- A sad scene from the 1994 Star Trek movie Star Trek Generations which is beautifully acted by Patrick Stewart at 1:13 and 2:00. In the scene a Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) is sitting alone in his quarters looking at photos of his brother Robert and his nephew Rene. A concerned Counselor Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis) enters and Captain Jean Luc Picard begins talking about Robert and Rene and breaks down crying and Picard tells Troi that he received distressing news from Earth that Robert and Rene have died and were killed in a fire and Captain Picard thinks about all the things in life Rene will never grow up and experience and reflects on the previous generation of Picards and what they achieved and acknowledges that he is now the last Picard. But, Picard and Troi's heart-to-heart conversation is interrupted when they witness the Amargosa star exploding.
Patrick Stewart really is a world class actor. I knew it before, but this scene reaffirms it, along with the rage from First Contact.
Loved first contact. I felt that rage. Loved that explosion
"The line must be drawn he'ah!!!" He's so good
I love how their relationship is such that Picard allows himself to be vulnerable in front of her. That level of trust was earned over years of sacrifice, service and friendship along with unwavering trust in her confidentiality. Riker also often confides in Deanna, but with him, he only lets his guard down as much as he does because of their prior romantic/emotional relationship. Even then, he'd never cry in front of her (or anyone) at this stage of his life. I think it's a result of Picard's greater wisdom and experience with age that he recognizes even tough guys can cry.
Have you noticed how the "worst" Star Trek movies have the best scenes showing human interaction?
No. This movie is quite good actually.
@@nebulous6660 ikr I’ve never actually understood why it’s considered so bad
What are the other examples you are thinking of? Im trying to think of great scenes of human interaction in Nemesis and Insurrection. 5 I'll agree has some. I like 5 though in a "so bad it's good" way and just cuz I love Shatner, Nimoy, Kelly, and the rest
@@MarvinMonroe The scene in Star Trek 5 where Sybok makes McCoy and Spock relive their past trauma.
The worst ones are also too long
when patrick stewart goes into breakdown mode, marina sirtis almost starts crying, you can see in her face, she fighting to hold on
It was an emotional scene to film.
could've been intentional. Troi is an empath, after all. either way, I feel it, because I usually go into breakdown mode watching this scene myself.
@@timhowland7103 it always sets me off
I'm sure both actor Marina and character Deanna were just managing to hold back tears
This really makes you go back and watch the episode " FAMILY" season 4 eps 2. This all makes everything relative.
When he says there will be no Picards the sun blasts. The star that shines twice as bright lasts half the time. I think that defines Picard
This makes the latest episode of picard hit that much harder.
I always cry, every time I watch this.
As I am coming up on 35 years, which is the beginning of the middle years of your life (35 - 40), I am starting to really think about the fact that there are almost certainly more years behind me than ahead, and feeling like I haven't done much of anything with my life. I feel for Picard in this scene. I really do.
he feels this way even with all his achievements and accolades.
Same here I feel for Picard because I have realised that the chances of me having my own family is very low so when my brothers had their own kids it felt like a relief for me that my bothers children will carry on the family line
middle of your life by boomer life expetancies, your generation almost certainly will live longer
I'm not sure what it is, but when I see Picard fall apart I can't help but cry myself.
When I first saw this movie I never knew Picard had a brother and nephew because I didn’t watch enough of The Next Generation at the time.
During the show, he met up with Robert and family after being abducted by the Borg. They have another remarkable scene where Picard breaks down. You should look up that scene
@@towermoss I have.
TNG, DS9, and VOY were the Star Treks I grew up with, but TNG has always been my favorite, and Patrick Stewart to this day is my favorite actor. Picard in particular was always my TV role model as a man....he was such a strong portait of masculinity. Being a man doesn't mean being emotionless, we all have moments when we have to let go of stress...and sometimes that means crying, and it is okay to do that with your closest friends and family.
I could never really get into DS9
Despite the hate this film gets. This is the only one I've seen where Picard shows such emotion. He never got married so he loved his brothers family like his own
In a non-Canon novel Picard marries Dr.Crusher and names one of his kids after Rene.
The only other time was when he was visiting his brother on earth. He had just be deassimilated from the Borg but the trauma hadn't really set in just yet, when it did it was one of the most heartbreaking scenes in TNG.
He had son named Jack
This scene is so relevant to Picard Season 3 Episode 2.
I've not watched Picard, so please don't spoil it.
It’s not relevant. It just totally throws this scene away like it was nothing. It actually bothered me he now has a son.
@@manganzon81for me, it makes this scene so much more powerful.
@@manganzon81You’re right. whoever made that pile of shit obviously never watched the show or Generations. When Picard says “Starfleet is the only family I ever needed.” it’sbasically throwing the relationship between Picard and his brother and nephew in the trash. Which is ironic, because it’s the only time he ever had any actual character development.
I'm so sorry about your nephew, Jean-Luc.
So sad. Picard loved Rene as if he was his son. In the end, he did have a son... Jack Crusher.
@@danielwilliamson6180 Like in the final episode of Picard?
@@christopherburksjr.5012 Final season.
As sad as this scene is, Captain Picard can finally release his emotions before this mission got really intense.
Ah, so good, thanks.
They say time is the fire in which we all burn.
Time is nothing but linear and it is damn cruel
It was always odd below they did in a house fire in the 24th Century.
Robert was old-fashioned. Wood house. No modern tech.
@@michaelgreenwood3413 fits in perfect really. Good continuity.
@@michaelgreenwood3413 Yes nailed it
The 24th century will by no means be a perfect world.
Back when Star Trek was written for grownups.
Ironically the kids show is without a doubt the most mature star trek series airing right now.
@@unclefranklin4575its not a kids show its kinda like rick and morty if you know what i mean
@@ventox1054 I was talking about prodigy. That runs circles around any every other current trek show. Except maybe Picard season 3
@@unclefranklin4575Lower Decks is more true to Star Trek than anything made after Gene Roddenberry’s death (with the exception of Voyager.) Picard season 3 was a raging dumpster fire of contrivance and mediocrity.
I am not a huge fan of nu-trek, but I was 11 when this came out and the sentiment was not lost on me.
Look how much better Trek got when they dropped the "no conflict" and "no emtions" rules.
If I were Picard I would go back in time and save them.
That's why you're not Jean Luc Picard
@@melkor77751 and it's too bad.
That would've been a great scene with Picard's brother being like, "I thought you were away with the Enterprise!!!!" And Picard being like, "I was, but it's a long story..."
It is against the law for them to go back in time and change things. There was a eposide in DS9 that gets into that subject.
@@iceman7763 who is gonna arrest them?
There was a fire at the vineyard, jean-luc picard's brother and nephew didn't make it out, it's so sad that the young boy Renee with his whole life ahead of him died before his life could truly begin
Yes I know. I've watched it many times.
@@danielwilliamson6180 I believe all trek fan have by now
@@danielwilliamson6180 but there is hope for the future for a another Picard heir will come
@@davidgriego549 Picard took over the vineyard when he retired.
@@davidgriego549 Yes.
Jean-Luc: There will be no more Picards….
Jack Crusher: Hold my beer.
Beverly: I gave you my name.
Jack Crusher: Give me my beer back!
Picard s3 just totally retconned this scene! It bothered me! This scene was an extremely important character development scene in Picards story and now in Picard s3 ur just gonna throw this away and welp ok. He has a son now. Bullshit… there should be no more picards like he emphatically says in this scene! Having Picard have a son should’ve been OFF the table in the writers room for s3. Period!
@@manganzon81 In a way he was still right; his son is a Crusher. What Jack names his kids is anyone’s guess.
Patrick Stewart could read the phone book and it would sound dramatic!
Same year that show had their series finale.
Correct.
This was literally shot 3 weeks after the show ended. They did All Good Things and Generations back to back.
The movie opened in theaters six months after final episode of the show aired on TV.
This is so sad, but a truly missed opportunity for Star Trek. Picard's brother Robert and his nephew Rene, were to Picard the "Heirs to the Picard name and family". When they died, it left Jean Luc with no heir to the family name. But as we have seen in several episodes of STTNG, Picard seems to have a sort of implied "romance" with Beverly Crusher. And in even another reality, Beverly becomes Captain Beverly Picard of the USS Nightingale, a very fast medical starship.
I would have LOVED to see Beverly and Jean Luc settle down and have a family. There are stories on the net, that a future Picard child marries a certain "future Riker". This should have been explored, as the writers tried too hard to keep the TOS "Kirk" type of Captain (ladies man, but was close to marriage to Carol Marcus) her and her son David (Kirk's son) invented the Genesis Device. So they should have broke tradition and allow Picard to have a route that led to his marriage to Dr. Crusher. And in the movie ST Generations, it is revealed that Jean Luc DOES have a family when he was briefly in the nexus.
I understood what Picard felt. I have lost family myself. All my grandparents.
@@danielwilliamson6180 I know nothing can bring them back, but if anything as long as you are able to remember them, then who they were will never fade, and who they are will always be part of you.
If Jack heard about his family
This scene reminds of a friend who passed at 21. Far too young far too soon
I'm sorry for your loss.
Picard I think cried 2-3 times over the whole series and movies. Burnham cries every time they do a diagnostic.
She lives rent free in your head though.
@@MiningForPiesnah.
@@Strangedays612 yes she does. You can’t even watch a clip about a different series without the rage building up inside you that they dared make a woman the focus of a show
@@MiningForPies Nah. Janeway was good. She didn't cry every week. I know it must be hard to believe a woman could be strong like that. I'd reccomend you watch it.
Well, atleast the Picard name will carry on no…oh. Wait. Crusher.
yeah i'm like cinemasins, picard had could have used the nexus to go go back and save his brother and nephew from the fire, instead of going with kirk 'time has no meaning there.'
After watching Picard season 3 Episode 2 where Picard has a son named Jack with Beverly. Beverly could have told Picard during this film that they have a son together many years ago and that he is a splitting image of him. I blame Beverly for keeping their son’s existence a secret.
I've never watched Picard, so please don't spoil it.
Did you record this on a strip of cellophane?
@@wrestlingconnoisseur No I didn't. At the time I did not know about MP4 and I was new to UA-cam. My camera which I used to record did not have great quality. So give me a break please.
There’s no reason for this scene/plot point to be in the movie. It’s only there so he can realize the kids in the nexus aren’t real.
Except, Guinan told Picard he could go anywhere if he left. Which means he could have easily left the nexus and returned to a time a month before any of these shenanigans happened, and saved his brother and family, those people on the observatory, anyone who died as a result of the first supernova, anyone who died during the Bird of Prey battle, PLUS the Viridians.
And he just… forgets to. Along the way to getting Kirk killed.
Genius
I heard Patrick Stewart wanted an emotional scene to play. Actors love to act.
Patrick Stewart is such a fantastic actor. He’s a bit over the hill now though.
These things happen 😂😂😂
what happened to roberts wife?!
She survived the fire and not much is known what happened after her husband and son were killed.
@@danielwilliamson6180 yikes, she must be messed up
She was the one to contact Picard and tell him about the fire.
@@thomasmartin4281 She did have other family of her own, for example a niece of her joined Starfleet and seemly meet Picard and spoke to him when he visited the academy
Picard kicked her out after he took over the house. She moved into a trailer next to Relfie and got high with her till she ODed.
SHOWEST... NATO as it had been then. X men Don't panic. Already there.
This seems very out of character for Picard. He never displayed emotions until he cried in front of Robert. This was an outburst relative to his other moments of emotional distress. I remember his kind of being short with Riker in an earlier scene in Generations. That kind of made more sense.
Picard is only human.
@ralphmacchiato3761 I more than understand the character. He would never show this type of behavior in front of others, least pf all people outside of his own family, even further beyond people who fell under his direct command.
