Edit cast list for:
The Sixth Sense (1999)?
Trivia:
The movie's line "I see dead people" was voted as the #100 of "The 100 Greatest Movie Lines" by @##Premiere##@ in 2007. It was voted as the #44 movie quote by the American Film Institute (out of 100). In 2007, the American Film Institute ranked this as the #89 Greatest Movie of All Time. This was one of the newest entries on the list (from films which were released between 1997 and 2005). `~Liam Aiken~` turned down the role of Cole Sear. `~10982~` pitched the film as a cross between @%The Exorcist%@ and @%Ordinary People%@. Counter to customary filmmaking technique, this movie was actually filmed in sequence. Is one of only four horror films to receive an Oscar nomination for Best Picture; the other three were @%The Exorcist%@, @%Jaws%@, and @%The Silence of the Lambs%@. `~10982~` wrote the role of Malcolm Crowe with `~1509~` in mind. Although Cole is supposed to be 9, `~10983~` was actually 11. Reputedly, `~10983~` got the role of Cole Sear for one of three reasons: First, he was best for it. Second, he was the only boy at auditions who wore a tie. Third, `~10982~` was surprised when he asked `~10983~` if he read his part. Osment replied, "I read it three times last night." Shyamalan was impressed saying, "Wow, you read your part three times?" To which Osment replied, "No, I read *the script* three times." While in New York auditioning for @%Bringing Out the Dead%@, `~10984~` also auditioned for this film as an afterthought. She said the scene in the car toward the end of the film, which was the audition scene, was the scene that really drew her to the film. She has said that she was so moved by the emotional resonance of the story whilst filming, she didn't even realize it was a horror film until after its release. This was the first of two movies that `~1509~` owed Disney after he caused another production, @%The Broadway Brawler%@, to be shut down due to him firing the director. He also was paid $10 million, half of his usual salary at the time. SPOILER:According to `~10982~`, the movie was inspired by an episode of @##Are You Afraid of the Dark?##@ called @#Are You Afraid of the Dark?: The Tale of the Dream Girl#@ directed by `~David Winning~` in which leading characters are ignored by somebody and don't realize that they are dead until the final moment. In @#The Tale of the Dream Girl#@, a brother discovers that only his sister can see him and she ultimately shows him his own obituary.:SPOILER SPOILER:While circling a passage in the notes, `~1509~` does so with his right hand. `~1509~` is actually left-handed; he learned how to write right-handed so that viewers wouldn't notice that his wedding band was no longer on his hand. Willis also draws the circle clockwise (like a left-handed person would), while most right-handed people would draw it counter-clockwise.:SPOILER SPOILER:In the scene when Cole says the famous line "I see dead people", the camera does a closeup on `~1509~` face. Producer `~986~` was worried that might have given the game away. It implied that Malcolm was a dead person. Fortunately, none of the audiences in the test screenings or afterwards picked up on it.:SPOILER SPOILER:`~10982~` deliberately used the color red to depict when the world of the living and the world of the dead would crossover. If red was in a scene where that was not the case, he would change it.:SPOILER
