An Edward Norton prediction
15 September 1999
I predict that in the future we will be seeing alot of Edward Norton in alot of juicy roles. Who would have dreamed the baby faced kid in 'Primal Fear' could have pulled off a performance such as the one he gave as Derek? I'll bet there were alot of auditions for this role. I'll also bet that, once Norton did his thing, it was a slam-dunk. Simply incredible and, disturbingly, incredibly believable. Then again, he was aided by a fantastic script. Playing the role as a very intelligent, though misguided young man, I found it hard to argue with his logic, twisted as it was (think about the scene at the dinner table). That bothered me. This guy is going to go a long, long, way. Maybe another Robert DeNiro. Just hope he doesn't O.D. on gangster roles. Too much of a good thing, ya know?
