the sixth sense (1999)
Cole sees dead people.
As soon as the credits started 
rolling, I knew I had to see this film again. I loved it from start
to finish. M. Night Shyamalan establishes himself as a master of genuinely
crowd pleasing, quality filmmaking.
It's the story of Cole and his special ability to see dead people.
Bruce Willis is a distinguished psychiatrist who takes on his case.The
film is suspenseful, well-put together, and an all-around joy to watch.
It's even better the second time around.
THINGS I LOVE
  The
twist. Period. End of story (literally). It's one of the few films where
no one spoiled the ending for me - and once you see it, you don't want
to spoil it for anyone else.
Donnie Wahlburg
as Vincent, the kid that Bruce didn't help.
Toni Collette.
She does an amazing job with the accent and I just love her in this
role.
Tommy Tomasino
as the Village Idiot in the school play. That made me so happy. Why
does retribution feel so good?
FAVORITE MOMENTS
 The
kitchen cabinets and drawers. Cole's hands pressed on the table. Very
cool.
The one step
forward/one step backward game Malcolm plays with Cole.
The stuttering
Stanley episode.
The staircase
at the birthday party - very cool circular staircase. The shot of the
red balloon rising up is fantastic.
Malcolm attempting
to tell Cole a bedtime story in the hospital. Then when he reveals his
secret "I see dead people."
When Cole and
his mom are coming out of the grocery store and she gives him a  ride
in the shopping cart - it's just a great moment between mother and son.
At the gathering
for the dead girl Kira when Cole is going into her room - the shot of
his hand reflected in the doorknob as he's reaching for it - very cool.
Cole telling
his mom about seeing dead people. It gave me little goosebumps.
When everything
adds up. When you realize the twist. It's fantastic. The subtlety of
it is amazing.
