I've heard Stephen Baldwin talk about The Usual Suspects fellowships who meet and try to pin the Keyser Soze identity on characters other then Verbal. I know that Verbal is the true Keyser Soze, but does anyone know any of these alleged proofs and particulars for other characters being Keyser Soze?

Quoting Kevin Spacey: Bryan Singer, who directed that film, had managed to convince every one of the major actors in that movie that they were in fact Keyser Söze. I remember when we screened it for the company of actors, Gabriel Byrne was stunned that he wasn’t Keyser Söze. Went out into the parking lot and had an argument with Bryan Singer. For a half an hour. – Oliver_C Feb 6 at 23:43
Any ideas how he did that with the other actors? – Matt Feb 7 at 3:00
Just took them aside and told them and then asked them to keep it quiet? – Stefan Feb 7 at 11:59
A man with a limp is unlikely to be a conman ('beautiful people' are generally better at it), and a conman is unlikely to move to a gang that uses violence (con-men typically pride themselves on their complete lack of violence). So the true Keyser Söze seemed obvious to me. OTOH the entire plot seemed pointless since he exchanged one scared illegal immigrant who could identify him, for two local cops who could identify him. Where is the benefit? – Andrew Thompson Mar 9 at 9:04
@AndrewThompson I think the benefit was that the cops weren't witnesses to him actually doing anything. – AntonChanning Mar 26 at 15:47
