Why gamble with money, when you can gamble with people's lives? , 2007-12-19
"I don't have to believe you. I don't care if you are innocent. I'm your mother, your father, your priest." This is what defense attorney Martin Vale (Richard Gere) tells his client, Aaron Stampler (Ed Norton), as they are preparing to defend him against charges of killing the Archbishop of Chicago.
Of course, later, Marty says: "I believe in the notion that people are innocent until proven guilty. I believe in that notion because I choose to believe in the basic goodness of people. I choose to believe that not all crimes are committed by bad people. And I try to understand that some very, very good people do some very bad things."
So--which one is true? Nobody is quite what they seem in this legal procedural that will keep you in your seat and your finger away from the 'Pause' button for its entire 2 plus hours' duration.
First, you see the kindly Archbishop attended by a heavenly choir at a charity function. The city loves him. But, is his public face the same one he wears when he's all by himself with the altar boys?
Did bumbling, stuttering Aaron kill the Archbishop. Nobody really wants to believe it.
Does Janet (Laura Linney) truly tow the company line as the assistant prosecutor? Well, and is she truly no longer interested in Marty?
The plot's got more twists than a pretzel factory. I no sooner thought I knew what was going on or what someone was going to to when they changed it on me.
"Primal Fear" is one of the best written and acted courtroom dramas I've seen. My only question to myself is why the heck did I wait this long?

I just recently seen this movie and I was completely blown away. Specifically by Edward Norton's performance. He is always an outstanding actor but in this movie he truly shines. Richard Gere doesn't do a bad job either. The movie has a great story line and it is the best courtroom drama I've ever seen.

Man questioned over vicar's death - Thursday, March 15, 2007 BBC News, 2007-03-15
A man is being questioned after a vicar was found stabbed to death in the grounds of his south Wales church.
Father Paul Bennett, 59, died at St Fagans Church in Trecynon, near Aberdare, Rhondda Cynon Taf.
The father-of-two and grandfather was found dead by his wife Georgina at about 1450 GMT on Wednesday.
A 23-year-old local man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of murder and is being questioned. Police said they were not looking for anyone else.
SOMETHING TO PONDER..........This movie is the first thing I thought of when I saw this headline.
Primal Fear, 2007-03-09
I enjoy mainly true stories, but this movie is excellent and as many movies I have watched over the years, the ending really surprised me.
