00:03Io sono Buster, Buster Scruggs. La tua pistola funziona?
00:11A quanto pare sì!
00:15Al Festival di Venezia i fratelli Cohen hanno detto che amano il western da quando da ragazzini saltavano la scuola
00:22per andare al cinema.
00:23Avete saltato anche voi la scuola per andare a vedere i film al cinema?
00:28Good question. I don't think, from memory I have, I don't think I have. I think I was quite a
00:35good boy in school.
00:36I think I ever bunked off.
00:39I did it in college, but not in high school or grade school. I think they were talking about doing
00:45it in grade school.
00:47And I think their story was that it was Yom Kippur or Rosh Hashem, so there was a Jewish holiday.
00:53stavano giocchi da sinagoga, che è peggio, stavano giocchi da Dio.
00:58Papa Francesco dice che l'umorismo e il sorriso sono i modi migliori per esprimere la bellezza.
01:04Secondo voi, l'umorismo dei Cohen ci porterà all'inferno o al paradiso?
01:13Beh, non lo so, non lo so, non lo so, non lo so.
01:16Sì, credo che sia bello.
01:19Credo che sia bello del loro lavoro in generale e in questo film
01:24è il fatto che si trattano con cose pesante e facendo in un modo così facile.
01:33E spesso penso che quando questi due oppositi sono in giro,
01:36quando qualcosa di più bello happens,
01:39both very dark and very beautiful at the same time.
01:42And I think that's certainly true of this film.
01:46Neither of us is going to contradict Pope Frances.
01:57But, well, I don't know, maybe Church of England, maybe you will.
02:01Yeah, his forebears, they wouldn't let Henry VIII divorce.
02:06Yeah.
02:07And so you can say whatever you want.
02:09Say whatever.
02:10But there's this saying by this thinker, he was actually a critic,
02:19named Harold Klerman, an American theater critic.
02:22And he said you have to get the audience laughing so that their mouth is open
02:27and you can put the food in.
02:30and in a sense Joel and Ethan do that.
02:34Although I think it's more an intuitive process than an intentional or cynical one.
02:43their humor is never frivolous, I believe.
02:51They probably would disagree with that.
02:53But I think there's always at the very least a generosity and a tenderness to it.
03:00And then in terms of the violence, they're writing about how life just sideswipes you.
03:07And that's a very philosophical point of view.
03:22What princess would I be?
03:23Yeah, you could, you could.
03:24I mean, I'm not sure which princess I'd be.
03:26Probably an ugly sister.
03:31If you're an ugly sister, that means that I'm gonna be some sort of creature on the forest floor.
03:41I'm a princess transmogrified into something else.
03:45Do you think Western is the best genre to talk about today's society or today's America?
03:52Hmm.
03:55Every...
03:56There are all sorts of genres in every art form.
04:01And so, I don't think necessarily one is...
04:08Your question is a very good one.
04:10And I just, I guess I'd want to step back
04:13and say that every genre, whether it's a Western or a thriller
04:18or a drama or a comedy,
04:21whether it's a painting or a piece of music,
04:23needs to be re-examined by each generation
04:28to refract the issues of the day.
04:31And the Western is no exception.
04:35Robo da matti!
04:43Prima volta?
04:44Eh?
04:45You
04:50Grazie a tutti.
