  • For Helsinki, I need someone with diplomatic skills.'' Gus calls into question the entire leadership of the CIA and decides to smash the office window before walking with a cheeky smile to the enraptured office workers.
    This scene is BRILLIANT!* One of our favourite argument scenes in any movie ever.

    the tap on the typewriter after he asked that lady how he did is such a wonderful little touch. I dont know why I love it so much

    If you read the source material, the scene is even better. Gus Stavros was a high-ranking CIA officer who wasn't an Ivy League blueblood. He supported the secretarial staff and used them as a network of informants within the CIA (and they loved him for it). So he could both get away for insulting a superior (since it was expected of him) and he would care what the secretaries thought of him insulting the snobs.

    Great scene & superb acting. Hoffman was one of the greats.

    Losing Hoffman was a tragedy. Fantastic actor and one of my favorite scenes.

    I'd like to take a moment to review the several ways in which PSH is a genius in this scene as well.

    The secretary at the end gets me every time. Great comedic touch to a tense scene.

  • @Rachel-ul8et

    For 24 years people have been trying to kill me. People who know how. Awesome line

  • @The_McD

    He steals just about every scene.

  • @cps2204

    I will NEVER grow tired of this scene.

  • @TraustiGeir

    RIP, Philip Seymour Hoffman.

    This was the 2nd funniest scene in the entire movie! The 1st was:

  • @seanmulloy854

    A top 10 scene of the past 20 years, for me. Just a masterclass here. "...and I'm never, ever sick at sea" has always gotten the biggest laugh from me. The reference, the delivery, the timing. I ripped this and put it on my iPod.

    ”For twenty four years people have tried to kill me, people who know how “.😂

  • @billmiller9145

    Thus was such a good movie, rip PSH.

  • @NicolasPare

    I love how as they are arguing, the entire office is at a stand still and everyone is staring through the window. The moment he opens the door, they all start pretending to work!

  • @SavoPaddy

    Hoffman gave us so much. What an incredible body of work he left. He was unbelievably prolific and consistently brilliant.

    I thought this was one of the best movies in 2007.. It was told well and it was based on a true story!! Always a worth the time to watch this movie again! 😃
