thomasshelbyltd:The thing that strikes me every time I go back to play [Tommy], is he’s always burdened with this strategic intellect, he cannot but see opportunities and people for his own gain and his own strategy.And I think he’s actually struggling this year, dealing with the fact of having real belief – because we dealt with it last year, I think Jessie [Eden] even spoke about ‘before you went away to war you were a communist and you supported this cause and you had these values, and where are they, are they dead or are they dormant or what?’ And I think we’re beginning to see him struggle with the fact that they are long held beliefs, and they are something that he does deep down believe in.Yet he went on this path of extreme capitalism and violence and gang life, but, deep down, I think he does still have these values and he’s trying to reconcile himself to that fact – can you have them in a pure way or can you have them in a strategic way, or can they exist side by side? -- source link
