Hello N&J! I never comment but since I’m early I’ve decided to, I’ve been binge watching your videos since June 🤍. Love love love your reviews! This is the only review channel I watch now 🤗
That scene of the father talking to his pilot son is a direct quote from interviews with family members. Apparently the father was a true monster - said unbelievable things to his kids throughout their lives. Donald kept his father close to illustrate thats all his early moves, like the hotel etc, came from the company money - essentially his father. The whole party showed trump moving from under Cohn to on top of Cohn, illustrated in their body language, in the things that they said to each other, and it finally culminated into the birthday party, which he threw to illustrate his position on top of Cohn. It was a way of humiliating cohn. As if it was like charity, including the fake cufflinks.
I watched this movie tonight and I thought it was pretty good. I think it did a good job at just telling a story without being too politically charged.
I saw the film as a character study of avarice, ambition and power. He leveraged his relationships with Roy Cohn as a mentor, and his own dad as a resource. I felt that when Trump felt he eclipsed his mentor(s), he quickly left them in the dust. Trump only reached back out to Cohn after his doctor told him he couldn't catch AIDS by casual contact, and knowing Cohn was on the ropes, Trump knew he had much more leverage in getting help with his criditor troubles. Even at the party (which struck me as Trump showing off how generous he was to this washed up old guy) Ivana confides that the "gift" Trump gave him was cheap knock-off crap. I didn't see it as an attack on Trump so much as a character study of ambition without an ounce of shame or introspection.
The first time I remember being aware of DJT was in the late 80’s (?) and the Donald and Ivana are at some swanky ski resort in Aspen (or somewhere) and On The Slopes Marla Maples confronts them about her affair w/ DJT! Ivana seems nonplussed and throws her wedding ring at her and says ‘you can have him!’ What a great scene that could’ve been; maybe if this was a more satirical film but this isn’t that. “It’s because of closeted homosexuals that we have Donald J. Trump.” -Nicholas Bell I definitely want to see this one. Thanks for the very entertaining & compelling review. They’re always satisfying!!🌈♥️👍🏼👎🏼🤷🏼♀️
I think Roy genuinely cared for him, as a friend, and expected the same. But literally the only time where he was meant to actually show Roy that he's grateful was when he requested that Russel gets housed in a room where he was fighting Pneumocytis, or Cryposporidium, or Mycobacterium or whatever it was of the million and one things poor people with AIDs are sentenced to have at the end of their life... And what does Donald do? Discriminate against Russel for having AIDs, and against Roy (His good friend and mentor) for the same thing.... because he doesn't know how some viral illnesses work (Gee, I wonder if that's gonna ever pop up in his future, and drastically decrease his chance of winning the 2020 presidential election). And then to make up for it, what does he do? Give an ailing, and slowly dying Roy fake diamond cufflinks. Dang.
Omg thank you for dropping this so late! I am waiting for the train in NYC to go home and it’s 1:30 am here so this is perfect to keep me company 🤗 P.S. I have no plans to watch this I am just commenting to help with the algorithm 😊
I read a biography my last year of high school about Joseph Mccarthy and came away with the realisation that the more interesting piece of work was Roy Cohn. But that was the late 90s, and no one else my age knew who he was, and a lot of our parents didn't remember him. Who'd of thought that over 25 years later between Amgels in America, Fellow Travelers, and now this he'd be infamous yet again.
I think the BW interview was also a nod to her relationship to Cohn. She was the only woman he "dated" long-term, even claiming they were once engaged (Barbara has denied this). I think the SA scene with Trump could be an assumption made from a past interview with Ivana in which she made a strange statement to the affect of: "But we were married so it wasn't rape. Marital rape also wasn't considered a crime until relatively recently in NY.
James Woods was in a HBO film 1992 called Citizen Cohn, and was amazing. It delves into what made a creature like Roy Cohn. Love your videos N & J! Thank you
After hearing you guys mention Roy Cohn often during this review, I thought you must not have seen HBO's, "Bully. Coward. Victim: The Story of Roy Cohn" from 2019, now streaming on MAX. Your review made me think It sounds like this Documentary would be the perfect film to watch after so as to give a little balance to this fiction with the facts, as Fred knew by making Roy DT's mentor and teacher it would teach him how to succeed in business without really trying and also, keep DT out of prison.
It never tells how Trump's older brother died. While watching this I assumed he committed suicide because he seemed very depressed when he goes to visit Trump for the last time. But then I look it up and he died from a heart attack which was induced from his alcoholism. It seems to me they left that out (or maybe I just missed it) because they wanted you to come to your own conclusion. But I did find the whole Trump and Cohn connection very interesting and it's not something I knew about Trump. After seeing this movie I watched some of the actual interviews with Cohn and man, Jeremy strong nailed it. It's also crazy how much Trump sounds like Cohn. They both attack and deny, attack and deny. Kinda ironic that Donald Trump stole his personality from a closeted gay man.
He was very smart and sensitive and had a bright future . He had a huge substance abuse problem and mental health issues and a sick kid. He was bullied terribly Trump's parents who were awful. Trump once said it was why he didn't really drink.
Oh wow, as soon as you mentioned "Border", my interest in seeing this latest movie of his went through the ceiling. That was such a weird, fascinating movie.
You guys nailed it. I thought the first 3/4 quarters gave him a fair portrayal. BUT the last 1/4 is what the people Needs to see. Jeremy Strong and the lead were good. I lived in New York during the Big “A” crisis and it baffled me how Roy Cohn or people like Hoover, Ed Koch and Log Cabin Republicans infuriates me every time I see and hear the echo chamber of denials. Your reviews helped me to decide to see it, for $5…..everyone in attendance looked like members of AARP. New York was so different then. It’s great that the few times he tries to go to Manhattan there are huge protests.
A well-made film! Didn’t expect to be surprised, as much as we’ve been seeing and hearing about Trump, but I was wrong. I predict Oscar nominations and wins for this film!
No honestly this and Hillbilly Elegy would be an interesting double feature idea. Surprised this hasn't been marketed though to what audience? I don't think the Trump fans would like The Apprentice. 😂
@@tigerlilly9038 While I'm sure they could not avoid taking liberty with the dialog in a large number of scenes because they obviously didn't have transcript of everything... but the major plot points are all publicly documented. Given how pro-sue Trump is, I'm sure they went through everything with a fine tooth comb to make sure it was defensible in court. Quite a number of things they did have transcripts and court testimony to go by. Point being, I'd call this a docu-drama and definitely avoid the term fictionalized.
ivana said her husband djt rayped her in 1989 (claim was published in 1993); that's why the scene is in the film. ivana retracted the claim in 2015 when djt ran for potus.
My best guess as to why Trump is chubby despite the stimulants is 1. He loves high cal restaurant food 2. Going without food for long periods then eating at random times will encourage fat storage because it thinks your like, a scavenger lol.
Actually, there’s no proof he did that to her. She amended her statement and said she didn’t mean to say rape because she didn’t want to give people the wrong impression. It was actually very defamatory for that rape scene to even be in the film smh
@@IamNateTaylor She said rape and never denied he raped her. She merely stated she did not want it to be called rape. Even after the assault she was protecting him. He probably threatened her. IMO that is the more likely outcome. Trump is a monster and I would not discount her at all. If the shoe fits.
@@IamNateTaylorTrump is still an unlikable piece of shit whether the rape happened or not. Just not a good person overall, and confused that anyone would like him as a person or even take the time to defend him against people that dislike him.
I love you struggling to say something nice about trumps looks at 15:12. 😂 And i thought Stan looked great but noticed his pink lips on closeup and thought, "Is he wearing lipstick?" Not that anything is wrong with that. 😂
Love your channel and my dream is that Joseph will do my hair one day (it's so frizzy, no idea what to do with it). Didn't watch the movie, but did you know that the assault scene is taken from Ivana's deceleration under oath? That's how she described it. I watched a review by Ben Tito Friedman and he appreciated how the movie shows the greed and ambition of people in politics, and how it ends up affecting all of us. Maybe you guys are not the target audience for this message, but I sure hope that this is what people would get from the movie 😕
I haven't been commenting lately, though I always watch the videos. I had to comment niw because thanks to Nick, I will be think "thickums" every time I see Trump.😆😂
SIDEBAR: It’s 1995, Diana Ross has a rare In store signing for her “Take Me Higher” album at Tower Records Trump Tower. As Diana sees Mr. Thing coming down his gold plastic escalator, Diana is immediately startled and insists that her security and publicity staff block trump from getting a photo opt. Anyone living in New York knew trump’s disastrous personality, BUT, seeing Diana’s reaction almost a decade before he illegally became president……..it’s something branded in my mind. It was NOT a coincidence that I experienced this horrific incident.
@@ericnelson9100 Diana remains inspiring. Her dedication to hard work, love and attention to her audience, tremendous maternal skills, etc. Diana has never been bad. Those who choose not to be present to their lives, usually are the ones looking for the negative.
I couldn't help but feel that it left much to be desired. While the film does a decent job of showcasing Trump's early years and his relationship with Roy Cohn, it barely scratches the surface of the true extent of his manipulative and self-serving nature. It highlights how Trump used Cohn to his advantage, displaying his cheapness, womanizing tendencies, and narcissism. It's astonishing to think that a man who shows such blatant disregard for others, including his own family, could rise to the highest office in the country. The film makes it clear that Trump is a con artist who has managed to deceive countless Americans into believing his lies about almost everything. It's truly unbelievable that someone with such a lack of integrity and empathy could have been the President of the United States. "The Apprentice" serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of charismatic yet deeply flawed leaders. The fact that Trump continues to have a significant following is a testament to his ability to manipulate and con people, but it also highlights the need for greater awareness and critical thinking among the public.
I saw this movie yesterday. There was only 1 other person in the theater lol. I enjoyed the movie: Stan & Strong did a great job. During a certain part of the movie, I hated Cohn and the fact that we have to deal with his crappy apprentice almost 40 years after his death. I grew up in the northeast, so I remember Trump in the 80s & 90s. Stan nailed the character.
Is this a pattern in a lot of modern films where there's a lot of tell and no show? I don't know if it's because I have a fondness for nostalgia and so extend a bit more grace to older films, but I haven't seen a film in a long time that felt fully fleshed out, what I call "seamless", and...whatever the opposite of isolated is. Everything feels like it's being told in a snowglobe rather than me feeling immersed in the world created by the story, rushed and underdeveloped...Haven't seen this film so I don't know what it's like but your discussion reminded me of my thoughts about many other films recently
There is a 2020 documentary on hbo max all about Roy Cohn - if you put in his name the doc will come up. It starts with the Rosenbergs children and grandchildren being interviewed and Cohn , 30 years later, still proud of his work to get them convicted and executed. I think as I recall they had Trump refusing to see Cohn during his dying days. I might br wrong ( my memory and substantial docs I watch). Anyways def check it out while it’s still available 💙 love u guys 🥰
😄Joseph's lack of "understanding" a scene always turns out to be the deeper more interesting pieces, which gives more weight to the overall good/bad score - this one's worthy☺
I saw it last night and enjoyed it. Mostly for the performances. I can see why you would think it's surface level (I'm assuming as I haven't finished your review yet). Most of the details I was already familiar with. I thought of it as a story of a dog-eat-dog world.
If you’re looking for a great Roy Cohn performance check out Roy Cohn/Jack Smith and avoid James Woods in HBO’s Citizen Cohn. Nicholas Von Hoffman wrote the insanely detailed biography Citizen Cohn and that HBO adaptation was trash.
VERY GOOD...🤔🤔I am not surprised about Trump's denial and attack because thats who he really is...The movie depicts exactly what his life was and still is.....thats the fact💯💯💯...WONDERFUL STORY ANYWAY
"Lies, lies and more lies" *-The Queenof Soul* JOSEPH , young Donald???? never looked better than Sébastien. Did you have a gummie or an 80s fetish? Because baaaaaaaaaby hell nah!! 😂😂
I will grudgingly see this film because my personal disdain for the subject. It will be interesting to compare the phenomenal performance of Pacino as the evil, vindictive, ugly queen, Roy Cohn compared to Jeremy Strong whom I also like. I’m going to see this thing with a very indifferent tone.
DOJ regardless of being fired which wouldn't have happened Blackmail is still a crime especially inNY so that is very much a Fantasy of the writer . Plus if they lost that discrimination case the penalty would've just been a Fine to the state . I don't understand why this movie didn't show his at this his very Celebrity lifestyle at the time he Loved by all these people especially NY would praise his Playboy Buisness lifestyle. That part of his life is the most interesting part of who he was then. Crazy because Trump wasn't fat or orange when he was married with his wife .
Yeah it's a bit of an anti fan fiction I guess. Not to be taken too seriously...but I will watch it because I like Sebastian Stan in just about anything.
Fred Christ Trump looks so much like the devil from Needful Things it is rather frightening lol... The name of this movie sharing the title of a movie about the devil and this fact is starting to add up. I am not religious but that's a lot of coincidences to ignore... Js
Sebastian Stan is a chameleon. The guy has played Tommy Lee and Donald Trump and a cannibal and super hero.

the scene where he assaults her is taken from the initial version of her autobiography verified by the editor
Regarding the Ivana(sp?) SA scene, they went by her under-oath trial testimony, that she later recanted not-under-oath.
You guys have sold me on this. I shall be seeing it when available in Australia. Definitely gonna go down the rabbit hole on Roy Cohn.
Guys your reviews are excellent. A cut above other channels.

😄Joseph's lack of "understanding" a scene always turns out to be the deeper more interesting pieces, which gives more weight to the overall good/bad score - this one's worthy☺
I saw it last night and enjoyed it. Mostly for the performances. I can see why you would think it's surface level (I'm assuming as I haven't finished your review yet). Most of the details I was already familiar with. I thought of it as a story of a dog-eat-dog world.
If you’re looking for a great Roy Cohn performance check out Roy Cohn/Jack Smith and avoid James Woods in HBO’s Citizen Cohn. Nicholas Von Hoffman wrote the insanely detailed biography Citizen Cohn and that HBO adaptation was trash.
I enjoyed the film but felt that the writer and director of the film missed out on a great opportunity to make a modern day Citizen Kane.
When will this Trump pandemic go away?!? He's a virus on the world.
VERY GOOD...🤔🤔I am not surprised about Trump's denial and attack because thats who he really is...The movie depicts exactly what his life was and still is.....thats the fact💯💯💯...WONDERFUL STORY ANYWAY
I have read his niece's book, so I already know a lot about him and the family.
I liked it mainly because its pacing and how wildly entertaining lol.
I stan Stan ... Like to see him acting ...not sure ... I think ill watch it bases on the review
Casting Sebastian Stan as Trump feels very generous to me in Trump's favor. Trump was never attractive imo
I want Nick’s intro of this film with the old 20th Century Fox logo music playing in the background.
Jose Menendez not John.
Sounds like an interesting movie

JOSEPH , young Donald???? never looked better than Sébastien. Did you have a gummie or an 80s fetish? Because baaaaaaaaaby hell nah!! 😂😂
☠️
Kudos 4 making this sound like a comedy 😂😂
That’s the ONLY reason y I’d sit and watch a film about Donald J. Trump
I am still not going to watch that creature.
It is a dark comedy, comedy+drama
I’m tired of talking about trump as much as the next person but I really enjoyed this movie idk If I’m in the minority lol.
I LOVED Border!!
"Root out the communists" oh. ok. I see where he got it from.
this link to angels in america play and movies too
I loved border !
I will grudgingly see this film because my personal disdain for the subject. It will be interesting to compare the phenomenal performance of Pacino as the evil, vindictive, ugly queen, Roy Cohn compared to Jeremy Strong whom I also like. I’m going to see this thing with a very indifferent tone.
I felt bad for Russell and Fred jr and ivana in this film
DOJ regardless of being fired which wouldn't have happened Blackmail is still a crime especially inNY so that is very much a Fantasy of the writer . Plus if they lost that discrimination case the penalty would've just been a Fine to the state . I don't understand why this movie didn't show his at this his very Celebrity lifestyle at the time he Loved by all these people especially NY would praise his Playboy Buisness lifestyle. That part of his life is the most interesting part of who he was then. Crazy because Trump wasn't fat or orange when he was married with his wife .
Yeah it's a bit of an anti fan fiction I guess.
Not to be taken too seriously...but I will watch it because I like Sebastian Stan in just about anything.

Prime❤️🩹🤍💙yes🗝️🗝️
Accepting selective medical opinions is interesting. Which person did he ask advice about HPV? Xxx
I thought it was pretty good and insightful on many levels.
Fred Christ Trump looks so much like the devil from Needful Things it is rather frightening lol... The name of this movie sharing the title of a movie about the devil and this fact is starting to add up. I am not religious but that's a lot of coincidences to ignore... Js
I wonder if this movie is helping or hindering the election 🗳️…. 🤓
Are we really suppose to believe that Roy didn’t get anything from young dumb Donald?😇
It’s giving Jose Menendez 😅❤
If trump was gay he would be a POWER BOTTOM 😁
What did power bottoms ever do to you?! Don’t drag our good names like that
@@Wraiven22 you seem very ANALytical
The very best bottom. A lot of people say so.
Great review as always. Im a trump supporter and cant wait to see this.
