I see a lot of people saying De Niro is trying too hard in this scene to keep up with Nicholson. That’s literally the point of the scene. That’s De Niro’s character in the film. Kazan worked with De Niro on shaking his laid back presence and to speak more like an intellectual. He said De Niro was a New York street kid and he wanted him to to be a bit more uptight for the role. So what you’re seeing here is exactly what they were trying to achieve.

@@nsasupporter7557 yeah they’re both great, but I always preferred Nicholson over De Niro. There’s something about Jack Nicholson, whenever he’s on screen he just commands every second.
this scene doesn't prove anything about who is the more skilled actor, the role simply fits Nicholson better but they are different actors different people, no actor is good enough to play everything. I don't see Nicholson playing Jake LaMotta or Vito Corleone and I don't see De Niro playing Jake Gittes or Jack Torrance.
@ Maybe in fits but on the whole it wouldn’t work. La Motta is a fleshed out human being and his depth and sympathy in the film is organic to De Niro’s performance and talents. Nicholson plays caricatures and makes visceral impressions, that’s why he excels here in a single scene more than De Niro.

Funny thing is, so much pride and alpha-bull rivalry between these 2 giants, they really don't have to do anything in the scene except just cautiously circle around each other with their eyes.
I think its an irony that this film is directed by Elia Kazan and one of the most famous dialogue De Niro ever said on screen is " Never rat on your friends and always keep your mouth shut".
To those saying Nicholson outshined de Niro in this scene, you have to understand they're doing what their characters are supposed to do..

De Niro is playing the character that is supposed to be outshined by Nicholson's character in this particular scene..

Like everyone loves the hannibal lector performance but that dude was creepy as fuck, the furthest thing from "charismatic". Anyway, I just think Jack is much better than Deniro in everything, and it has nothing to do with the characters they happen to be playing. And bro, they literally give out awards for best actor, everything is a competition in a way. Some actors die broke, some die in literal palaces, you're really going to sit there and try and push some naive notion that actors don't "compete" with one another? Tell that to all the actors who were thrown to the side due to not possessing sufficient talent. Anywho, agree with your other points tho, have a nice day.
People don't get that De Niro was channeling Irving Thalberg, on which the Stahr character is based. That's very similar to how Thalberg talked/sounded.
