'You Can't Handle the Truth' Full Scene | A Few Good Men (Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson)

🍿In a crucial courtroom scene, we see Kaffee (Tom Cruise), trying to find out what happened to a soldier who died at Guantanamo Bay. Lieutenant Kaffee questions Colonel Jessup (Jack Nicholson) during a big military trial.

🎬A Few Good Men (1992): Lt. Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) is a military lawyer defending two U.S. Marines charged with killing a fellow Marine at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba. Although Kaffee is known for seeking plea bargains, a fellow lawyer, Lt. Cdr. JoAnne Galloway (Demi Moore), convinces him that the accused marines were most likely carrying out an order from a commanding officer. Kaffee takes a risk by calling Col. Nathan R. Jessep (Jack Nicholson) to the stand in an effort to uncover the conspiracy.

Tough luck, I know! "A Few Good Men" got nominated for five Golden Globes and four Academy Awards. They were hoping to win Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (that's Jack Nicholson), Best Film Editing, and Best Sound Mixing.
But, despite many thinking Jack Nicholson deserved a golden award, the movie didn't actually win in any of those categories it was nominated for.

This is what good writing is. Its just people in a room but you hang on every word

[laurivauramo]

Nicholson gives chills with his perfect portrait of Jessup. I cannot help but watch it all over again

[TheKt]

Admit it. This is not the 1st time you are watching this scene. I know this is not my 1st time

-Did you order the code red!?
-You don’t have to answer that question
-I’ll answer the question - *proceeds to incriminate himself*

In an interview with Kevin Pollock, he said they had to shoot this same scene many times from different angles using the same cameras because there weren't enough cameras to film everything in the same take (I'm quoting from memory but I believe they did 12 takes for this scene). And that could pose a problem in continuity because if the actors couldn't maintain the same facial expressions, demeanor, intensity, etc...from take to take, the final editing would be ruined. He also said that in all of the takes, Jack Nicholson would act EXACTLY like the last one, with the same intensity, facial expression, demeanor, as you just saw in the movie cut (almost like a machine). It was amazing and saved a lot of hours for everybody.

The master gives a lesson in character acting, because underneath he feels what he says. He becomes the character for the duration of shooting. People say its from the very first script reading. He has spent days absorbing whats required and he never disappoints. Anthony Hopkins said that only Brando does it as well.

I serve with people like this. Rules regulations and policies are not for man like this. They use power to circumvent it.

🤣🤣🤣 8:20 Poor Lt Weinberg was just sitting at his table minding his business when he suddenly incured the wrath of Jessup!!!! 🤣🤣

[eddieavilia]

Tom's greatest performance EVER... Nothing else comes close.

[reallymakesyouthink]

This is the perfect example of someone who's in a position of authority being totally unsettled by being challenged.
They are so used to people just doing as they are told.

[nwtraveler]

Masterful performance by Jack Nicholson.

[jaystoned]

When you infuriate someone, they only see you. They don't see the judge. They don't see the jury. They don't see the court. They come after you. It's personal.

[paulleckner]

Jack Nicholson immersed in the role of USMC Colonel Jessup went off the rails! Improvised the "You can't handle the truth!"

[vincentlussier]

The scene still sends shivers up my spine every time I see it! Real dramatic and powerful!

[stephenbailey]

Definitely one of THE best scenes Ever.

[manpalsoin]

A truly underrated film, and a scene right up there with the very best.

[carrotx]

Goosebumps ... This intense scene still gives me goosebumps. 😳😳

[BigTee]

This is the most superb acting I’ve ever seen in years! This movie will always be one of the great ones!!
