1:42:01
. . .you would fall to pieces
and not do the job right.
1:42:04
He knew how far he could push you.
That was the other clever thing.
1:42:08
Occasionally he pushed too far
then was confused why you were angry.
1:42:12
Philosophically,
he was just no-nonsense. . .
1:42:16
. . .honest, had his view. . .
1:42:20
. . .very cool view of humanity.
1:42:22
He was a warm guy at home,
I'm sure everybody says that.
1:42:26
Crazy about animals. . .
1:42:28
. . .but could be. . .
1:42:31
. . .brutal with people he worked with.
1:42:34
He wasn't all that way.
1:42:36
Sometimes he could be
generous as well.
1:42:40
But he felt everybody was an opponent.
1:42:43
No matter what, he wasn't sure
they weren't...
1:42:47
Didn't have an agenda of their own.
1:42:50
And he wasn't gonna have that
on his pictures.
1:42:53
I'm asking the fucking questions,
understand?
1:42:57
Thank you!
Can I be in charge for a while?
1:43:01
Are you shook up? Nervous?
1:43:03
Sir, I am, sir!
1:43:04
Do I make you nervous?
1:43:07
Were you about to call me an asshole?
1:43:09
Full Metal Jacket
was based on a novel. . .
1:43:11
. . . The Short-Timers,
by Gustav Hasford, a Vietnam veteran.
1:43:15
He collaborated on the screenplay
with Kubrick and Herr. . .
1:43:19
. . .who covered the war
as a correspondent.
1:43:21
He was thinking about
making a war movie.
1:43:24
I said, "You already made
Paths of Glory. "
1:43:28
He said, "People think of that
as an anti-war movie.
1:43:31
I want to make a war movie. . .
1:43:33
. . .just to consider the subject. . .
1:43:36
. . .without a moral
or political position. . .
1:43:40
. . .but as a phenomenon. "
1:43:52
Holy shit! The sniper has a clean shot
through the hole!
1:43:57
What he ended up doing
in Full Metal Jacket...
