This was fucking brilliant! Right on with Baldwin's voice tones and details on the body language for the rest of the casts reactions. Original skit at the end was good too ha.
Totally awesome! Loved it! !! (But it would be ok if you changed hair/glasses/costume for each character, to differentiate more and keep the fast continuity going and help me follow it more easily.)
Haha I wanna go out drinking with this guy. I use lines from this monologue all the time. "I drank five beers in two minutes, how many did you drink? You see, pal, that's who I am and you're NOTHING"
not going to lie, usually i find these things really cheesy and frankly, funny for all the wrong reasons. but this, this is fantastic. you're truly talented!
I'll be honest with you, at first I said another son of a bitch doing crap ........ I clicked with the intention to change video and nothing ...... and started to watch your video from beginning to end ....... and guess what? you are fucking good! excellent, brilliant. my respects
Did you know that this scene was not in the original play GGGR? It was added to the script of the movie I suppose to make the film more attention grabbing. There are in fact more subtle scenes which, in my opinion, convey the essential message of the film ; an uncompromising indictment of 'savage capitalism' and the lack of ethics inherent in the sales business. Great rendition of the scene thanks for posting:)!!!!!!
My all time fav from that film. We used to re-enact this one at work,because I really used to BE a salesman in real estate.Good timing on the lines man. "Get the picture?"
i love how people are picking out the most specific aspects like one word he didn't say or the fact he left the door open lol.... testament to how much he fucking killed it
I'm not gonna lie. I cracked up when he held up the steak knives. How does he keep such a straight face saying that holding up those knives? I gotta say, he did a great job, but I think these videos would be infinitely more hilarious if he always just had a set of silly props to use with complete seriousness.
This guy is a really good actor and I hope he makes it! I also respect the fact that he is honoring this incredible scene from one of the best films ever!
man ,you are WONDERFUL. I think this movie is the best in all the history of the cinema, and Baldwin deserves an Oscar for the speech. And you , deserve
an opportunity in HOLLYWOOD . DON'T WASTE your time ... RIGHT NOW ...
go to HOLLYWOOD , the brothers COEN or Woody Allen will SURELY give you
Excellent! I look forward to your eventual career in theater/film/SNL/other form of performance: you do a much better job than most people that are professionally in the field. Superbly executed, spot-on impressions, amazing attention to detail down to Ed Harris's nervous twitchy smile and Baldwin's fleeting grin at the end of "have you made your decision for Christ?"
O.. M .. FFF G - you know... this is only my 2nd viewing of this guy's stuff (just watched Goodfellas).... but MAN, this dude's game is TIGHT! He is NAILING this shit! And oh.... 2:20 when he holds up those knives?? LMFAO!!!!!!! Loose ones straight outta his kitchen drawer = EPIC WIN!!
Very good man. Obviously you put some thought into this and delivered a solid performance. I like your voice and like others pointed out you got good pacing and the nuances of the scene.
One of my favourite scenes too. Mamet is genious and Baldwin's performance is like a punch in the stomach.What an ensemble and what a script, especially for Lemmon who once again could prove what a terriffic character actor he is. He blew me away in Missing and I'd have loved to watch him play Willy Loman!
Totally sceptical when I saw this piece. Surely this guy cant put across the correct physical presence or vicious gravitas so marvelously conveyed by Baldwin in his shortest and finest role. How wrong was I! You even capture Baldwins breathiness and some of his other vocalisms (and those of the other characters). What youve done with this scene really warms my heart; youve made a lot of people smile. Brilliant! Ignore the pointlessly insulting comments made by some contributors here.
the only thing missing from the dialog is "if you're not Closing - you're losing" or "you are either a closer or a loser" ..great job on a classic piece..
@Dukeboy187 Hate to say it.. but I agree.. I could pick apart the production ...but this guy WAY over came that. Well Done Artie. But the pink Kitchen sucks.. LOL..
I am OCD when it comes to this movie, can probably recite it line for line, certainly this scene. the mistakes u made were so inconsequential that only the most anal person would quibble at them. and you captured the spirit of the scene perfectly! and this, coming from a guy that thinks they should never perform the play again because Levene died with Lemmon. GGR my favorite movie all time! Great fucking job! also, the reaction shots were spot on. i am black, so i could only play the cop.
Hey, not bad. I thought to myself as I reluctantly clicked on the still, "This is gonna really suck." But you're pretty good. You've got Baldwin's voice down: the accent, the pacing. Tone and timbre aren't the same as Baldwin's, but not much you can do about that. Editing and camera angle are also good. 8/10.
It's amazing what one guy can do behind the closed curtains' of your neighbors house. Awesome dude!!!
