Factual error: After Hunter shoots the serial killer on the roof, the camera turns to catch her preparing for her next shot by pulling the hammer back. Since her pistol is a semiautomatic, the hammer would already be back and ready to be fired.

Directed by: Jon Amiel
Starring: Sigourney Weaver, Dermot Mulroney, Holly Hunter, Harry Connick Jr., William McNamara
Helen Hudson: He really wants us to think what he's doing is art.
Question: Who is Conrad? Harry Conick, Jr.'s character writes him a letter at the end, and there is a Conrad character listed in the credits, but I haven't been able to find him.
Answer: Conrad is the man that breaks into Helen's flat and leaves the book. Happens just over 1 hour into the film.
Answer: I don't think Conrad appears in the film. Earlier in the movie HC Jr says he has other "disciples"; Conrad seems to be the new recruit to replace the just-killed McNamara character.
Answer: I thought that it was Peter Kurten (Foley) that broke in and left the book. However if it was Conrad, then he does not appear in the flesh in the film.

You are correct. I just rewatched this tonight on Tubi.
