The Badness of Tom Cruise's Performance

Tom Cruise did so many takes that Kubrick might have intentionally used bad takes of his because that was the performance he wanted. Cruz is trying to do 50 to 90 takes of every scene and has no idea how to even shape the character, which seems like maybe that's what he wanted. But Kidman in that scene is like musical to me. Like I can hear security and commitment. Frank Ocean very famously like sampled this whole speech in a song  because it's so iconic and weird.
