Edward Norton Vegetarian “Stone” And Why Vegs Still Get Omega-3 Happy

To prepare for the role in Stone, where a convict is eligible for early release for covering up the murder of his parents with a fire, Edward Norton traveled to talk to those behind real bars for answers. Real prisoners provided so much insight, Norton said 60% of the lines in the movie were changed based on their answers. If you’re looking to stay out of trouble, for example, be a vegetarian.
“At one point one of these guys was talking about a fight, and how he just had to let it happen,” Norton told Frothygirlz. “He said, “I’m three months out from review, I can’t get a ticket, I can’t get anything. When you are short time, you have to be a vegetarian.”
“I said, “What?” and he said,” A vegetarian, you can’t have a beef with nobody.”
While veggie has taken a place as slang in the slammer, those avoiding meat may be happier in general than those who don’t, thus making it less likely they’ll be picking a “beef” with anyone and jeopardizing a lot of things, including early parole.
