Shawshank to Apt Pupil

Just finished "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" and loved it. So far, I'm not a big fan of "Apt Pupil." Todd is one judgmental little turd and I want to slap him. He's grossed out because an old man hasn't shaved for a day or so. Really, kid? You woke him up, bothered him at his home, and he is supposed to meet your standards of appearance?
