Is Sean a worthy audience surrogate?
He is thanks to Ritter. As an actor, he has a striking small screen presence and is very, very engaging. Whether Sean’s about to propose to his girlfriend or pulling a gun on an air marshal, you get the sense that his brain is working in double-time to figure out what will happen next. This is Everyman territory and Ritter seems ideal for the part. Sean is always seemingly one step behind.
