Patrick Wilson and Ellen Page - Hard Candy Interview

[WC2hands]

Who ever dislikes the movie is a fucking hater this movie was fucking great!!!!!!!

[magicdanachi]

why are there 2 dislikes?

[llamasarus1]

she would've seemed more demented if she acted less emotional in the movie.

[auriciangelescu]

This was the absolute worst movie I've seen in a long time, starting with the poor filmmaking, cheap lines and overdone acting to the despicable message it sends, that it's OK to take the law in your own hands.

[OwnageEngine]

@auriciangelescu You really didnt understand the point of the movie if you think that was the message.

[roflcunnt]

I dont give a shit if he is a pedo in this film, I would have jumped his bones.

[TyFly312]

@Killuminati911 I'm 100% against Pedophilia but i know teenage girls from broken homes who just accept it as a lifestyle and actually seek out older men because they know that an older man means more money for weed, cloths, alcohol, etc. because older men usually have better jobs than a teenage boy their age. It's very wrong but I know grown men who don't care and also teenage girls who also feel the same.

[Killuminati911]

I wish all girl would be like that in real life fuck pedofiles

[auriciangelescu]

@Killuminati91: yeah, because it's Ok to take justice in your own hands, torture is OK in some cases and not everyone has the right to a fair trial. If the movie had been about a pedophile torturing a minor, it wouldn't even hit the screens, but the opposite is just OK.

[Killuminati911]

@auriciangelescu I dont believe pedofiles deserve justice. But your wrong look at : The Girl Next Door., An American Crime., Lolita., Little Children., The Hills Have Eyes even Donnie Darko

[auriciangelescu]

@Killuminati911: well, if pedophiles don't deserve justice, you're on a slippery slope, who knows to whom this may extend some day?

[Killuminati911]

@auriciangelescu they got to realize that they are predators hunting young and innocent who cant defend themselfs and if they lays hands on there prey they will hurting them forever they for sure dont show terrorist justice pedofiles should get the same treatment

[auriciangelescu]

@Killuminati911 I completely laid my case, and I understand yours. Although we don't agree, it's time to end the conversation. Have a nice day!

[Killuminati911]

@auriciangelescu I understand yours as well! Peace

[Missleanneiscool]

@auriciangelescu You have to realise that the opposite is okay because the general public, sorry if that doesn' include you, don't like pedophiles. So its okay to torture pedophiles. An eye for an eye, it may not be right but it appeals to our sense of justice and sticking it to the bad guy. And its just a movie.

[salsancheznumber1fan]

this was so sad!

[snoopy8me]

This movie is awesome. Ellen Page and Patrick Wilson are phenomenal.

[Near4815162342]

this film is truly outstanding in every way but it has to be one of the greatest acting performances i have ever seen

[Near4815162342]

this film is truly outstanding in every way

[aylielove]

I can't figure out what it was where the blood came from, in the scene where she is 'cutting of his balls'. :S

[awaylaughingonacam]

@aylielove

it's not blood - i think it was jelly.

because after hayley left to go to the roof or something, jeff came out and looked at the knife and it looked like jelly. and then he sighed like he was mad. hayley just faked the whole thing

[FantasticCorn]

lol i expected jeff to do that to hayley not hayley to do that to jeff

[extenebrislux]

I loved this movie!! The acting, the directing, the screenplay were all fantastic.

Patrick Wilson was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

[Max8Jizzy]

Freaking love Patrick Wilson.

[peterk5699]

I love Hard Candy and how much it messes with your mind. It was so well written and acted and what made it better was that the paedophile wasn't some creep but a good-looking, successful guy. It'shard to work out who's the bed person in this though - is it Jeff because he (possibly) slept with some underage kids or was it Hayley because she tortured him and made him commit suicide?

[Laura147HLY]

I don't like the movie....but the two actors were absolutely brilliant in it...

[Sarahmajig]

Patrick is hot. And Ellen is fantastic.

[tindallster]

this movie is REALLY good! Its nice to have a good actor normally seen as a 'hero' become a 'villian' and wow Ellen Page; shit shes good in this!

[tiemedown]

this movie was quite simply one of the best pieces of acting ive ever seen

[Vanzly]

I love the coloring in this movie. It seems warmer, brighter when theres a calmer moment between the two but colder and dimmer when they get frustrated or angry or what have you.

just check out 0:49 - 1:00

theres color changes like that throughout the whole movie and I just think that that was really cool

[screamer4charlotte]

don't get me wrong, but ellen seriously looks younger than she really is! but she's a great actress.

[funkyboy90000]

after watching this movie i think strangers shouldn't talk to little girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tegansararock007]

MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER! and ellen page was excellent in it as always! :)

[shaneanu]

This was a brilliant movie, very well written. Ellen was great but I absolutely loved Patrick in this. There's this mellow, good-guy look in his eyes that made the character much more complex. He's done a great job with a very difficult role!

[ConnorMickle]

this movie to me was jsut like an R rated version of home alone, still good though

[jackel2072]

the best way to sum up hard candy in simple terms is, what happens when little red riding hood decides to go after the big bad wolf instead of the other way around.

[123Qwerty321]

Nicely said.

[lordrah]

haha, that's an awesome way to put it especially cuz she has that red hoodie

[Rachelxo91]

In the movie I believed Ellen was the predator and Patrick was the Prey. Just the way she had the whole thing up. Very interesting movie. If u have the extra time watch it.

[atozinco]

AntiSocioMedia - this is pretty much my favorite movie too. I LOVE it. Love Ellen Page. Love the weird Blond Redhead song at the end of the movie, "Elephant Woman". I really appreciate how the movie didn't show much (sex/violence/blood), but implied a lot.

Patrick Wilson was also one of the leads in the Phantom of the Opera movie (he can really sing). I can't believe it's R18, there is hardly any actual violence in it, no actual knife-cutting shown, and no nudity or sexual content.

[funkyboy90000]

Well that's what gave the movie it's meaning , i mean hears a girl that coaxes a guy to commit suicide and then she leaves unnoticed like she wasn't even there and then that Elephant woman plays.........................­.............that was powerful

[coollmmann123]

Oh yeah i was at the world premier oh this movie, and got to meet Ellen Page when she was starting her career. GO SXSW

[AntiSocialMedia]

Hard Candy is by far my favorite movie. I think I've seen it around thirty times, and that says a lot. It is sad that not many people know it exists.

[funkyboy90000]

Beautifully put

[semicoreshipshopfan]

I think it also has a lot to do with your experiences and how you think. I completely understood every aspect of this movie the first time I saw it.

I was amazed that such a straight-forward honest movie came out sort of "exploiting" the typical male mentality and their constant chase for "younger girls."

The younger the better right, guys? NOT.

[leoniess15]

i didn't really like it. ellen page is being way to over dramatic for a 14 year old, i STILL don't know what's up with that girl donna, that asian woman didn't make any sense and i certainly don't get the plot. ok, he jumps. why? what kind of retard let's a 14 year old girl convince him to take his own life? anyway, sorry if i spoiled the movie for people who didn't see it yet.

[CelloPlaya08]

Well, yea it is one of those movies u have to see twice or maybe 3 times and u have to RELLY pay attention to completely get it. But to clear some things up for u..Donna was the girl that was missing and eventually got killed, the asian woman was a neighbor who saw Haley on the roof and he jumps at the end because he took part in Donna's murder and he didnt wanna go to prison. Makes sense?

[zacefr0n]

i saw dis movie twice in one day 2/17/09!!!

dis movie is sick!!!!

i love it!!

[jackel2072]

yeah i just watched the movie for the first time last night. i had to eminently re watch it after my first viewing. th movie is that good

[hgirl1986]

its not bad

[GlorieltheGlorious]

The viewer does not only get to see the monster in the man... but the man behind the monster. Paedophiles are repulsive, yet at the same time just as vulnerable as you and I.

In Hard Candy you get to see a "bad guy" show genuine fear, doubt, embarrassment... even kindness.

I think it's healthy to see films that challenge us like Hard Candy does, they help make our view of the world multi-dimensional.

See it :) It won't make you harbor any ill will towards Wilson, just admire him more.

[QwertyVersion2]

You should still watch it... I recommend it, it's quite an interesting movie.

[hannelee]

I've seen this movie, OMFG, watch it, it'S amazing.

[Someoneinwonderland]

gosh, i love ellen page.

[HYfilms]

ellen looks extremely young here. she was funny as a baldy in Mouth to Mouth. Thanks for posting this video!

[saranghaeyo2326]
