"Did You Take the Bribe?" Full Scene | The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009)

[@themanwhoknewtoomuch6667]

John Travolta was an ABSOLUTE BOSS in this one. A vulnerable Denzel was on another level!

[@constantinvaldor3742]

How much how much? 😡

[@premanshchauhan8347]

How fucking much?

[@waseembux7537]

Travolta is absolutely legendary in this role . He absolutely knocked it out the park . Seriously underrated performance.

[@adri2shadow]

just what I was talking about with my wife, when travolta acts like a villian he is a fucking god!!

This was his LAST great performance. He ain’t done anything good since this..

Travolta and Washington are awesome in this scene.

[@KrystylSummers]

It's hawwwwwwt

[@joewhitehead3]

Any half-assed attorney can have that confession thrown out on account he gave it under duress

[@crazyman7671]

Exactly. I think it eventually does. The Mayor says NYC is going to "go to bat" for Garber. My guess it gets tossed quickly.

[@martinmaina9184]

But still will never know if things happened as he explained it

[@random-nz7dy]

I don't think the point of the scene is supposed to be taken as a technical legal indictment. The point is that we are supposed to hear in his voice that he is being brutally honest In admitting what he did because he cares more about saving this kid's life then he does protecting his own ass. In that moment if you're on the phone you're not going to be thinking about the legal technicalities of what happens if you lie lol

[@joewhitehead3]

@@random-nz7dy Still, a DA, who could try to go after him, would have a hard time making a case since they wouldn’t be able to use that confession

Snipers adjusting the scope for a shot being less than like 100 yards away is hilarious.

Not only was it 4 clicks, he adjusted the windage, not even the elevation lol they're in an underground tunnel 😆

@@C0SM1CDUD3 Dont forget the train running by in the next track... like they wouldnt shut that shit down.

[@anneominous7172]

They're aiming for Travolta's hairline. It's retreating in the feet-per-second range by this point.

[@Gundog12]

He forgot to adjust the sight after leaving the range. xD

This scene is layered in a way that the movie never reached again. Great movie, but this scene is exemplary work by everyone involved. #RIPTonyScott

Honor among thieves. This scene was beautiful in every way. The tension, the build-up, the manipulation, and honesty.

[@drummerrck]

Best scene in the movie imo, not even close.

[@enzofernandez53]

definitely worth of an Oscar , these two, amazing acting , listen to Denzel's voice when he speaks about his daughter, I think I've never seen his voice fail like that, amazing, amazing.

[@Stuart267]

The chemistry between these two is incredible.

[@TheAlphaDingo]

tbf, Japanese trains are next level - their rail network is the benchmark of the world. Getting paid an extra 35k for recommending the choosing of the better train is just a coincidence

[@apraew20]

💯

[@1stwonder788]

We should build our own trains

[@LimboGene]

@@1stwonder788We would, if our manufacturing actually built something worth of value. As a superpower nation of the globe, we’re bafflingly behind in transportation like the subways. On the flip side, globalization has brought tremendous unprecedented economic prosperity to these other countries and our local citizens. So I don’t see the problem.

[@finchvalor]

America absolutely could have superior infrastructure, but our government is always busy arguing over which bathrooms gay people use or whatever, and paying all the taxpayer money out to the families of black people who are justifiably killed by the police. Japan doesn’t have these sorts of problems.

[@fba90130]

If I were a rival train company I would make it look like the Japanese train company bribed somebody and get their bid thrown out. It wether it succeeds or not.

[@joshhumbler4197]

Denzel movies always make me emotional. That's why he's my favorite actor.

Travolta and Denzel were FCKN spot-on as characters in this movie. I love this movie so much more because of the acting than anything else!

[@forallthestupidshit3550]

Remind me the ending?

[@themanwithnoname1839]

Yea uh in court that "confession" wouldnt be allowed, Judge: why did you give this confession? Denzel: he said he would kill a teenager if i didnt admit to taking a bribe Judge: oh well this was clearly given under duress, so we must strike this from the record Denzel: thank you your honor

[@jasonmurdoc9533]

Exactly

[@joewas2225]

Any good lawyer would make it stick

[@RvLeshrac]

@@joewas2225 It's impossible to make it stick, it was fully illegally obtained under duress. He could've simply made the story up on the spot to save the kid.

[@raulguadalupe3489]

They had GREAT chemistry.

[@husainjam]

Both actors r good at what they do. This is such an understatement.

[@IGGYTheClown]

You know, this scene is actually genius because he got this guy to confess to a crime under duress, so it can potentially be dropped. So even though this is a real confession based on the circumstance, this makes the outbursts inadmissible.

[@vitaliyred622]

True, confession under duress is a no go

[@carlsberg-gs6rl]

Wow, I did not think of that.

[@TravisFletcher-nl6ch]

Thing is, Japan really does have some of the best trains in the world. So it really wouldn't be far-fetched that Garber picked Japan over Canada.

[@uptownbayarea6068]

And authority was documenting his confessional statements right away. That's crazy😃

[@geordiejones5618]

It was under duress. Not a confession that would hold but it could help them with a paper trial. Still after what this guy went through, I'd say he earned the bribe.

[@cyrussaunders3448]

I’m sorry for you man you are getting yourself in a lot of trouble

[@haloed-hero]

It’s funny because I was watching a sit down with the cast of pulp fiction and John said. That movie changed his acting options, he went from the hero protagonist to more edges, complex characters like this one

[@boof994]

For the sake of saving a kids life or just lying since he didnt give him a choice other than saying he took the bribe. This guy is fine

[@TavMan21]

you can feel the genuine psycho when Travolta has the kid thank Denzel for saving his life,

[@Dilaudid281]

I've always thought this movie would have been better if Washington and Travolta switched roles. It's not that they both didn't do fantastic in the roles they played, but I just feel like they're more suited to play the other character.

[@jknight413]

Interesting take. I think you are right. That's what it means to have to master actors. Denzel would have added a tragic/nihilistic slants to the character. Travolta would have nailed the quiet desperation of the character.

[@solsticeprojekt1937]

Wow, what an amazing performance by Travolta! Holy shit!

[@R00SKi]

Why do I feel like this is something straight out of a side plot of The Dark Knight movie. Like the joker recruited Ryder & is sitting back in elation watching this unfold 😂
