This is a fun video montage featuring movie characters at moments in the film when they are looking at the audience. The video was edited together by Brutzelpretzel to the song "Can't Take My Eyes Off You." Here's a note from the creator:
This is a tribute to the wink of complicity from the filmmakers to the audience when they make actors look straight into the camera. It is not a tribute to scenes where the fourth wall is broken (when a character adresses the audience directly), some clips in the video belong to that category but most of them don't cause it is not what we wanted to show.
There are 148 different clips in this video, but at first we had selected more than 200 films. We left out dozens of scenes in purpose, cause we didn't want a 15 minutes montage. For example, we decided not to include the "found footage" genre, cause almost everyone looks at the camera in this type of movies (like Cloverfield). And also musical numbers, where it's very common that the actors look at the camera while singing. And, obviously, there are many more films missing cause we didn't know them. Apologies in advance for every film we discarded or missed.
Watch the video, and let us know what your favorite movie character look is.
