The lawyer played by Richard Gere defended a bishop murder case. The murderer is a young man with a dual personality. He is ignorant and desperate. As the case is peeled off, the truth presented at the end makes the viewers hooked. It's only now that the first-degree crime in 1996 has been committed, and it still feels brilliant, showing the eternity of the blockbuster. Edward Norton's performance was really eye-catching. Allen had pure eyes and dull expression, completely an innocent boy, while Roy, who changed in an instant, had a fierce expression and sharp eyes, and the switching between the two personalities was naturally smooth.

Primal Fear quotes

  • Judge Miriam Shoat: [in her chambers] If you think you're going to my courtroom to wage personal vendettas and settle old scores, you are sorely mistaken! I'm striking Shaughnessy's testimony from the record as irrelevant and I'm holding you in contempt in the amount of ten thousand dollars!

    Martin Vail: So... what you're telling me is I can't get a fair trial in your courtroom? You're also in league with Shaughnessy and the entire city counsel at covering all this up?

    Judge Miriam Shoat: Be very careful what you say in here, Mr. Vail! You're on dangerous ground here!

    Martin Vail: Fine! Do you want me to make that check out to you judge?

  • Martin Vail: [in Judge Miriam Shoat's chambers] You OK?

    Janet Venable: Am I OK? Do I seem OK? I get attacked by this sick twisted... I've lost the case and out of a job! So no, I'm not particularly OK, but you won! Justice was done, so who the hell cares, right? Congratulations! You knew didn't you? You knew if I went after him he'd wig out up there.

    Martin Vail: I knew he'd come out if he was threatened.

    Janet Venable: Who better to do that than me? You used me.

    Martin Vail: Yeah, I did. I had no choice, what did I use that was so terrible? I knew you'd do your job and I knew you'd try to win the case. What's wrong with that?

    Janet Venable: I lost my fucking job.

    Martin Vail: And that's good. You should've left them years ago.

    Janet Venable: Oh, Jesus! Why do you think you always know what's best for me?
