I wish that Will Smith took more roles like this. He was very charismatic, charming, and quite believable. Stockard Channing's performance was amazing and probably a stand out as well. It was a wonderful character.
Fun fact: it is rumored that Denzel Washington told Will that doing a gay kiss would hurt his career (it was the 90s) and that’s why his kiss with Anthony Michael Hall was edited and looks awkward. Regardless, it was a great performance by Smith.
What’s crazy is this is based on a true story. David Hampton did this and got into the houses of Melanie Griffith, Calvin Klein. Gary Sinise, Leonard Bernstein and Inger and Osborn Elliot-a dean at Columbia on whom the couple in the movie are based. Freaking wild. I saw the movie a long time ago when I read some interview about Will Smith actually acting. I was really impressed.
@@dredayalldayerday oh, but i thought they where not shure who died in prison, maybe it was not him? They cant know, se we cant know. Maybe i missed something.
A young actor who is now a famous director is in this. JJ Abrams has a small role as a high strung son of a dr. In the credits he’s listed as John Abrams.
