That, of course, is Norton's greatest feat as an actor. He's a juggernaut of emotional range and complexity with a porcelain visage. He'll kill flies, oh yes. And he'll also embarrass any actor onscreen with him who isn't as dexterous or willing to get their hands dirty. Norton, thank God, will probably never be in a movie like You've Got Mail because his intensity would just liquify all the fluff.

...days before Sisler started, Bruno took him to lunch. He then asked a question that had somehow not occurred to him before: How old are you, anyway? Bruno was floored by the answer. Don't tell anyone, the bank chief warned. Sisler's youth could embarrass co-workers and, worse, anger Bergen's board...
