to me a facist is some one who feels that people are not intellegent enough to take part in choosing leaders, and voting, and making choices in life. wayne felt that a small group of people should make those choices for the masses. people like that i see as facists, no matter how right they are; people are not intellegent enough to do most of those things.

i see your point in van stratten. i always liked the boob. he fits in perfectly in a welles film; the romantic lead no one wants to be. welles never gives you any one to identify with and root for. that would be too easy. no one wants to be kane, or the sappy leland, or georgie, or eugene morgan, or mr. wilson, or ohara, or macbeth. no one wants to be his othello, or van stratten, or vargas, or k. prince hal is the closest to a character that an audience might root for and want to live through his experiences, but not really. not like in a hawks, or ford film.
