The beard in popular culture: cinema

As long as it is at least minimally provided, the beard always leaves an impression, it always has a connotation. This is even more true in the world of cinema where directors think of the smallest details to give them meaning. Let's see several of these connotations that come up frequently.

The beard of those left to their own devices

Tom Hanks in Cast Away is one of these examples. Of course, you might say, alone on a desert island losing your mind, the first reflex is not to shave or cut your hair by any means. He can only blame himself for forgetting his Caliquo razor! Product placement aside, even if the viewer does not think about the character's hygiene, this long beard really accentuates the effect of depravity of the character with his long hair as well. We can take as other examples Christian Bale in Batman Begins or the characters of the series "The Walking Dead", the growth of their beards translates in some way their moral wear.

The beard of class crooks

Let's be honest, if beards give some characters a real aura, they are very often reserved for shady characters practicing illegal activities crudely designated as "the bad guys". But the style of some is so neat, their character so well played and sophisticated that we come to appreciate them. It is not the most striking beard, but that of Jack Nicholson in The Shining is worn by a legendary character of the cinema. His beard grows at the same time as his madness increases. Another example, Christian Bale in American Hustle who plays the role of a crook

The warriors beard

The greatest of all cinematic warriors is probably Thor, even if his superhuman powers leave no chance to the competition. His long blond hair combined with his beard and his mythology make him an invincible character in the eyes of the viewer. The beard makes the warrior even more of a warrior in cinema, it gives him a psychological advantage over his enemy. We can also mention Tom Cruise in The Last Samurai, one of his most notable roles.
