In the movie The Usual Suspects, Roger
"Verbal" Kint (Kevin Spacey) answers Dave Kujon's (Chaz Palminteri)
question: "Who is Keyser Soze? He is supposed to be Turkish. Some say his
father was German. Nobody believed he was real. Nobody ever saw him or knew
anybody that ever worked directly for him, but to hear Kobayashi tell it,
anybody could have worked for Soze. You never knew. That was his power. "The
greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."
The Usual Suspects is a great movie, but it's a
work of fiction. American Gangster,
however, is based on a true story, and not only speaks to the discussion of the
devil's approach, but also reflects wonderful aspects of the salvation
relationship.
