Hoffman was such a fantastic and incredibly versatile actor. His death is only, tragically, another notch in a belt consisting of dozens of enormously talented actors who fell victim to the demon that is alcohol and drug addiction. He will be missed.
"blind guy," calls attention to it every fucking day, has the suicides and drug over deaths to back it. Stupid liars like you come along, Nicer, and make shit up.
No matter how rich, Willis Sr. is a failed father. Not only he fails to properly educate his son but he watches with a severe gaze how Willis Jr. is torn apart and humiliated in front of all his friends and peers because he has not learned how to stand up for himself. In real life George would hate his father forever.
@@nicolaeionescu6538 , Pacino's Mr. Slade admitted that he was a liar several times in the movie. He didn't care about that, since he believed that what made a real man and a real leader was to never be a snitch. Well, I think that his even bigger point in his whole tirade to Mr. Trask was not to ever fold under pressure. Mr. Trask was trying to make Charlie fold by pushing him to give up the names of who pulled the stunt which damaged his car, but Charlie refused to, he stood strong against that pressure and wouldn't fold
@@tommym321, It's possible that Charlie might have told Frank what his parents' first names were. However, Frank definitely improvised the "Larry and Franny Simms...." Charlie told Frank early on that his Mom and Step-Dad ran a convenient store. Later, when returning to New Hampshire after being in New York City over the weekend, Charlie admits to Frank that his father left the family and that he did not get along well with his step-dad.
I like this scene. They just cant accept in public what they did, they are always hiding, and the director (who is corrupted, and threatens, blackmails and tried to buy Charly) knows that what he ve done is not right, not only because its outside the law, but also because he knows the kid is innocent, because he is the honest guy, the right young student and he had a future, he sure had.
"Why don't you ask Charlie, he was a bit closer." DAMN! The way he says it while smirking. Phillip Seymor Hoffman character is such an asshole, yet I admire his acting ability. He played it so well that it makes you hate his character. That's what great acting is all about. This was the first movie I ever saw him in and it made me follow his work and watched his movies.
What a superb acting performance by the late Phillip Seymour Hoffman ? In this particular movie, he played as a spoiled brat who hide behind his daddy's pocket .
God Phillip Seymour Hoffman's portrayal as Georg Willis Jr., was so spot on. They had it in for Charlie because he was a Scholarship Student and they weren't. George was such a Backstabber. I've known people like that. My Cousin got me in big trouble for something I didn't do, I was accused of telling on them because they went someplace they weren't supposed to go to I was the only one who knew it was later discovered that My Aunt knew and told not me. Also Mr. Trask was very bad. He tried to Bribe Charlie but he couldn't,. If it were discovered or even asked about it he would have gotten into big trouble. Looking Back if he had lived, Phillip Seymour Hoffman would have been perfect to have played Lou Pearlman (The Boy Band Impressario) who as you know launched the Careers of The Backstreet Boys and N'Sync.
0:35 I love this moment. when george willis senior asks if he asks for him or for his son, charlie looks at frank and he agrees as if to say: "my theory has been confirmed"
In the hotel scene, Frank strongly suggests George Willis' name might imply his legal name is George Willis Jr. A quick explanation: Charlie made a phone call and asked for him by name but didn't say "Junior." Frank said "The name's George Willis?" "Yes sir" "Hmm, that would make his FATHER George Willis SENIOR." Then the trial started and senior was confused when their name came up. I started laughing because Frank was right!
You gotta like they way Hoffman used the "didn't have my contact lens on" defense so he can avoid implicating his three friends and get out of that scot free
Literally ignorant and cowardly. Suicide is a coward's way. Having to be convinced of that is wimpy. LIfe is a struggle ending in death. If you are not willing to struggle, you are a coward. It takes nothing to die.
When I first saw this movie (18 or so) I thought George was just an affable idiot. Seeing this movie many years later, I realized he's not. But that's the front he puts up when it serves him: he's actually just as conniving and devious as Havemeyer, maybe even more so.
The librarian saw them near the site and time of the incident and reported that to the dean. So the dean questioned if they saw something and new Charlie was lying.
It'd be lame, but most schools aren't under obligation to abide by reasonable doubt. They can expel people over whatever, as long as the decision is made via committee. Student unions might take issue with it, but at the end of the day, it's all at the discretion of the school.
In a society of honor, only the honorable will take responsibility for their behavior. Then those who did the act did not speak up, no honor was owed to them. I owe no criminal any loyalty, much less one who lets others take the rap for them. If honor had existed in that institution, those culpable would admit it. They have no honor and you have no duty to protect them. They have no loyalty and you have no duty to be loyal to them.
@@Hithere-ek4qt In reality, they were not honorable, regardless of how you think it "sounds." If you do not take responsibility for your actions you are dishonorable. You sociopathic if not psychopathic .
Great movie - Pacino rips it. Hoffman was brilliant and such a loss. James Rebhorn reminds me of Nurse Ratched in One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest for some reason. Probably sly evil.
James Reborn was a great actor. He played Bradley Raines on "Guiding Light" and he played a real bastard who drank, beat his wife, and raped his stepdaughter. I loved to hate the characters he played, but the actor was great.
@@steveconn OK Boomer exists because of old fucks too ignorant for this world acting like petulant children. That you are offended by its existence tells me you may match that criteria.
Boy was George terrified. You just knew he "Sang" like a Canary when his Father questioned him. Those Three got off too easy as far as I'm concerned. If I were the Fathers of Those Boys, I would cut them off, make them do some volunteer work and see just how cushy they have it, also since they are Seniors after this prank and what they did got out to Schools most notably Harvard they wouldn't be accepted.
Two other "Sad & Sick" Father/Son Scenes on TV and a Movie was in School Ties with Matt Damon's Character Charles Dillon has a very challenging day. He sees Big Brother Grayson who is an Alumni at St. Matthews now a Harvard Hot Shot get glory and recognition. David Greene The Scholarship Boy wins the School The Homecoming Game, then at Dinner his Father tries to tell him he's just as good but deep down his Father knows he isn't. Even Dillon admitted that if he hadn't had the family ties and contacts nobody would care who he was. Then on Mad Men, Pete Campbell a 26 Year Old Up and coming Advertising Man asks for an advance on his Trust Fund. His Father doesn't give it to him, and it wasn't until much later did he and his Brother discover that the Family was Broke. He couldn't understand why his parents were willing to settle when his brother was in a DUI (it was the 1960's mind you), but not him.
He saw Jimmy Jamerson, Trent Potter, & Harry Havemeyer (The Leader) fix it that Mr. Trask's Jaguar would be Whitewashed. He didn't "tell" and Mr. Trask at first bribed him by saying that he'd use his Influence to get Charlie a Full Scholarship at Harvard living in The Legendary Cambridge Dorm. He then threatened Charlie with expulsion if he didn't tell. Those Four Punks would have let poor Charlie take the blame and leave School in disgrace. Did you know that there was a Bass Player named James Jamerson who was a legendary Motown Funk Brother in the 1960's whose last achievement was playing on Marvin Gaye's What's Going On. Sadly enough he died in the 1980's due to liver disease due to heavy drinking.
well I supose that during evening hours and scotopic vision well properties its hard to get a visual identification sir. untravelled sight hey? just tell them what I have to say charlie
Soon as he got caught he ratted us out he ratted everyone out.. But I know where he is.. Would you have a problem going with Anthony down to Florida and taking care of it???.. That way they got nothin. (Oh Sorry, wrong movie)

You'd best remember, kid, I'm embarrassed by you.

Really nice person. I met him in a New York bar and he was gracious to a total stranger.
He was AWESOME in Doubt too
More like Phillip See More Heroin.
The scent of a woman should be shown on UA-cam free it's a fantastic movie it should be available to all of us retired people
Watch Hoffman in "Charlie Wilson's war. A perfect performance.
Cut short of the Greatest part of the movie!!!!!!
Hoffman amazing actor great loss..
RIP Phillip Seymour Hoffman (George Willis Jr.), and James Rebhorn (Mr. Trask)

The same attorney who put Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer in prison! HOO ah!
Also, the soup nazi did not look like al pacino from scent of a woman
How could they expel him over this, they can't prove he saw the perpetrators.
Arse Robinson maybe Mr Trask recognized the voice spoken thru the speaker and Mr Willis was at the Library that night seen by the teacher.
Because the script demands it...
The librarian saw them near the site and time of the incident and reported that to the dean. So the dean questioned if they saw something and new Charlie was lying.

Yeeees . . . DEFINITIVELY . Haven't ya heard ???? Honor is DEYAHD.

Your gonna reward George and destroy Charlie lol... Everytime i argue with my boys i always say that as a metaphor lolll whateve lov this show
Stop fencing with me, Mr Willis! Lol
