DAVE (1993) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

[@Cadinho93]

"Dave, I would have taken a bullet for you." -That gets me every time! Dave is truly one of the most underrated, heartfelt and fantastically written movies. I love it! Also, Kevin Kline is one of the most underrated actors of our time. Wish he had done more after the '90s.

[@howardbalaban7051]

Agreed! Kevin Kline was awesome in Silverado, too.

[@nicholaswachter1974]

Agreed and let me add, in a movie of great performances all around, Ving Rhames as Duane is equally underrated.

[@joemckim1183]

Ving Rhames is a very underrated actor.

[@denniszenanywhere]

He was also great in In & Out

[@atuuschaaw]

I concur!

[@singingwolf3929]

I love Ving Rhames in this. He goes from, "I'm here." To, "Do you think a sweater vest would look good on me?" And then him being in the campaign office at the end! Chef's kiss. It was such a nuanced performance that deserves a lot more credit.

[@Esus4]

Check out Ving Rhames acceptance speech for a different role at the Golden Globes. It was astounding.

[@handsomeX]

​@@Esus4Oh yes! The one with Jack Lemmon?

[@samuelmoulds1016]

yeah, having not seen "Dave" since the last century, I always pictured Ving Rhames in a sweater in the last scene. PLUS, this thought came to me years ago, when he took the First Lady and Dave to see President Mitchell, he did take a bullet. he took them where NO ONE was allowed to be. Ving Rhames says, "We can get in a lot of trouble!" this showed, he could 'take a bullet'!

[@fuzzlet3045]

My father was always disappointed he wasn’t in a sweater vest at the end

[@Bayougirl78]

My Mother (she was 67 at the time) burst out crying at that line....so did I. Ving's delivery was so perfect!

[@AdVictoriam93]

It always makes me drop a tear. I think this is Ving Rhames best role !

[@DoremiFasolatido1979]

"I would've taken a bullet for you." Simple, sincere... That line...is the hallmark of what it means to be a good leader. When those you lead aren't commanded to do what needs to be done, or because they feel a sense of obligation or compulsion, but because they WANT to...because your leadership is worthy of their effort.

Kevin Kline has so much range. He makes a great villain (like Otto) but also a romantic lead, dramatic lead, and he's very funny when he wants to be. Great actor, all around. And Sigourney is an icon. I love this movie.

[@chetstevensq]

[@JoeMama410]

Frank Langella is so good in this. He makes Bob believably intimidating without becoming a cartoon villain. I really wish the problems in the US were simple enough that they could be solved by good people sitting down together and talking things out.

[@tamarleigh]

OMG I just realized that Gabriel (from The Americans) and Bob are the same actor! 😆 I’ve seen both so many times and never realized.

Kevin Kline, who plays the President and Dave, is one of my favorite actors. He is an award-winning actor on stage and screen. Some of his best movies: - Silverado - A western, he plays a gunslinger with a heart of gold, in a cast including Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, Kevin Costner, Jeff Goldblum, and John Cleese. - The Big Chill - A group of college friends reunite after one of their own takes his own life. Lots of amazing music - The Pirates of Penzance - Gilbert and Sullivan's operetta takes a tough comic turn with a huge cast. Kline reprises his Tony Award-winning role as The Pirate King, with the rest of the original, Broadway cast: Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith, George Rose, and Tony Azito. The only one who is not the original cast is Angela Lansbury as Ruth. - In & Out - As a beloved high school teacher in a small town outed on the Academy Awards telecast by a former student who just won Best Actor. Tom Sellick, Debbie Reynolds, Joan Cusack, and Matt Dillon. - A Fish Called Wanda - Written and starring Monty Python member John Cleese, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Python member Michael Palin. Kline won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar. - Grand Canyon - An ensemble drama with Kline, Mary McDonnell, Danny Glover, and others. - De-Lovely - A musical fantasia/biography of composer-lyricist Cole Porter with Kline as Porter. Ashley Judd plays his wife. Lots of great songs from the 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s written by Porter. - French Kiss - A rom-com with Meg Ryan...Kline plays the French leading man. - Soapdish - A huge ensemble comedy with Sally Field, Whoopi Goldberg, Robert Downey, Jr, and Elizabeth Shue. Behind the scenes of a TV soap opera. - Chaplin - A biopic of Charlie Chaplin starring Robert Downey, Jr. as Chaplin. Kline plays silent film star Douglas Fairbanks, one of Chaplin's closest Hollywood friends. There are about 15 other solid films he's made. Silverado, The Big Chill, Grand Canyon, and French Kiss are all films written and/or directed by Laurence Kasdan

[@Madbandit77]

You forgot Darling Companion with Diane Keaton, Mark Duplass, Ayelet Zurer and Sam Shepard. Another Lawrence Kasdan film.

[@ct6852]

Dave is one of those handful of movies that are simply perfect.

[@talltulip]

Kevin Kline gave a ferocious performance in Sophie's Choice. (It is also one of Meryl Streeps most astonishingly amazing performances.) Another Kline film I absolutely love is The Emperor's Club. It is very underrated, and usually overshadowed by Dead Poets Society (because both movies are about a teacher at an exclusive prep school), but The Emperor's Club is definitely worth a watch.

[@Dudeman23rd]

Such a wonderfully underrated comedy. I've adored this movie since the first time I saw it as a young teen. Dave's speech after firing Bob about feeling powerless to help the country just feels more real as time goes on. I hope everyone strives to be like Dave in their lives: pleasant and selfless and finding joy in the happiness of others.

[@hungryclone]

"I would have taken a bullet for you." Such a good line.

[@larryairgood4320]

"Silverado" (1985) is a good, solid western starring Kevin Kline and with an excellent supporting cast of Kevin Costner, Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, Linda Hunt, and Brian Dennehy: if you are now ready for more Kevin Kline. But you can also find Kevin Kline in the story of a group of baby boomer college friends reuniting after 15 years who gather together for the funeral of yet another of the old group (corpse played by Kevin Costner). Costarring Glenn Close, William Hurt, Jeff Goldblum, Tom Berenger, & JoBeth Williams, this 1983 comedy drama has an outstanding sound track of old time rock and roll. Oscar nominated for Best Picture, someday watch "The Big Chill".

Bright Angel, Miss Cassie, you're 100% right. We desperately need politicians who are like Dave. Being nice to others, showing compassion, being humble, and helping others when needed are all attributes of a selfless person.

Bill Clinton was photographed wearing the promotional hat for the movie Rudy while jogging. This gave some Republicans a big laugh. So Clinton switchhed to wearing the promotional hat for this movie.

Thank you, thank you, and thank you for selecting "Dave". If there can be anything more enjoyable than watching this movie, it's watching the first time reaction of someone else watching "Dave".😊 I love the quiet little scenes that outline Dave's personality and character. Dave bicycling home, his signature secret sandwiches, and his scrapbook of his presidential adventure. It was ginger funny when the president, at the public event, made you decide that he needed to work on portrayal. In the police pullover scene, the officer thought the first lady "needed work". And all those cameo performances-wow!

Good choice. This is a real underrated gem, and a great story. Kevin Kline is one of my favorite actors - he was the bad guy Otto in A FISH CALLED WANDA. A couple others he was in you might like are THE BIG CHILL (1983), SILVERADO(1985), I LOVE YOU TO DEATH(1990), and WILD WILD WEST (1999).

I have loved this movie ever since it came out. To this day, whenever there is talk in the news about balancing the budget, my best friend and I turn to each other and say "they just need to call Murray and get some hoagies up in here". Problem solved.

I was a fan @Camden Yards that day! They filmed it prior to the regularly scheduled Orioles game. Anybody else?

28:51 It's the ultimate checkmate. Even if Bob says "I pulled a coup, and replaced the President with an imposter" the First Lady can shut down any rumors like that. Hence the need to go after the *actual* crimes. Bob's mistake was thinking that Dave wanted the power, just like any politician. Dave was willing to give it up at the drop of a hat, and let justice be done on the guilty.

This movie is absolutely adorable. Dave is one of my favorite movie presidents.

This was my favorite movie growing up. I was a weird kid, but it's still a fantastic movie.

[@rrmemphis427]

As others said, this is a highly underrated movie and Kevin Kline is a great actor. Great reaction as always!

[@tgaddis]

Cassie! One of my most most favorite movies from my childhood!! I always wanted to be a President like Dave Kovic when I was a kid! Great acting in this one too, so many low key major actors/actresses making appearances in this one too. Laura Linney and Bonnie Hunt are two of my favs! Great Choice!! Love your channel keep it up!

[@derekfnord]

This is such a great, great movie! I can watch this over and over, and I never get tired of it. *So* good!

If you remember Richard Dreyfuss in Jaws, he played a similar role in a delightful comedy named "Moon Over Parador." It's outside the US, Dreyfuss is an actor who gets kinda forced into the role. Worth a watch.

[@liduck52]

It's Parador.

@@tvdroid22 Dave was a better movie. Dave wants to use the ruse to make things better. Dreyfuss on the other hand just wanted to go home.

[@tvdroid22]

@@liduck52 And I liked them both. Does that make me conflicted? Seriously, I didn't realize we were discussing morality here. I thought they were MOVIES.

I love this film and the whole cast. "Bob Alexander" Frank Langella was a real hunk early in his career. His performance in the lead role in "Dracula" on Broadway had the ladies swooning. Another great Kevin Kline movie you'll like is "In & Out" (1997). Other fun POTUS films I know you'll like are "The American President" (1995) and "My Fellow Americans" (1996).

[@Elephant2024-wi2li]

Interesting that a whole bunch of movies came out in the 1990s that were either presidentially themed or had the U.S. President as one of its main characters: Dave, The American President, Air Force One, Independence Day, Nixon, JFK, My Fellow Americans, Primary Colors, Wag the Dog, Absolute Power. Even Mars Attacks.

Here are 2 suggestions for future movies: 1. A Walk in the Clouds 2. The Sea of Trees "Dave" is a classic that I saw when it first came out. Truly a "Feel Good" movie.

[@DanDaArtMan71]

Yes This was a good movie. Might I recommend a few others around the same release time? Sneakers with Robert Redford and Ben Kingsley (The actor who played the VP in Dave), Searching for Bobby Fischer, Defending Your Life.
