Summary at a Glance

ROYAL TENENBAUMS, Bill Murray, Danny Glover, Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Luke Wilson, Grant Rosenmeyer, Ben Stiller, Jonah Meyerson, 2001.

The Royal Tenenbaums boasts a stack cast that includes Hackman, Owen and Luke Wilson, Anjelica Huston, Bill Murray, Gwyneth Paltrow, Danny Glover and Ben Stiller.

The movie - which parallels a real-life incident during the Cuban Missile Crisis - takes place on a US nuclear missile submarine and sees a young officer (Washington) staging a mutiny to prevent his trigger-happy captain (Hackman) from launching the boat's weapons before confirming his orders to do so.

The 2003 movie sees Hackman portray shady jury consultant Rankin Fitch, with Hoffman playing rival attorney Wendell Rohr in the trial against a gun manufacturer.

John Grisham's legal thriller The Firm was given the silver screen treatment in 1993 with Hackman going toe-to-toe against Tom Cruise.
