      I’m pretty sure the bad guy was the fucked-up system that tortured him into his behavior. He’s a victim as much as any of the people he hurt.

        Being a victim doesn’t mean you are not also an abuser. Not all victims become abusers. We all live with the same fucked up system, but we don’t all fall down. We don’t all turn to violence and self-righteousness. Douglas was the fucking bad guy. Try watching it from his wife’s point of view.

      Yeah, originally I was going to say I don’t agree at all with his character, but the progression is so great, leading up to the “I’m the bad guy?” moment.
