Newcomer Edward Norton became an instant movie star in 1996 with three amazing performances in Primal Fear, The People vs. Larry Flynt, and Everyone Says I Love You. Make that four amazing performances, because in Primal Fear he plays a young man named Aaron Stampler whose personality seems to be divided in two: one tough and cynical, the other shy and fearful. Richard Gere plays Martin Vail, the slick Chicago attorney who defends Aaron on charges of brutally murdering an archbishop who may have sexually molested Aaron and other boys in his parish. The courtroom suspense is nail-biting as the jaded hotshot Vail comes to care about the case and the defendant. This is one of the better legal dramas of recent years, with plenty of juicy twists and turns. Frances McDormand (who was soon to win an Oscar for Fargo) plays a psychiatrist. --Jim Emerson

Summary: Whose Tricking Who?
Comment: Great movie! Top notch acting, perfect story with twists and one really big twist that makes you go... "wait... WHAT?! I need to re-think things here!" Richard Gere is awesome as a hot shot lawyer. Edward Norton... this is arguably his best role ever. He goes all out in this movie... from shy and quiet to... well, the exact opposite of that. He was very believable in this role. This is a great movie to watch with someone who has never seen it. It's a drama and you have to watch it to make sure you know what's going on, but if you get hooked into it right away this movie will seem like it's over very quickly. Time goes fast when you are enthralled. Get this movie if you haven't seen it yet. It's great.
