Spiritual Successor | |
| Richard Jewell / int_27a42ebc | comment |
Spiritual Successor: To Sully, another Clint Eastwood film. Both are biopics, and both about people who are initially acclaimed as heroes but are scrutinized in short order. Sully less so, since there were no fatalities due to his actions and wasn't railroaded by the FBI, but he still got formally questioned about if he could've done things differently. | |

Small Name, Big Ego | |
| Richard Jewell / int_28a5213a | comment |
Small Name, Big Ego: Watson warns Jewell of letting a little power get to his head. Years later, we see that Jewell has indeed embellished his authority as a campus cop after getting fired from other law enforcement jobs for much the same reason. Notably, after his heroic act of kickstarting the evacuation and getting heaps of praise, Jewell is quite humble and tries to direct praise away from himself and towards other emergency personnel. | |

Not Helping Your Case | |
| Richard Jewell / int_33f1c576 | comment |
Not Helping Your Case: Watson is repeatedly irritated when he finds out about something unfavorable from Jewell's past (such as impersonating an officer) that only reinforces the narrative that the FBI and media have made of him. One of the worst ones is when Watson tells Jewell to make sure any weapons he owns are visible and unhidden during the FBI search, and Jewell pulls out a veritable arsenal of high-powered guns. | |

| Richard Jewell / int_3aec9e5e | comment |
Properly Paranoid: Jewell has a very good sense of when he's in danger. At the Centennial Olympic Park, he finds a suspicious backpack and insists on following protocol and forming a perimeter despite the cops thinking it's just some drunk teens' beer-filled bag. Then the bomb guy finds the pipe bombs. One cop promptly states that he's never giving Jewell shit for anything ever again. When the FBI tries to dupe Jewell into waiving his Miranda rights so they can interrogate him without a pesky lawyer getting involved, Jewell gets suspicious about their actions and calls in Watson. | |

Skewed Priorities: The FBI starts wondering if Jewell had an accomplice, which turns into a rumor that his "accomplice" and he are gay lovers. At the final interview, Jewell is initially more concerned about dispelling the rumors that he's gay than to clear his name. He quickly gets focused, though. | |

Heel–Face Turn: Kathy pulls one when she actually makes the walk from Jewell's confirmed location to the pay phone where the 911 call was placed, and realizes he couldn't have made it in time. She tries to convince Shaw of her findings, and he responds that he already figured it out. Instead of believing Jewell is innocent, however, Shaw feels the only thing it proves is he had an accomplice. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Richard Jewell / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: A small one but it's there: Meeting with the FBI once last time, Shaw again grills and rants about how Jewell had to be the one who placed the bomb or must have had an accomplice. Jewell however asks rather bluntly if the FBI has any actual evidence to arrest him and proceeds to eviscerate Shaw and the FBI for focusing so much on proving he put the bomb when all it will do is make people be afraid of preventing attacks like what happened. Shaw immediately has nothing else to say and Jewell concludes they are done and leaves, with Watson knowing they won. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Jewell knowing that Watson likes Snickers because of spotting used Snickers wrappers in his trash can. This sets up that Jewell has high attention to detail, which helps him notice the suspicious backpack a few scenes later. Kathy Scruggs mocks her journalist comrades for the fact that her juicy crime stories overshadow their articles, then flips off the office, establishing her as an obnoxious hotshot. | |

Dramatically Missing the Point: Jewell, while accompanying the FBI agents to what he's told is a recording for a training video, is accosted by reporters outside his home who are asking questions about whether he's a suspect, or has been told to leave town. Jewell just simply answers "no" to their questions without realizing the extent to what they're implying. And when someone asks if he's under investigation he replies "Well, I assume they're investigating everybody who was at the park." | |

Karma Houdini: In the film neither the media nor the FBI are shown having to answer for their actions. In real life, this was played depressingly straight for the FBI, but not for Kathy Scruggs. The case, and her reporting, ended up tarnishing her reputation, and she never recovered. She died of a suspected drug overdose in 2001. | |

He proves to be Properly Paranoid during the games, but before that we see him being suspicious of completely innocent people. | |

| Richard Jewell / int_eeb4a5eb | comment |
Anti-Climax: After a few months of putting Jewell's life through hell, Shaw enters a diner where Jewell and Watson are having a meal and nonchalantly gives him a brief letter saying he's no longer a suspect. No big press conference, no apology from Shaw- in fact, Shaw is still convinced he's guilty as hell. Jewell even has to ask Watson if it's truly over, and Watson has to reassure him that they won. When the real bomber is caught, it's handled simply by Watson approaching Jewell at his workplace and informing him that he's been captured. | |

Digging Yourself Deeper | |
| Richard Jewell / int_f09afb0 | comment |
Digging Yourself Deeper: Jewell is a master of accidentally reinforcing the FBI's idea that he's a psychotic police wannabe that engineered the whole thing. After a while, the only advice Watson keeps giving Jewell is to just stop talking to the police and FBI entirely. | |

| Richard Jewell / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: Jewell goes through a lot of crap, but is ultimately able to ride out the media circus, land his dream job as a police officer, and live long enough to see the real bomber be arrested. | |
