>>1540365You would be portraying Glass as both victim and villian this way. More a savage force of nature than a civilised man. There was plenty of moral ambiguity and pain in his past to work with, to show him transforming from a respectable Pennsylvania ship captain, to a Galveston pirate, to a Pawnee captive, to a Rocky Mountain fur trapper, to a vengeful revenant.
Of course if you only want to filter everything through the screen of trying to get a movie to survive producers and appeal to the average mouthbreathing movie-goer, there is no point in continuing.
