The beauty is the contrast between the british clinical modern society, laced with the posh class system, juxtaposed against the absolute degradation of society. This one scene tells you 8% of all you need to know is going on. People, even inner city london people, are living in quarters close to slums, there is a tenuous middle class of professionals like Theo who live too close to that slum for comfort, and then there's the military creating a ring of steel around the elite along the parade. Even the utility of the "ark" is a joke. WHy preserve art if there will be no humans in 50 years time to enjoy it? It's just another bit of ego stroking and distraction.

My fan theory is that Alex was in prison or involved with gang activity hence the street/prison tattoos on his hand and neck. He has a deep scare on his face which to me resembles a bullet wound, perhaps he was a spoiled powerful rich kid with no real direction or purpose in life and took pleasure in criminal life and violent behavior. Since his dad is so powerful he usually always gets out of legal trouble somehow. Maybe he eventually got shot in the face and became mentally or physically disabled from it. Now he lives a life of house arrest and probation, maybe apart of his sentencing is to have a mandatory prescription to a mood balancer kinda like future riddaline but with no FDA oversight. No he lives docile life heavily medicated to suppress his violent behavior as hence why Nigile easily freaked out when his son wasn’t complying to his mandatory meds.

This scene by itself could have been the basis for an entire film showing the end of civilization and how the wealthiest of the world would remain in denial, lest their extreme comfort be interrupted. In fact, there are many stories which combine these elements already. Check the Old Testament of the christian bible, where the only equalizing force that can affect the wealthy and powerful is a reticent god who appears only sporadically. That's how we know he is fiction, created to assuage the fears of destitution for the masses.

@daweller4 жыл бұрын
Nice analysis, but it's worth pointing out that the 'mansion' in this scene is actually supposed to be the 'Ark of Arts', a refurbished (and digitally enhanced) Battersea Power Station - still very much within London, and only two or three miles from the street that we first see Theo being driven down. You get the impression that we're moving out into the country just because the route goes past some of London's large parks. At the time of filming, Battersea Power Station was just a shell, having been decommissioned and left to rot for decades - but that whole area has now been redeveloped and the restored Power Station will be host to a campus, shops, events venue and roof gardens.
@miked18692 жыл бұрын
It's meant to be within a few km's of the masses you just saw. You saw that military blockade? That's them separating the elite from the plebs. Theo is meant to work for some government ministry, likely getting the job due to his connections. Heh as relatives inside the elite world, but he lives with everyone else, albeit a bit better than most.

Rex"’s classic 1971 album, "Electric warrior" and later reunited with part of the original Crimson lineup as a member of the "21st century schizoid cand", his final major project was the rootsy rock band "Honey West", King Crimson did also two "John Peel sessions" (65, d. 2004) in 1969, King Crimson was sampled by many alternative bands, but also hip hop artists, f.i. by Kanye West, Phat Kat, Pharaoe Monch, Gang Starr, Sagopa Kajmer, The Hive, Moving Strings and Crimson Jazz Trio etc. !

Did anyone notice the Picasso painting on the wall. That painting depicts the bombing and massacre of a town named Guernica in Northern Spain. This was done by Fascists during the Spanish Civil War. The bombing was ordered by Francisco Franco to quash the resistance in that region and to gain control over it. The bombing mission was meant to destroy military targets but it ended in tragedy as many civilians were blown up and killed during the attack. If you can see, the figures in the painting are the townsfolk who were bombed- disfigured, mangled, mixed-up and distorted in the violence. I think it was nice addition to the scene in the sense that it gives a feeling of foreboding, an eerie retelling of the theme of government trying to control people during times of war and crisis. To use any means necessary to "keep the peace" and enforce its ideology, laws and policies on the population.

The fate of all mankind I see Is in the hands of fools. Confusion will be my epitaph. As I crawl a cracked and broken path If we make it we can all sit back And laugh.

Its April 9th, 2022 and there have been scientific backed, internet articles published about the presence of micoplastics in the human body. Scientists don't know what the long term affects are with microplastics being present in every part of our body but Im sure its NOT good.. 😳😬😥
I was listening to pink floyd, and thought of this scene. Besides the flying pig, I remembered the kid with the wrist controlled device. Anyway, even if women were infertile, cloning embryos would still be possible? Grim anyway.
The worldbuilding in this movie was and will always be impeccable.
I thought back then they could just keep making movies like this, boy was I wrong.
I just finished watching a vinesauce clip then watched this clip and saw your comment which made me laugh
The beauty is the contrast between the british clinical modern society, laced with the posh class system, juxtaposed against the absolute degradation of society. This one scene tells you 8% of all you need to know is going on. People, even inner city london people, are living in quarters close to slums, there is a tenuous middle class of professionals like Theo who live too close to that slum for comfort, and then there's the military creating a ring of steel around the elite along the parade. Even the utility of the "ark" is a joke. WHy preserve art if there will be no humans in 50 years time to enjoy it? It's just another bit of ego stroking and distraction.
@@joeking5679 It's interesting because the year after this we got There Will Be Blood, and the next year No Country For Old Men, which are two of the best films of the century imo(as is this one).
This is still one of my all time favorite movies. The music, to the dystopian/apocalyptic plot, to the cinematography, this movie is just fantastic.
The story was so moving
This movie is next-NEXT level....one of my top 5....so well done....
Five years to go! (It's set in 2027.)

1:40 "We couldn't save La Pieta, smashed up before we got there!" This is a world with no children, and the statue of a mother holding her dead son (Jesus) is bound to be broken out of anger for what is haooening in the story.
Good insight
God I hope that was intentional
Pretty sure there's a scene of a woman holding her dead son later in the film that's very similar to it too
Some person smashed the Pieta in the early 70s. Screamed "I am Jesus Christ"! Mental patient, I vaguely remember?
I guess the fact that he was able to salvage Guernica means there isn't much left of the U.N. anymore. I guess that's true even outside the movie.
having Guernica as the backdrop for a dining table
yes, along with brilliant filmography, casting and selection of this KC piece...a detail that counted towards the movie's perfection
Not to mention the Pink Floyd pig.
It’s most definitely apocryphal, but I love the story of when a Nazi soldier came into Picasso’s studio, saw it and asked him if he made it, and his response was “No, you did.” It’s too kitschy not to love

Holy Shit! I thought this was a joke comment. That you were just saying how "Floyd like" the scene looks and the iconic smoke stacks look like the Animals cover...BUT THERE ACTUALLY IS IN FACT A GIANT FLOATING FUCKING PIG!!! This is way better than playing the White Album backwards. Too cool! How the hell did you catch that?!?!? Edit: So I didn’t watch past about the 1 minute mark because I was only interested in the King Crimson song. But I watched it again and finally saw the whole thing. Duh. It’s still very cool.

This is an amazing film. I loved every minute. Pigs over Battersea Power Station. Homage to Pink Floyrd and the symbolisation of these people having the wealth and power.

@@johnmazzoni487 King Crimson the band playing
Oh be quiet dude. It's just a song man.
Incredible film. So underappreciated. Every scene is crafted to deliver
your accurate evaluation, concise... almost a haiku!
Emmanuel Lubezki cinematographer (3 Oscars), Alfonso Cuaron director (4 Oscars). This is an outstanding film that stays with you.
Love how every time I see this scene I notice little details. This time it's the Banksy at 1:05. The juxtaposition of the cops kissing next to the armed guard is too good.
That's extremely subtle (edit: and agreed it's clever). I've only watched this half a dozen times, the details aren't jumping out to me yet.
My fan theory is that Alex was in prison or involved with gang activity hence the street/prison tattoos on his hand and neck. He has a deep scare on his face which to me resembles a bullet wound, perhaps he was a spoiled powerful rich kid with no real direction or purpose in life and took pleasure in criminal life and violent behavior. Since his dad is so powerful he usually always gets out of legal trouble somehow. Maybe he eventually got shot in the face and became mentally or physically disabled from it. Now he lives a life of house arrest and probation, maybe apart of his sentencing is to have a mandatory prescription to a mood balancer kinda like future riddaline but with no FDA oversight. No he lives docile life heavily medicated to suppress his violent behavior as hence why Nigile easily freaked out when his son wasn’t complying to his mandatory meds.
Riddalin? You mean risperidone? Your theory does make sense though and definitely fits in with the dark themes.
Yeah, he’s based on Chet Hanks.
I always wondered why Alex looked like that or what he’s was doing but definitely this makes perfect sense!
Yeah he likely ran with all the other angry youth. Only his position meant he wasn't going to be treated as badly as them.
So he is Alex DeLarge (Whose name was probably taken for the character), but rich and with caring parents.
The way things are going at the moment, coming to a future near you very soon.

"You've got something in your teeth."
Theo's negging in this film is really intelligently wrought. Watch thru and pay attention to the several times he says harmless little things that all the same totally undermine the posture of the character hes talking to. It's very telling about his character. He gets thru (almost) the entire film without physically harming anyone. Hes not an action hero, hes no warrior. Hes a rogue. Skates through the entire film by the tip of his tongue and stealth.
"Jeez, your breath stinks."
@@lazyatthedisco It was Charlie Hunnam by the way, i didn't see Green Street Hooligans at that time.
That's a great take on it, never thought about it like that.. Totally accurate
Amazing assessment
This is one of the most effective song choices for a scene in film history
that leap through chaos to elegance was perfect. outside, people were out-louding that infertility is punishment of the god. but inside, everything was such on a daily basis for the wealthy ones, as if there is nothing wrong with the world. every social disaster concern poor ones rather than high society. and social-economic circumstances create huge differences on aspects for life. fantastic. so much actuality through futuristic perspective.
I feel that in that scene the rich we're living the last days with all the flamboyance and excess they could, daily parades in full dress uniform, frolicking in the park with exotic pets, etc.
Just like now! LOL. . . . . .
This scene by itself could have been the basis for an entire film showing the end of civilization and how the wealthiest of the world would remain in denial, lest their extreme comfort be interrupted. In fact, there are many stories which combine these elements already. Check the Old Testament of the christian bible, where the only equalizing force that can affect the wealthy and powerful is a reticent god who appears only sporadically. That's how we know he is fiction, created to assuage the fears of destitution for the masses.
I love the use of contrast in this scene or scenes... we see the common people... all crowded together in a state of distress. Then Clive Owen is driven out to the country, where it's isolated. Then into this guys mansion... nothing but space... any food or drink he wants... plunder. Really shows how one person with power and money lives like an alien compared with the masses.
Nice analysis, but it's worth pointing out that the 'mansion' in this scene is actually supposed to be the 'Ark of Arts', a refurbished (and digitally enhanced) Battersea Power Station - still very much within London, and only two or three miles from the street that we first see Theo being driven down. You get the impression that we're moving out into the country just because the route goes past some of London's large parks. At the time of filming, Battersea Power Station was just a shell, having been decommissioned and left to rot for decades - but that whole area has now been redeveloped and the restored Power Station will be host to a campus, shops, events venue and roof gardens.
It's meant to be within a few km's of the masses you just saw. You saw that military blockade? That's them separating the elite from the plebs. Theo is meant to work for some government ministry, likely getting the job due to his connections. Heh as relatives inside the elite world, but he lives with everyone else, albeit a bit better than most.
From a truly visionary director. I love the relationship of the sounds with the KC track, the tuctuc exhaust mimics the tom toms on the drum kit, the screech of the car tyres as he arrives fits with the track, the band on the mall, .... its brilliant

RIP Ian McDonald, ("Military band of the british army", "Giles, Giles and Fripp", "King Crimson", "In the court of the crimson king", 1969 etc.), alto sax player and "Foreigner" co-founder (75) ;-( Ian also performed as a session saxist on "T. Rex"’s classic 1971 album, "Electric warrior" and later reunited with part of the original Crimson lineup as a member of the "21st century schizoid cand", his final major project was the rootsy rock band "Honey West", King Crimson did also two "John Peel sessions" (65, d. 2004) in 1969, King Crimson was sampled by many alternative bands, but also hip hop artists, f.i. by Kanye West, Phat Kat, Pharaoe Monch, Gang Starr, Sagopa Kajmer, The Hive, Moving Strings and Crimson Jazz Trio etc. !
@IntrepidTit One of the very best. He was critically important to the first incarnation of KC, and was instrumental in setting the tone that the band would carry forward for the next 52+ years.

Did anyone notice the Picasso painting on the wall. That painting depicts the bombing and massacre of a town named Guernica in Northern Spain. This was done by Fascists during the Spanish Civil War. The bombing was ordered by Francisco Franco to quash the resistance in that region and to gain control over it. The bombing mission was meant to destroy military targets but it ended in tragedy as many civilians were blown up and killed during the attack. If you can see, the figures in the painting are the townsfolk who were bombed- disfigured, mangled, mixed-up and distorted in the violence. I think it was nice addition to the scene in the sense that it gives a feeling of foreboding, an eerie retelling of the theme of government trying to control people during times of war and crisis. To use any means necessary to "keep the peace" and enforce its ideology, laws and policies on the population.

@@NiekKuijpers You are literally an idiot. You think ISLAM is responsible for the collapse of an already collapsing West? This has been a LONG time coming, FAR predating the refugee crisis. Capitalism has been consuming itself for over a century, and we're approaching a point where Capitalism can no longer adapt to its own over consumption. And you think this is bad? Climate change is set to cause the greatest refugee crisis this world has ever seen, with 150 MILLION climate refugees expected by 2050. You think Islam caused that too?

I can’t be the only one that would pay to see a prequel with Nigel and a SAS detail trying to get the Pieta
You know, there are hundreds of references to more mainstream, blockbuster, sci-fi fare like Inception, and Children of Men is still far far superior in tackling it's subject matter. It's the end of the world in slow motion. It's all of humanity dying from cancer all at once. It's the Radiohead of thought-provoking sci-fi.
The short-lived series "Y: The Last Man" was only just starting to show the world's degeneration due to phenomena causing the slow end of humanity

I think they could have easily fit in Epitaph in the movie as well. The wall on which the prophets wrote Is cracking at the seams. Upon the instruments of death The sunlight brightly gleams. When every man is torn apart With nightmares and with dreams, Will no one lay the laurel wreath As silence drowns the screams. Between the iron gates of fate, The seeds of time were sown, And watered by the deeds of those Who know and who are known; Knowledge is a deadly friend When no one sets the rules. The fate of all mankind I see Is in the hands of fools. Confusion will be my epitaph. As I crawl a cracked and broken path If we make it we can all sit back And laugh. But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying, Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

One of my fav scenes
A very significant film in the field of dystopia and the genre of science fiction that shows a demonstration of the power of the rich and privileged living in the intoxication of great food of wine and amazing music in this case King Crimson where Brian Eno also performed and the music is great and underscores the subverted and dysfunctional world of the reign of terror and insecurity, as already shown by Fritz Lang Film Metropolis or Blade Runner of 1982, which also belong to this genre and also the meaning show scum and human scum in coexistence with each other
