Above and beyond. Both of these actors died because they were heavy smokers. The look of guilt/sadness on Patrick's face represents how he made the connection how he died and also what happens if you let your addiction consume you that even in death your cravings can still haunt you. This was one of my favorite scenes because he uses the abilities he learns here to help him for the rest of the film.

This scene could have been so forgettable, but the writers and actors were able to make it incredibly special. The subway ghost had 5 minutes of screen time and showed anger, fear, care, happiness, and finally sadness. This is the true way of telling a story, making a character feel "alive"'.

[@josebro352]

@@christopherbrock8913 I agree. Though maybe your uncle didn't know how scary some scenes would get. Perhaps he thought it was just a sappy love story with a ghost. I remember taking my little brother to see Lord of the Rings when he was eight. I had no idea how frightening those orcs were in some of the scenes. Or how scary Shelob the spider would be. Still though, he loved it even though he was only eight.

[@ProfessorTakatoPalm]

In this movie Vincent Schiavelli proves to me that there are no small roles for an actor to play. Even with just 5 minutes of screen time he played a very important character that taught Sam Wheat everything of how to be a ghost and how to move objects. We also learn a lot about him. It’s sad to say that his character was a true lost soul.

Did anyone else feel like the dialogue was very reminiscent of when Morpheus was teaching Neo? Subway guy: “you think you’re crouched on that floor? Bullshit” Morpheus:” you think that’s air you’re breathing?”

[@nat998]

Yes I also noticed this. Also the scene where Neo visits the Oracle and meets the psychic spoon-bending kid. He asks him how he bends the spoon: The boy then says “Do not try and bend the spoon, that’s impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth… there is no spoon. Then you’ll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.” It's the mind that bends, not the spoon. Reminded me of something similar said by Uri Geller that I recall from reading his autobiography years back. He said something very similar.

The Subway ghost was murdered by random muggers who did it simply to steal his cigarettes. He was in the process of lighting up when they robbed him and pushed him onto the tracks. He's angry because of how senseless his murder was. He was robbed and murdered because of cigarettes.

[@PurpleNiobe]

Interesting theory! I always thought he was a mentally ill gentleman who may been pushed...but he may have honestly tripped and fell on the tracks. Due to his mental illness (paranoia) he has a hard time accepting that he tripped and insists he was murdered, which is why he gets so defensive when Sam questions him. In his living years, he probably got a lot of "Are you SURE that's what happened?" so it's natural he misread Sam as doing the same thing. Him longing for cigarettes is just him longing to do a thing he enjoyed while living.

[@damontoledo8253]

He killed himself. The only reason he said someone "pushed" him is because he was still drowning in denial and shame for what he did. He says "it wasn't my time" because he absolutely regrets his decision. He still hasn't come to terms with it and wished he could take it back. Him jumping into the train was him reliving his death. Suicidal people always lie to themselves. I know, because I tried taking my life once. He wasn't murdered.

He’s schizophrenic too and for some reason most schizophrenic people love smokes. It makes it double sad that he still is being affected mentally by his cravings and also by the mental illness but there’s nothing he can do about either since he’s dead and can’t smoke or take medication. His untreated mental illness is probably his unfinished business and why he can’t cross over so he will probably be stuck there forever. “Studies across 20 countries showed that people with schizophrenia were much more likely to smoke than those without this diagnosis. For example, in the United States, 90% or more of people with schizophrenia smoked, compared to 20% of the general population in 2006. It is well established that smoking is more prevalent among people with schizophrenia than the general population as well as those with other psychiatric diagnoses. There is currently no definitive explanation for this difference. Many social, psychological, and biological explanations have been proposed, but today research focuses on neurobiology.”

The number for the station where they got off at is “42”…..42 is the answer to the “ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything”

[@TheBuri00]

I bet the dolphins that disappeared after being thankful for all the fish knew the real meaning 😂

[@Gnomleif]

In Japan the number 42 is often associated with death, so double meaning? Potentially accidental ? Hm... 🤔

[@chooseyourpoison5105]

Or it could simply be the station at New York's 42nd Street 🤣 Not everything has to be deep and meaningful

[@VITAS874]

And 46 is?

[@truefilm6991]

The only problem I have with this otherwise great scene, is that you can see the wheels of the screenplay grinding. First there is conflict (this is my train), then the guy becomes Yoda for a moment, complete with some exposition - and when he serves no more porpose, he gets angry again and jumps out of the screenplay. I would have liked some more conversation and the main character Swayze trying to help the guy.

Hollywood doesn’t pay writers ✍️ enough this is timeless and brilliant writing. I miss the magic of good writing 😢

It's such a sad scene because we know he is a good person that has lost his mind being in this limbo for too long. I wish that his character could be freed and sent to heaven at the end.

When I look up the definition for mind, association is made to your brain, HENCE mental. For example: Mental illness. Mental illness is treated as though it is chemical imbalances in your brain. If your mind was truly separated from your brain a head injury would have no effect. There's that word MENTAL again as in MENTAL retardation. The brain is the organ of the mind. If you no longer have a body, and your brain is inside your body, how can you then have a mind without the functioning organ of the mind?

[@notsure8513]

So the Guy on the Couch was just a ghost. That explains everything.

[@brucea9871]

That's why he could see Patrick's character but nobody else on the subway (the people who were still alive) could.

Sadly, the part where Vincent Schiavelli laments over cigarettes hints to his actual death. He died of lung cancer.

[@ChiefManny1]

Patrick died from cancer also. Before he died, believed he got it from smoking also. Apparently he was a heavy smoker.

[@colliric]

No, he was murdered by muggers. He was pushed onto the tracks. They robbed him of his cigarettes. It was a senseless murder.

One thing that i noticed later on was when the Sunway ghost was walking backwards saying"you gotta take all your emotions love hate and push it way down to your pit of your stomach and let it explode like a reactor" the number 42 shows posted on the walls and pillars, which is "The ultimate question of Life, The universe and everything else" as said by Deep Thought on Hitchikers guide to the galaxy. Just something i noticed.

Vincent Schiavelli was one of those actors given lots of small roles in many many films and always memorable for them.
