Gregory Peck vs. Laurence Olivier in THE BOYS FROM BRAZIL

[915buck]

For all you would-be actors out there..... notice how in character the wonderful Mr. Peck is!!! This comes from doing something along time and being one of the very best at it!!! Oh how I miss the grace of this talent.....but then there are his films......r

[TheTruthAlchemist]

Mike Tyson 1:58

[yogafan6500]

Imagine if there ever going to be a remake of The Boys from Brazil i can think of Liam Neeson as Herr Liberman & Ralph Fiennes as Dr. Joseph Mengele. Now that's what i called a possible dream casting of 2 talents in one thriller. Just like those 2 late greats Gregory Peck & Lawrence Olivier in the 1978 classic movie.

[ebuz218]

DAMN!! JUST THE VERY IDEA OF HITLER MAKING A COMEBACK DROVE THIS JEWISH GUY BATSHIT AND HE LET A PACK OF MAD BLOODTHIRSTY DOBERMANS INTO THE ROOM WITH HIM...AS IF THINGS WERE'NT BAD ENOUGH ALREADY

[ebuz218]

HEY NAZI DUDE, DO'NT CANNIBALIZE OLIVIER'S EAR MAN, THAT AI'NT RIGHT!

[MrMrvannuys]

This Is The House My DAD Was Raised In ! BIILERICA, Ma..

[TheEnemyIsIgnorance]

Mega-powerhouse performance from Peck - simply flawless. And in one of the greatest movie climaxes

[s123rew]

so did olivier in the marathon man is it safe?

[TheChanning62]

1. gregory peck and 2. Lawrence olivier r my favorite actors of all time..

[mmmbad]

Awesome actors!

[yongadog]

Now, I know Gregory Peck (and everyone else) says that Atticus Finch was his best role. But this is my favorite Gregory Peck role, along with his portrayal of Cap'n Ahab in "Moby Dick". I love it when the Peckster goes to the Dark Side.

[Kelly14UK]

@yongadog Lol! Wonder why Eastwood never really played villians cos Peck and Fonda did.

[YungReg88]

"That's it! I will come back there and so help me god, I will hit you with my ring hand!"

Lmao. Classic.

[KellyGreen5555]

Any way to post the ending? Thanks!

[Shagrat65]

Man Olivier and Peck are just amazing in this scene. The mixture of fear and hatred on Olivier's face is incredible as is the delivery of 'Lieberman !' by Peck. God I love this film

[GetToZahChopper2]

dogs hate gregory Peck !

[erniehead]

Dogs love the taste of Nazis.

KEEL! KEEL!!

[Terlaudo]

you know gregory peck is an awesome actor, because he was atticus finch...and now this!

[oki9Sedo]

Great scene!

The most fake looking ear bite ever at 2:00!

[AnalFrank1]

LOVELY scene!

[IggyHazard]

Only a true soldier of Zion would keep fighting to the death after being shot multiple times. The wrist is a horrible place to get shot. All those complex bones. Notice how this particular boy is both an artist (photographer, specifically) AND has a fascination with dogs.

It's great seeing a Nazi get dogged to death.

}:-D

[paladin712]

Is Laurence Oliver's character based on Simon Weisenthal?

[TheMgallacher]

@paladin712 Yeah, It Is. According To Wikipedia Olivier Met Weisenthal And Asked Him For Advice On The Character.

[LeighMet]

@paladin712 Yes he even talked to Weisenthal before making the film

[JuanMacready]

Fucking awful movie with Peck's worst ever performance.

[lucashatesyou]

kinda love the fact the Steve Guttenberg is the reporter in the beginning of the film. If we're luckily, maybe they'll ask him to be Mengele in the remake (dare, i dream such evil)

[lucashatesyou]

i love that steve gutenberg was the reporter in beginning of the movie. maybe he'll be gregory peck in the remark (dare i dream such evil.)

[QuantumFart2]

He shot the dog! Bastard! Now he really must die!

[sargoth37]

Great movie, so many great linesw like "you my dear are not going annnnywhere"

[VictorLepanto]

I suspect that they are making a new version of this movie. I was asking about the novel this was based on, it wasn't in but a new issue was coming out.

I am amazed by what a cameleon Olivier was. Here he is so completely different from the Nazi war criminal he played in Marathon Man.

[jimwg1]

This is true realistic horror beyond anything a CGI space alien can muster. Unfortunately we've wired-up SPX-fed generations growing up who wouldn't recognize true horror or realism if it bit them in the ass.

[SIngli6]

I do not like this film... but I love the last twenty minutes or so of it!

Note: So far, the only excellent Ira Levin film adaptations have been 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'The Stepford Wives (1975)'.

[Hendrikdevuile]

A terrific movie! Mengele/Peck like Nazism itself is logical but mad, but his scheme , even more plausible since the film was made, might well have worked, . However, after choosing one of the clones as a new Führer, what would the Nazis have done with the rest? Put them together in a think tank, or bump them off as possible dangerous rivals? And why didn't Liebermann/Olivier notice immediately the resemblance of the boys to Adolf from old photos? Dolly the Sheep looked just like her "mum".

[gotch09]

Gregory Peck was/is one of my all time favorite actors.

[5tonyvvvv]

insane movie,,cool scene

[mindstormsabrewin]

The movies from the 70s were the best. Very high concept. Very cynical. Very intelligent. Dark times make for very interesting artistic expression.

[5tonyvvvv]

@mindstormsabrewin very true..movies today dont have the realistic feel..its all computers today

[VictorLepanto]

This the most incredible fight scene in movie history. It all the more shocking for there being no pretense of super human power of the antagonists. It is rather comic book in some ways though. The Peck (Mengele type) character is rather absurd when he starts monologuing, like megalomaniacal comic book super villain. I love the Olivier character though. He is amazing how he plays the Wiesenthal type character here, & played a Nazi war criminal in Marathon Man. Hated Marathon Man though.

[PsychoBisket]

how come in this film they were killing all the parents of the clones? why was that..

[triggerhappyhamish]

@PsychoBisket Dont take my word for it, but i think its because Hitler is dad died when he was the same age as these clones were, so they wanted to recreate it.

But i aint seen it in ages. Sorry if im wrong dude

[elperromagico]

@triggerhappyhamish Spot on. 

[triggerhappyhamish]

@PsychoBisket I think its cause Hitler is real dad died when he was the same age these clones are now. so theyre trying to recreate it for the clones, i think.

[Hendrikdevuile]

@PsychoBisket The aim was to provide, as far as possible, an identical environment to that of Hitler's youth to support the characteristics inherited genetically by cloning: nature + nurture. Not "the parents", only the middle-aged fathers were killed. Note, however, the obvious grief and the tears of Bobby on finding his father dead. The boy is not a monster, and Liebermann is morally right when by burning the list of names he prevents the clones from being exterminated .

[stitchgrl777]

LEGENDS.

[Entertainmentwriter]

Two of the greatest actors ever, at the top of their games in this movie. Like DeNiro and Pacino in Heat.

[Elcore]

Bruno Ganz (who later went on to famously play Hitler in Untergang) also shows up in this film, as the creepy scientist with a hard-on for cloning Mozart.

[smout863]

thanks for telling me eoinc8 how do you know did you ask them lol

[smout863]

good film that if you like rotties lovely dogs

[EOINC8]

there dobermen

[Ritch40]

I agree. Hitler was the product of some many variable factors. He supposedly was an outgoing boy and a good student until his little brother died of measles. Then he became sullen and winthdrawn and rebellious. I like the next part of the scene best, when the americanized Hitler clone bobby turns on Mengele and sicks the dogs on him and yells "you freaked out maniac!"

[mikemoair]

man that bobby wheelock must be lazy huh he should be ruling the world by now

[MissInconcdite]

Even if Hitler was cloned, it would just be body tissue. I don't believe they would actually have a mind, proved from one of the clones created.

[genungapearl]

Even if Hitler were cloned (and I don't believe he was) it probably would not create the Hitler we know. Perhaps he would share some personality traits, but in order to make an identical person, you need to make identical experiences. And you can't. You may find a similar adoptive family,but you can't duplicate the original, and you ESPECIALLY can't duplicate the times. Even if he had a similar family, Hitler II would also be a product of society.

[shortbusdriver]

@genungapearl i agree with this 100%, also have to factor in environmental things affecting rna (epigenetics) which was rather recently clinically documented :) not only would the emotional/logical experiences recreated, but the exact environment as well

cheers :)

[Palatard]

@genungapearl

Well, if they really made a Hitler II, he'd be WAY to busy trying to beat his "Doodle Jump" score on his iPod to ever have time to exterminate races...

[Terra148]

"No, he's in the kitchen, mixing us some cocktails"

Good line.

[webartist300]

You idiots! The Russians have Hitler's skull fragments. In the near future you might see and hear a poitician that reminds you of someone. This man will draw you into his world of emotionality and persuasiveness. He will hypnotize you into feeling hatred. I almost lost all of my British family due Hitler in WW2, if they mass clone this man, who knows what they might end up with... Hitlers all over the place?

[DerPanzerLeader]

no no no. Hitler was a good man and the skull fragments are of a woman of an age of mid 30s to 40. maybe it was Evas. Your wrong, wrong, wrong end of

Heil Hitler

[webartist300]

Ok... you have a point, the skull fragments could be from someone elses. But wouldn't YOU want to see a cloned Hitler? Just to say to him and go over 'the good old days'?

[thefriendsociety]

not too much the rapid speed in development of nanotechnology. The sleeper cells of certain scientific groups without ethics or morals.

[fifaajax]

mmm, Anthony Hopkins for the role of Dr. Jozsef Mengele and the role of Her Lieberman will be:? Donald Sutherland?Dustin Hoffman?

[spagandtuna]

This is an unbelievably campy, at times unintentionally (?) funny piece of shit that wastes a cast of acting luminaries (Guttenberg and Meara are also present) whose presence is baffling, absolutely baffling. Towards the end, Sir Lawrence is sitting on the couch looking incredulous, perhaps wondering how he aloud himself to be drawn into this shit. Oh, to be fair, the primer on cloning was good, but that's what documentaries are for. Seeking only well-conceived comments please, if at all.

[yogafan6500]

" A Hitler tailor made for the 1980's ,90's, 2000." Joseph Mengele. Played with deadly seriousness by Gregory Peck in The Boys from Brazil.

[jaboipell]

the....best...movie....ever!!!­!

[UFOSPACE1999]

Better than Gone with the Wind? Better than Jaws? Better than E.T.? Better than Wizard of Oz? Better than Citizen Kane? U fucking stupid.

[WinchesterRanger]

And judging by the foul language, u British.

Seriously, do any of you people ever rise above the level of pond scum.

[UFOSPACE1999]

Speaking of Pond Scum, how's that mommy cunt of urs???

[spagandtuna]

@UFOSPACE1999

What is a mommy cunt?

[Palatard]

@UFOSPACE1999

A tad better than Wizard of Oz.

[spagandtuna]

@jaboipell

Only possible explanations for this comment: (1) You were a member of the crew and regularly serviced Sir Lawrence. (2) This is the only movie you have ever seen.

[1111BLAKE1111]

hahahahah

[pipilotta12345]

i am proud of my grandmother ,she hided american and english ,canadian soldiers in her farm at ww2!

[tipsss]

in real life Peck would've wrecked Olivier

[iheartporno69]

I remember looking in my grandmas scrap book and I found photos of her kids in Brazil in school outfits with nazi flags in there hands..that was no later then the 67.

[jum1801]

IIRC BFB was a bomb since the plot was considered outlandish. Critics and fans were embarrassed for the stars. But now that cloning is almost reality the movie deserves more play IMO.

Two other films which deal with Nazis who escaped: "Marathon Man" from 1976, with Dustin Hoffman and (again!) Olivier. And the very good "The Odessa File" from 1974, with Jon Voight and Max Schell.

In the 1970's the wartime Nazis were just in their 50's to 70's, so they could have organized. And some did.

[Swazi54]

"The Odessa File" was actually written by Fredrich Forsyth and led to the capture of the Concentration camp leader in the book. There was so much truth in that book that it poured over into reality.

[fiestamonet]

@Swazi54 , I'm sorry but "Odessa" was just a novel and there was nothing truth in that book Roschmann existed, yes, but he was quite different in reall life .He never killed a german offcier, etc.

they were looking for the guy before the film, and maybe they find him because of his personal life's details (like remarring without being divorced).

[cobrafarmer]

1:14 "Herr Liebermann." Wonderful villainy!

[krillin876]

this acting cannot be duplicated

[smout863]

great scene i love dobermans

[richiebear1969]

You must have liked The Omen then

[chuckie41c]

This movie is a parody of itself and it went over the heads of the critics

[JRRDPR]

No way anybody else would have been a better cast than Laurence and Gregory.And this movie wouldn't come off this good today!!

[yogafan6500]

Seeing Gregory Peck & Lawrence Olivier fighting in The Boys from Brazil. Absolutely memorable.

[jeffair5]

It's strange that Mengele was still alive when they killed him in this movie!!!!!!!!!!

[bandibreath]

Wishful thinking on the part of the writers. They wanted to get Mengele very badly. Someone like Mengele deserved the ending that he recieved in this film. The real Mengele I believe died of natural causes.

[jeffair5]

Yeah,he drowned in South America

[oliverecords]

04:50 very impressive. I don't know how good I would have stood this!

[DrinkWater22]

Larry: Good dogs!

[TigergirlTG]

"NNNNOOO hes in the kitchen mixing us some cocktails!" LOL

[TheMonolith75]

LOL!! That's my favorite line in the movie too!!!

[wreehill]

@TigergirlTG HITLER HAD THE RIGHT IDEA

[LeighMet]

@wreehill go to hell

[FilmClassic]

Can you post the scene when the kid comes home and then commands the dogs to attack him?

------------------------------­-----

I have uploaded that scene because that was a favourite scene of mine too. Click my name to view the seven-minute segment :-)

[mgallachermgallacher]

Great Acting From

Gregory Peck & Sir Laurence Olivier.

[JRRDPR]

The though of Hitler reliving his youth is Terrifying and the movie is Superbly portraits this.Thank you.,wish there was the whole of it!!

[richiemonsterking7]

and then movies would kick ass again unlike now

[krillin876]

J R is child, you should call names, no matter how wrong he is

[lozo47]

john rogerley you are just a cunt and a bastard

[lozo47]

you are just a brainded cunt

[heistsy]

when I saw "Gregory Peck vs. Laurence Olivier" in the title I didn't think it would be quite so literal

[krillin876]

Cut... action!!

[goldsamurai]

and I thought the boy was a really young Alec Baldwin

[FilmTraum12]

It's really a great movie!

[mlivre3]

This is one of the last films that Jerry Goldsmith and director Franklin J. Schaffner would collaborate on.

[distortdpsyche]

man, that guy went mike tyson on the older dude!

[laurieheartsdcx]

a pair of the finest actors of all time. good job.

[DarkPascual]

Never saw the movie, but I really enjoyed the book...

[MostHauntedCharmedG]

"No, he's in the kitchen mixing us some cocktails!" I stopped taking that part serious after that. It's so weird seeing Atticus Fitch go all evil nazi man. But still I love this movie

[cdishmo]

It amazing; I saw this movie when it came out about 30 yrs ago and Gregory Peck mentions cloning.

[JohnRogersly]

Nope.

[JohnRogersly]

Nope, Sir Alec Guinness was a thousand times better than the talentless one-note Peck. Anyway, don't you mean Laurence Olivier?

[JohnRogersly]

Let me guess - you only saw Sir Alec in the Star Wars movies, right?

[JohnRogersly]

Nah - if you go around posting stupid messages about Sir Alec then you will be challenged.

[themetalgod21]

alec guinness what a bum,the force shall be with you,always

[JohnRogersly]

Try watching something other than the Star Wars crap.

[goldyn12345]

this is one of my all time favourites,olivier and peck are brilliant in this and the whole scene with the dogs is amazing.this is much better than marathon man

[rydemi]

Marathon man was good but this had a better story in my opinion. Marathon Man you had to piece the pieces together after it was finished for yourself this explained everything.

[aboonski]

When ever I see that clown-face Lieberman on CNN, MSNBC, FOX or Headline News, I always think about the part in this video clip where Gregory Peck says, "Hier LIEberman!!!"

[popmum19]

Well, Greg, if you were looking for a role that was 180 degrees from Atticus Finch, good job bud!!!

[JRRDPR]

That boy was like Hitler came back to life.He's face is so chillingly takes after that son of a bitch.The whole movie was artistic!!Thank you!

[beeblack2]

them dog fuck that gregory up yo,them DMX,S DOG HA HA!!!

[AlbertTransom]

hell yeah

[TheMonolith75]

You are wrong fool!! LMAO!!

[GDHouston]

Yes excellent line JR

[JeeRant]

"No, he's in the kitchen, fixing us some cocktails!"

Best line EVER.

[kljmaq]

yeah! i always loved that great line, and the whole scene! gregory peck and laurence oliver were brilliant in the movie.

[5678simon]

@JeeRant THAT IS THE BEST LINE

[romagman]

what a ending, what a powerful ending !

[WhiteBoyBob1]

1.14 "YOU"

[goldyn12345]

this is a great scene,two truly great actors.

[mskilj]

Why in every movie does the bad guy have to reveal his evil plan in full detail to his arch enemy right before he kills him? He doesnt need to but yet he insists.

[vos360]

Hubris

[arygirolamo]

Brazil will take over the world with this kidos!

[dumbestuserever]

Can you post the scene when the kid comes home and then commands the dogs to attack him?

[Ulysses61]

Are you serious they are going to remake this? No one can replace Peck!

[meeltjuh]

I wonder hy they changed liebermanns name from yakov to ezra.. and they changed this scene

mengele was supposed to pretend he's wheelock

[Andre2010]

one can imagine the shock at the time to see gregory peck playing mengele

[asy4]

Great blend of history and sci-fi. Remake, huh? I wonder who will be in the Gregory Peck role? Tough shoes to fill!

[yogafan6500]

Hows about either Tommy Lee Jones or Michael Douglas as Mengle & either Liam Neeson or Ralph Fiennes as Herr Liberman. that would be just cool.

[hanniballecter3]

"The right Hitler for the right future. A Hitler tailor-made for the 1980s, 90s, 2000!"

I love Gregory Peck in this.

[Yellow2004Mustang]

Remake 2009

[sourtrez]

I'm f*cking tired og remakes. There is no need for it!!

[Behrzad]

can some1 tell me wats up with that neclace thinggy at the end of the film?

[smichelle65]

It's a bracelet made of human molars that Hitler supposedly kept as a souvenier, and now Bobby (Hitler clone)is keeping as a souvenier.

[joserijo1990]

You freaked out maniac!!!!

Post that clip if you got it.

[KaffirWarrior1948]

Wow! I'm going to the pound to day and getting a couple dozen Dobermans.

[KaffirWarrior1948]

That Nazi fights like a little-bitch and sounds like one too.

[asy4]

True of most Nazis! And neo-Nazis, and white supremacists, and radical kooks of all isms and ilks who are overcompensating for their own pathetic inadequacies.

[moonflower0924]

i love this movie!

[CesMan83]

Dinner time for the dobermans! Yeah, chomp that Nazi scumbag to pieces!

[goldyn123]

wicked film,olivier was one of the greatest actors of all time.i love how the dobermans tear mengele to pieces

[eddiesteele]

May this be a lesson to all drama students..two of the greats. RIP Greg and Larry.

[LosAngeleno1959]

"Greg and Larry"? You sound like they were your old beer drinkin buddies! LOL

[crazybusdriver32]

Peck was the MAN

[thewolf32]

Great
