>> Speaker 1: First 40 minutes of Sicario are some of the best in recent memory.

Culminating in the brilliance that is the Juarez border crossing bridge sequence.

So, we're diving in and for this entry into our brilliant moment series

we're looking at the structure of tension in Villenueve's Sicario.

>> Speaker 1: After an honorable mention-worthy raid on an abandoned

Arizona house, led by FBI agent Kate Maser, reveals

dozens of bodies inside the drywall and dozens of explosives rigged in the shed.

Kate finds herself offered an opportunity on an inter-agency task

force to get the men who were really responsible for the violence.

Maybe it's the smug, need to know attitude of the besandled Josh Brolin, or

the implication that the somewhere near El Paso they'll be going to is

And somewhere between the dangerous mystery of Benicio Del Toro's Alejandro,

the serious military hardware they're sporting, and the warnings about where

an attempt will be made, we realize that we're on a crash course with violence.

>> Speaker 2: Delta if you can identify yourself so

everyone knows who to hide behind when shit hits the fan.

>> Speaker 1: So, when Johann Johansson's brilliantly grimy score swells for

the first time as we arrive in cartel controlled Mexican

border town we know something's going down.

And the tension mounts, and mounts, and mounts, and mounts.

The convoy has to divert when they hear gunshots.

>> Speaker 1: They arrive at the Juarez prison to collect the prisoner.

>> Speaker 3: If they try anything, it won't be at the border.

>> Speaker 1: They're tailed by a rogue state police officer.

>> Speaker 4: I spot a vehicle nine o'clock.

>> Speaker 1: And finally, when we've just about cut our backsides on the edge of our

seats, we get back to the borde, and, gridlock.

And this is where we expect we've been told

three times already that the most likely attempt will be here at the border.

stuck in traffic surrounded by cars, any of which could hold the enemy.

Especially, this one here, and, that one there.

The rules of engagement are clear, we can't fire until they fire.

So, we sit and we wait, wait and we wait.

And the simple act of rolling down a window is transformed from

The tension builds and we're ready about to bust when we get our moment.

>> Speaker 7: What the fuck are we doing?

If you're a nail biter, so sorry about your stubs.

If you're a pants shitter, well that's gotta be rough man.

Well, let's zoom out a bit and take a look at the bridge sequence as a whole.

If this is the bridge sequence from here to here, at about four minutes long,

these parts are just tense waiting, these parts are ratcheting up the tension,

these are the big crescendos, and this all of just nine seconds is the action.

It's just baiting breath and baiting breath, and baiting breath.

It's promises of violence that keep not harming.

How many ways do films delay the action here?

wait, then can't get out because of the rules of engagement.

Then we are in their car waiting for them to master up the courage to get out,

then they get out and we are trying to DS movie and then there is the talking.

And then only then about three minutes from the beginning of the sequence do we

you'll know we've actually been doing this for about 13 minutes.

rationing up a tension, these are the big crescendos, these moments are scary,

silent, waiting moments that break it up, kind of the come for storm, and

at this is distance, the violence just looks like this

>> [MUSIC] >> Speaker 1: That's nearly 13 whole

minutes, built entirely around nine seconds of violence.

Vilnu takes his time with it, where a lesser director may be tempted to rush to

the actiony parts, Vilnu knows that the morbid details are way more interesting.

30 seconds sitting, waiting in alley isnt work.

It's one of the most exciting moments of the sequence, because we're with Kate.

Looking around every corner when things popped up.

And Vilnu is giving us enough clues that things will pop off and

Apprehension about something we sort of seen coming, but not exactly what, and

It is a burlesque strip show of violence,

it is incremental promises of what's to come followed by delays, and

when we think it's nearly upon us it's still minutes away.

And if we're being entirely honest the film really starts getting our hearts
