00:00And speaking of analysis, I'd like to talk about the final scene of the film.
00:03Because this ending is quite hardcore pessimistic.
00:06Throughout the film, we will be shown characters who are in complete opposition.
00:09who literally can't stand each other,
00:11but who here will find common ground,
00:12will finally manage to understand each other through one single thing,
00:16hatred, violence and death.
00:18We have an ultra-racist Southern American and a Black Union soldier
00:22who join hands to hang a woman
00:24and look at it as if it were a work of art.
00:26He concluded by reading a letter full of good intentions,
00:28with genuine human values, a true ethic,
00:31all filmed from the point of view of the woman who has just been hanged.
00:33all the while knowing that the letter is fake.
00:35And that ending, it's really tough.
00:37And he tells us quite a lot.
00:39He shows us that a director who is considered by many to be incredibly fun
00:42can also demonstrate enormous pessimism.
00:44Particularly with regard to his own country and his foundations.
00:47In fact, I recently saw someone pointing it out to me.
00:49that the two on the bed at the end form the colors of the American flag.
00:53That is to say, blue, white and red.
00:54Which are also our colors.
00:56You can draw whatever conclusion you want from that.
00:57So yeah, the Hateful Eight lives up to its title.
00:59And Tarantino tells us that humans are beasts.
01:02Violent beasts.
01:03They have only one thing in common: violence.
01:05And then suddenly the film becomes much less fun.
01:07But that's also what makes it a good film.
01:08Because on paper it's a very simple film.
01:10And generally, the simplest films are the best.
01:13I can also mention Mad Max: Fury Road.
01:14All you need is a good story, good actors, and good directing.
01:18And something to talk about.
01:19A message to get across.
01:20And that's what the eight bastards do.
01:21All of this, of course, with a certain detachment, and with humor.
01:24It might even be the darkest film in Tarantino's filmography.
01:27In any case, don't hesitate to give him another chance.
01:28If you've already seen it and didn't really like it.
01:30Or if you've never seen it, don't hesitate to watch it.
01:32Even though I've given away a little bit of the spoiler.
01:34But anyway, it doesn't matter.
