Do you think Les Miserables is .about how prisons are cool because one of the main characters is a prison guard?
Edit:
One battle after another has a guard of a concentration camp in it, so I hope you didn't watch that.
Fifth element has a charismatic depiction of an evil capitalist, that's bad.
Sinners shows the Clan and I remember it as if one of the Clan guys seems kind of chill on the first meeting, that's too bad.
Lolita isn't about how cool it is to be a pedophile.
Frankenstein isn't about how awesome it is to be a shitty dad.
Richard the III isn't about how cool it is to lie and cheat and kill your friends and family.
Engaging on a surface-level with text of "what profession does this character have?" isn't a good way of going about the world, your politics or sharpening your mind.
Actually, Fifth Element is bad because it was directed by a pedophile who multiple women have accused of SA.
i assume there are "javert was right" weirdos?
Anything is possible, chuds love starship troopers and jarhead. I'm personally a bit of a Richard III was misunderstood-weirdo.
Edit: I seriously dream of seeing a version of Richard III that focuses in on his body dysmorphia, his weird misogyny and how his mother has hated him from birth (maybe, there's so many ways to read their relationship. The way she talks to him at the end, the way she mistrusts him... Was it always like this, or is it a result of his actions? What came first?)
There's some cool Norman Bates story there. The guy is physically capable enough to be a great warrior, he can seduce the widow of a man he killed, yet he's apparently so ugly that no woman could ever love him - even just physically. Despite the fact he's rich as fuck and brother to the king.
He's charming as hell, but says noone could be his friend. He's a great administrator, but talks about how he couldn't be. There's such an interesting thing going on with him, and I've never seen it dealt with in a way that scratched the itch. The Ian McKellen movie is great, but he's a villain there, not some sad creature or abandoned kid, which I think he could be. That play is so good.
I mean, Richard the 3rd the real guy was slandered fucking hard by the play. Shakespeare was motivated in many was to shit talk the ancestors of non-Tudor royalty
