This is tied for my favorite movie of all time. There's just something so real about every character, and the ending scene always just kills me. Like a glimmer of hope in the darkest of dark worlds.
I have started to watch this movie at least 10 times since it was released and have never gotten past 15 minutes due to life's interruptions.... And not even now. But I saw the notification from your channel. Perhaps tonight I'll get through it with you two.
For the marketing of this film. Tom Cruise even did a late night info/commercial. it might be on youtube. Definitely one of his best roles. It was based partly on Ross Jeffries and probably that PUA guy you mentioned.
