Go back a little bit further to another Morgan Freeman movie - Se7en (1995) and a big plot point was that it is unthinkable for big brother to be keeping records of what library books people are checking out. Times sure have changed...
- echelon_musk 8mo agoHaving rewatched that movie recently I found it absurd that all the killer would have had to have done to evade capture was purchase books with cash.
- badpenny 8mo agoSlight digression and spoiler alert, but, IIRC, wasn't it a significant part of the plot that he wanted to be caught?
- 542354234235 8mo agoI'm going off memory, but I thought the library books led them to John Doe's apartment, something he was not planning for, and required him to change his plans somewhat. He did want to be caught, but not that soon, before he had finished his work, and required a hurried escape.
- badpenny 8mo agoAhh, okay. That makes sense.
