I love the characters all culminating in this scene. Ronnie and Kates character are both in the park because of seperate reasons, and they come together in this scene, their storylines collide for a minute or so.
For those who keep asking what happened; he is a child molester. His mother's wish (before she died) in a note was for him to be 'a good boy' so he castrated himself (cut off his own testicles) and he prolly didn't pass out until later because he hadn't been making such sudden movements that could cause this. Ronnie, your an indecent freak, but Jackie Earle Haley; love yah.
the sad thing is, a lot of them never want to hurt children, but since there's no way to cure them, they either punish themselves, or do end up hurting young kids. At least with the ones who punish themselves, whether it's turning themselves in or hurting themselves, you can tell they are at least good people.
Jackie Earle Haley, almost quit acting after many years off screen. imagine the waste of an actor that would have been. this is one of his finest performances ever. shame he never won the Oscar, he deserved it x
I have a major problem with this movie. The sex offender character was highly stereotypical. Guys like him are the minority. However, the way society treats him in the movie is pretty accurate. If you want truth about sex offenders check out the site "Once Fallen"
Way to leave your baby in the swing lmao.... Yes I know I missed the point of the scene... but that was really dumb. The stupidity of movie characters never ceases to amuse me.
...Tonight he could save a life. He knew Ronnie had done some bad things in his past, but so had Larry. You couldn't change the past, but the future could be a different story, and it had to start somewhere.
The most amazing fucking thing now is we have real humans committing in postive manner...paedophism is a mental disease..sort of a Dutch minded openedness...Bravo
Do you know how hard I cried when I was watching this movie! God! I HAVE never wanted to cry for a pedophile before... But god! Jackie just made me break down and cry sooo hard! He played such a deep, believable, character that I just believed the whole thing and wept!
Great movie. Sooo fucking deep and sad... And gosh! Thnx for posting this part! IIt's the most important part in the movie in my opinion.
@shegwin Oooh! I haven't seen that movie in forever!!! I have a copy of it, and I haven't messed with it in years!! That is a sad/good and deep movie. Props to Kevin Bacon for playing such a dark/deep role like that! Him and Jackie... Amazing!
The whole time she was talking to him I was thinking that someone was going to nab that kid. I'm sure she probably didn't want her kid around a pedophile and all, but you gotta keep an eye on your kid. Also the little girl looks bored as hell.
Amazing film, you feel so much empathy for Hayley's character, Ronnie. I belive that everyone deserves a second chance, not matter how bad the thing is that they have done. Some people are just bad people, but lots aren't.
This film is fantastic, but so sad. I love Mr Haley (even though he plays a child molester in this film, it's confusing) and seeing this makes me feel so sorry for him. He makes me want to cry.
that's what i'm sayin dude, he's like the next Johnny Depp, albeit not a good looking one... but that's what makes him unique, here you have this creepy little guy that kicked ass as Rorshach and apparently (although I have not see all of this film) was good in this movie. He's going to RULE as the new Freddy Krueger!!!! Plus he's from San Antonio, TX!! So am I! Yee haw!!!!!!!!
I would have to disagree with just one thing- Jackie Earle Haley is goddamn beautiful.
He has a lot of raw emotion that Depp doesn't risk, and he pulls it off stunningly. I'm eager to see him playing in Human Target, a bit of a lighter character than he usually plays. His 'tragic' is amazing, and I bet he's just as good at 'funny'.
this is true, and ive seen the first episode of human target, and he was good in it, but there wasnt a whole lot of him in it. hopefully, the later episodes will have his character more involved. hes going to be in shutter island too!!
@spiritsword83 interesting u mention depp: Johnny depp was acompanying Jackie to the original "NOES" because Jackie wanted the part that Wes Craven then gave to Johnny because he was "dreamy; so it's ironic that over 20 years later Jackie is picked to play Freddy krueger in the remake :D
Judging by the amount of blood, he cut off his penis. The testicles don't have many blood vessels and removing them is not generally life-threatening. Removing the penis would cause massive bleeding and certain death if not treated quickly, as the penis has many channels for blood and many blood vessels within it.
I begin to watch this film last night, but I have to stopped because was to late for me. I hope to get it this weekend because it impressed me a lot. Over all the way wich shows the differents points of view, making falls simplistic thoughts.
.... he cut his cock off thats what castrate means ya failure... btw this scene is very sad but i lol'd just a little inside when i saw that he chopped his dick off... i know that its a bad thing dont yell at me... i bet the bloopers for this movie are fucking hilarious
I've not seen this film in it's entirety yet, so I can't speak for the film, but whenever I've heard the term "castration", it generally refers to the removing or inhibbiting the function of the testicles, and generally not the penis. I assumed he just removed his balls in this clip, but is there evidence that he cut off more?
He was leaving signs around his house and telling everyone. His mom tried to stop the cop and the cop accidentally killed his mom. His mom told him in her will to be a "good boy'' so he castrated himself.
It's all over the news that he's a convicted sex offender and was released on parole and he's been "harassing" Ronnie night and day ever since. He feels that Ronnie is a severe threat to the neighborhood and it was due to this harassment that Ronnie's mother passed away.
The most amazing fucking thing now is we have real humans committing in postive manner...paedophism is a mental disease..sort of a Dutch minded openedness...Bravo
Such a sad moment. Yes, Ronnie has done some bad things in his life... but he suffers from a mental disorder that he cannot control and I can't help but empathize with him. He longs for a normal life but knows he can't have one because of his urges. It has made me think of many sex offenders differently now... instead of instantaneously demonizing them, I can now understand that some of them are truly sick and in need of serious medical help. It's sad to see someone struggle with this condition.
I can still remember seeing this in theatres, and feeling the entire audience recoil in horror when they realized what Ronnie had done. This movie haunted me for years, and I've only just now rediscovered it.
That must of hurted why the fly f*ck did he cut off his balls???
