Trump: Benedict

posted by Ginger at 11:26 AM, May 19, 2005 | Filed under : NPCs , Trumps | Comments and Followups

This is the second of the phototrumps I’ve started doing for House of Cards.

BenedictI’ve always liked that image of Benedict with a tool belt. It says something to me about him that I think all the people who want to make him into a samurai are trying to say. Since I locate Amber pretty firmly in the western tradition and mythology, I reject the samurai formulation, but I like the idea that Benedict works with his hands.

Benedict is Willem Dafoe.

I think that the Visual Guide (w/ Neil Randall) firmly cemented the Benedict-samurai thing into my mind. This might be why I like the Flora trump much better.

This one is still really impressive, though.
