Universal has released an extended 8-minute long video clip from Charlie Wilson’s War. And this is possibly the best scene in the film, with Philip Seymour Hoffman meeting with Tom Hanks’ character for the first time. I wish they had released Hoffman’s hilarious angry award worthy speech from the beginning of the movie, but this one is also good. Watch it now below.
