Be thankful you do not get it... personally, I like Smith's films and I have a real distaste for pompous or bloated or artificial films (I find Spielberg horrible... and films like Crash seem to be so cliched I would prefer 90 mins of Smith's d*ck and f*rt jokes). I would also say Gere has made films far more offensive than hours of Smith's expletive filled monolog (that "bad cop" film of his was without any redeeming qualities... I am pretty sure he cursed in that one :-).While I applaud any return to "wit, insight, and eloquence", your own insight of "the whole rotten structure he spent years building was suddenly shaking" is at best melodrama... profanity has its place... as does gutter humour... no doubt they worked for Shakespeare.
