As a side note, Dennis Quaid and William Hurt had this sudden, out-of-the-blue chemistry in the last scene of the movie. They're not together much before that, and even when they are, Quaid is being all stoic and chiseled and Secret and shit. But at the end--I know this joke is beyond tired now, but when Quaid reaches into the ambulance to help Hurt out, a glow of tender joy in his eyes, I wish I could quit you, Mr. President is writ large over the whole thing. ("Are you injured, sir?" "Only in my heart, Agent Barnes.") If I'm allowed to make only one Brokeback Mountain joke this year, I deem Vantage Point worthy of it. That's how crazy it was.
