Things I Learned from No Way Out

- When the Secretary of Defense is about to go up to his mistress's apartment and sees a man in the dark from a seemingly short distance, he doesn't think about asking him something like who are you or why are you watching me?
- When Farrell meets with Brice and Pritchard and Farrell realizes it was Susan that was killed and excuses himself to go to the bathroom, you might notice something is amiss and would want to question him further right then and there.
But this remains a great movie and this thread is quite entertaining!

- The best way to identify a Pentagon employee who is a "person of interest" in a murder/espionage case is a room-to-room search instead of letting him see photos of employees on a computer terminal. (Again, the search pool could have been narrowed by pointing out that he was male, young, wearing a Naval uniform, and possibly which male naval officers signed in for work that particular shift or day.)
I was 16 when I saw No Way Out and even then, I thought it was ridiculous that they didn't ask the dock worker what the "Son of a bitch who rented my boat" was wearing.

The only thing missing from "No Way Out" was a Kenny Loggins soundtrack. That being said:
59. Witnesses perceive Kevin Costner as "average."
60. The Secretary of Defense has a hair-trigger temper (good for the electorate to know). And is jealous and proprietary. YET the sight of a man staring at him on the sidewalk in front of the alley behind his mistresses' house fails to enrage him. -

- You can earn a Navy Cross and an Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal as well as spending six months or more on a deployment without being awarded a Sea Service Deployment Ribbon.
- The US Navy's Summer Service Whites have the same protective properties as personal body armor (Farrell performs all kinds of stunts and never gets hurt).
- Any unsolved crime in DC can be blamed on "Yuri." Dead hooker? Yuri! Dr. Hessleman is killed? Yuri!
I'm just expressing my opinion.
You may all go to hell, and I will go to Texas.

- When reaching out to strangle your mistress, if she's just out of arm's reach the first time, draw back and reset like it was all a big misunderstanding, then lunge at her for the second try.
- If you're an undercover Soviet agent who's dating the mistress of the Secretary of Defense, make sure to rocket down the George Washington Parkway in a bright red Alfa Romeo convertible together, eating bugs off the windshield. Nobody would notice or remember that.
