    Lovely assesment. This scene lives in my head, it's so good. It's a scene rich with background noise. The footsteps and the chatter. I love the textural sound.

    She was like “yeah whatever” and went home anyway, he got away with the murder because Precrime was down at the time. The end

    Haha I just stumbled on your channel and have been binging your videos for over an hour. I agree with almost all of your takes, and your analyses of The Joker and The Batman were especially cathartic. That said, a month or so ago I rewatched Minority Report for the first time in ~10+ years and I thought it was terrible. So funny to see how different people can be, even when they agree about many, many things. It's humbling to me, reminds me not to take my own opinion too seriously.

    I’ve been thinking about this scene all day dealing with a friends suicide and this is one scene as a child that I saw as “pure empathy” when you look at how the film opens here saying “he knows don’t go home” gives you a glimpse of what the audience just saw but what’s even more incredible is that the women she reaches out to could be any of us dealing with anything at all.

      I always thought the woman was having an affair lol, and she was warning her not to go home or the husband would probably kill her. And he would most likely succeed without Agatha back at the lab. So Agatha just saved her life.

      What gets me… is the implied backstory. Agatha and the other precog’s gifts were being used to prosecute pre-crime, when a warning, such as “he knows… Don’t go home” would illicit the same result with no incarceration.

    Agatha is very powerful. She is reeling from the chemical shock and trauma of being pulled out of the tank. Yet her powers are incredible, even as she’s struggling to come back to life.
    Spielberg, who’s always been fascinated by psychic and alien phenomena is one of the all time masters on the subject.

      She’s cheating is the first idea most people think of here (me among them), but it could be anything. Maybe her husband is abusive & she’s been planning to leave, but he’s now lying in wait-the most dangerous time for a domestic abuse victim is leaving the relationship

    This sequence is quite good but the final payoff of the so-called five-word-story at the end of it only has the impact it seems to have on You because there is an unusually good and very albinoey white female actor telling a stereotypically (at least in the long and at many times disgraceful, yes, if you actually paid any careful critical attention, tradition of ethnocentric Western-film-making) "submissive-emoting" Asian female actor (who is a placeholder For All Asians/Chinese maybe?) What To Do in a briefly micro-aggressively (though somewhat sublime) instance of Helpful Charitable Advice from a clearly disadvantaged-disabled "physically-and-emotionally distraught" white female who is arguably the best actor in all of The Minority Report, next to Tom Cruise perhaps, (although in actuality, it is just a very professionally-plum dramatic role for any good actor (male or female, black or white, purple or green ) to undertake in the context of virtuoso Spielbergian directing, so there.
