Voici la partie de l'article sur Vincent Cassel dont il est question (petit exercice d'anglais ce Sunday ?).
As research for the role, Cassel hung out with shadowy international mercenaries. “Those guys have been working for everybody – Saudis, Americans, Brits, Russians whoever – and they’re really seeing what’s behind the curtain. They know all the secrets. They know what runs the world. The real dirty politics. Not the mainstream ideas that we see on the news to make us react like sheep, you know?”
What struck him most, though, is that these men don’t advertise their skillsets. “They don’t look dangerous. They have to appear as wimps at some points. You might think that you can overpower him, but you can’t. It’s another way of showing what it is to be a man. You know, being a man is not trying to be a pumped man; it’s just taking your responsibility.”
Cassel has long suspected that the pumped-up action heroes of Hollywood movies give a distorted idea of what masculinity should be. He hopes his performance, based on this research, provides a corrective to what it is to be, not just a man, but a decisive man of action.
“I mean, look at what’s happening. Instagram and TikTok is full of people giving a fake idea. Men should be like this. Women should be like this, you know? I mean, it’s a total fantasy of what sехuality should be. And we tend to forget what it’s really about. It’s about being yourself.”
He has been following the story of self-styled misogynist and social-media influencer Andrew Tate, derided by Greta Thunberg for his “small ԁіск energy” and currently facing rape and human trafficking charges in Romania. Isn’t he part of that fantasy, I ask Cassel? “There’s so many things he says, especially when you see his background that come across as really wrong. But in the middle of that, I think, he’s saying stuff that is actually interesting because he wants to defend masculinity. It’s almost shameful to be masculine these days. You have to be more feminine, more vulnerable. But listen, if men become too vulnerable and feminine, I think there’s going to be a problem.”
Isn’t there a risk that such attitudes collapse into misogyny? “I mean, I hope I’m not misogynistic. I’m surrounded by women. From morning to night, because I’ve got three daughters, a wife, an ex-wife, a mother.”

Le raisonnement n'est pas mauvais au début : il ne veut pas associer masculinité et muscles (gonflette) ce qui est courant dans le cinéma.
Ensuite, pour lui, masculinité = un homme qui prend ses responsabilités et des décisions. (C'est toujours mieux que les muscles mais bon...)
Les réseaux sociaux n'ont pas à donner des leçons de morale sur comment les hommes ou les femmes doivent se comporter. Il faut être soi-même. (C'est discutable).
Et puis, il merde en citant un influenceur misogyne et cette phrase "si les hommes deviennent trop vulnérables et féminins, je pense qu'il va y avoir un problème".
Évidemment, il va s'en prendre plein la figure ???
