v for vendetta - evey's freedom

[yoyoyo119]

When she walks out into the rain on the balcony it always brings me to tears. She's seeing the world for the first time, and instead of all the fear she thought was real, she's seeing all the sadness.

[0nCh1ng]

If it's so brilliant then why're there only 47,000 views

[bdriz16]

BRRRRRILLLIAAAAAAANNNNNNNNTTTT­TT.

fucking brilliant.

[99Mrae]

The absence of fear makes us free, which is why governments use "Fear" and "Risk" to control us, to distract us from what is really going on under our noses!

[JGNSM58]

Evey just got PUNKED!!!!!

[Roboloved]

Im a boy and I cried with this film a lot. Because it's real, Egypt, Libia, Tunez, Marroc is living it. The government wants to put in our heads "you need me" but what we don't know is that we have the power, we the people who knows the truth and we will destroy anything or anyone denies. Government pretends to distract us with unions or coverts strikes. Trust yourself, kill your idols and face your fears.

[Ko252]

@Roboloved do you really think the us, china and uk isnt?

[Roboloved]

@Ko252 OF COURSE. I think that in this world, we have two types of freedom, one, is the freedom that lybians think they have, and the most lethal, our, our freedom (Spain, where I live or France) where you think you are free but you are a number, a costumer and a product that born, live and die. By the way, I think that the freedom of habitants in US or UK is more destroying, because they think they're free but they're not.

[heartandsoul1988]

@Roboloved Most people in the UK know there not free actually but just accept it as people think its the only way

i dunno about the rest of the world please dont comment on countries you dont live in.

[valenecre]

simplemente hermoso...

[7ano0osha]

This movie was portrayed in real life in Egypt, and i see Egypt's victory in this movie

[CookieMonsterOmNomOm]

Im in love with V. im in love with the movie. Im in love with the comic book. I LOVE V FOR VENDETTA. BEST THING EVEER

[Kriftonucci]

I don't see what Alan Moore was pissing off about, this scene is much more intense and humane here than it ever was in the comic.

[ReijiNakashi]

then u got no fear anymore... u completly free.

God such words made an impact on my life... the absence of fear makes u free, DAMN IT!!!

[SuperHarikiri]

2:27

[RaNdOmNeSs0121]

It's amazing that V's expression changes when the mask doesn't change expressions either.

[klinb821]

this soundtrack is just ... epic

[masterwilkes]

I CAN'T FEEL ANYTHING ANYMORE!

[Al3x919191]

One of the most intense movie scenes ever.This scene give me chills,it's unbelievable.I've no words.

[lllslinklll]

wtf is wrong with the aspect ratio?

[Soulflytribe04]

die DIlma Rousseff

[rubronegrope]

@Soulflytribe04 I sincerely hope you meant "Die every brazilian politican".

[samuraichamploo07]

v was really valerie under that mask

[InjectMorphineIntoMe]

God this is confusing. I guess I should watch the movie and not just random parts XD

[alberthadonlyone]

@InjectMorphineIntoMe

You should read the comic, it is a masterpiece.

[samuraichamploo07]

@alberthadonlyone i've read it,the movie is a masterpiece too but i should b a rule that u have to read the book first b4 watching the movie

[handymandan100]

@samuraichamploo07 I hope you don't mean the comic book? It's virtually unreadable... if I hadn't seen the film first I wouldn't have understood anything that was going on...

[theallseeingoracle]

@InjectMorphineIntoMe You should watch the movie in it's entirety, it's amazing. Deeply moving.

[stfuBUDDY]

if only all movies were like this one

[UkeRocket]

Powerful scene.

[MiyahSummer]

I remember watching this part and thinking about how much it would have been like the allegory of the cave in the sense of Plato.

[mariusbigb]

@MiyahSummer

You're right, and Evey DID accept reality and did not go back to her life in the cave.

[carlosroberto366]

Shes so cute when she says "I felt" and "I need air" oh my! *-* I wish i could embrace her in such a scene

[LoveAddictREmix]

1:35 MP5k and GREAT SCENE!

[praetorian2150]

2:38 lmao

[Harriet123P]

It's the same in 'Fight Club' where Tyler makes sure that none of the men fear death any more by driving into the opposite lane on the highway - that way they can be free and live their life up to its full potential.

[bistaboy]

If we all took a stand agaisnt the fear inflicted upon us by our government making us worry about Al-CIAda and other supposed terrorist, once we lose our fear they cant controll us anymore!

[slamajammin12]

well,the interragator and the other guy both had gloves and shadowed faces...thats a pretty good clue that it was him.but if a person were just watching that for the first time,i doubt one could connect the dots.

[jianghaolie]

Something puzzles me: Why is Vee's voice different when he acted as the interrogator and the prison guards? It's the same person isn't it?

In the graphic novel it was a casette tape tied to a fake figurine, but in the movie why could the "interrogater" stand?

Puzzles me...but good movie anyway! One of the greatest ever, the philosophy rocks, the action rocks, the symbolism rocks!

[devi2691]

@jianghaolie

its the same voice. Hugo Weaving's every character in that montage, he just puts the emphasis on different points of his voice. But it is all Vee.

[144fran]

@jianghaolie

This is one of the worst films ever made. It is an immoral film. The blowing up the Parliament is a highly undemocratic act. For the British Parliament is the mother democracy of modern democracies.

Also, the film compares the Conservative Party, Christianity, and G W Bush to Hitler's Nazi Party. That is quite unbelievable, and indicates a childish understanding of reality.

The film's message is for the far left, who are intellectually confused.

[jianghaolie]

@144fran There's a reason why people like you are labeled as conservative you know... Impediments to the development of human society and civilisation.

[144fran]

@jianghaolie

Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher, Benjamin Disraeli, Ronald Reagan, Dwight Eisenhower, Charles De Gaulle. Impediments to civilization? LOL!!!!!!!!!

Then take Karl Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, etc. The grand revolutionaries. The change makers. The re-designers of society. What progress!!!!

People like you need to grow up. Conservatism is an anchor. It stops zealots like you from destroying centuries of accumulated progress.

[Sleeper99999]

@144fran Your list of "conservative" demigods is silly. They were very different people from different eras and different societies, who, relatively speaking, are assigned to the "right" side of the political spectrum. That's it. Eisenhower would be well to the left of Obama today. Even Reagan wouldn't live up to the shrieking demands of the tea party weirdos.

And whatever Glenn Beck and Jonah Goldberg might tell you, Hitler and his Nazi cronies weren't lefties, sorry.

[144fran]

@jianghaolie

@hubbo001

Alan Moore, the author of the comic on which the film is based, stated: "the film has been turned into a Bush era parable by people too timid to set a political satire in their own country. The intent of the film is nothing like the intent of the book that I wrote. I refuse to be associated with the film".

[MrThenFamous]

@144fran didnt he say that about watchmen to

[Sleeper99999]

@144fran Codename: V blows up the Parliament because in the world in which this film is set, Parliament has been suspended and the building is used by the regime to disguise its own autocracy.

It doesn't really talk about the Tories at all. The original story was hijacked to tell a rather half-baked (but occasionally powerful) anti-Bush story. In the original work, Codename: V is quite openly a terrorist and an anarchist and it is not so clear-cut as to whether he is a hero or not.

[musicalover4eva110]

Why couldn't Evey breath? Was she having a panic attack b/c of the shock? Amazing actress btw!!!

[jianghaolie]

In the comic, she had an asthma. So its both the shock and the asthma...haha

[crackerscrumbledieha]

@musicalover4eva110 It was asthma

[29momerath]

@musicalover4eva110

Actually, I have watched the film with the closed captioning and during the part where she starts gasping and says she can't breath, she follows with the line "Asthma....when I was...little" But since she is so breathy, it is almost impossible to make out.

[SofiaSwe94]

It's only one thing that puzzles me about htis scene... I would've gone straight to Valerie's cell and try to free her if she'd been real.

[madamen13]

Valerie had been dead for several years when she found her letters.

[acapella82slc]

what an amazing actress. I love you natalie!

[AbusedHamster]

starting at 3:49 you can kinda hear the tone of the rants Agent Smith did in the Matrix.

[mathegiik]

through out the whole movie, if you watch uber carefully you can see gestures that carry through all of his characters.... it's really cool

[crackerscrumbledieha]

This scene TRANSCENDS even more than Valerie's letter which was sad enough. I love that V shows her the path which frees her from victimhood.

[uky5645]

I wonder a question... Would she have made that choice if she wouldn´t have found that Valerie letter?

[Sessyfan15]

probably not. if she didn't find it she wouldn't have anything to keep her wanting to live

[Spazzboy911]

This is such a powerful scene. V was reborn in fire.Evey was reborn in water.

[MiyahSummer]

Good point...

[Pmoneymatt]

@Spazzboy911 What do you mean "Evey was reborn in water"?

[Spazzboy911]

@Pmoneymatt ...it's raining. this is after the scene Evey was tortured and 'killed', or faced death directly and accepted it. knowing she has the strength to stand for what she believed in, even in the face of death, she's reborn with the ability to fight the injustice she faces.

oh, and it's raining. just in case that went un-noticed.

[Pmoneymatt]

@Spazzboy911 Oh I thought you were talking about how she was being dunked in water as a form of torture

[PewPewPit]

@Spazzboy911 V, born in fire, is the destroyer. Evey, born in water, is the builder. V started grooming Evey the moment he met her. His goal was to tear down what is, and leave the rebuilding process in capable hands.

[labioscarmin]

strong. thank you for uploading this scene

[Vakama95096]

V has feelings for Evey.

[liveforlife2494]

This is my FAVORITE scene out of this entire movie....Love it. SO well done. I was choking up when Evey collapsed to the floor.

[Yuurei69lovesJoker]

the most intesnse scene!!!!!! love this movie so fucking much!!!!!!!!!

[wantsomecake328]

lol he's just like

"hello evey"

like nothing happened.

[DarkHeart793]

God, even with a bald head and a potato sack dress Natalie Portman still looks beautiful.

[PixieCock]

Agreed.

[liveforlife2494]

She has beautiful eyes. =)

[MiyahSummer]

@DarkHeart793 I love her with the buzz

[bilyisbored92]

i thout is was watching the whole movie and then it stopped :(

[praetorian2150]

violence can be used for good :)

[bilyisbored92]

yes sir

[praetorian2150]

anyone see the link between this scene and the saw series? In the sense of ulterior motive of rehab or a change

[bilyisbored92]

i just realsed that myself

[XDoctorDementoX]

Gotta love how imagery is used here. Born in fire and born in water.

[truenigma1]

In the graphic novel, V said he loves Evey & that's the reason why he tortured her.

[ThePersecuted1]

My only hell was a lonely cell

But you phonies know me well

But you gotta stick to the script and then it' time to split

You had to put us through all this awful sh!t

But we never gave up or called it quits

And now here we are and the final brink

Am I gonna turn back now or fly or sink?

Clue: Revelation 11:11-12

[MrBritishLove]

If you are reading this comment i have written weeks ago! Then be aware, that i hold a key to life it self! In other-words! To make things more clearly and simple for you! I quote " Everything Happens For A Reason In This World " because if it didn't? It would never even have been thought of, nor even been committed to its accessment of life !

[ryodeath]

For putting 'British' in your name you sure don't know their native tongue that well.

[dezdelllll]

I am writing this comment in the hopes that it will help someone, even just a little. You see... I can now empathize with V and Evie. Completely. But the thing is that, and dont message me about it, if you aren't ready... you just won't be able to get it. Watch this scene though... it explains everything very well.

[FriedChickenAndCrime]

Get over yourself.

[Mikli7]

Such a beautiful scene.

I don't know who on youtube is familiar with Joseph Campbell or David Leeming, but whenever I watch this film, it just screams Voyage of the Hero. So many symbols, like the rain. It's truly moving.

[moonstruckfaye]

I think these are the best and most moving scenes in the movie - but also the most controversial ones. I mean HE tortured her, for some reason, but did he have a right to do it? But that's why I like -after all- the movie: no easy, conventional answers, no real hero/anti-hero sceme like in the usual Hollywood science fiction shit, but it's you who's left to think about it. French revolution wasn't peacefull either.

Besides: Dario Marinelli has again done a great job with the soundtrack.

[darkelessa]

Yeah thats my favourite scene too ^^

[boomshey07]

this is one of the most amazing scenes i have ever seen.

i shiver every time i see this.

[Jefrma]

this movie was ok, but when I bought the big comicbook I understood why Alan Moore had said he hated everything he saw in the script before the movie reached the theathers. They romantisized V and Evey over the edge, and turned V dramatically a lot more human that he was in the comic. Not to mention the rest of the colourful characters.. this would have looked amazing as a 2h long movie, but perhaps they feared the strong fasism that so shined in the book?

[sumoni]

Aw, poor Mr. Moore. I don't get why writers don't demand more control when they're work is being turned into a movie. As history has shown, they "hollywood" up a lot of things "based" on books.

I personally thought V & Evey were great! It's what got me into the original story. Also, I think due to the time period diff the directors or whoever decided to make it more about modern world problems so people could relate better.

[sumoni]

And I wasn't being sarcastic about Moore, I honestly feel bad he was ashamed of the film versions of his work. I read up on it. But I still stand behind he had the chance to have more artistic control and didn't take it. From what I've read, J.K rowling is on top of every movie of HP to make sure they don't screw it up, in her eyes anyways.

[Jefrma]

fully agree with you here. I´ve got the pic Moore is more a loner-type? Im very much a loner, but during my last arttrade (in which I drew my friend´s char, she mine) I was very strigt when I saw the finished peace and told her everything she had forgotten. Luckily it was done digitally, so the changes were easy for her to make. But Im still grudgy inside for her not listening at all my discription of the shape of my char, but going more stereotype way :(

[darthkarr]

err not true...jk rowling lets them take free reign...proof is the sixth film...burning of the burrow?...show me where that happened in the book

[sumoni]

Really? I lost interest in HP after the 4th movie. But I DO remember reading that she reviews every script before the filming. She even said how she wished she thought of that annoying talking head in the 3rd movie. I think after a while she might have just let them get away w/a lot since, well....the money.

[capitainesoffye]

@darthkarr more action I think. She does sit in on the script and stuff

[MissNaminette]

Phenomenal acting on Natalie's part.

And all of that is true. What a powerful message.

[ppaisley]

I find this whole scene very Buddhist..she looks like a nun...and the ideas around death and fear just ring that way for me.

[cilourock]

She's so beautiful with her head shaved...

The best part is: "I can't felle anything anymore!".

Natalie is a wonderful actress

[AlexKincaid]

This scene, and the seen before it, are just amazing.

There's something to be said here: Purpose over life.

[gregcarson]

her acting in this scene is so powerful and real its ridiculous the part when V goes on about how 'they' took her mother and father from her and ev just breaks down, man thats some powerful shit.

[Vicky5621]

I totally agree. This is really really good acting. She did an amazing job.

[Alishondra]

I love this scene..

[ppaisley]

I still get goosebumps from this scene...so powerful!

[jkcrystal2]

this is the greats thing i never seen my life that movie change everything what saw , lisening everything and that movie was so great . thanks u ^^

[elgrigorio1]

THis movie is amazing

[AresZeus500]

This is by far my favorite scene. I agree with Kotori32 about how the symbolism is very powerful. Evey is in fact repusenting life while V is truely repusenting death and destuction. I feel this is in the long run showing what fear and curruption does to leaders and how one must fix it quickly.

[profitprophet368]

Yeah I love this part. She stands by V even though she barely knows him, and they end up in deep, irreplaceable love.

[whitcat711]

love to see "Requiem for a Tower" music combined with this..............

[aleceth]

That song does not need to be attached to every movie ever.

[ska8remo15]

i love Natalie Portman!!

and i love this movie!!

best part ever!!

[bananaluvs]

one of my favorite scenes of all time

[Kotori32]

The symbolism is really powerful. V is Fire while Evey is Water. He is the element of destruction while she is the element of life. He can tear down the old world while she can build up the new.

[Busaganashi]

great interpretation, really good ^^

[Alishondra]

That's really cool..

[Vogtalicious]

Before this movie, really, THIS SCENE, I simply associated Natalie Portman with crappy Star Wars movies. Glad to see she can do depth!

[KeivanHH]

That's true! In this scene Natalie Portman really shows her true talent as actress.

[Myryamtuya]

i wish so much i could live without no fear.... i wish i could be free and let myself go... as the wind

[Dolphincrossing]

The biggest thing that holds most people in slavery is the fear of death. In one form or another, most fears have this at their root.

[zip420]

what the goverment and the police fear the most, is NOT being feared....

[jandav1981]

They fear love

[TerseBadge1]

cheeeeeeesey. should have left it at myramtuta's comment (btw great scene).

[StuffBurner]

i think this is the best scene of the movie

[borikuaMari08]

I never understood what happened with the hospital fire and why he killed all those people, especially the last woman. What was he taking revenge for?

[kiriakufromcyprus]

because they tortured and mutilated him as well as many other people. The "hospital fire" was an explosion in a concentration camp that v set off to escape. not just this, he wants free the people of england from the dictatorship that tortured him.

[KeivanHH]

V killed the doctor because she was the responsable of the experiments made on V's body and mind...V was member of a group chosen for some experiments(like Nazis did with Hebrews) but he set off the explosion to escape. Btw V respects the doctor because she was the only one who understood there was something special in him...But that is not enough to avoid his revenge

[TerseBadge1]

it's not that she saw something special in him. I think its more that she was the only one who was trying to do something good and she somewhat respected him for the sacrifice he "choose" to make for his country

[Dolphincrossing]

They also used the information they gained from experimenting on him to create the virus that killed all those people.

[Jackalman99]

I wish I could qualify for a rebate as I'm a sigle mom with a four year old. Cool, I'll pick it up then. Probably, or I wouldn't waste my time on You Tube

[Jackalman99]

like where she says shed rather die behind the chemical shed.

Wish I could see the whole film. someone said they think they're banning it cause it's really about Bush & the 9/11 hoax.

[makuanito]

does anyone know how the song at the end is called? I loved so much. Thnx for the vid btw

GreetzZz

[michil93]

The scene in the edn, with the flames...does that show what happened to V? Did they burn him and he survived? I am really sorry, but I haven't seen the movie...hehe. I love the music in the end too. Does anyone know what's its name?

[Jackalman99]

I think they did, some film clips on You Tube indicate that.

Jack Grimes, saw it whole in Complete in Canada. Some guy on You Tube thinks they're preventing it showing in America cause it shows that cocksucker Bush for what he really is.

[confusedham]

no you never find what v looks like as that was a flashback - its only subtley hinted when the viewer catches a glimpse of his hand which is red and extremely scarred

[Bomiheko]

about the "did they burn him and he survived?" question, the reason it happened was so that he could escape the facility by taking ammonia-based fertilizer back to his cell and igniting it

[michil93]

yeah, I know that already. I asked the question before I had watched the movie, wich I had trouble finding.

[StargateAtlantisDebz]

No he started the fire

[beecw]

the songs called "evey reborn" by dario marianelli
