  • Ronald is up for his Parole hearing, he feels he's rehabilitated, Unfortunately his hero and foe Shadow disagrees and turns up to ruin it for poor old Ronald (Who likes to burn old ladies and set fire to the whole world)
    I don't own the copyright to this movie or any part of it, I'm just a huge fan of Backdraft, Donald Sutherland, Robert De Niro basically the whole cast.
    With this being my favourite clip of the movie itself.
    Hope you enjoy.
    Burn it ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

    I don't know why so many in the comments have to make this scene political. The point of this scene is to show how criminally insane, but extremely intelligent, Ronald is. He remembers every detail about every crime he's committed. He remembers everything about the people he knows. It shows establishes what an expert arsonist he is. It shows that the entire time he's been locked up in prison, he has played the part of a "model prisoner". Up until the point Shadow confronts him, it shows what an expert manipulator he is by lying to his psychiatrist for 6 years straight and the parole board with a straight face. But Shadow sees through the charade, and that's why Ronald gets upset and says "That's not fair Shadow" when he shows the doll. This is a very powerful scene.

      @@nobutur Think it was the film's way to show how crazed of an arson he is; a mere memento of one of his previous crimes was enough to undo 6 years of fooling a parole board and reignite (no pun intended) his desire to simply "burn it all."

      @shindean 3 года назад +6

      Yeah, sadly 90's Hollywood had a really desperate fixation with pushing young male actors ahead and keeping the legends behind them. It was like an odd cleansing they were trying to do, maybe to get rid of the old and look hip? Years later, De Niro is still putting a master class on and Billy Baldwin is....where...?

    • @TTM9691

      Absolutely, I've never seen this movie and I'm so psyched to see these two great actors do a scene together!!! And they're really bouncing off each other, very cool!
      Regarding the comment above me about 90s Hollywood; I know what he's saying but I do want to note that De Niro did "Cape Fear", "Guilty Beyond Suspicion", "Goodfellas" and "Awakenings" all around the same time period, I don't think anyone was holding De Niro back from doing major starring roles! And De Niro was taking supporting roles even in the mid-80s ("Untouchables", 'Angel Heart", "Brazil", The Mission"). Sutherland was still appearing in good roles in movies throughout the 90s and had always been more of an ensemble actor anyways. He could play a lead role, but he'd just as often pop up in something like "Animal House" in a supporting role.

Ronald was such a pyromaniac that he would do anything to fullfill his desires, even if it means fooling parole boards over and over again into thinking that he had changed, even though he never left in his old ways as a pyromaniac all along. For such extreme displays of pyromania AND deception you need someone who is familiar with Ronald and/or at least his pathology, and that someone is Shadow.

      Well Ronald and Shadow go way back to younger years, and Shadow saved Ronald. I mean demented or not, that still sticks with you in your brain.

    my opinion, but playing a psycho, a serial killer, anybody with a dark passenger, to use dexter's phrase, is akin to playing a drunk. if you try to play drunk, then it looks fake or vaudevillian and amateurish by today's acting standards. you have to play it like you're trying to hide the fact that you're drunk. that's donald's gift in this portrayal, he leans into ronald's normal characteristics, but the obsession and desire to hurt leaks out all around the seams. that's the role of de niro in this scene, he's there because he's intimate with ronald and he knows he can't hide it if pressed. the parole board serves no purpose other than as negative commentary on social bureaucracy.
