Wonderful dialogue in this film

[@graytonw5238]

That's a tough call as to the best line, but it was damn good. Bond was absolutely unflappable here. Silva tried his best but he couldn't rattle him. Both performances were top-notch though, and I'd have a hard time making the call on who had the upper hand in this entire scene. The give and take was an even match for sure.

[@Wodenson]

so sassy 😂

While that line was superb, the best is the way Bond looks at him and says "resurrection". That hit Silva hard, even though Bond failed his MI6 test Silva knew then and there Bond is far more dangerous under real life pressure.

I don't know if Silva was bisexual, homosexual or any kind of sexual at all. It doesn't matter. His intent was to freak Bond out, to make him insecure and shake his footing. When Bond, the avatar of classical masculinity, responds that he has no issues with this scenario and that there is nothing un-masculine about homosexuality, Silva is instantly rebuffed and switches tactics. He starts to exploit Bond's relationship with the women he cares about, namely Severine and M, knowing that is his true weakness.

Exactly, and i don't know you, but if a guy comes to me in that actitud i would be scared

You can see why that's the most replayed scene - for all of the attention, rightfully so, that Bardem gets, Craig's verbal counterpunch reasserts dominance despite his negative position. When Craig was given a good screenplay and allowed to actually act, in this and Casino Royale, they made two instant classics.

After Bond insinuates that he might like men too, the bad guy stops it, and this reminded me of a female friend of mine that managed to escape rape once. She got picked up by a guy with a gun, he stated his intentions and put her inside the car. When inside the car, after some minutes, she realized hitting him or jumping out could be deadly, so she started to say how bad she has been needing a strong man with attitude in her life, "just like you", and started making insinuations about going out on some dates, become a couple and presenting him to her family. After hearing that, the guy decided to drop her off the car and she went home without any physical harm. She explained to me that she understood that the thrill the guy wanted was to have forced sex, so once she willingly accepted it, there was nothing for him anymore. Still, it was a traumatic experience. She went through therapy and only 30 years after the incident she started to share this story with people because no one knew about it. She cried telling me this story, it was intense to listen to, but it seems like sharing this story was the final process of her healing, she is doing fine now, always smiling, laughs a lot, and like telling jokes 🙏🏻

This scene was so amazing - Silva was trying so hard to convince Bond that what M did was a betrayal, but only in fact reinforced that Bond was her favorite. Clearing him for field duty despite everyone else saying not to? What else is that but favoritism & relying on Bond? As soon as Silva saw the 'seduction' wasn't making Bond uncomfortable, he switched tactics. No, Bond had the upper hand this entire time, despite being tied to a chair and hardly saying a word.

[@eltorpedo67]

What else is that but favoritism & relying on Bond? While she was definitely relying on Bond - she knew whatever his physical and mental impairments were he'd eliminate Silva, but at what cost? His own life?

[@abel9351]

​@@eltorpedo67 she was using him. did you skip the part where he called her a bitch during word associations? if she was so confident in bond, she wouldnt have ordered moneypenny to take the shot. bond ultimately scolded M for this later. in fact, silva WAS successful in shaking bond's trust in M. after they were walking away from silva, M had to explain the backdrop of who silva was as bond was taken aback by his disfigurement. you can also read in the original script that bond was shocked to find that M lied to him about his score and being cleared for duty. also important to note, M does use people as she used silva when he was stationed in HK. silva wasnt in bond's place too long ago and she gave him up to the chinese. its not so much personal as it is professional.

[@gradeahonky]

You can bad mouth bad movie audiences all you want, but they are that way because most movies demand it of them. When a movie demands an audience full attention, the audience will shut up and listen. I'll never forget watching A Quiet Place in the theater with a packed audience. Everyone was trying to be just as quiet as the characters in the movie. Nobody wanted to be the asshole who broke the silence, I could hear people eating their popcorn as quietly as possible. Furthermore - it had a real fun immersive quality where I became afraid of making sound just like the characters. The point is - it's easy to underestimate people and prove yourself right. It's great to see a scene like this (better than any in A Quiet Place) and hear your story of how it still effects an audience.
