It wasn’t even charity. Walt was a big reason the guy got rich.

It seems like Luca is a fairy tale, and so it’s understandable that people would find meaning in it what they will, especially when characters seem to genuinely be coded as gay.

If I’m following the metaphor, I think that makes the “Earwig and the Witch” Studio Ghibli’s “Around the Sun” by R.E.M.
