“[Tom] just said, ‘The credits are in the wrong place’. He looked at the whole first act and said, ‘The first act is great, it’s the best it’s ever been, you’ve fixed all those issues. But the credits are in the wrong place – they’ve got to go after the scene with Kittridge.’”
McQuarrie added,
“Just the right place for them to be. So they go 28 minutes into the movie – who cares! It’s the right vibe. You go into the credits with a win. He was right.”
