Minority Report scene - Anderton visits Iris Hineman

Three is a weighing variable.

Best scene in the whole movie. She does an amazing job of portraying an insanely smart, (and partially insane on a psych level) former scientist. She manages to capture being haunted by what she created while having put her feelings away once it was done. Someone who shows she cares because she helps him when she wouldn't have to, yet is still being kind of a jerk about it by taunting him as she does. Lois Smith nails this thing!

Not a whodunnit but a whoisgonnadoit

Amazing scene amazing film that I have experienced in theater.

When I saw this movie in 2002 I made it my mission in life to become this lady

This is a masterful scene of exposition. So many plot mechanics slowly revealed in an organic way; instead of a chore, it's a thrill to discover. Reminiscent of Indiana Jones explaining the Ark of the Covenant to the Army Intelligence officers.

Evil Activities Murder

I keep coming back to this scene and how brilliant this scene written, the range of emotions she gives during this chaotic circumstance he is, discovering the secrets between human nature, gifts and human error leading to evil acts, and how justice system can still have a massive dark side when manipulated even when they seem like they have all the answers and the perfect code…..just like human beings there is always very dark chance of something being wrong when things are uncovered. Her intelligence is quirky, sharp, motherly, cunning, depraved, and calculated with a twinge of guilt.

Dr Hineman has some classic movie lines. Great film. A masterpiece.

I love how there's chill background classical music while she's talking about serious and creepy stuff

I’ve always felt her performance here was Oscar worthy

Plz share the link of whole movie plzzzz

Great movie.

Nature always takes its course ,trying to play god never works out

Just like R2 holds the plans, Agatha holds the Minority Report. When the MacGuffin is a character, the audience cares about it more

Had the urge to watch this scene again. Was thinking about how exposition is handled in films. And I remembered this scene being a huge exposition dump yet felt very natural and smooth. So just wanted to hop back in and see the genius of how Spielberg handled the exposition dump here with his signature camera movements and blocking.

This scene has stuck with me over the decades, like many from the film. This actress's performance is one of many in the film which are both captivating and deeply unsettling.

Great movie. Still don’t understand why they don’t have WiFi, though; hell, WE had it when the movie came out.

That’s Lois Smith; she played Partia in Five Easy Pieces and Aunt Meg in Twister.

I love Lois' delivery and her clever asides—"your illegal climb over my wall", "excuse me a former policeman," "actually I think you'll have to run out"—just spectacular. Her improvised kiss was the icing on the cake. Actors like Lois Smith and Diana Rigg easily show younger actors how it's done.

I just seriously had to see this clip....I am not a female, i am gifted, but i keep thinking what its like to be female and gifted....lol.....like what she says near the end of this clip......its always in the more gifted...then Tom Cruise is like....which one is that....and she says "the female"....lol

This film becomes one of my favorite by Spielberg with every single watch. Criminally underrated!

Lois Smith hive, rise!

I know people like to say, “This person or that person should get a Oscar nomination” for something. But I was so invested by this actress she’s deserving of some kind of acting award for this.

You’ll find few scenes that show just how great of a craftsman Spielberg is better than this one. This whole scene is a 7-minute exposition dump, the kind of thing that can stop a movie dead. In Spielberg’s hands it’s visually interesting, tightly edited, and moves so damn fast. He is a consummate filmmaker.

It wasn't until I saw this scene that I realized how incredible Lois Smith is. I've seen her in other things, but she was remarkable in this scene.

Some1 plz explain that random kiss by Iris bc it was incredibly weird

Iris is clever and creepy. Her isolated greenhouse is wreathed in gray light and she's surrounded by writhing sinister plants, making her resemble a Shakespearean witch or Greek oracle who warns the hero of his inevitable doom. She's a dark mentor to John, guiding him towards the truth while cautioning him of the the risks he must take along the way.

Even in the future plants are thriving! Very encouraging to our species as a whole!

Would love to have a greenhouse like this! There were actually more real carnivorous plants in this scene than CG ones.

THIS MOVIE PLOT IS BRILLIANT AND THR ACTING, DIRECTION AND PRODUCTION VALUES ARE FIRST CLASS

her pace comes from decades of experience, she uses vocal variety and movement to break up the beats without wasting time - think on it, if most movies spend too much time on a moment of explanation, they lose the audience. she has SO much to get through so she knows to get through it quickly - but with experienced ability to make so many various layers of explanation, it moves swiftly but as easily and genuinely as possible while building the stupid music tension. LOIS SMITH, MASTER ACTOR, YET NOT KNOWN. her first film was also James Dean's first

Im wondering if she knew about Lamar Burgess killing Ann Lively and how dirty it all became, she wants Precrime brought down and the Precogs saved, and gives just enough hints including the “minority report” for an ace detective like Anderton to be motivated in setting off on his quest to figure it all out.

I’m confused by the kiss

This is an underrated classic, back when Tom was putting our one epic movie about every Christmas or so. I never much liked the man, but he is a phenomenal actor and imo this was my favorite of his.

ugh, feminists

We all need to find our Minority Reports.
