Actor: Edward Norton

Edward Norton was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his first film, Primal Fear, which requires him to perform a deception on the audience as well as the characters.

American History X earned a Best Actor nomination, and he gained substantial muscle for it. Fight Club gave him the narrator, and the performance is deliberately unremarkable so the other one can be.

He has a persistent reputation for involving himself in editing and rewriting, which has cost him relationships with several productions including The Incredible Hulk.

Birdman and Moonrise Kingdom show a comic register, and he directed Motherless Brooklyn from a novel he spent twenty years adapting.

The Italian Job (2003) Review

The production closed the intersection for seven days, used 300 cars to recreate the gridlock, and ran the sequence with the kind of practical-effects commitment most modern action films have stopped attempting. Gary Gray made a film that loves its…
