Joshua: Difference between revisions

* [[Dawson Casting]]: 12 year old Jacob Kogan plays 9 year old Joshua.

* [[Failed a Spot Check]]: {{spoiler|kid throws his grandmother down the stairs in a public place in broad daylight. Witnesses...}}

** Vera Farmiga who plays the mom in Joshua also plays the mom in ''[[Orphan (Film)|Orphan]]'. Coincidentally both characters have their share of mental instability problems and at odds with their mother-in-law

** Also Star Trek fans may recognize Joshua as playing Young Spock in the 2009 film. Oddly enough, Young Kirk was played by Jimmy Bennett who played Vera's non-evil son in the other evil kid movie she was in.

* [[Lack of Empathy]]: Joshua

* [[The Plan]]: {{spoiler|All of Joshua's actions are to have him sent to live with his uncle.}}

** Joshua throwing up at the start suggests the "peeing on the rug" scene from ''[[The Exorcist (Film)|The Exorcist]]''.

** The inter-titles showing the span of time (each marked by a piano chord) suggest the passing of the days in [[The Shining]].
