Except Brolin's character doesn't actually care about the communism, he's just waiting for Clooney's character to stop talking (if you look at :44 Brolin stops looking at Clooney and is just kinda zoning out not even paying attention). What gets him mad is when he says something bad about Nick Skanks (at :55 the second Clooney mentions Nick Skanks, Brolin's eyes suddenly whip back toward him and he starts squinting). If you look at the movie as a metaphor for Christianity, Brolin's character is Jesus (e.g. the Lockheed guys are Satan tempting him in the desert) and Nick Skanks is God (the unseen yet all powerful head of everything), so in essence what pissed Brolin off is Clooney committing blasphemy.

One way to read this scene is that Eddie's actions kind of confirm what Baird is saying. He gets Baird to comply using physical violence, legal threats, and bullying. And he tells Baird that his value is in serving the product. He doesn't really argue with Baird, he just says "so what".

It's about a lot of things. Biggest thing I got from it is that it's about the importance of being good at what you do. It has an awful lot of content about capitalism and communism, but I wasn't clear if it had any actual meaning or was it all just gesturing at the debate. By the logic of the film, Capital works specifically because Eddie makes it work, and for no other reason. And that's Eddie being good at what he does, just like everyone else would ideally be.

@bens5859 3 жыл бұрын

I thought it was about whether or not Eddie Mannix is a good man. He’s a crucial cog in (what the Coens no doubt believe to be) the evil machine of capitalism. But he has no idea he’s in a machine. We see in the confessional scene he has no idea what he’s doing is wrong. (“I struck a movie star in anger” is all he has to say of the fact that he perpetuates an oppressive capitalist regime by violently suppressing Whitlock’s dissent.) Yet, from the point of view of someone inundated with capitalist ideology, Mannix is almost Christlike in his goodness. He sacrifices the LM gig to do “the right thing.” (From the perspective of Marcuse, his gang of communist screenwriters, and probably the Coens themselves, this is actually the evil thing to do. But Mannix believes it to be good.) And you know, if all of what Whitlock says as he kneels before Christ were true-if life really were about the strength of the soul and not material well-being, if evil really was the intent to do evil and not the evil that one happens to bring about-then Mannix is indeed a good man...and we want to believe Mannix is good, and we want to believe maybe we can be good too, and why shouldn’t we believe...? Faith!

Meanwhile, the communists are portrayed, at best, as vacuous idiots, and at worst as kidnappers and thieves.

I thought the whole point of the film is that it's about the Coen brothers' own love/hate relationship with the film industry.

@@ShadowSonic2 no. Mannix' views are Christian, everyone that he had met were stuck within their own self interests to seek a way to benefit from the opportunity. Just like the rabbis and gentiles to the studio execs and the communists. All human nature is the same and doesn't discriminate regardless of what theology or philosophy you belong to. For Mannix, this was an issue as he believed he saw godliness in everyone and that no-one was beyond forgiveness or faith though he doubted himself because of the role in this evil system that he was shamfully apart of as his journey juxtaposes the Roman Clooney plays in the picture. He was a fixer of problems who had a role in society, much like Jesus did but unlike Jesus all he could do was abide to the times he was living in just like the Roman in the film. There is a reason why the communists in the film were not portrayed as righteous members of the working class fighting for the rights of the proletariat screen writers but instead as a desperate collectivist union of elitists pseudo intellectuals that don't shame away from socially degenerative ideas such as altruism. It's because they were trapped in the same hypocrisy as Mannix! Not to forget to mention the fact that they were also traitors to America in the movie just like Hollywood actually was back in the early 1900s. This movie is even contextual about it. It takes place during the McCarthy era for a reason. McCarthy was fighting the communists in kitsch films such as Ben Hur and, like in this film right here, "Hail Caesar!" in a pop culture war that continues to this very day.
