	The Usual Suspects - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Roger "Verbal" Kint (Spacey), a small-time con man, is in a police interrogation, and tells his interrogator, Agent Kujan (Palminteri), a convoluted story about events leading to a massacre and massive fire that have just taken place on a ship docked at Los Angeles.
		Verbal is sure: he saw Soze trigger the two head shots (which the audience recognizes from the beginning of the movie).
		Verbal breaks down into tears and admits that the whole plan, from the beginning, was Keaton's idea, even the emerald heist Verbal had previously taken credit for.

	Keyser Soze - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Verbal has been granted partial immunity from prosecution provided he assist investigators, including Customs Agent Dave Kujan (Chazz Palminteri), and reveal all details about his involvement with a group of notorious criminals assumed responsible for the destruction of a ship and the murder of everyone aboard.
		While Verbal is telling his story, Kujan learns the name Keyser Soze from FBI agent Jack Baer (Giancarlo Esposito), including Soze's reputation as a shadowy criminal mastermind, and demands Verbal tell him what he knows.
		Kujan confronts Verbal with the theory that Soze was, in fact, one of the criminals that Verbal had worked with; a corrupt former police officer and professional thief named Dean Keaton (Gabriel Byrne).

		In a cluttered police station, "Verbal" Kint, the pathetic cerebral palsy victim, tells Agent Kujan his version of the events that started with the line-up in New York six weeks earlier and ended with the explosion at the harbour the night before.
		Kint's first appearance on the screen is a close up of his twisted foot, limping as he walks.
		Kint, is confident enough in his disguise to tease Kujan: 'To a cop, the explanation is always simple.

		Verbal is a cripple suffering from some kind of palsy, who is a petty con artist.
		Verbal brings up the mysterious Turk assassin named Keyser Soze, who is reputed to be the criminal mastermind of this deadly California heist and a series of other ones involving the usual suspects.
		Near the film's conclusion Verbal opines, "The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist." At this point the legendary figure of Sose is referred to as the Devil, whose powers have become mythical.

		Verbal Kint is sometimes joined by collaborators on sax and trumpet and by artists who use the upstage wall as an easel, creating art that is auctioned off after the show.
		Tarkington explains that a Verbal Kint gig is "not just a regular thing"--it's a unique experience, often in more than one medium and always in several musical genres.
		Verbal Kint deals with serious issues, but its members are by no means dour.

	The Usual Suspects, an Essay by Bill Johnson
		In this story, Verbal Kint, who appears to be a weak, talkative man among a group of ruthless gangsters and policeman, is in actuality Keyser Soze, an man of inhuman will and determination.
		Verbal asks for some coffee, which is refused, but he talks until he gets what he wants, i.e., he uses his will to bend the two more powerful men in his presence to his needs.
		Verbal also tells Kujan that he's sure Keaton is dead, which leads into the next segment of his narrated story.

	The Usual Suspects (1995)
		Roger “Verbal” Kint (Kevin Spacey) with “game leg and hand,” a “shifty confidence man who tells rather than shows in order to get himself in and out of jams” is “not heroic at all” (Fried).
		The film’s primary narrator is Roger “Verbal” Kint (Kevin Spacey)—a “whiny two-bit thief,” self-described “cripple” and “gimp” (Brown), and sole survivor who seems anything but the criminal mastermind of the film’s central heist caper.
		The final rapid-fire image montage representing Kujan’s reconstructed point-of-view also present images of retreating Verbal Kint dropping his feigned disabilities and smiling enigmatically as he effects an elegant escape—images which, at the least, confirm that Verbal is not what he has seemed to be.

	Usual Suspects, The : Who is Keyser Soze? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Verbal is so-called because he talks too much so he must be Keyser Soze.
		Besides in the film Verbal says that Soze's mom was Turkish and his father was German and Soze used to live in Turkey (Istanbul), that is laughable.
		Assuming that happened in early 70s (that makes Soze born in 40's or at least in 50s so her mother must have married a German Guy in 40s or 50s) I do not think that there would be a Turkish woman married to a German guy and living in Turkey at that time.

		As gimpy Roger "Verbal" Kint, Spacey is at turns pitiable, funny, wily, and utterly inscrutable.
		In this scene, the weaselly Kint is being questioned by federal agent Dave Kujan (Chazz Palminteri) at the San Pedro Police Department.
		Kint: Keaton always said, "I don't believe in God, but I'm afraid of Him." Well, I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze.

		A massive explosion rips through a ship in a San Pedro, CA, harbor, leaving 27 men dead, the lone survivor horribly burned, and 91 million dollars' worth of cocaine, believed to be on board, mysteriously missing.
		Kint's nickname stems from his inability to keep his mouth shut, and he recounts the events that led to the disaster.
		While in stir, someone suggests that they should pull a job together, and Kint hatches a plan for a simple and lucrative jewel heist.

	Which Was Better
		Verbal Kint's limp throughout the movie makes the audience feel sorry for him.
		In a book, he would’ve been described as a cripple, and meek, but in film, the audience can see who he is. They can see him struggle, they can see that this characteristic defines the character, and they can’t forget it.
		The panic that causes Kujan to drop his coffee, and the urgency in which he rushes to the fax machine would have never been as real to a reader as they are to a seer and hearer; a movie goer.

	DVD review of Usual Suspects, The: Special Edition - DVD Town (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		The story is narrated by one of the suspects, Verbal Kint, played by Kevin Spacey (an Oscar-winner for his performance), a crippled weasel of a man unable to use his left hand or foot, who is talking to a tough, smart customs official, Dave Kujan, played by Chazz Palminteri.
		Verbal also narrates their exploits as a group after the police drill.
		They were, Verbal says, assembled for a specific purpose by a criminal mastermind, an Eastern European mobster named Keyser Soze, a kingpin of mythic proportions, a gangster every law enforcement officer in the world has heard of but nobody has ever seen, the very devil himself.

		Spacey, who won an Oscar for his portrayal of Verbal Kint, is particularly impressive, managing to be pathetic, off-handedly irreverent, and cunning all at once.
		The qualities on display in his performance make him the poster child for the film's overall tone: shifty, garrulous, and altogether not to be trusted, Spacey's Kint embodies the film's compulsive, charming will to deception.
		Director Bryan Singer handles his characters and the film's many twists with the ease of a devious master puppeteer, mixing liberal doses of film noir, humor, and intrigue with refreshing audacity.

		His Oscar-winning portrayal of crippled stoolie, Roger "Verbal" Kint, catapulted the character actor to stardom.
		Kevin Spacey is his usual self, giving a restrained but masterful performance as the pitiful cripple Verbal Kint.
		It's the most amazing thing to find out that what you think is a flashback told by a seemingly crippled and worthless guy is actually just a made up story thought up just by looking at posters and flyers on a wall in an office.

		Flash backward to the narrative; we’re meeting the small time band of crooks one by one: Keaton, Fenster, McManus, Hockney and finally, one Verbal Kint.
		Kint, a crippled small time crook, is the narrator.
		It’s the talents of Kevin Spacey as Kint and Chazz Palmentari as Kujan that makes the cat and mouse game they play as the dialogue unfolds completely fascinating.

		Possibly the most cerebral shock in cinema history, the revelation that pathetic con man Verbal Kint (Kevin Spacey) has masterminded the whole convoluted Kobayashi–Keyser Soze–Dean Keaton swindle comes as a slowly unraveling stunner.
		Verbal has finished his tale, which has taken more twists than Mulholland Drive, and detective Kujan (Chazz Palminteri) disparagingly dismisses him.
		Verbal collects his belongings and limps out of the police station.

		At the end of the film, the cop whos office was used for the interogation of Verbal Kent tells Inspector Kujan (Chazz Palminterri), that to understand his sprawling messy office, you have to stand back to really see it.

		It's not a "who done it" to them, they are not looking at every clue, because its real life to the people in the movie, but we trying to figure it out throughout the whole movie.
		OK, so if the name Verbal is equivalent to Soze, it is simply a writers/directors cue for the audience.

		Compulsively garrulous and promised immunity, Verbal narrates a brilliantly tangled tale for special agent David Kujan (Chazz Palminteri), an interrogator with an ax to grind.
		And so Verbal takes us back six months before, when five hardened criminals—the “usual suspects”--were rounded up on “trumped up” charges of truck hijacking in New York, and emerged from detention planning revenge.
		It’s Verbal’s torrent of words and the flickers of fear and cunning dancing in his stoolie eyes that keep us riveted as the plot goes its Byzantine way.
