Hi there

(whispers "couch cheek" and laughs)
God dang it. I practiced . .
You got it right.. as well the first time!
I practiced right before rolling
I'm so sorry Kalki Koechlin
I am so sorry.
You got it right!
I apologize
I'm sure she's seeing this video and going "how come this dumb American's not getting my name right?"
I'm just . .I'm so sorry
Okay, Let's Try, That again
Hello people. I'm Jaby Koay. Joining us is Achara Kirk.
Hii
We're gonna look at "Ribbons" Starring Kalki Koechlin
And Sumeet Vyas
Here. Let's check it out
wow
wowww
It's actually pretty powerful
I gue.. Yeahh..
They Encapsulated what feels like real life ...
yeah
...problems..
Oh my god
It Just felt it felt so real
I was, uh.. i know I say this a lot when I watch the trailers that I like but like I literally
no i agree with you also
I got it also
it felt so.. so real... like all of those moments of feeling of.. fear and anxiety and trepidation
you look like you just got run over by a truck
.. I felt so many emotions I'm like
Oh my god like "They're gonna have a baby" and yet all of those things that they're talking about are so real that issue
with her where, you know, upon finding out that she's pregnant.
Suddenly her job Is in jeopardy and it seemed like she lost, her job and i.. I know someone
specifically
who pretty much got fired
in fact, no, she didd get fired
When her employer found out that she was pregnant
I'm glad the movie's talking about that because
I don't think that it's actually spoken about enough...
to the best of my recollection I can't think of another movie where they actually
spoke about that SPECIFIC IDEA
Where someone gets pregnant and they get fired because of it or their job is in jeopardy because of it
I know that as, like, as a concept i'm aware of it and its possibility
but I'm not aware of a film or even just like a book or anything that talked about that
yeah.. it's very real! I mean
even what her boss said..
"32% of my workforce could disappear"
right
But, it's not fair
Over here, We have you know with depending on the job you get
umm
what do you call it..
"maternity leave" .. Yeah
and in the in the u.s.
It's not even as good as in some other country
right
because you only get a month
no i get it
I'm used to hearing about maternity leave right.. so I don't think about it as much
I know that not all
jobs over here have that
I'm just saying like it's a concept over here that I'm familiar with
..outside of that..
What made this work so well Is that it didn't get caught up in creative camera angles it just
yeah
It was just kind of like a fly on the wall
the camera just kind of let the actors do their thing and because of that
it felt like you were standing there with them
watching and have this conversation so it felt like you
were part of their lives even though the camera wasn't here like this
it felt more intimate somehow.. which is really interesting
not cutting so much let's the dialogue kind of play out with a very real rhythm
instead of it being chopped up
like.. like I said a second ago
and so I really like the style of this.
It's obviously falling Into that kind of Indie category that Kalki Koechlin likes to do a lot
yeah
I like the choices that she makes for the roles she does
she always picks this really
interesting, challenging roles to do
I think that she's a wonderful, wonderful actress.
One of my
all-time favorite actresses
I don't know if you guys have heard me say it before, but like, I have a hard time picking out like my
"favorite actress"
Ellen Burstyn from Requiem For a Dream
was like my favorite for a long time but Kalki Koechlin is actually on that list as well
even though I can't say her name, to save my life.
Like I love Kalkki Koechlin. I think that She's an awesome actress.
just a.. power house. You know.. She's amazing
I think that Sumeet Vyas is doing an excellent job
You just kind of like
He's so natural
The way that he fits this role so .. so well
Because they know most people have seen like permanent.. are familiar with him from Permanent Roommates
Yeah
And this is gonna be like
the second time they're seeing him
even though he's in a lot of work in between
it's like an interesting Contrast Because
But there's also similarities as well..
There's some similarities but this dude Is so much more real than the character that he plays in Permanent Roommates
and also what I like
What it seems to me in this story is that you get along a time period with them because you see them as the
child growing up as well
So you get to see all of the trials and tribulations of
what it means to go from being 2 to 3
Right
I take back what i said a second ago
it's not that he's more real here. It's just..
he feels closer to I guess someone that I could identify with
right yeah
in terms of just kind of like
he's not it's not so Quirky
This guy's not quirky
Whereas Sumeet's character in um... Permanant Roommate was quirky
He's just like more of a normal dude here
it's just interesting to see Sumeet play that and play it really really well
It's not done in a boring way either though
it's hard to put my finger on it it's just such a such a well executed..
even though...
like.. even though it's just a trailer like you can tell these performances are really well done because you just..
immediately hooks you
and you're like, "oh my god," like.. " I buy into this"
"and I want to see it. I will see what happens"
"I want to see how their relationship grows and evolves"
and the way they left it with that big argument, you're like
"no! but I want their relationship to win!"
"I want them to stay together"
so now I have to go watch the movie
to find out if that actually happens or if they're gonna do one of those things that they sometimes do
in films where you're all like "Please stay together" and at the end they're like
"no"..
"hah!"
and then you're broken.
and you're ..... crying Into your popcorn
That little moment in the elevator where they all had that kind of intense look
it's interesting because
it's almost like the Ryan-Gosling-effect where...
you kind of see all of their issues and history and everything they've gone through
in their eyes
Whether or not the actors like
deliberately did that just because they're standing there kind of looking with that uh..
stoic face
That deadpan look
You can project ...
yeah... you're projecting as a person onto them
their entire history that the trailer showed you
and you like... you just feel it
It's really weird. It's so cool
or like all the things that you relate to
sure
in that and you project it on them
so whatever you feel most strongly....
yeah
