The Firm is one of my favourite movies not just a Tom Cruise movie but in general also co-starred Gene Hackman, Holly Hunter and Gary Bussey as well as Wlfred Brimley and Ed Harris.

If you haven't seen or reacted to The Firm as it is full of intrigue and suspense it is an awesome thriller.

The quote is obviously famous, but the entire back and forth from Cruise and Nicholson (driven by Sorkin) at the climax of the movie is one of the best scenes ever put to film.

@charlize1253 Жыл бұрын

Most people decide that Jack Nicholson is a villain because of his ferocity, but the writing is much more subtle. His speech makes a good point about the gap between civilian and military ideas of honor, and how the two worlds barely understand each other. The military's job is to ensure that civilians never see violence, but they do it by being violent against enemies, and sometimes you don't want to know what they did to make the sausage.

There's one little moment of Cruises performance that always stood out to me on this, and I don't see it talked about much, but right after he gets Jessup to admit the Code Red was his order, Kaffee is in minor shock, and then requests the members be dismissed. While he's doing that he walks away from the bench, literally turning his back on Jessup, but look at how he's holding himself. He's got his right arm like locked, he's kind of hunched a tad, and as he gestures with his left hand, he looks like he's kinda vibrating with excitement. In other words he looks like his adrenaline is pumping like crazy after that exchange and he's doing his damndest to maintain control over his emotions.

50:43 I like the way the “romance” was handled in this movie. I like the idea that, from a writing perspective, it’s not that they needed a love story arc. Danny needed to learn to feel Jo’s empathy and the only way he could do that was to become intimate and vulnerable with her. It’s used as a spring board in his character arc, the closer he becomes with Jo the more empathy he shows towards Dawson and Downy.

@sherrysink3177 Жыл бұрын

Everybody loves "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!" but my favorite line of Jack's comes after that, when Danny says, "Did you order the code red?!" and Jessup says "YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT I DID!" Whooooooooooooo! Epic moment. So intense and I love it. ⚖

Legitimately one of my all time favorite movies. Also the play it’s based off of is also written by Sorkin. It’s like… 98% word for word identical

@bloodymarvelous4790 Жыл бұрын

He wrote his play based on something that happened to his sister. She was a JAG lawyer and sent to Gitmo to investigate a case, and she wondered why she (an inexperienced JAG lawyer) was sent to handle that case. This was the genesis of the play. When Rob Reiner acquired the rights for the movie, he asked Sorkin to rewrite it for the screen. Sorkin stuck pretty close to his stage play. Then Reiner explained that they weren't limited to stage sets, and they could go to any location he wanted. Sorkin then wrote the whole Gitmo scene with Col. Jessup and the Lt. Col. Markinson scenes.

Man oh man, the last time Tom Cruise did a good performance where you didn't see the acting was "Risky Business" in 1983, lol. You guys are great reactors! It's terrific because you guys know movies so well, obviously! You're just filling in! Very cool! Love that you recognized Christopher Guest. I'm assuming you've seen "This Is Spinal Tap" (which is also directed by Rob Reiner). If not, that should vault to the top of your list....especially since it's only an hour and 20 minutes! And I RELISHED how much you appreciated Jack's performance! You guys are fantastic Jack Nicholson reactors!!! Could you do me a favor? SO MANY of Jack's greatest performances/movies haven't even been reacted to yet! Or if so, very few. So these are all ones to cross of the list: "Easy Rider", "Five Easy Pieces", and "Carnal Knowledge". 1969, 1970 and 1971. These three put him on the map, changed the game, and established three archetypes for his characters. "Carnal Knowledge" is a PERFECT movie, script, acting, directing......not one reaction for it eyt. And you guys would KILL on that one! Going forward, "The Last Detail", "Chinatown" and "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" 1973, 1974, 1975. The first mountaintop. You probably saw them already. Jumping up a bit, you've got "The Shining" (which you must have seen) immediately followed by a COMPLETELY different, brilliant performance in "Reds" and then knocked it out of the park in "Terms Of Endearment" (his second Oscar). Those three movies in order, completely different performances. Then you've got "Prizzi's Honor", an 80s mob comedy directed by John Huston, great one! He's great in "Broadcast News" in a sort of cameo role. And also in "Heartburn" with Meryl Streep. (he also did "Ironweed" with Meryl Streep, though I'm not sure how that one holds up). In the late 90s he did "About Schmidt", one of his last truly great performances. Anyways, whichever of those films you haven't seen yet, pop 'em on the list! There are others as well, but I didn't want to overwhelm you with an even longer listing. Definitely don't sleep on "Carnal Knowledge", on or off the channel!!!!
