Primal Fear (Spoilers)

So, after the board telling me how this was Ed Norton's best performance I finally got around to watching Primal Fear tonight. Overall I liked it a lot, I thought the story was interesting and acting was top notch, for the most part.
The only thing that threw me off was Norton's character in the end. You're telling me this 19 year old kid can pull off a stutter and personality change well enough to fool a neurologist?
Also, this is kind of a law question, but since Norton told Gere immediately after the courtroom incident, would there be enough time for Gere to do anything regarding his sentencing?

I watched it for the first time not long ago. Great movie. I thought Norton did a great job.
I just assumed that neurologists are always looking to diagnose someone with something. So given the opportunity, she did. Plus, he was pretty convincing.

Primal Fear = before the days of internet pr0n, you had to get your own cast

He was a sociopath. They can do crazy shite, like beat polygraph tests, fool court-appointed doctors, and literally "become" other people.

If he's so cunning to pull off the murder and charade that follows, how the frick was he so inept that he allowed himself to be a participant in the Priest porn which is the catalyst for the whole story? It's not like these are separated by years of time. He's the same age from murder to trial to ooops you got me Mr. Vail. I planned this all along. Why was I part of the porn collection? Let's not ask that question. HA.

I work with some people who could do this. It's innate and they've had the ability since birth. It's just a form of charisma if you really think about it.
