I still want to believe... (SPOILERS)


This is a testament to norton's acting because rewatching this I still WANT to believe in Arin. I've seen this movie 3 times and I believe Arin each time. He just seems like a sweet kid. It's crazy. Anyone else feel like this??


Reedus/Fassbender/Hiddleston

You're not alone. I really liked the "good" Aaron, so I didn't want to believe that he didn't actually exist. That is what I think is so great about this movie and Norton's acting. It's so convincing it fools you over and over again.

Same thing happened in Shutter Island. I was hoping DiCaprio was right all along. You can believe what you want to believ, don't let them fool you!

His best performance ever. And for being his first starring role - he was just phenomenal. I was only 14 when it was in theaters, and I still remember the big reveal - my entire group were all shocked and awed.
