When your wife bets on you, even though the risk is high... ...damn, the feels in this are strong now that I am old enough to see what just happened there. He is terrified that he won't be able to provide for her and the children...and she says, "Nope. We take this risk together. WE determine our worth." Having a wife who is with you on stuff like this...if that's true of you, don't take it for granted!
The four principles around whom the story revolves are all in this one scene. EACH is a central piece of the story. When, in his final game (of the movie), Rod is knocked out, it is through Marci that we identify with the crisis of the movie - it is beyond money, it is about everything, about life.
Did she just say ...WE DETERMINE OUR WORTH... That is years of therapy right there...and the only thing we need to bear in mind when we leave a toxic person and toxic environment behind us FOREVER....it is not easy...but it is the only way to save our sanity...not even our life...but our sanity...
A woman who points out my race as a reason why I'm awesome? Sounds good on paper, but I'm white, so can a woman say that to me without the whole world calling her a racist? Somehow I doubt it. You need racial privilege to get away with saying that.
I only now realised, after so many years later and having revisited this scene many times b4, the emotional realism of this scene in dealing with bad news - anger, denial, acceptance, love, and hope.
The wife is right. Play out the contract. 1,700,000 for 3 years ain’t worth it. That’s only like 566k a year before the tax. The agent fees are free... so there’s that...
Imagine Dorothy telling Jerry, "You are a strong, proud, surviving, splendid white man." I wonder how that would play out with audiences. But I'm guessing that line doesn't work unless you have enough privilege to celebrate your race all you want with no backlash.
Amen my brother As a Latino I've always being into African women & Jamaican women (Black women) since Predator/AVP & MTV I hope to marry a beautiful African women & Jamaican women (Black women) & have kids with her in the future too I hope that wish comes true too
I think it was the bravest thing to say in a moment when Jerry almost loses his only client and friend. She is showing how loyal , committed, resilient and persistent Jerry was to make things happen with little resources, regardless of his situation, he was believing in himself in the worst circumstances.
Eh even if he got hurt after signing the contract, they arent guaranteed except the signing bonus. He could sign that 3 year contract, get hurt in year 1 and they cut him
@@PapaShawn70 LOL, how are you complaining about gold diggers when you have no gold to dig for? Look at you! I'd be shocked if a few pennies dropped out if someone flips you over and shakes you out. 😂😂 Go figure out the plural of "wife", then let's talk about gold diggers.
works for some careers like pro athletes...but for most , 99 percent of labor in America...you get paid what the going rate is set by management. Most people are not negotiating their salary.

good comment!
More like adam and eve where eve fucked adam over by making him eat the apple against gods word. Women 😛
Faithful Wife for sure
We all want a woman like that...problem is that they are diamonds.
This reminds me of both my parents.. in face of adversity they always say "WE" not me, not you.. I hope modern women have the same quality
Regina King just kills this scene. to me, she's one of the centerpieces of the movie
She had not age one bit

Regina King is 👑
Not since Boyz n the hood or Poetic Justice.
Rene Zollweger is the centerpiece of movie. Regina King plays same character in every movie.
Regina King has always been a great actress.
Every man needs a woman like this
Which one ?
Nah, she probably doesn't put out
@@Bold-BeautifulBoth Marcie and Dorothy
Regina went Riley Freeman as soon she read the contract 🤣
Riley wouldn't say that. That's gay
Facts 💯
Lol. I heard him instantly.
"Game recognize game Jerry, and you look-in kin-da un-fam-ILIAR right now!"
They on screamed chemistry was beautiful😢
"Jerry, tell me what to do. If you tell me to eat lima beans, I'll eat lima beans. If you tell me to be in Daddy Day Camp, I'll be in Daddy Day Camp."
I love this scene, there is nothing better then a strong woman that can show the real and still be feminine. This scene has two if them.

Watching Regina in this clip make me wanna watch the whole movie lol
You should. It’s a 90s classic.
Jerry treated Dorothy like dirt, whereas Marcee and Rod were a team couple.
Wow, tom’s the only one here with no Oscar. And at the time of the release, Renee went from the least known to winning 2 academy awards
Crazy they both started on Boys in the Hood.
I love Regina
If you have a woman like that in your corner, you are BULLETPROOF.
Which one!?

You are WINNING if you have a spouse like that
Facts 💯
Back when women & men loved each other 😔
Tell that to the current generation who think open relationship is a relationship and open marriage is a marriage.
@@bkit5 Calm down hater
@@Nirobiscloset10oh brother
Now that is the type of woman you need believes in you no matter.
Amen
I. Fell in LOVE WITH. THIS. MOVIE. ITS THE. GREATEST. MOVIE. EVER. 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
Wow Regina King acts the hell out of this scene, and is a complete and total babe 😍
She should’ve won an Oscar for this movie.
I love Regina King
Miss great movies like this
I miss the 90’s
This scene is soooooo well acting!. Damn!
One of my favorite movies when I was little :)
Im a 90s baby
All i gotta say is "SHOW ME THE MONEY SHOW ME THE MONEYYYY" 😂😂
Regina is so beautiful
Tom Cruise should have won best actor for his performance.
He should have won for A Few Good Men actually.
IMO he was much better in jerry maguire.
Or Magnolia
I only now realised, after so many years later and having revisited this scene many times b4, the emotional realism of this scene in dealing with bad news - anger, denial, acceptance, love, and hope.
I can still hear Riley and Huey
Looks like Tre didn't end up wit Brandi from boyz n the hood after all... haha
Good one...LOL
He ended up with Doughboys home girl from the BBQ
damn the gril Regina does not age.
This woman plays the part of an amazing wife in more than this movie….the Will Smith movie. I’m in.
Enemy of the State
The wife is right. Play out the contract. 1,700,000 for 3 years ain’t worth it. That’s only like 566k a year before the tax. The agent fees are free... so there’s that...
only?
If you get injured, you get zero.
@kenbaker3952 welcome to my (our) world.
Working themselves Together how lovely Supherb right here.
damn, they came a long way from that bbq in boyz in the hood....
Lol I just watched that scene before this one.

Great movie, im watching again tonight. Been long i last watched it...

I really love a great film like that.
SHOW ME THE MONEY!
U. CAN. SAY. THAT AGAIN REGINA. HIT IT OFF SHES THE BEST. IN THIS MOVIE SHE GOT. TOOO KISS CUBA GOODINGJR AS LUCKY AS SHE IS 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

Now imagine if the white girl had told Jerry that he was a "strong, proud, surviving, splendid white man." 2:41
Nice and Merry Christmas Film of 1996 and a great scene here.
Cuba gooding act the shit out of him in this movie
Agree but all five lead actors played their characters to perfection the wife the player the agent the girlfriend and the competing agent.
Speak English ! Who are you trying to impress by acting ghetto? Climb the ladder . Don’t rip the rungs out of it by talking like a fool .
1.7 million dollars in 1996 was a huge amount..
Where's the rest of the film I like to see it in it's entirety
The black woman we need 💯
Amen my brother
As a Latino
I've always being into African women & Jamaican women (Black women) since Predator/AVP & MTV
I hope to marry a beautiful African women & Jamaican women (Black women) & have kids with her in the future too
I hope that wish comes true too
Amen my brother
Both played in Boyz n the Hood.
Very cool to see their chemistry.
What was in that blue folder?
His mission statement about more commitment to clients... the one that got him fired from the agency he was at.
I swear all I hear is Riley from the boondocks 😂😂
Regina King is so wonderful.
Such a great movie
Que bonito si yo hubiera tenido una mujer así la caña 😢🎉😂😅
Love this scene, love this movie. Moral of the story: Read everything you get.

So what's the name of this movie right now cause this my first time seeing this movie right now
Lol lmao this was such a great scene
Telling strangers that your man is BROKE is about the meanest thing a white woman can say... 🤣🤣🤣
This comment is so underrated
“Broke. Broke broke broke.”
I think it was the bravest thing to say in a moment when Jerry almost loses his only client and friend. She is showing how loyal , committed, resilient and persistent Jerry was to make things happen with little resources, regardless of his situation, he was believing in himself in the worst circumstances.
White women are actually the BEST at making their partner look like an IDIOT!

Reallllllll woman Regina was in this movie

Those muffins look good!!!!!!!
Regina King was phenomenal.
When Cuba pulled Tom dayuum Cuba strong the a motherfucker
Well that was interesting
Regina King plays the same type of character in Enemy of the State. Typecasting.
You earmarked two of her movies from a vast collection and say typecasting? Oh Lord...😂
They don’t make movies like that anymore…
For Free

Those are my kind of girls.
Eh even if he got hurt after signing the contract, they arent guaranteed except the signing bonus. He could sign that 3 year contract, get hurt in year 1 and they cut him
This both aged well... and it didn't
Dang! Im going to get my strong, proud, splendid black man! 😩

This scene would be better without that hideous stone sculpture...thing in the background.

You owe more than 1.7 mill? What did you spend it on, hahahaha. Typical
This is not realistic.
How Wifes kill a players contract thinking its about them.
1. "Wives". 2. In this case, she was a lot more than just his wife. She was his partner, his manager and his support system....all in the business.
@@2EKgn16 you forgot.... GOLD DIGGER
