I have never seen this movie, but I did a scene as Martin in an acting for filmmakers scene. It was this very scene.

Pretty much describes how it really works. "...and we were loaned out to a CIA sponsored program, that's that way it works."

"Everything about you is a lie" She says to a man whose been honest to his detriment for the entire movie. The "Lie" is only what she projected onto him, not what he was.

"Society is played by Minnie Driver"

What an evil man.

I know Boyd is burning up in hell 🔥

Hey Jenny Slater

“People joke about horrible things they don’t do, they don’t DO them that’s absurd”

His ministry? Strange. Doesn’t sound right.

I've always liked this scene and this movie. I also thought Driver's intense "You don't get to have me!" stood out, as it wasn't something often seen on film at the time nor is it in the formulaic rom-com today. And I somehow really wanted her to stick by that, and for a movie that seemed like it would bring the lovers together somehow to actually just not do that at all. Even after the family affair and his keeping her father safe. Maybe they just understand each other better, and she sees how plastic ethics can be on the world stage while he better understands the way to ground himself with connections to other human beings. But they don't get together in the end and he doesn't get to have her. Would have been a bold choice. Maybe not the right choice for a quirky romcom audience. But a bold one.

They should do an episode on catholic mythology

George Armitage made this and also Miami Blues a few years earlier, that has a similar tone. Hugely underrated director I must say

I hate these movies where a stoic with a level of psychopathy romantically chases a very ordinary woman. I get its to attempt to create a sense of normalcy but its hugely frustrating. Just find a woman on your wavelength who not so gullible as to honestly believe civilized societies are without mutder, esp government sponsored murder. He was making a ton of sense and she was still in fairytale land.

He didn’t do it because he was ex-communicated. He did it because he was lied to his whole life about the church. Pure slander.

Ultimately the movie still glamourizes and tries to justify America's Military Industrial War and Murder Machine - not least by casting Cusack to play a typical geopolitically unresearched+clueless American. Paul G

I love this movie so much

This film must have been a big inspiration for "Barry". A man who found some skill in the military & was later used by people to use this skill as a tool to kill people and then became an assassin, and decides he doesn't want to live that life anymore, and always tells people that he is a professional killer but they think he's just joking. Martin Blank - Barry Block Debi- Sally Grocer - Fuches (kinda)

Psychopath... Not Sociopath.

"You're overreacting" "YEAH! Yeah..."

No such thing as a former spook.

"It's a depressing dream to dream about that rabbit. It's got no brain, it's got no blood, it's got no anima. It just keeps banging on these meaningless cymbals endlessly and going and going" -Dr Oatman ~Ben

Moral flexibilty

Nothing about him was a lie he told. I dont get her logic

hes just a killer.

I don't know why but every line John Cusack is saying sounds like the dark humor a la Ricky Gervais.

Great scene. #gs

“You don’t get to have me!” 25 minutes later: has her. 😆 I love how, in the end, it turns out she was okay with it and rode off into the sunset with him.

I feel like, if he hadn't said he'd started to like it, he *might* have been able to find a way to salvage that conversation. Like, if he'd said something like "when the military and the CIA train you to be a killer and you kill all the time, you start to lose sight of when it's okay to kill someone and when it isn't", and then *maybe* something about how there's not much difference between the government paying you to kill someone and private entities paying you to kill someone, that she might have at least walked away not thinking he's a psychopath.

A slap would have doubled as punctuation, and emphasis. "You don't get to have me" *SLAP*

Audio guys had one job, he pulls the hammer back on a glock. Great movie still.

And yet he ends up with her in the end. But I do love this weird, dark flick. What a concept for what is essentially a violent rom com.

If I didn’t meet Tom Jankiewicz at Rogers Roost in 92’, none of this would have happen.

“You should read the files on some of these fuckers. I mean it reads like a demon’s resumé.”

I don’t agree with Mormonism But this is absolutely unacceptable

I _love_ the part where he says: "what civilizations are we talking about here?"

I freaking love this movie . "Moral flexibility " LOL .

Most fellow Mormons love South Park

"A certain moral flexibility" is the best line of this movie/era ngl.

"If I show up at your door, chances are, you did something to bring me there." Creepy? Maybe. But, that does sound like a good pickup line.

2:51 🤣🤣🤣🤣

A great distillation of what drives Gen X motivations

"Psychopaths kill for no reason I kill for mon-ey- that didn't sound right." So many great lines. Love this film.

fighting it resisting it is stressful let it go and accept you feel this way. How you feel and think doesnt mean you will act on it. I have these feelings but i just cant act on it i just dont feel comfortable in a relationship it doesnt feel like i belong the community are very judgemental on looks and sizes and shapes. So i feel sad . So i surrounded myself with those who love me and i dont deny im gay. i surround myself with love not toxicity. However looking back I wouldnt do this course.

Just saying something into a microphone doesn't make it true. Thin-lipped white men in grand and spacious buildings claiming your spirituality is held to their rules. Black magic.

I was baptized mormon at 8 and a true believer for 18 years. Since leaving the Mormon church, I have found peace, support, and community that I never knew within Mormonism. The world is so much bigger than these men and their hateful opinions on sexuality. I can testify that my life is exponentially better without Mormonism or the teachings of Mormon prophets and apostles.

Too bad ol Boyd never came out of the Closet!

He basically just said democracy (voting) is always to God's will and to only listen to God's will (what they tell you) Ruthless con men

If the roles were reversed most dudes would be like "so....how many ppl have you killed 😍"

This is a classic along the lines of Lebowski.
