- Money is a commodity. Like oil or water. And that American dollar, is the best brand there is in the world. Those of us who have it. Can make more of it. By loaning it to those who dont.
Julian Beck, as banker J. J. Johnstone, Miami Vice, Prodigal Son, 1985.
Died of cancer of the stomach, two weeks before the episode aired.
Julian Beck was an amazing actor. It's too bad he didn't do more mainstream stuff. His voice is mesmerizing.
Classic scene from "Prodigal Son". Will always remember this scene with Julian Beck, but in a way he's almost telling the story of American Capitalism. "When the US sneezes everybody catches a cold!"..I guess it happened in 2008.
wow ..great post ..I remember watching this live on Friday night in 85 ..wow. The Acting holds up & the story is still relevant today ! Truly outstanding show !
That background music that starts at the :40 mark, I used to hear it all the time during the first 3 seasons. I even find myself humming that when watching modern cop shows (ex. SVU and CSI). Julian Beck is actually pretty creepy in this scene. He's saying "It's nothing personal, it's just business that you happened to get in the way of." Sometimes, those with deepest pockets are the cruelest.
"I cant touch you..I know that. Too many roadblocks, politics, favors. But you're dirty ace...and I am patient".. beautiful!!!
it's Mr. Burns!
"But you're dirty Ace.. and I'm patient" Classic
Hands down, the best scene of the entire series. Bravo!
I've seen a lot of great actors, but very few people who can act as well as Julian Beck. That guy instantly commands attention in any scene he's in. As far as I'm concerned, the stage and the screen lost an irreplaceable giant when that man passed away.
It's true, he never saw the episode. This was the most epic scene in tv history as far as I'm concerned.
Magnificent!
A perfect portrait of how the Wall St. Master of the Universe thinks of the world: in terms of his bank account.
Julian Beck was a good actor, RIP
If MV would have kept this same formula of C and T equal partnership, this show would have stayed on for atleast 10 years. But starting in the 3rd season. Tubbs screen time and swag was reduced , and the storylines were more centered more on how they affected Crockett. I love DJ, but for the shows long term success , Tubbs needed to be a central figure as well, not a background player.
Jan Hammer leaving the show didn't help things either
no doubt Tubbs was great. it shoulda stayed equal.
I think you're right. The swag was gone and instead he had the well-trimmed beard, and Crockett spent more time in therapy. What a mess.
Julian Beck is a dead ringer for Mr. Burns in The Simpson's
Hahahahhahahahh!!!
"LET ME IN!" :D
Too sad Julian Beck lost the battle against cancer...
I love this show. I watched when I was little with my father. I still watch it on DVD. I had the soundtracks in tape, then cd. I have it on my iPod
Great show this was one of my favorite episodes Miami Vice is one of the best shows period enough said
The truth is summed up beautifully here.
Beck did his thing in this scene!He broke out the chalkboard on Crockett and Tubbs on the connection between economics and crime,and he did it so beautifully that I can't spot a flaw in his argument to this very day!Kudos to you sir,for playing one of the greatest villains of the 80's !
Yeah he was on his way out while filming this episode of Miami Vice.As you can see the cancer was eating him alive. He had a calming at the same time sinister voice. R.I.p
"I can't touch you..I know that. Too many roadblocks, politics, favors. But you're dirty ace...and I am patient"... AVESOME!!!
The Prodigal Son is a fantastic episode with Pam Grier,James Russo,Gene Simmons ...
Oh my god. Incredibly awesome scene here. I may need to start watching this show.
awesome scene- one of the best I've witnessed
Perfect scene of a perfect show.
I heard he died two weeks after this was shot so yeah his body was just hanging on. Amazing as even in his state, he conveys such power in that scene, that's true acting ability. What an awesome swan song to an incredible career!
As a working journalist I've secretly always wanted to say that.
Excellent! Smithers, please escort these fine gentlemen to the door please.
Gotta admit, the first time I saw this episode, when Corckett delivered that line "And I'm patient", I was hoping to hear the drums from "Hard to Kill" when Seagal says "I'm gonna take you to the blood bank". DUN-DUN DU-DU-DUN!!!
The banker is genuinely surprised they will not flow along with the boat
I remember seeing this at the time and thinking what an amazingly creepy guy guy. Then I saw it in reruns and thought "Mr. Burns!"
This was the best TV show there ever was. There were so many actors who later went on to be big-name people it's silly. This show was a stepping stone for these actors of the time and most of them went on to be notable if not high-profile actors.
Unfortunately, most of the main crew of Miami Vice weren't so fortunate, although I don't know why. But oddly that's how the industry seems to work much of the time. I know Don Johnson certainly didn't have the movie career he hoped he would afterward.
Wow, Just today Elizabeth Warren was grilling the U.S. Treasury about laundering bank money to drug cartels and how nobody gets prosecuted for it. It made me think of this. The more things change, the more things stay the same. Now I know what they mean by that saying. Miami Vice was and still is my favorite show of all time. They were ahead of their time
I couldnt agree more.. His best characters I've seen; have been guys when you first look at you wouldnt give a 2nd thought. However, once you hear them talk for alittle while. The thought of them is kinda scary...............
Julian Beck looks a lot like mr burns in this
R.I.P Julian Beck
Jullian Beck was awesomely scary in Poltergeist 2. I really don't know that much about him but from what I've watched he is definetly a kick a** actor..... I was a Junior or Senior in H.S. when this episode ran. R.I.P. J.B. you will be missed.
Funny thing about this scene. After explaining everything, Crocket's response is, "What I want is answers." Did he not just hear everything Beck had explained about their Latin American friend's major cash crop?
Could be the best vice ever printed on tape..
Grande... questa è la verità!
The world explained in a handful of simple sentences.
he was in Poltergeist 2 the weird preacher guy "LET ME IN!" "you are all gonna dieeeee!!!!"
But your a dirty ace..... and I'm patient! Love this whole scene.
awesome one of the more creepy villians they couldn't even touch
Truth.
At 5:23 Very very good moment ..... Strong very Strong ..
Actually he had stomach Cancer. Passed away not too much longer after this was taped.
does anyone know what the name of the music is during this scene? its one of hammer's best and is used many times in the series!!
j'aime
I always say TV peaked with Miami Vice after that ......well its just S......
The guy looks like Mr Burns, simpsons.
Great scean
Just shows that to some money is everything and the only thing they even worship it to others self respect and morality and having a HEART is worth more.
It's Monty Burns.
goddam that's so good
Tubbs and Crockett have hard times running into corrupted politicians.
RIP Julian Beck
the 80's, good old days, majority of the people (as usual) did not knew nor cared were warned/explained how Banksters (intelligent greedy psychopaths) get or got what they want, at any cost, because of the system (Those of "us" who have it, can make more of it, by loaning it to those who don't), that creates money from nothing, and is in private hands (against the constitution for those who read). Today 2011, Still to many people refuse to learn or simly ignore what keeps us in debt.
First he was after Carroll Ann and now he goes after Tubbs and Crockett..go figure!! lol
The building at the beginning is the Chrysler Building, 405 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan. I just found it on google maps (by accident) and added this information to miamivice.fandom.com :))
umm...that has absolutely nothing to do with what i was talking about..
I should start a payday loan company in Las Vegas, i'll be a millionare inside of 6 months...
Amazing but he was just 60 here...fuck cancer!
Mr. Burns?
Dialog written by Miguel Pinero
Ms Brecken does not like this video.
And I'm patient
i thought the same thing.
Poltergeist!!!!!
any one doubts who runs the world?
i can see him as a evil banker,he looks like he comes from old money.. And i'm sure he had cancer when they filmed this because he died befor it aired...
Hey is that George Soros?
This was a good show, until it got popular, and all the weirdo illuminati shit started showing up in it.
