Douglas is also the inspiration for Jack Crawford in Silence of the Lambs/Hannibal, though he isn't a fan of that character. “They don’t put across accurate portrayals, and [that] aggravates me,” he told The Post. “I can’t look at those movies. You see FBI agents pulling out guns and knocking down doors and taking over investigations . . . [In reality,] if you’re a cop and I work with you on a case, I help to develop a more proactive technique.” He is consulting on the Netflix series. “They’re going by the book and I am very pleased,” said Douglas. Watching the series “is like reliving my life all over again.” Also this part of a real life interview with Ed Kemper shows how spot on the actor's portrayal is: | ||

John E Douglas was ... weird to say the least: Despite these and other triumphs, the ghoulish nature of the job eventually wore Douglas down. Nightmares and sleepless nights were increasingly frequent and he found it hard to communicate with his family (“You come home and your child scrapes her knee, but you just left work today in a case where a young child was murdered and mutilated.") Under immense pressure at work, he contracted viral encephalitis – a fever which doctors said "fried his brain". His family were warned he would likely be left in a vegetative stage. He recovered, however, and was soon back hunting killers, including Unabomber Ted Kaczynski. But the psychological trauma never quite lifted and he turned in his badge for good in 1995 aged just 49. or some gossip Reddit user thebeginningistheend posits that Ford might be a functional psychopath. The user points out that Ford checks off a lot of boxes on the Hare psychopathy checklist. He's cunning, he's manipulative, and he's callous. And, he has a "grandiose estimation of self," not unlike that of his subjects. Serial killers tend to self-aggrandize, which you'll know if you watch the series (or are really into serial killers). more gossip anyway, those are pretty decent guesstimates and similar to my pov. | ||

Something psycopaths cannot have James H. Fallon here: "Fallon, who himself states that he has the neurological and genetic correlates of psychopathy (Antisocial Personality Disorder),[1] has categorized himself as a "pro-social psychopath". Low anxiety has traditionally been considered a feature of psychopathy, but there has been mixed research support for this conceptualization. We investigated the PPI-R-SF Stress Immunity subscale (a measure of low anxiety) in relation to 2 widely used self-report psychopathy scales in a sample of 346 undergraduate students. Results indicated that PPI-R-SF Stress Immunity was nearly unrelated to other indicators of psychopathy, showing a near-zero loading on the common psychopathy factor defined jointly by the scales of the PPI-R-SF and SRP-III. Stress Immunity also showed a pattern of personality and temperament correlates much different from those of other psychopathy subscales. Finally, Stress Immunity had a slight negative correlation with self-reports of diverse antisocial acts. These results suggest that despite its historical importance in the conceptualization of psychopathy, low anxiety is likely not a core feature of psychopathy. overall, psychopathy is being redefined(or at least some are trying to): Abstract The psychopathy field has long been beset by confusion and contention regarding the boundaries and features of this chimerical condition. We propose that this disagreement stems largely from the historical separation between psychopathy and basic personality psychology. Using findings from a meta-analysis of the correlations between the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R) and normal-range personality traits as a launching point, we (a) deconstruct widely used measures of psychopathy into their constituent subdimensions and (b) examine the associations of these subdimensions with higher-order and lower-order personality dimensions drawn from the Big Five and Big Three frameworks. Our review of the adult psychopathy literature reveals broad agreement that psychopathy measures are imbued with low Agreeableness and low Conscientiousness. Nevertheless, substantial disagreement revolves around the place of largely adaptive features, especially high agentic Extraversion, low Neuroticism, and high Openness, within the psychopathy construct. We propose that ongoing debates regarding the nature and boundaries of psychopathy reflect a focus on two differing operationalizations of this condition, each of which reflects a different “species” of individual. some estimate that between 30% to 40% of people are born with that "psychopathic condition" and then nurture splits them into further categories. Edit: also, the attack might not have been fear/anxiety related at all; Holden might've realized he was like Kemper.+ Show Spoiler + was pleasure, arousal; he was having a psychological orgasm | ||

But i remember that i was really fascinated by it. In my eyes, though without much further thought, it is one of the best shows made so far. The atmosphere, the pacing and the character development, all excellent imo. Especially the development of Ford seems so consistent and believable. I was and am pretty much impressed. But im certain many folks dont enjoy this show as much as i do. If you dont like slow pace, lots of dialouge and lack of action I wouldnt recommend watching it. Somewhat off Topic: On one hand, I get the impression since Breaking Bad (maybe before that idk.. dont know all shows .) ) the quality of the "best" shows seems to steadily increase. Today there are shows (mindhunter, stranger things, mr robot) that seem to reach at least partially a different level of quality in comparison to "older" shows. On the other hand, theres a shitton of awful movies. Well, to put it differently, theres a severe lack of excellent movies. Maybe it has always been that way, the good shows just standing out and pointing the finger at the crappy rest. Maybe i simply missed the good movies.. idk just a thought. | ||
