Rise to the Occasion

Ep 13 | How Film Shapes Our Masculinity: A Conversation with Psychologist Dr. Bryan


Listen Later

Who are the male movie characters that shaped your understanding of what it means to be a good man? That’s the question that sparked the conversation between Jack and Dr. Bryan Violette. Each of them chose four characters who shaped their view of masculinity—men like Doc Holliday, Maximus, Faramir, Everett Hitch, Sean Maguire, and Yoda. Together, they explore how art forms us, how certain stories reveal the virtues we long for, and how film can unexpectedly mentor the soul. From gunfights to fatherhood, revenge to self-mastery, this is a conversation about becoming the kind of man worth following.
