20 Things You Didn't Know About The Sixth Sense

3. Foreshadowing The Twist

The Sixth Sense
Buena Vista

Sure, the famed twist ending of The Sixth Sense of course revealed that Bruce Willis’ Malcolm Crowe was already dead when he first met Cole, but there were numerous moments throughout the movie where there are hints and clues as to the twist that was awaiting audiences at the end of the film.

For example, the production did its very best to make sure that you never once saw the shadow of Willis’ Malcolm throughout the picture. To be fair, there are one or two moments that seemingly slipped under the radar, but for the most part Malcolm doesn’t cast a shadow.

Additionally, when Cole and Malcolm enter the bedroom of the deceased Kyra, it’s only Cole whose reflection is captured in the shiny doorknob.
