The Sixth Sense Pitch Meeting

The Sixth Sense starring Bruce Willis and Haley Joel Osment was one of the most popular movies of 1999 and was a launching point for M Night Shyamalan’s twist-ending based career. The movie follows Malcolm Taylor, a totally alive child psychologist that’s trying to help Cole Sear, a little boy with the ability to see dead people.

The film was a cultural phenomenon, but it definitely raises a lot of questions. Like what exactly ARE the rules of being a ghost in this world? Why do they only seem to apply to Malcolm? Why are all the ghosts so hostile towards Cole if they actually just want to talk? How is Cole going to help ghosts that don’t have currently active easy-to-solve cases? Does this whole movie just exist as a set-up for the big twist ending?

To answer all these questions and more, step inside the pitch meeting The Sixth Sense! It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience!

"The back, sir, please get off of it"
Lmao, I love Ryan

[jamesnewton]

"How did that happened?"
"It happened off screen"
Pretty much the whole movie

[brokeneyes]

The idea ghosts only see what they want to see followed by ghosts only seeing failing marriages and their own hangings is tragically human.

[Me-wkix]

I always thought that instead of "see what they want to see" It should have been "see what they expect to see".

[leemiller]

"So how does that work?"
"Unclear!"
M. Night's movies in a nutshell

"Eyes on the twist please; this barely matters." I think you nailed the philosophy M Night works by with the plots and characters of all his movies.

“His change might’ve died too”

😂😂😂😂

[srr]

“So he’s gonna shoot Malcolm and himself.”
“Oh god. In what order?”
“The only one that makes sense.”

*"Eyes on the twist please"*


Literally every director's excuse for a plothole

[amber..]

“Does the recorder have a sixth sense too?” Hahahah

[sandeshhegde]

"If she knew she was being poisoned why didn't she use that knowledge to you know not die?"
I died from laughing

[fmafelumo]

"Oh, so, so his change may have died too?"
Ok I almost choked and died on this one.

[LyraTyrell]

"Did she watch the tape while she was dead?"

To be fair, Bruce Willis listened to that recording dead too lol.

[cjthrill]

New catchphrase: "Eyes on the twist."

[CgGoil]

"This might be one of the last movies where he...tries..." That was beautiful!!

[KarstensCreationsKC]

"I'm told he's just about to stop caring... this might be one of the last movies where he... you know... tries."

[TheRibottoStudios]

"Oh having a twist ending is tight maybe it should be like a regular thing."
"But wouldn't that get predictable?"
"I dunno."
"Fair enough."

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

Do _Snatch, _ just so we can hear you say "snatches are tight."

Usually I'm right with you about what you choose to poke at, but Cole's arc ends when he convinces his mother, who is at her wits' end with his whole "ghost thing, " that he actually can see them by telling a story about his grandma. It's a really great scene and Toni Collette is amazing in it. So...kinda feel it deserves some credit.

I interpreted the “ghosts only see what they want to see” as a selective eyesight. Malcom won’t see his wife grieving for him and talking about his passing but he can’t make her seem any happier
