How you fall doesn't matter, it's how you land | Video Essay

La Haine is, to this day, one of the most visceral movies I have ever watched. Everything about it induces anxiety

That DJ crane scene is one of THE dopest shots of all time. This movie is pure gold, especially if you can pick up the French

Great video, I haven't seen many people talking about this movie. It's one of my favourites and I keep recommending it to almost everyone I meet.

Besides Vinz being white, he's also Jewish. In France, Jewish people have historically been disenfranchised and discriminated against. Also, this is an amazing video! I love this movie so much!

It provides a necessary context for understanding the social issues of the past and present. I am one of those guys who was born in the "banlieues" and I think that, like many people, I have witnessed (and inherited) these scenes of constant tension between the power of the police, who legally cover themselves, and the youth, whose Haine towards them grows. Obviously, Kassovitz's film lacks a lot of information, but the desire to portray people growing inside this chaos in their complexities and emotions is perfectly represented in your video, well done ! +1 sub (hope my english was not completely dogshit btw)

Incisive and eloquent study of one of the 90s truly great movies. This is a marvellous essay with exceptional articulation of ideas and analysis.

Vincent Cassell has been in this, Black Swan and Irreversible. Damn son, time for a buddy comedy.

For some reason, your video popped up in my recommended. I will admit I won't be finishing this one as I plan to watch it, but I took a look through your channel and I am amazed that you don't have more views or subs. You speak with such knowledge and passion, specifically I liked your reviews on the Beekeeper and The Killer (watched those because I had seen the films) and then your Month of Kurosawa video was really enjoyable! I was surprised when you said you only started getting into film a year ago, you already have an understanding of these works. Best of luck in future videos, and I hope to see the next one very soon :)

I enjoy that choosing to film in black and white gives it a timeless feel. Plus que ca change.

this reminds me of the style in Do The Right Thing.

Amazing video and analysis, will be looking forward to more

This is a really good video!

Amazing video. Im glad to be on for the ride this early.

Superb analysis of a superb film.

this video is amazing, subscribed and look foward to more, on the battle of the algiers maybe ?

Jusqu'ici, tout va bien. Jusqu'ici, tout va bien. Jusqu'ici, tout va bien. Phenomenal film.

Absolutely perfect movie

how did you get so good at analyzing films? I saw this film once and it reminded me of Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing.

Youtube recommended me this from apnaj 💀

What a stunning breakdown of this movie, I need to watch again, thank you.
