15 Minutes / int_45bdaa0e	comment	Just Ignore It: The movie is about a pair of foreign terrorists who seek to videotape their murders, give the footage to the news, and become infamous that way. The ad campaign used the line "the only way to stop them... is not to watch."

15 Minutes / int_60194b82	comment	Spanner in the Works: Emil's plan to plead insanity and get off scot-free for murdering Eddie Flemming probably would have worked, had Oleg not approached Hawkins outside the courtroom and given him a tape proving Emil was sane all along. The resulting confrontation ends with both men dead.

15 Minutes / int_7febc23b	comment	Establishing Character Moment: At the passport-stamping office, Oleg shows off both his obsession with cameras and movies and his ditziness when he thinks that saying he and Emil are friends counts as a legal relationship. Hawkins is introduced complaining about poor ratings, saying that violence is the key to good television, and being fairly insensitive toward his associates. Eddie is introduced dunking his head in a sink full of ice water and then meticulously combing his hair and putting in eye drops to look good for the cameras, only to then do a good job on the bust.
