I called it as well but for different reasons. A family member told me they knew who the bad guy was in the first Knives Out movie because it was the only character without an iPhone. So when Ed Morton’s character literally has NO phone I guessed it was him. I missed all the other hints as well!

It was a lot of fun reading the Benoit Blanc parts of this in his voice. Also, great analysis

You could have thrown The Score in there as well. Very astute, good sir.

Im so glad I’m not the only one who figured Edward Norton was the bad guy! I knew bc of what I remember his roles in Fight Club and the Italian Job. Edward Norton just plays bad guy roles really well haha.

Love the evidence breakdown! New Rockstars did a great breakdown of the movie on their YouTube Channel!

What I need to know is: why is his last name Bron?
I think I know the answer: there is a line in the opening scene where Lionel is going through all Bron’s crazy fax ideas and he says “never bet against Bron.” Need to dig deeper into whoever wrote the movie and who their favorite basketball player is.

Norton was just on the Smartless podcast and it ruled. They missed the chance to go deep on his well documented history of double crossing, however.

I need more Shea content in my life! This secret email club is the best thing going.

I felt like the most obvious clue was Edward Norton's horrified face when fake Andi first arrives on the island.

I’d like a book or short story of an equally charming Shea Blanc. He switches accents mid sentence. An enigma. But a genius. So an audio book is what I’m asking for.

Even in movies where he's the hero, he still manages to double cross. He double crosses the Nazis in American History X!

Agreed, Nortons got that face of dude up to chicanery. Also, Janelle Monáe was pretty good in the movie, playing twins is tough.
Gorgeous movie all around, I feel a third one has to be in the works.

My husband looks a lot like Edward Norton. So I spent the whole moving asking my husband why he was behaving that way

It's like a LA Weekly/Grantland/Ringer article for the secret email club! My favorite thing about the Norton character are the malapropisms that Blanc identifies as evidence of his being "just dumb." The mastermind who is not a mastermind. I taught Johnson's first movie Brick in HS film class, and you can see in that film all the stylistic nuances in Glass Onion. Best movie I saw in 2022.

Elon Musk fans were upset as they thought this movie took a shot at their hero. I thought they were just being "snowflakes". Then I saw the movie and it absolutely takes a shot at Elon. But, also, Elon Bros are being too sensitive.

This is a really sound foundation for "Edward Norton's Character Did it". Whether its chicanery, shenanigans or noble efforts, its probably Edward Norton. I caught it pretty early, but it was all still unfolded in a very amusing and interesting manner.
