JOHN HUSTON & POPS ON LABOR THEORY OF VALUE

[Lildemon179]

I need a huge favor from a kind person right now!! I'm studying economics and it's required I watch and analyze this for an assignment. But they're simply speaking too quickly for me to fully comprehend it. Can someone, possibly, write out for me just what they're saying?!? MESSAGE ME PLEASE!!! THANKS A BUNCH!!! X(

[mmclees]

No other way? How about, "What is this particular person willing to give me in exchange for my gold?" He, quite frankly, doesn't care how many hours you worked, or how many people worked and came up empty handed. He only cares about his personal preferences; whether he prefers to have some amount of dollars or some amount of gold, at a particular time. That's how it works in reality.

[ekeyra]

Too bad he's completely wrong about everything his old ass is rambling about

[mrjoepad1]

The man Walter Huston is speaking to is actually Jack Holt, the father of Tim Holt (Curtin).

[juanbosco31]

I miss you  Huston

[songsterman]

B. Traven, the mysterious author of 'Treasure of the Sierra Madre', is said by biographers (Raskin and Pateman) to appear very briefly in this scene - either as the guy in hat sitting to the right of Walter Huston or, more likely, the guy sitting opposite Huston.

Happy birthday Mr. Huston, and thank you.

[mouseman71]

Obama should take this guy's advice.

[stewajf]

The title should be "John Huston & Pops On Labor Theory of VALUE," not "Capital." This is a statement of Marx's and Ricardo's Labor Theory of Value.

[mouseman71]

I always think of Ricky Ricardo. Are they related?

[icefox98]

yeah - that's what i meant. that's not john huston. SO YOU FAIL.

[schlml]

You can tell Daniel Day Lewis studied this movie for There Will Be Blood

[icefox98]

uh, wrong.

[Flyinhawaiian89]

Actually, he studied John Huston quite a bit for his role, so it's possible. So, you fail.

[Dgrey395]

Uh yeah. Lewis studied The Treasures of the Sierra Madre for a year to get the Huston accent down.

[miyayo]

They say he based Plainview's voice on JOHN Huston, who only appears in this movie for about five seconds. The guy in this scene is WALTER Huston, John's dad. There isn't enough good John Huston voice work in this film for DDL to have studied.

[castraregina]

John Huston, great actor..period

[laurensadriaanse]

thats walter huston his father
