! Now go and challenge your rival and face certain death, for I have purposely trained you wrong haha! By the way, i yelled all this in a french accent so go back and read it with a french accent. This will complete your tae kwon do training.

Same!
I feel the moment he says him being there is not quite appropriate deserved more attention. I feel it's not because he's visiting her at her workplace, but the fact that he is Death casually walking around a hospital.
Agreed!👌💯
Brad Pitt is not just a great actor but also a great man. He went to visit her in the hospital around her 100th birthday. It takes true compassion to do that. I bet he spoke in with a Jamican accent as well..
was errtin ire though?

Don't know why I like that scene so much. I think it's the profound insight the woman has to see what others can't. For being the personification of death he treats her with such respect and is so gentle.
I agree
Makes me think of Robert Redford's portrayal of Death in the Twilight Zone episode Nothing In The Dark. That one always gets me emotional.
@@tomstanziola1982 Omg! I saw that episode for the first time like two years ago and it was AMAZING! Gave me all the feels!
@@island_girl It's one of my favorite Twilight Zone episodes of all time. I just love the story. And Robert Redford really delivers a fantastic performance, especially after it's revealed that he is Death. I love when the old lady realizes that she's dead already, and Death says to her..."What you were afraid would come like a shout...was but a whisper." It's great when he tips her a friendly wink, and says, "Mother, come with me. It's time to rest." And they leave the building arm in arm. Beautiful writing!!!! Fantastic acting, by Redford and Gladys Cooper, as the old lady.
@@tomstanziola1982 yes! That line is one of the best lines I've ever seen in a movie/tv show (the whisper one). Had be bawling! ❤
That is one of my favourite scenes of all times. The actors, the script, the scenery, and the fact that it has some spirituality and humour. 👌
Worth considering is that Pitt’s job here was to convince us that he’s supernaturally fluent in all dialects including Patois, while ensuring he’s still understandable to the general audience who doesn’t speak it. So he couldn’t be too deep in his impersonation unless they added subtitles.
I have always loved this scene because of Death's compassion. He shows her heaven to make the remainder of her time bearable and then tells her, "Soon." Makes me cry every time I see this.
He shows her the afterlife, not heaven. The afterlife is a universal term for 'whatever comes after death', which is quite literally who he is. This aint no religious hoo haa.
@@kevinh5349 Lol ok 'Kevin'. Notoriously famous name for the stereotypical awkward weeb in highschool.
@@Nathan-oe8ut Seems like you’ve been designated to be that one guy that shows up and ruins everything. You’re the “everything was going great until this jerk showed up guy.” You have my sympathy.
Don't you just love materialists?... They're so blinkered and arrogant, having seen such a meagre sliver of reality they think they know it all.
You are very good at expressing the sentiment of this scene. This is my very favorite movie. Thank you!
Regardless of whether Brad Pitt can speak Jamaican patois well or not, this is a superb scene in a wonderful film. I don't know why this movie took such an unholy amount of shit when it was released. I have watched it a dozen times and it never ceases to hold me spellbound. It is one of the very few movies made in Hollywood which you could call 'metaphysical' in intent - it doesn't shy away from lucidly and intelligently dealing with themes you almost never see discussed in movies; fate, the nature of death, the possibility of immortality, the nature of free will, the power of transformative love....
People prefer SUPERHERO GO BOOM BOOM these days
@@NeonPixels81 yes, I absolutely agree, but that's the movies Hollywood likes to make, because most people are fucking morons who'd rather watch CGI shit than a real movie about real people doing things like horror! talking to one another...
@@NeonPixels81 by the way, this is probably going to age me quite badly, but has anyone noticed that, since the birth of the internet and social media age, most of what passes for popular culture is unrelenting shit?
@@patrickniehus3132 Mediocrity is king these days, everything is inoffensive, but unchallenging, "woke" but unmemorable.
@@NeonPixels81 couldn't agree more.... 1. As you say, everybody is scared of 'triggering' someone or offending someone to make art that confronts people. 2. The social media age has encouraged everyone to think they are a celebrity and worthy of being on tv, regardless of how talentless they are.... 3. In the old days, tv shows and movies had so few outlets, they had to be passably good, or else no one would watch them. They also cost a lot to make, so makers made an effort. Nowadays any fool can put any old shit on a streaming service, or Facebook, or whatever....no quality control....
Man this was a tear jerking moment her smile and relief was so genuine.
The scenes with Ms.Miller were my favorite parts of the movie.
When my father passed I checked out a bunch of movies I didn't know anything about from the library to numb my pain. This was one of them. My dad had been on a ventilator and couldn't speak, but his eyes told me he had much to say. When Bill tells his daughter what a wonderful child she'd been I knew my Dad had helped me pick out this film to give me his message.
Your post has such heart that it brought tears to my eyes. God Bless your father's immortal soul and the family he left behind, of course including you.

Brad Pitt's language work is consistently underappreciated

He sounds Irish. It was terrible.

Listen we don't speak like that at all. And we rally don't say irie
Seriously you're right, we're lucky he can string together enough IQ points to speak English.
I just love this scene. The performance of the elderly lady (Lois Kelly Miller) brings so much humanity and passion to the movie.
The reassuring hand of death….stretching out to greet as one might an old friend.
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson: we have coronavirus. Chet Hanks: everyting gwarn' be irie

The most bizarre part of this scene is the fact that Claire Forlani’s character doesn’t even question him for speaking like that
Sheema Shabahang 🤣🤣🤣
"Have you spent much time in the Islands?" That was it I believe, she was refering to the Carribean. EDIT: I just remembered the whole film, there's so many things she doesn't seem to question. Even when she's almost sure he's some kind of supernatural thing, she just says something among the lines of "I know what[who?] you are. You're Joe". And it's left at that
Paul Charles true
She want some of that bad. If he spoke grasshopper/cricket she would not care
He's Brad Pitt
I know it's a movie but we can be capable of such humanity. The genuineness of the scene is why it's so moving. I find it wonderful to know that Mrs. Miller will live on forever and be remember long after any of us are gone. We really can do such wonderful things when we want to.
It's not like I know patois enough to be a judge of how well Brad Pitt did in this scene but to someone like me it sounds perfect. I especially enjoy the final scenes of this movie so very much. The situation, the MUSIC, the fireworks, just everything works so beautifully together, it gives me goose bumps every time!
“She’s in a great deal of pain.” His micro expressions make it seem like he absorbed her pain into himself, at least for the time.
Or... He made her see what was in store for her. "Soon..."
You are absolutely on point. It is very clear that Death (in this films mythos) can apparently feel and assimilate the experiences of living beings. Like the body he overtook for this vacation. It also seems like the pain she felt is a minor experince for this enitity. He feels it, but it is not strong enough to make him react.
Yeah, they way he slowly blinks, after remarking about her pain always makes me think he kinda let the absorbed feeling wash over him. As if to fully experience it. Being Death though, he quickly dismisses the pain and moves on.
I thought the same exact thing. His voice kind of wavers a little when he says pain
@@gabriel_the_salubri I feel he made the pain not go away but tolerable by showing her what was to come, in "that other place".
Her face when she sees what he shows her is so underrated. Seeing her go from fear to complete peace is incredible.
Agreed, never seen the movie other than here.
IT REALLY WAS A POWERFUL SCENE!!!
Hate yo burst the bubble but he doesn't "show" her anything, he takes her pain away, her face is that of relief. Still an amazing scene.
@@gamble9437 you must be fun for the kids around Christmas time.
@@mattp.4329 Thats a weird and abstract thing to say. Sorry I dont play with children. You miss interpreted the scene, I helped you realise its true meaning, dont see how thats a bad thing. Like I said before, it doesnt take anything away from the scene. Infact it kind of enhance it as death is showing a kind and caring nature by taking her pain away. But you keep believing what you want, makes no difference to me.
Instead of taking her I truly believed he broke his own rules and temporarily took her pain away for just a brief moment. That absolute moment of peace made her smile in bliss. Probably gave her a glimpse of where she was going. 😭
What he did for her is something every person on Earth wants to see and feel that level of Blissfulness 👼😇.
Judging by 'Soon...' I suppose he showed her that next place.
He took her pain away, ground it up, and put it in a big phat blunt. Wah gwon?! Me wan talk to mr. nice guy, seen?
One of my favorite movies. I have a daughter that means the world to me, and I cry every time at the end I cry.I love when Bill asks, “Should i be afraid?”, and death replies, “Not a (for a) man like you.” Also, one Thomas Newman’s best scores. Very similar to Shawshank Redemption
