And Mark's going to love this movie when it comes out not long after.

And he is going to deliberately like try to play act as Dirty Harry.

Like people, especially early in his career, he's like often kind of LARPing specifically as Dirty Harry.

And he'll compare himself to Dirty Harry a lot.

He really wants you to think he's cool.

That's some dork shit, Robert.

It's really dork.

Seriously, something.

serious man do we that's shit come on bro come on like yeah it's it's it's sad and it just the the number of like toxic men like this who you could just you really needed like an older brother who would be like hey man i know you've like gotten a lot of picked up a lot of shit from like comic books and like movies about like what men are supposed to do and like i

And that's all wrong.

You need to calm down and get comfortable in your own skin.

You're not missing anything because you didn't get shot at.

I really get the feeling there was not any kind of positive male influence in his life who could have modeled proper behavior.

So he's doing these things like, well, I guess I go to the Marines and that'll make me a man.

You know, and then later it's going to be, I guess I'll become a cop and that'll make me a man.

And you, you get the feeling this is a guy who doesn't know who he is and who, who has some, it's not even that.

This is a guy who knows a little of who he is.

He knows he wants to be an artist, but he can't do that.

And so he never gets to find out like more of the person that he might otherwise be as he falls into pretending to be this violent macho asshole.

And gradually that becomes him more and more.
