AM/FM Characterization | |
| Red Hill / int_81414673 | comment |
AM/FM Characterization: Jimmy puts Stevie Wright's "Black-Eyed Bruiser" on the bar's jukebox, a song about a Blood Knight willing to remain unbowed even if it hurts like hell and lamenting the fact that it's the only way he knows how to express himself nowadays, exposing him as a Bruiser with a Soft Center. It's a pretty good interpretation of his mentality, in retrospective. | |

Ambiguously Evil | |
| Red Hill / int_853b7948 | comment |
Ambiguously Evil: The flashback to the rape and murder of Jimmy's wife seem to show only nine men, However (not counting Shane) there are twelve men in Old Bill's posse- including the late-arriving Carlin brothers and the clearly-involved Gleason. Counting down Old Bill, Manning and the Carlin’s are unambiguously stated to be guilty and unrepentant in the final showdown. Gleason’s suicide shows his guilt, and Rex says that he’s going to hell after being shot by Jimmy. The brutality Jimmy spends killing Slim, Ken and Ted implies a personal beef with them. Slim and Ted, with their businesses that would have boomed if the railroad deal went through, both would have had motives to take part in Old Bill's revenge attack on the Conway's. Slim may have only died because he called Jimmy a black bastard and tried to take advantage of a moment of hesitation on Jimmy's part though. When Jimmy enters Ted's bar, he mostly ignores Ted, until Ted tries to shoot him, although he may have just been doing that to draw out the terror. Earl shot in a split-second moment trying to ambush Jimmy under what he could have viewed as legitimate circumstances and there’s no sign of anything personal between them. The fact that Willy is shot when Old Bill, Dale and Manning were also targets could mean that Jimmy had some enmity towards him, but perhaps Jimmy simply couldn't tell who he was from the distance he made that shot. Dale does ride out for the final fight with Old Bill and Manning (his reaction to Shane’s suspicions for Old Bill’s story are also ambiguous) but that could just be out of confused desperation or to avenge the friends he'd lost to Jimmy, and Jimmy doesn’t let him know it’s coming before killing him, unlike Manning. Barlow largely seems like a Nice Guy, but when he's wounded and being carried by Shane he babbles about how Jimmy is going to kill them all, although that may have just been ordinary panic after seeing Jimmy sadistically kill Ken while Barlow was Playing Possum. It's also unclear if Jimmy deliberately shot Barlow in a way that would cause a protracted death, or if Barlow's death or survival didn't mean anything to him. It's possible that while some of Old Bill's men were definitely involved in burning Jimmy's house and raping/killing his wife, others may not have been. That being said, it's heavily implied that all of them (including supposed Nice Guy Barlow) were at least complicit in knowing that Jimmy was innocent and choosing to cover it up regardless. | |
