Billy Burke played Charlie Swan in the Twilight movies, so when Ted Crawford says that there are “a lot of vampires out there” to Lt. There is a slight reference to James Bond in the movie towards Willie in court by the judge, but that was only because Rosamunde Pike (Nikki Gardner) was in the movie “Die Another Day”. The names on the boxes are of the cinematographer, set designers and second assistant directors if you look close enough. Nikki and Willie have an immediate attraction to each other and have to find a way to balance their personal lives with work.īasic movie facts: There are several boxes that can be seen in the background when Gosling sits in his office. Rosamunde Pike plays Nikki Gardner who is Willie’s new boss. David Strathairn, plays the District Attorney who plays an important role in Willie’s decision in taking on the court case and getting advice about the case he’s taking on.

Rob Nunally who is the detective (and hostage negotiator) that is having the affair with Ted’s wife. The woman who is the middle of all this due to her affair with a detective is Jennifer Crawford, played by Embeth Davidtz. Ted Crawford is so meticulous with his so-called perfect crime that he toys with Willie’s ego like a master at a chess game with his every move.

It didn't seem logical anyway that that many people would be out at a hospital in the middle of absolute nowhere.Īnyway, Fractured is just one of the many Netflix originals headed your way. Did you see that particular Fractured ending twist coming, or were you expecting something else? At one point I thought maybe Ray had imagined the entire hospital. Just don’t turn around and look at what’s in your backseat. Like this movie, you could just drive off into the sunset believing whatever you want to believe. In this movie, in some weird way, the bending of reality and truth is kind of relevant to the times we live in. Ray doesn't have a solid grip on reality, so I'm wondering if he'll still see that as the corrupt world trying to gaslight him. Or someone will ask about the live (or maybe dying and on the way to death) patient in the backseat, and the two dead bodies in the trunk. You have to imagine the police will show up at some point. At the beginning of the movie, he’s browbeaten and down. He wants to be a father and husband who did the right thing. He’s just a guy that wants to be a good dad.

I saved them from the bad guys at the hospital.’ But then we kept it rolling, and in the last frames, you start to see his face fall, like it just dawned on him. It’s a sense of accomplishment and being a hero. ![]() The last frame of the movie is a close up of Ray’s face after he’s just sung a song to his child in the backseat and his wife. ![]() While at Fantastic Fest, director Brad Anderson - who previously directed The Machinist, Session 9, and Beirut - talked to Fresh Fiction about the ending and the choice of that final shot. But then his face gets a darker look for the last frame - a screenshot of that look is posted in the photo above.įractured premiered at Fantastic Fest in September before its October 11 debut on Netflix.
