Gonna say this very vaguely so nothing is spoiled. I think he knew what was coming in the end and chose to accept his fate and "stand like a man" he wasn't stupid. He wasn't naive.
For what it's worth, Tom Hardy's voice was inspired by Marlon Brando. Also, Jodi Comer's voice was a dead-on impression of the real-life woman her character was loosely based on. There's a fascinating interview with Jeff Nichols where he plays a bit of an audio interview with her, and it's haunting how good Comer did.
I'm very glad you said it too! Jodie worked so hard on that accent and it's so impressive!!! She did not want an Illinois accent....she wanted Kathy's accent! Remarkable....how hard she worked on it! And if you didn't see or HEAR her in Killing Eve...then you don't know squat about Jodie!! Not you but the people saying her Kathy accent is weird....thanks for your comment...❤
Austin as Benny was perfect. Jeff needed someone who could play a believable biker who was aesthetically beautiful yet emotionally unavailable actor. Kathy and Johnny were both in love with Benny. They both wanted him 100%. Benny was Benny.
the film is wonderful. I watched it three times. especially after Jeff and Tom's shot-by-shot breakdown of the film at Esquire Studios. I really liked the movie.👍👍👍
I felt this movie was a step backwards for Jeff Nichols. Cinematography and production was really well done though. The entire cast seemed like they were on autopilot. 6.5/10
I can’t say I’ve seen any other of Jeff Nichols’ films so I can’t comment there but I thought the acting was pretty great. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your opinion👍

@@scarharting5577 oo yes Leonardo DiCaprio, Meryl Streep play themselves as if originality in acting only means playing themselves in acting. How dumb are you? And why I am going that far, Austin Butler should be compared with the actor below Jared Leto level, even Jared Leto has originality.
