Did you have thoughts on their connections? And then I'd love to hear from Sean on the same topic.
47:20
Yeah, I think it is really interesting because one thing I recall from sort of previous script reads is Banshee is always kind of hinted to have a lot of this backstory, and it is really good that we start to see this built out.
47:33
I think that the aggressive homosexuality of Black Tom, which I just think you cannot ignore in this, is very interesting because if you contextualize this as 1970s Ireland, Black Tom is such a sort of, he's black sheep of the family.
47:47
He's the sort of person everyone in the family would sort of disown.
47:51
He'd be that weird cousin that we don't really acknowledge or talk about.
47:55
And I think it's really interesting for a character like him to show up in contrast to someone like Banshee, who is just such a epitome of typical Irish masculinity.
48:05
I think Black Tom is fascinating, and I also love that he is clearly overcompensating by having a big, massive shillelagh because his wood is bigger and thicker than Banshee's.
