R.I.P. Lou Gosset jr. March 29, 2024. Amazing, memorable performance.

[@brucescott4261]

@jameskidd411 ...Louis Cameron Gossett, Jr. died on March 29th, 2024.

[@jimayers7461]

Oh God,, I didn't know. Sad to hear. R.I.P

[@jonathanrex]

Dearly missed... yes, they said your name, Sir. Well deserved!

[@CHunt-cz1ek]

Best performance out of many fine efforts in that film. Bravo!!

[@leepatterson4355]

I loved this movie when it first came out, I am now 71yrs old and get as much out of it now as I did then. Loved them all ❤

[@BigTee3099]

I’ve literally seen this movie at least 100 times! It inspired me greatly. I first saw it when it came out while i was in high school. I graduated and became a Marine. Although i wasn’t an officer but having that respect and character has remained with me my whole life. Mayo had to learn what it took to be a member of a team, to think of and care about others than himself. He finally learned it. Rest in Peace Lou Gossett Jr. ( Gunny Foley)!

[@xray86delta]

I remember not wanting to see this movie when it came out. My girlfriend dragged me to it. I think it's one of the greatest movies ever made! Lou Gossett was perfect as Foley! Love this movie!

[@jenniferwellman5311]

He definitely deserved the Oscar he received for this role.

[@jeanineberna8458]

I know why you didn’t want to watch it, because Gere is freaking gorgeous,awesome hunk! Every guy, my hubby, included, is jealous of him!

[@KuvDabGib]

same

[@D-Fens_1632]

They nailed it on this one, it had stuff for the guys and stuff for the gals. Part coming of age man's movie and part rom com. Great flick.

[@anthonysmall7978]

That fight man, when Gere kicked Gossett in the heart I was like yeah boy!!!

[@ReneMacias1978]

RIP Gunnery Sergeant Foley!!

[@rogerduckwall4146]

All the actors in this movie were absolutely stellar. Losing Sid broke my heart. Sid was just a lovable Okie!!! One of my favorite movies.

[@74te27]

Lou Gosset' s performance was impeccable!

[@taroman7100]

He made it!

[@alfredbellinibellini9624]

I graduated army basic training in 1984 great movie .

[@icns01]

I cant say how much I appreciate this look back at this classic. I really loved this film and now getting an understanding of what it took to make it, I appreciate it even more! Thanks much!!

[@stacyfrazierbauer8811]

This movie was sooo good...I'm 50...This was one of my all-time faves!

[@pambb5743]

My favorite movie of all time! I’ve seen it at least twice a year since it first came out. It still makes me cry in the end. ❤

[@susansuarez343]

Me too! 2:21

[@scottbecker4371]

"Walk that wall!" An awesome scene about challenge, achievement, teamwork, love.

[@anthonyspina5723]

Still to this day one of the greatest movies I have ever seen.

[@jonathanrex]

So true. Underrated.

[@susansuarez343]

Ditto! 2:39

[@hwy1310]

Let’s not forget the soundtrack…..great score in this movie.

[@acerothstein4755]

The music made it, not the acting

[@grafjoster6437]

Absolutely. Still have it on vinyl❤😊

[@jonathanrex]

@@acerothstein4755 It certainly was the acting as well. If you hear the music you immediately have the acting in front of your eyes. Part of the magic of this movie. Inseparable.

[@SergioGonzalez-ew2po]

One of the best actors: Louis Gosset Jr....RIP 2024...87 years...always be remembered!!...Maybe an underrated film ..possitive and has a message!

[@jakemorrison548]

There were some powerful scenes in this movie. Love this movie. Glad they kept the ending scene. Sometimes I watch just the end scene on KZbin. That scene and the “I have no where else to go” scene…such a powerful scene.

[@dawnemerson3604]

Me too

[@gilbertlopez183]

My favorite is the fight between Mayo and Foley, where Foley says "you can quit now if you want Mayo it's up to you" . Very powerful scene.

[@MsLemon1971]

Lou Gosset Jr. won the best supporting oscar for this in 1982. Well deserved win. RIP.

[@jennyor867]

This movie is still one of the greatest of all time; it has the magic to transport you and make you feel like part of the cast.

[@sammie4695]

Love this movie. Everyone was great in it. You can tell they all gave there all to it, acting wise. Richard Gere.......WOW!

[@peruseperusing5027]

Great movie!!! Seen it too many times to count! :)

[@jenniferwellman5311]

I gave up counting the times, I’ve watched it.

[@suzannevega2289]

I still love this movie, I've lost count how many times I've watched it! All the actors just fit, they were great, even if they didn't all get along, you would've never known by watching the film. A true classic, there are other good movies out there but I don't think they compare to this one.

[@Del-Scent]

It's one of the best movies I've ever seen. It has stood the test of time.

[@susansuarez343]

Every single time I watch this movie it is like the first time. It makes me cry, laugh, cheer and mad! It is hands down my favorite move of all time! I have it on VHS and DVD and without a doubt I watch this movie at least 2 times a year just cuz it is sooooo dam good!

[@billieterry7111]

My favorite movies of all time!! Love the Story line in it!! All did a superb performance!! My only problem was the Language!!

[@susansuarez343]

@@billieterry7111 Oh darn, I take it you don’t speak/read English? What about subtitles?

[@ThePrettygurl77]

Me too...absolutely one of my favorite movies ever. Every actor was tailor made for each part.

[@jurgendenederlandse2449]

This movie inspired many military careers in 1981, 1982... In my case, I became Yacht Skipper and obtained many Merchant Marine diplomas due to this film.

[@jefffarmer5785]

Everybody in that film just KILLED IT-!!!!!!! This one, you have to give credit to 'Hollyweird'-!!! One of my FAVS... I (really) believe I once talked to Richard Gere in an Applebee's but he wouldn't admit that it was him... I THINK he was coming from Screengems in Wilmington, NC...?? And, when I passed by him, I looked him right in the face and said: 'Don't you be eyeballing me, Mayonnaise'-!!! (He started laffing)... 'Believe it, Or- not'-!!!?? 😆🤣👍✌

[@jackhammer4656]

This was the last movie I saw at the theatre with my high school GF before I went to boot camp for the navy, It will always be special to me.

[@rosiegirl2485]

Richard Gear could win my heart in anything he chooses to do! Debra winger...I love that in urban cowboy and officer and a gentleman..she is a hometown beauty that plays up for every girl...not some Hollywood beauty trying to play down to fit the part! We need more movies like these...though I don't think they are necessarily planned...they evolve!

[@jamest681]

Don't forget Robert Loggia.

[@CbaAc-wq3ih]

Inspirational. The Navy version of Rocky. It made me think of a girl I dated whom looked similar to Debra’s character. The woman I knew might have passed though I hope I get a glance of her when I join her in heaven or on the other side.

[@jananjohnson5999]

It's one of those movies you can watch over and over and never get tired of. ❤

[@user-in7cx5lz9c]

Incredible, even still today.

[@doreeninzirillo9484]

Officer and the Gentleman is my favorite movie, I watch it over and over and I will always love Richard Gere, Always

Great to hear these actors enjoyed themselves. It came through. was a kid. In a shit neighborhood. This film inspired me.

[@annmariewill6519]

One of my greatest movies then and now.

[@rdor6997]

Here in 2021, it still stands the test of time. I tear up on the last scene every time!! A great movie.

[@rmlectronicsuk2410]

My favourite film of all time. Has to be a complete hit!

[@ariturbo4094]

No movies these days made like this one,,,, masterpiece

[@kiewathomas3077]

This movie made me want to be a better man. I went on to become a pilot (civilian). I became a better man. It's still so relevant, a time less masterpiece!

[@jenniferwellman5311]

This and Shawshank Redemption are my my two top favorite movies. I think Richard Gear was very complementary of Debra Winger. Given, how they felt about each other. But, you gotta remember just how young and cocky they we’re back then.

[@jonathanrex]

"This sequence is gonna work....". damn, it sure did!

[@knicknack2370]

I watched.this movie in my 20s. Still watch it today 25 years later...tear jerker! Dude why didnt Debra Winger and Lisa Blount give their views on this??? WTF??? Damn Richard got down with Debra for real..wow!! I told my wife "Damn that looked too real" I guess now we know why..lol

[@debbiegreen7051]

I cried then and every time after I watch this great movie, I cried. This was one and he had many, of the best movies he’s ever made.❤️😀💯🔥. Lou all the crew was amazing. I still get emotional. All the women imagining it was us that Eichard was coming for❤️😃💯🔥

[@jeanineberna8458]

Everyone was perfect for their role in this script! This movie is unforgettable! Just put Richard Gere in the cast, & I am hooked!

[@caesarfiorini1728]

He always gets the girl

[@freshmen6255]

I was born in 1988 and the one scene where he says, he won't quit because "he's got no where else to go" that scene has had a profound affect on my life. I can relate a lot to the main character and his struggle and how he gives everything he has everyday because he ain't got nothing else. I've never watched the movie but I've watched that scene a hundred times when things have been at there worst

[@ClintScottFischer]

Amen! I echo your statement. Have you watched the whole movie yet?

[@TheOnlyOneStanding8079]

Watch the movie. Its great

[@rscott2247]

I always thought that in the beginning of the movie taking place in the Philippines where Zack is that young kid and he's all upset telling his sailor dad " you said you were going to come back " I felt that that emotionally charged scene was so real " Great realistic acting, directing with that scene. Kudos to that kid actor that played there ~

The soundtrack to the movie just gives me the chills and goosebumps ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@junesnow5422]

I was barely 18, living off $3.05 an hour, and I went to see this movie 12 times at full price. It was Richard Gere’s character line that got me. Having nothing, but your own inner strength, and having to discover and overcome your own flaws. So awesome. Some 15 years later I was proposed to by a USN aviator, but declined. It wasn’t about Winger’s character being rescued. My pilot was an officer but not a gentleman.

[@mindlerj]

Lou Gossett worked his az off just to get the part. Without question he deserved Best Supporting Actor.

[@Ls98040]

I watched that final scene being filmed at a paper bag plant in Tacoma, Washington. Still have a paper bag signed by the cast members produced during the filming.

[@DavidGutierrez-nt7ov]

This movie certainly inspired my U.S. Naval career in aviation.

[@ethelhoose2972]

[@michaelbarkley9055]

Great movie!! All of the acting was A+ I loved the beautiful Lisa Blount in any movie she was in. I hated when she died in 2010. So young.

[@giuliocolonna363]

After watching that movie I decided I was to make a naval officer and a pilot, which I did, not at the same time unfortunately. I couldn't help feeling a bit like Zack Mayo, walking around in my whites and that was great and what was even greater, several girls 'felt' that too.

[@jeanineberna8458]

Well, it sounds like you were the officer but not a gentleman 😠

[@giuliocolonna363]

@@jeanineberna8458, you may be right or wrong, depending on your personal notion of 'gentleman', since you weren't there to bear witness, or were you?

[@michaelbolton7790]

A brilliant film, I've watched it umpteen times & still thoroughly enjoy it. Brilliant actors, especially the performance by Louis Grosset Jr. as Sgt. Foley, who deservedly won an Oscar. A brilliant script written by Douglas Day-Stewart, and brilliant direction by Taylor Hackford.

Trivia Fact: According to a guy I worked with at the paper mill in Port Townsend, the scene inside the bag plant was not actually in Port Townsend. Apparently, the PT mill had some issue with the script and didn't want to be associated with the film. Instead it was filmed at another mill close by.

wrldchamps04 She hated Richard Gere and Taylor Hackford. She’s said they are “assholes” / “Jerks” but her acting in it was exactly professional and struck a chord with many romances. Great film, well put together and it flowed sweetly and exquisitely with many “feel good” emotions.

[@burtward895]

Back then you could gauge the movie from the people coming out. It was a game sometimes for us to spoil a movie for people. One of my buds said, "Jaws gets electocuted" as we exited Jaws 2. We literally had to run to our cars. It took us hours to find where our two cars went. We would not have attended this movie but I remember waiting for The Wall at the Apollo Twin and they were still showing O&G. As the it let out, the women were all in tears and the boyfriends were embracing them. As it turned out, it was the best date movie to have ever been made since Love Story. And I was young but remember ladies coming out in just total hysterics from that movie at the Sheppard Twin.
