Primal Fear


Edward Norton is an incredible actor. I really think RIchard Gere is overrated, and this was the first movie i've seen with edward norton in it, and he was GREAT. Terrifying, but great. I love law&order SVU, but i dont think i would have watched this movie unless Olivia demanded it as she did, but in the end, i'm glad this movie was picked to be viewed. Norton did a really good job of freaking me out. It's unfortunate that Frances McDormand's character sounded like she knew what she was talking about, so I trusted her professional opinon, but I really didn't expect for him to be as manipulative as he was. Who would expect this cute little stuttering southern boy to be insane, literally in more than one way, or in only one way...he's still freakinb me aout and cofusing me about it. That should serve as evidence enough of his great performance, I'm still flabbergasted by the duplicity in it. And in each scene, it was so natural for him to switch back and forth. It was great.
