![]() ![]() The first time we see Miles, he’s wearing the same outfit that Tom Cruise wore in “Magnolia,” where his character was a “motivational speaker” and pick-up artist. ![]() Andi is the odd one out, so she’s ousted from the group. Lionel is a “yes man” for all of Miles’s scientific endeavors. Birdie is a fashionista who thinks sweatshops in Bangladesh make sweatpants. Duke is a “men’s rights activist” who sells knockoff Viagra pills. Claire is a politician, which doesn’t need further elaboration. In Bron’s case, these layers are the people he surrounds himself with. But if those layers are made of glass, they expose the center and constantly run the danger of being broken. One is supposed to be transparent, and the other is supposed to be layered to conceal what’s at its center. The only problem is that people like Miles usually surround them with fake layers to slow down the process of reality hitting them in the face.Īs you probably must have figured out (because Benoit Blanc points it out, too), “glass” and “onion” are self-contradictory in nature. ![]() And there are multiple examples of that happening throughout history. But, despite realizing it on some level, Miles and his ilk never want to accept that they are putting themselves in a situation that can be “disrupted” within seconds if someone with even the slightest inkling of conscience stands up to them. This basically means that they are crossing all kinds of ethical, moral, and legal boundaries to exploit those who are not as rich as them to sustain their lives. They call themselves “disruptors” because they are destroying everything that’s synonymous with the status quo in order to create a new norm. I am sure that you’ve heard the dialogue from Raaj Kumar which is along the lines of “people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones at others.” Miles Bron and his group of “friends” personify this saying. ![]()
