My favorite Brimley scene is the Absence of Malice Inquiry.



From that one scene we got:

“You had a leak? You call what's goin' on around here a leak? Boy, the last time there was a leak like this, Noah built hisself a boat.”

“We can't have people go around leaking stuff for their own reasons. It ain't legal. And worse than that, by God it ain't right.”

"You ain't no Presidential appointee, Elliott. One that hired you is me. You got thirty days.”

"Now we'll talk all day if you want to. But, come sundown, there's gonna be two things true that ain't true now. One is that the United States Department of Justice is goin' to know what in the good Christ - e'scuse me, Angie - is goin' on around here. And the other's I'm gonna have somebody's arse in muh briefcase."

"Tell you what we're gonna do. We're gonna sit right here and talk about it. Now if you get tired of talking here, Mr. Marshal Elving Patrick there will hand you one of them subpoenas he's got stuck down in his pocket and we'll go downstairs and talk in front of the grand jury... Elliot? Jim?... Fine. All right, Elving, hand whichever one of these fellas you like a subpoena and we'll go on downstairs and talk in front of the grand jury."

Might as well transcribe the whole scene!

RIP

Loved him in "The Firm".

"Not just screwing, Mitch. All sorts of intimate acts, oral and whatnot, that can be particularly hard for a trusting wife to forgive and IMPOSSIBLE to forget"

I watched The Firm last week and Brimley was in that 1992 Tom Cruise movie.

He looked 85 then.

Wilford Brimley was only 2 years older than Robert Redford in The Natural IRL.
