Lots of talk of scientology on hubski of late, mostly regarding Tom Cruise... and some Beck Hanson.
Cruise hasn't made the best films, though I definitely played "Tom Gun" as a kid with my cousins, it isn't an Oscar worthy performance. His role as Frank T.J Mackey was though. This clip that I've posted is a good example of his performance. In this scene Frank is falling apart and you can see the cracks forming in his veneer. It's a solid acting performance imo.
mk recently pointed out that this could be because he is "unconsciously channeling some scientology". -I think there could be some truth to that.
It's a great film, it's a great scene and I think it proves that there could be some acting depth to Cruise. Can anyone think of any other Tom Cruise performances that are worth mentioning?
