Guy can from 0 to 10 in a second in his acting abilities. First saw him in Twister then Along came Polly to this guy. Really shows how great of an actor he was.
@@jordan9164 man I haven’t run across many people who know those quotes ahahah. Legendary part for PSH lmao. He was a tour de force on screen even if he was serious or playing the crocodile tear prodigy lmao.
I had the chance to meet philip seymour hofman in nyc in a Ukrainian diner called veselka in the east village. At first, i asked to take a picture and he said he didnt do that in public and it was a bit awkward, but Then i asked to shake his hands and he literally glew up and started chatting with me, asking where i was from and what i was doing in nyc etc. I told him that i was a big fan, but from all his amazing roles, the ones that i liked the most were in mission impossible 3 and along came polly. He laughed. When he left, he even said goodbye. He was nice. He died a few weeks later
@@gmfagundes that was close , you are lucky , Philip was one of the great actor and a very humble and cheerful person I was meet him at mission impossible 3 movie premiere back in France , 16 april 2006 , I have no cellphone at that time so the memories stick in my mind
I haven't seen the movie.I wondered how she was still alive, because he didn't seem like he was faking.Took a minute to assume the sequencing wasn't right.
@NotNotKenny it wasn't Julia. It was a random woman that worked for him. He put a mask on her to make her look like Julia, in order to confirm the rabbit's foot Ethan gave him wasn't a fake
Hollyweird man. It pollutes the mind then the spirit. That's why these guys kill themselves Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Robin williams, Lee Thompson young, Marilyn Monroe etc..
"What I did to your friend? That was nothing. That was... fun... That was FUN." Imagine being introduced to the late great Philip Seymour Hoffman (R.I.P.) as Dusty in Twister, then seeing him play a character like this years later.
It's funny to watch Philip Seymour Hoffman as energetic and outgoing Dusty in Twister and then see him playing the twisted evil motherf*cker Davian in Mission Impossible 3.
Was born in 1990 so got introduced to Hoffman in Twister as a kid, right up until his Hunger Games days I was a huge fan. The guy was immense. So frustrating to be taken out by addiction, it's such an evil, soul sucking disease. Apparently it only started with a sip of champagne celebrating the success of the Hunger Games movie, which broke his years long sobriety and snowballed into a huge drug overdose 😢 RIP. Legend.
I never saw a bad FSH performance. He shone so brightly. His death was a blow to many. When an actor can interpret such a broad range of human emotion, he or she can reach millions.
Man Phillip Seymour Hoffman Nailed this Villain Role Perfectly! it's a Shame he no longer with us I remember him being Dusty from Twister! RIP Phillip Seymour Hoffman
Hoffman died before his time. He was an AMAZING actor, with tremendous range. Cruise was exceptional in this scene as well. You could see the spy gears turning in his head, trying to navigate _not_ giving the bad guy the deadliest MacGuffin in the world, while also trying save his wife, while also trying to attone for his actions against Hoffman's character earlier in the film. Just an all around well written and performed scene, and by far, the best scene in any of the Mission Impossible films.
Tom Cruise is amazing in this scene as well. Between each count he takes Ethan through stages of grief. 1... denial ...2...bargaining 3... anger & acceptance ...4... more bargaining ...5... depression ...6 anger ...7...
Reminds me of gumball when bobert is about to explode in 10 seconds but they spend way more than that. 5. Who would’ve thought it would end like this? THERES NO FIVE SECONDS TO DO SOMETHING?! 4. … WHAT ARE YOU DOING! I’m waiting to get that strength you get from dangerous situations.
@@ShawnLattimore reality is when you have someone sitting,and you walk into the room,,and simply explain how things are going to play out,,the sitter always gives you what ever you want,,no matter how big or a tuff guy they portray,,they roll over like cowards,,Ive simply lived in the real world,,and made a simple comment,,
@@StephenForster-gl5fc So, you've been tied to a chair and threatened?? Tortured?? Interesting. Otherwise, I'm not seeing where your evidence comes from. Just claiming that movies are fake I guess.
PSH did a superb job. It was a shame they copped out with the ‘body double’ thing. Hoffman’s character deserved shooting the hero’s wife for real. That would have sealed it as one of the all time villainous acts. Hoffman was such a versatile and watchable actor. He could have gone on in movies forever, a huge loss to cinema.
It's interesting that the most outstanding actors battle demons (drug use, alcoholism, etc.) - Seymour Hoffman, Downey Jr., Clarence Williams lll, etc.
I remember seeing this movie right after seeing "No Country For Old Men" and my mom saying, "His villain might have been better than Javier Bardem." Idk if I agree, but I felt like he could have had a legendary villain role in the same vein.
Here's my two cents: Anton Chigurh did what he did even when he knew he didn't have to because he lived by his own personal code, judged anyone who didn't live up to it, and believed himself to be a force for something greater than himself. He was willing to let people live as long as they didn't cross him. He spares numerous people he could've killed. The only time he kills or threatens to is when he determines there's no alternative. He only went out of his way to assassinate Carla because he was keeping a promise to her husband who'd already condemned her to death. He gave Llewelyn Moss the chance to save her, but Moss chose not to take it. Anton is more of an amoral antagonist than a villain. He does monstrous things, but not for pleasure. It's an obligation for him, not just as a job but as a way of life. To betray that would mean betraying his philosophy. Owen Davian did what he did even when he knew he didn't have to because he genuinely enjoyed it. He'd kill someone regardless of whether they'd crossed him, just because he knew it would hurt someone else. He had no code, morals, conscience, or way of life to speak of beyond making sure that he always got his way. I can't say who's better in terms of character or performance, as they're very different beasts portrayed by actors with different styles who affect their respective plots in different ways. Davian is definitely the more villanous of the two in my opinion. If I had to pick an overall favorite, I'd say Anton was scarier and more interesting. When I first saw No Country for Old Men, I couldn't predict what he'd do next. Davian was also scary, but more direct.
Mission Impossible are my favorite action and spy movies this film is great Phillip gives a chilling performance RIP he’s one of my favorite MI villains
@@therealblackcerberus2371 I hear you. But for me, Gabriel and the Entity feel more like a supernatural Marvel villain than a real world malicious evil person. Davian felt "real" as a villain and so did the risks that Ethan faced. MI3 was the last time I felt like the stakes were actually high and Ethan could actually lose something (his wife, his life) He actually struggles in this movie and takes damage where we see him truly injured and nearly broken. You don't see too much of this in the newer films. It's almost like he became sort of invincible in the others. In the movies after 3, it was all about chasing some sort of cataclysmic superweapon that could wipeout humanity - a plot we see in literally every big budget action film, from James Bond to any Jason Statham film to even the later Fast and Furious films.
This scene is just insanely tense, I love Mission impossible 3 & Ghost protocol the most out of the ones I've seen, I've also seen Rogue nation which was alright.
Ever heard of a saying "hate the artist, not the art"? Same thing applies here. It's perfectly normal to like someone's work without necessarily liking the person behind it. Sure, Tom Cruise may be a scientologist but he's a damn good actor who completely nails his role in an awesome movie. By not watching it all you do is merely rob yourself of experiencing this very good movie franchise. But hey, you do you.
Whenever someone passes away, you hear “it won’t be the same without them,” etc. But this was especially, mathematically true of Hoffman. When ever you hear that a new film is coming out now, the odds of it being fun or interesting are that much lower because there is a 0% chance he will be in it.
Tom Cruise is acting his heart out and phillip is just counting to 10..smh and tom cruise is actually underrated he coukd do more "a few good men dramas"
When your taught interigation,, methods,, your told eventually no matter how tuff you believe yourself to be,,you will talk eventually,,you must understand,,not everyone do things by the Geneva convention,,, simple things like electrocution,,or taking a power drill to the kneecaps,, amputation,,,breaking bones,,hands,arms,legs,,,would you say if these methods were used upon you ,,you wouldn't talk😂😂
PSH did a superb job. It was a shame they copped out with the ‘body double’ thing. Hoffman’s character deserved him doing it for real. That would have sealed it as one of the all time villainous acts.
God damn. when Ethan shared that tear right before Phillip shot her. I noticed that I was crying also like what the fuck. I don't even remember the scene being this intense when I watch this shit over 10 years ago and, I'm like fucking broken up like what the fuck I didn't realize back then how intense this was
This transcends more than just mission impossible. It's on an entirely different level as one of the best villain scenes ever. Everything just fell into alignment and it was shot damn near perfect with yet another legendary performance by Philip Seymour Hoffman. Absolutely chilling. And the range of this actor is crazy. Just watch Boogie Nights.
I always thought this concept "tell me or I'll kill her" is so stupid. That's like hiding behind a hostage threatening to kill him / her. Like how the fuck does that work? Who are you going to hide behind if you kill that hostage? What incentive to tell you the truth does the person have, if you kill the person that's your only leverage? That would never work on me. If you kill her, I have all the reasons in the world to NOT tell you.
That’s assuming they only have one hostage. Now think of it like this “tell me or I’ll keep killing your loved ones one after another until you say what I want”. After which point they’d probably kill the person themselves.
@@joaoalves9330 I get that, but.....well, nobody would ever say "Thanks for your cooperation, you are free to go." They are going to kill you regardless, and Ethan Hunt doesn't have anyone aside from her, so that was kinda the point of me saying "only leverage".
@@lad4830 I guess irrational fear takes hold of the person and they say whatever the interrogator wants just on the small chance their loved one will survive. Realistically, they'd both probably be killed regardless of whether or not he talked.
