@GravesRWFiA Месяц назад

a lot of people say cruise wasn't very good in the movie but that shows how good he is- IF you don't think he really gets under nicholson's skin, then the outburst makes no sense. what is arguable one of nicholson's two most famous lines would be meaningless unless you believe he's really angry and it is cruise that gets him there.

@Iamready4peace 3 дня назад

Cruise’s character is fairly passive and his aggressive style against the colonel is not realistic. He might get his own unspoken code red by any Marine worth his weight for those kind of shenanigans. People like that really can’t handle the truth of protecting our freedom. Semper Fi

@PrecursorIdeliron Месяц назад

One thing I never seem to notice anyone mention is how Nicholson manages to portray the initial feeling of a cocky General who thinks he’s gotten away with murder, but as Cruise starts to poke holes in his testimony, he begins to lose his demeanor. His eyes dart away and to the side as he’s asked to produce an answer. His condiment demeanor begins cracking even before the climax of the scene. It’s subtle, and the kind of thing that you might not notice that first time around, but it sells the big moment: the moment where the General finally breaks, and loses his cool. All the build up, the risk, the gamble, all so you could see an explosion of a character that would fit in a detective noir. Masterful work by all on display.

He literally ticked a box and they got him some lessons. Fortunately Bodison nailed it.

@Houdini774 Год назад

The look of shock on Tom Cruise's face when Nicholson flagrantly and without one speck of remorse admits freely to giving the Code Red. This is one of the most intense scenes in motion picture history. Cruise's character knew that if he kept needling Nicholson, his colossal ego would fly into a rage and cause him to drop his guard. But I don't think Tom expected Jack was going to admit a full confession on the stand. This scene was the perfect storm as far as script, acting, directing, editing and photography.

If he didn't show a second's regret he would be a robot, as much an unfeeling machine as everyone likes to paint the Nicholson character. Bacon's performance and the writing of his part are good precisely because he DOES have that moment's regret. He just is able to put that aside and do his duty--as Nicholson cannot do, because he and his job are too closely grafted together.
