“Some people like driving the long way home” is a way better quote than it should be
Honestly this quote makes the scene. The delivery too. Bettany is such an underrated actor.
@@Maino88 I have been struggling to understand what the line means, can you help me out?
The point of telling the bridge story was to say “I used to contribute something meaningful.”
Paul Bethany’s character is saying “Are you sure bridges matter? (Some people like taking the long way home.)”
In a way he’s saying “Your money matters more than any of your other principles.” It was a true salesmanship to compliment his home just before delivering this line, to point out the tangibility of Money.
The comment seems to have convinced Tucci to abandon his pride/principles and take the money, as before the comment he was saying “F them” and after this scene we see he took the money.
Actually the dramatic part of that line comes from the fact that Dale (Tucci) took the long way home himself in order to get some peace of mind. When Emerson (Battany) says that line it occurs to Dale that everything he said earlier doesn't matter much, because - in the end - everyone will do whatever they want to do. That's the moment he decides to go back to the firm and take the money.
@@mmp81 it means you need time to process things, and maybe a longer approach can help you see things differently, by taking the long road home
"House looks good!" = "I know you're not done paying for that. Take the money."
more so that he sold out like the rest of them, but at least the view is good.
like a mafioso saying " your daughter looks cute. "
Eric wasn't going to change anything by not going back other than make his life more difficult.... so take the money and walk away. Principals be damned... being a martyr in a situation you have no control over is foolish. When they write the history.... you're forgotten.
@@imxploring except it would matter to him, so therefore it matters to his world. Integrity is worth more than money. Some marks don’t come off your soul you know.
@@l30URN3 I'm a firm believer in integrity but since I don't think he was going to run out and announce to the world what was going down and instead was going to sit quietly at home with his family when they unwound their MBS position there wasn't any difference if he sat at the office and insured his family's financial future. He never planned on being a martyr for his beliefs so NOT going back for the day to be sure he received what he was already entitled to as part of his separation was the right move. He didn't sell out. Had he planned to go public and only agreed to go back when threatened with them withholding his severance package I'd feel differently.
I love this movie. No big sets, no CGI, no rousing soundtrack, no fancy costumes, just pure, unadulterated acting and storytelling. Reminds me of 12 Angry Men.
How many times is this same comment gonna be recycled?
I just learned that this movie costed 3.5 million dollars to make and was made in 17 days. OUTSTANDING!
Or glen gary
My thoughts exactly 👍

My dad worked for Bendix in the Aerospace division. He does this kind of stuff with numbers. No pause to calculate, no look up at the ceiling, he just rips them off like he is reading them. Its freaking amazing.
My father was an electrical engineer for Bendix too [Amphenol] He retired at 50!!!!
@@darrenmongardi5509My dad was also an electrical engineer, at Heathrow Airport. And I'll love him forever. Electrical engineers are the best. Full stop.
“You know I created a super soldier once.”
rencrow he didn’t handle being passed over for that promotion very well....this is where he ended up......
"You know I was a robotics engineer by trade, built a giant robot that fought other robots."
You know I was once the smarmy host of the most watched show in Panem! Hahaha!
I understood that reference
"You know I organized the Holocaust once."
Translation: "Back when I worked a job that earned way less money, I built real things that made real, concrete contributions to the world. Look at me NOW."
the pay was considerably better.
@@bs27v1b peter: the money here is considerable more attractive
If people only understood the importance of infrastructure.
Ah yes, Hollywood's understanding of which work is truly glamorous. What we need is a bunch of people building real things! Also known as ... a primary market with no secondary services? Like what's common in developing countries? Okay ...
"Some people like driving the long way home"
Translation - "Don't think you're a better person because you did that. Those people whose lives you made better don't care about you. The world is cruel and selfish. Your benevolence means nothing. Stop fooling yourself, just come with me and take the money."
It was his last job for which he could be proud. So it's not about the bridge, it's about the fact that he cannot recall any later achievement for which he could be proud of... So bitter.
Those of us who studied physics / engineering and ended up in the finance industry pre credit crunch really appreciate this scene.
Just like those of who dig ditches in the ground appreciate the Spacey scene
@@vhseshproductions2378 I just can't handle your comment hahaha
Those of us who studied physics and engineering should know better than to end up in the finance industry unless... We are working for ourselves, not on somebody else's firm... And even in those terms just to earn enough money to return to engineering, building our own rockets :D :D :D
@@joaobranco2164 Rockets are nothing but a costly spectacle, the elevator is the real prize.
I am so glad that I left finance, now I have the pleasure to enjoy PDE, ODE and play with eigen values again.
All the Heavy Hitters (Kevin Spacey, Jeremy Irons, Demi Moore) were great in the movie, but the movie was kept together by Paul Bettany, underrated AF.......!!
Imo demi Moore's acting was garbage in this movie.
Paul Bethany annoying af.
Demi Moore looked like she'd smoked meth between each take
Bettany was also brilliant as that creepy Religious Fanatic Hitman in "The DaVinci Code."
Dude how could you not mention Simon Baker that guy is phenomenal
The only two characters you actually get a background on in regards to career are Eric and Peter, and both of them come from outside of finance: Eric was an engineer, Peter was a rocket scientist. And it is because of these two that the situation was unfolded and found out.
I like that the movie establishes the golden rule of accountability: it takes somebody from outside the establishment to recognise what is going wrong.
Point of scene: Engineering bridges = tangible. Treating currency as a commodity = intangible. 22 years later = humanity is still benefiting from something tangible (bridges) whilst on the verge of suffering a blowback from illusory (intangible) financial system.
Yeah, and that bridge was paid for with money from our financial system.
The point of this scene was basically to show that an engineer who built bridges had to move to Wall Street to make money. Why should a Wall Street executive make more money than a guy who builds a bridge people use every day?
No it wasn't. The city sells Bonds to pay for bridges and roads. As well they tax gas sales to pay for them.
Take a course in economics. As that Cereal Box is not cutting it...
Master Chief 00117 You need to lay off the pipe. The point of this scene was to emphasize that he was an engineer BY TRADE who built bridges and ended up on Wall Street. He never went to school to build intangible things like what he’s doing in his current job. After all those years, the bridge he built was still in use...tangible and STILL providing the value for which it was built. His current job from which he was fired and making a lot of money still doesn’t provide the value of that bridge.
Replying to Skill Collector. Short Bus Rider.. Take reading comprehension first...
Thank You
I live in new Martinsville. Can confirm the Moundsville bridge is awesome
Lmao that’s awesome
I just looked it up in Google maps and it's true!!!
Is the old factory near the bridge still producing anything?
@@davecom3 not sure. Possibly a concrete plant now.
Thanks for that. Top comment, ought to be.
One of the most rewarding scenes of this movie... to get to hear him tell out all those numbers and the value that means... contrasted with spending all that time trying to build financial bridges that collapsed in on itself. He regrets going into that business. Being an engineer - a bridge builder was far more rewarding to him. That was his most treasured legacy. And he knows it.
Bettany's character tells it like it is. He's a scumbag and he'll take the money and let the market figure out the damage he is causing.
💯💪
They're a single investment firm, they just buy and sell around market prices. To think they even make a dent (the damage you mention) in the US housing market is laughable, they're just another cog in the machine. At best them selling everything is only going to make their constituents take a long close look at the numbers as well. Lets not forget that the banks giving out loans didn't have a gun to someone's head; it was working class adults that couldn't pay their monthly rent, were greedy and//or didn't do the math on their interest rates and just signed on the dotted line who caused the crash. The ones that actually _do_ run into hard times and have to default are always there, in both the peaks and the valleys.
If you didn't mention his name, I won't even realize he's the Vision!
Ohh that's why he rambles on with that bridge story
It is the job of the banks to profit from over/under valued assets.
Causing
A. Profits for banks
B. "True" price of said assets as close as possible at all times.
Win-win for all
So the main question here is. What policies/culture led to overvalued housing prices?
Well many point fingers, but an economist I read about blamed it on affordable housing. Encouraging banks to give loans to high-risk people in the name of affordable housing. And to sweeten the deal (cuz no bank would shoot themselves in the foot) is that the housing loan is almost 100% secured/guaranteed despite high-risk.
This is the incentive created that caused the market crash. Not lending, not trading, not capitalism. But bureaucratic policies that doesn't align with reality.
Stanley Tucci. Literally I've never seen anything he has been in where he isn't stealing the show.
Lucky number slevin is where he caught my eye great actor
My first time Really paying attention to him was in the movie called "The Lovely Bones" where he played a Mr. Harvey. Such a hated character, which means he is a great actor
No he didn’t. He rambled off a bunch of numbers which took up all the screen time.
Stanley Tucci and Gary Old man. Consummate professional actors no matter what they're in. Have they done any films together?
@@plumeria66 Clearly you don't have a clue about good acting....
I love the way Tucci reacts when the car pulls up. If it were mafia-style organised crime, his fear would be palpable. But it's not. Its organised criminal behaviour which never gets violent and never results in the bastards going to jail because its conducted under the guise of 'civilised' behaviour. So instead of getting scared, Tucci gets irritated.
If
Nothing going on here is criminal.
And, just just to point out for clarity, he did go with the car, he did take the money. Which is a good thing. Never let wounded pride make your decisions for you.
@@M0rmagil Spoken like a true trickle downer
@@neilpemberton5523 If you actually were of the working class, you'd know that you don't refuse money, specially when you're being laid off.
@@neilpemberton5523 wealth is created in many ways. Getting paid a million dollars just to sit in a room for 12 or so hours seems a bit more substantial than a trickle.
Just as a point of curiosity, how do you think wealth is created? I have my expectations, but I’ll let you tell me.
I honestly don't know what interpretation I like more: that he can do math like that on the fly (yes I know he does it again later but bear with me), or that his conscience has been so haunted by his lack of meaningful impact on the world that he's memorized those numbers like the back of his hand because he's thought about them every. single. day.
I think it’s a little of both.
"Some people like driving the long way home" alludes to the fact that even though they know that listening to Eric - like taking the bridge that he built - would've saved them a lot of trouble, they still chose the old road and ended up exactly where they would've in the first case (offloading of the entire portfolio), just with a lot more time and fuel wasted.
That's an excellent analysis.
One thing I love about this scene is that it could've been dull exposition telling us he's good with numbers. Instead we got this beautiful scene.
“Some people like to take the long way home”
He just pissed all over his calculations
No, he's saying don't beat yourself up for making a bunch of money on intangible work because not everybody is truly enjoying the benefits of your tangible work.
If I was Tuld, I would offer Dale his job back with an improved salary.
The firm needs people like him.
He already has a much cheaper, younger replacement.
And once you fire a senior employee, that bridge is destroyed. Both parties can't trust each other.
@@AL-si4eo Fair point.
@@AL-si4eo bridge is destroyed.... pun intended?
Nah lunch is for wimps
There's a million Dale's in the world. Just to save face, they wouldn't bring him back.

It took an engineer to see what was coming, that's what impressed me the most about this movie.
+Isidro Garcia Wall Street is filled with engineers, only doing the work because of the big bucks.
An engineer and a Rocket Scientist
Off course it took an engineer to see it. I heard a quote once -" Why should a financial engineer (banker) paid more than a real engineer. A real engineer built bridges, roads and civilisation, A financial engineer just build dreams and when those dreams break it's the common man who pays for it".
For some reason it fits nicely for this scene.
sumit rana bro I work with engineers. Building bridges. As a matter of fact I own a company that builds Bridges.
(Small ones and Rarely) usually just buildings, roads ect. There’s nothing special about engineers just like there’s nothing special about lawyers. I’d say one out of every couple hundred engineers could do the math this guy did as fast as he did it in this video.
ⵔⵓⴽⴰⵜⴽⴰⵜ 99 percent of engineers only do the work becuase of the money. You think people would do it if it paid like McDonald’s.
"Some people like driving the long way home"
Some people don't appreciate the gifts given to them
There's a sucker born every minute; every trade has a buyer and a seller
you spend a lot of time and effort trying to make people's lives better, only to discover you were never really helping them to begin with. The point being he was the risk management guy and had spent a lot of effort trying to keep the company out of trouble, and in the end wasn't appreciated for it. Will's comment was, essentially, keeping the company out of trouble was never what the company wanted. they were making a crap-ton of money getting INTO trouble. You built a bridge some people didn't really want. Eric saw the creation of the bridge as something good he did, and he misses that. Rose colored glasses. You do a job, you get compensated for it. any other meaning or feelings you attach to it are on you, and are probably a self-lie to some degree.
This scene about building bridges and Sam's response to Tuld later about at least having the holes in the earth to show for being a ditch digger illustrate how these guys didn't actually PRODUCE anything they can point to or hold and their regrets in that fact.
Finance people can be absolutely critical in building tangible stuff, channeling money where it creates value. That, however, is not the approach of the largest American (or Western European) banks. This is a global disaster, in itself.
@@koborkutya7338 agreed, value is created by directing funds to projects and companies that create tangible assets and value. The problem arises when incentives are unaligned and greed become a contagion
This was one hell of a difficult monologue to memorize. It also obliquely shows how an incredibly left brained engineer got into the equally left brained game of swizzling money around. As Sullivan the rocket scientist says, “It’s all just numbers.”
I bet there was a giant cue card just off camera with all the numbers written on it. That’s why he looked up to the same direction every time he got to the part of his monologue where he had to say one of them.
@@The93Vector If so, whoever wrote it was off by a factor of 10 on the last two numbers.
It wasn't done in one take. Lots of little cuts. He basically says 1-2 lines at a time. Probably just learns them then 10 seconds later says them. It's common for scenes like this for the exact reason you'd imagine.
Good scene though. @@The93Vector
I’m an engineer. I’ve designed bridges. I’ve never met an engineer who could do math like that in their head. The design engineers never know that sort of planning level data. The planners know that stuff. The engineers design the details. The construction folks build it. But I love the speech anyway.
Yeah. I'm an undergrad studying mechanical engineering. I find it a little annoying that someone might watch this movie and walk away thinking that engineering is all about lightning-fast mental arithmetic. That said, I know there are some people out there who really can do mental arithmetic like that, and it's totally possible that one of them might end up in engineering. Besides, it is a great speech, like you said.
He was head of risk management of that trading company means he had been working on numbers for long time. So im not suprised if he can do math like that.
Structural engineer who designs the structural elements. vs. the transportation engineering who does the calculations for the cost/benefit of the bridge in terms of hours saved / cost of making the bridge. It's an interdisciplinary topic.
So if for example you're a construction manager for a contractor company that built bridge, you would say that you built that bridge when reminiscing about it. You tell these impressive numbers about hours saved to the funding agency whenever you want to pitch the idea of this new bridge. But you didn't calculate any of those details yourself, you had a bunch of structural & transportation engineers who did all of the planning and design.
Dej1369 Fair enough. You hit the nail on the head! “I built a bridge” is romanticized. He really should have said: “I was a junior engineer on a bridge project with 100 other people”. Still, a great speech and an awesome film.
This scene is so real bunch of my classmates in my ME degree program went into finance after graduation I stayed in traditional engineering and still am in aerospace. Those guys make way more money than me both that I’m doing bad in but for some of those guys and girls the most proudest accomplishment was the traditional engineering projects and problems they solved during academia or in there internships with engineering firms. I’m not saying wether it’s a good or bad thing to go into finance but the ability to build and work on a project where you can see the fruits of your labor still positively affecting people can outweigh made up figures and values idk I love this movie
I mean. That's why I went into engineering. My goal was/is to build things people will use. I get satisfaction out of that. I don't think that change no matter how much money I earn.
The value of the financial industry is explained in the scene in the car when Will Emerson tells Seth that this is all about financing people's lifestyle aspirations (not to mention everything else). It's not bridges, it's arguably more than bridges. It even pays for the bridges...
"Some people just like driving long way home" That line hits pretty hard when you are a new driver.
Stanley Tucci is a National Treasure. He's phenomenal in everything he's in. Watch THE IMPOSTORS and UNDERCOVER BLUES sometime, a couple of underrated films that he is pants-wettingly funny in.
As an engineer, I can definitely see the appeal of working in finance. We love working with numbers, and finance generally pays much better than engineering jobs.
As an architect, I wouldn't trade my job for 5x my salary to work in jobs to produce spreadsheets and intangible assets. I honestly rather die broke in a public toilet like Louis Khan than be Warren Buffet with all his billions.
Better be good money if I'm ever going to sell my soul.
@@jimmysass no you wouldn't. Until you've experienced crippling abject poverty and been on the point od death because of it, youwill never be able say that you're soke noble altruistic person full of integrity by claiming that given the option of abject crippling poverty driving you to death or having billions, that you'd pick the former.
@@bothi00 Louis Kahn wasn't starving nor was he in crippling poverty.... he was just broke and so was his firm(in debt at the time of his death). I have no idea why you would even think this altruistic , Kahn died doing something he loves and building something tangible because it leaves a legacy can be considered even selfish.
The greatest thing about living in a first world country - is the knowledge you wont starve to death. And if you have that knowledge and yet you still wish to chase the intangible dollar for fulfilment, then that's your choice.
In conclusion, if you present me the life of Kahn vs Buffet. I'll take Kahn any day - although I can understand why people like you wont.
@@jimmysass you realise many, many, MANY peoplw in first world countries, notably the US and the UK, do in fact and indeed starve to death, right?
I love this scene. Just brilliant.
some people like driving long way
home. beyond that, also true.
The former, one of the other other risk management guys in his department did his thesis on rocket propolsion.
The guy he is talking to, his direct supervisor, had a monalogue earlier in the movie about how the finance industry does the dirty work that allows for the modern debt centric consumption system to exisit, and how the plebs don't understand or appreciate what they do.
And at the end of the movie the CEO of the company has a monlogue about how money is just made up so we don't have to kill each other to get something to eat.
TL/DR The inherent value of the finance industry is one of the key themes of this movie. I don't think the movie comes down one way or another on the question, instead choosing to let the viewer decide.
Personally I think the point is that the finance industry was part of the economy because it facilitated what needed to happen in the rest of the economy, now is just become an industry in and of itself which is so big that the economy needs to think about it instead of its thinking about the economy.
I like driving the long way home. It offers a more scenic view. That and it prolongs my arrival.
sometimes I do that to
Stanley's last two numbers are off by a factor or 10. It should've been 5,590,200 days and 15,315 years saved.
i was really only scrolling down the comment section to find the first nerd to checked the calculations :)
@@koborkutya7338 That'd be me.
It's amazing how one person could build such a large bridge all alone!
pay tribute to the construction workers
Great job missing the point.
@@Highley1958 is it?
Or is it that most people's egos put them in the centre of all things happening and they themselves are missing the point?
I'm an engineer and I was an engineer in planning, amongst other things, a bridge, a museum, and an exhibition hall, visited by thousands each month. I would never in a thousand years say "I built a museum/bridge/exhibition hall once"
@@Highley1958 Irony obviously isn't your strong point...
You might like "A worker reads history" by Bertholt Brecht if you don't know it already.
Stanley Tucci's best Rainman impression.
That is how an engineer thinks too. Always calculating solutions.
Tucci: *starts his monologue about building the bridge*
Bettany: I request elaboration.
Stanley Tucci is brilliant in this scene
There really is a bridge that fits this description. It’s Ohio state rd 872 that crosses the Ohio River between Moundsville, WV and Dilles Bottom Rd in Ohio. It’s called the State rd 2 spur on the WV side. It’s really not much of a bridge, just a typical multi-lane highway bridge, of which there are thousands throughout America. It certainly doesn’t merit a name like “George Washington” or “Golden Gate”, but there really is a bridge…and right where he says it is.
I drive the actual bridge he's referring to all the time. I live in the Moundsville area. My dad remembers when the bridge was being built. It's a fairly small community, so anytime we're shown or referenced in shows and movies is pretty cool.
A few other titles Moundsville is in (mostly for our penitentiary) include:
Fool's parade
Castle rock (our penitentiary is in it)
Ghost Adventures
Fallout 76
American Pickers
There's others, but i can't think of their names.
If I watch something and Stanley Tucci comes on set, I lean back, put my feet up and pour a drink. I just know it's going to be good.
Won't you miss some of his performance if you're pouring yourself a drink?
Pause.... Lol.... Play.... Enjoy!
Rich Eisen talks about remote drop movies. You stop clicking and enjoy. I have to agree that Tucci is a remote drop actor.
The thing is having the bridge offers both options but I doubt more would prefer the long way.
He was brilliant as the attorney Garabedian in Spotlight. Same here.
Anyone notice that when he says numbers, he looks in a particular direction? I think that he was ok with the lines, but he had the numbers on a que card.. Gotta do what you gotta do.. 😉
Yeah definitely but from my own experience and from seeing others, I think when you do math like that you gotta kind of look away to think to yourself
Actually it's a very common tick to look in one direction when remembering something and in the opposite when making something up.
And this is why i spent all my career on Construction & Engineering : our job has meaning , heck it is one of the major thing a civilisation has to do for evolving . Big bucks may feed your bank account but meaning feed your heart .
Whenever he’s saying numbers, he’s looking in a specific direction.. That means they were on Cue Cards, because frankly, numbers like that are hard to memorize, especially if you have time constraints.. ;-)
Nah the actor is just conveniently a math savant so it made this scene very easy n doable
@@abdicolestudios8899 Exactly! He just stares directly at some non-specific direction to "get in the zone".
@@magtovi yup! Also if his eyes seem to be scanning left to right or he squints, it’s just a natural reaction of doing such complex calculations
Either he did mental calculation or memorized those numbers, both are incredible, as for Tucci, it was very remarkable too even if there was the number written in front of him.
What is scary is that there are people who can do those calculations in their head just that quick. Sometimes I hate them sometimes times I’m glad they are here.
the last two numbers are wrong. It's 5 million, 590 thousand, 2 hundred days saved, which equals 15 thousand 3 hundred 16 years.

What a great movie. I missed so much of the subtlety and meanings of these scenes until I read the comments.
Very true. Rarely do we see comments that are so enlightening!!
"I created the super soldier serum and they fired me"
Vision: Be smart...
Stanley Tucci is for sure reading off a cue card when he's quoting those numbers
Sure, so used to Marlon Brando with some of his lines, still, he is a hell of an actor.
....because memorising a few numbers is harder than actual lines?
You think Superman is actually flying in a movie?
@@nardinit Actually yes. Memorizing complex math statements is harder for a person to do than just speaking some lines in English. It's because of all the pausing to say the "millions", "thousands", "hundred" denominators in the digits. It breaks up the natural speaking pattern. And words are directly associable with images and events in our brains, a number is an abstract thing.
@@CrashB111 True, but these aren't complex math statements. It's less tgat 10 numbers. Even non-actors could memorize that pretty easily
My favourite scene of one of the best movies in years. The acting is superb and a little bit of a look behind what these scum bankers actually got away with.
He went from "I build bridges" to "I got a bridge to sell ya"
"Don't beat yourself up too much about this stuff."
Yesterday: " It's not your problem anymore."
Never watched the whole film but really enjoy this clips
And working from home saves 5x that.
luved the end quote
He is a walking computer......too good with numbers
So weird hearing Vision swear, and seeing Cap’s creator be depressed instead of jovial. Lol
I get the point he's making (that he once created something that was concretely useful to people, even if it made him far less money than his work on Wall Street). But there's a logical fallacy in his numbers. Not everyone who used the bridge connecting Dilles Bottom and Moundsville would've otherwise been traveling the long way between Wheeling and New Martinsville.
By significantly cutting the amount of time needed to get from Point A to Point B, you get people to make the trip who otherwise wouldn't have bothered, in much the same way that cutting the price of a product attracts new buyers.
The writing and acting are so superior you don't even know the story line to appreciate these clips.
Stanley Tucci is amazing in this film
Great scene however the calculation is slightly off, it should be 5,590,200 days or 15,315 years which is even more impressive.
One of the best tales told
What a great and memorable scene.
Okay, no problems with the acting, dialogue, or the obvious fact that Tucci, the consummate actor, needed to read the figures off of a cue card (looking stage-right each time). But the continuity was a little rough as the actors positions were not smoothly transitioned at each switch from one camera view to the next. You can tell several takes were cobbled together to get the complete scene. Not criticizing, just making an observation.
Awesome guy. Met him once in Boston
"Some people like taking the long way home"
You can just see him read the numbers from a placard lmao
Sam got to the point much quicker on the exact same lament - at least there would be holes in the ground. Although Stanley Tucci was stellar as always.
Love how every smart person in that movie (i.e. who finds the truth) is actually an engineer
This is a great scene.
Stanley Tucci is a great actor.
He should have worked out the number of statistical deaths per mile of highway driven, and said his bridge likely saved that many lives.
He's reading a cue card.
that was carmello pulling up at the end lol
The house looks nice comment , at the end ALWAYS hits me. ALWAYS. :-(
I randomly ran into a clip from this movie on tiktok, I can’t believe I missed out on it when it was released in theatres years ago, this is one hell of a cast!!!!😱
thats right, i like like the long drive to work and the half an hour drive home. its relaxing at times. lol
One can note that each time when telling a number, Tucci looks at exactly one point. That's cause he is reading it, you can see the reflection of the whiteboard in his eyes.
If Eric Dale was Peter Sullivan's boss, why wasn't Sarah Robertson Eric's boss? They are both Risk Assessors.
Every floor has its own hierarchy.
Please please could the end be a little louder🤯??!! Are you editing on a cellphone
Eric took his as back to the office
Every time I cross a bridge, I think of this scene. And I marvel at the engineering.
Bettany absolutely slayed this role.
You didn't build it boy, you just were around when it happened
Imagine presenting mathematical analysis to Vision.
This scene sounds so much like a mafia insider talk.
I get the point!...... Yes, you got fired, but don't let your ego get in the way. 8 more hours of being in the office will save you a LOT of financial trouble from this FIRM later on.
In a single monologue he convinces Will that he is really good at adding up. Like, really really good. And if he thinks that the corrected model is right, Will should as well
Great scene after great scene in this movie!
This quote establishes that Dale is smart and was really onto something and that an extremely capable employee was pet go
I hope some of the real life engineers, architects and construction workers that built the Moundsville bridge watched this scene. Some recognition is always nice.
Love this scene. My parents were finance people by profession. In my family, I was the only person to choose the BSc route (microbiology and biochemistry). I'm glad that my parents taught me the practical skills necessary to run and operate a business long-term, but I'll forever be greatfull that I chose to stick with the sciences. 32 years later I'm a shareholder in 2 companies; a farm and a software development company (long story short, took a computer science 101 course in varsity, and making websites was a non-capital intensive way of generating money to start the farming project). I love that my job is feeding people, I do it gladly. I want my life to add value to those around me, after all, they gave me so much already to reach this point. I went to a government funded school, so several people out there's taxes helped me get to where I am today. Only seems fair to give it back.
