Jokes aside, and I have no problem spoiling a 20 year old movie so if you do, fuck off, but the question of WHY is never really answered in anything resembling a satisfying way, Other than that, Phone Booth is one of the best fucking thrillers in the world, beat by beat, there is never a SECOND of that movie you go "this is a good moment to light a ciggie" or check the time or whatever. It's a near perfect movie ruined by the absence of motivation.
But since you bring it up I gotta bring up a movie people only hate, instead of the plot hole, because of, only the lead actor, and unfairly, because he is FANTASTIC in it, even if its the only thing he's ever done fantastically outside of that 70s show.

don't know if it still holds up but I have forgotten about it more than once, I do remember checking it out, revisiting it in my early to mid 20s and going "oh, this holds up"
Watched the Butterfly Effect (Director's cut version) for the first time a couple of years back and enjoyed it. It was refreshing how nasty and dark it was and I can't remember if there were any jarringly silly moments to break up the tension, which is all the rage in faggoty contemporary media, because God forbid you have someone dwell on a negative emotion for more than fifteen seconds.
