Shoot, Steve, it says "approval" in both the novelist's and Penn's

contacts with the family.
As a former reporter, I never was "trusted" by a subject because they knew I'd not work to get their approval: I served a different master as should Penn.
That means that Penn, if he wished, could cast the young man as a delusional, egotistical little pig who only thought of himself, bringing his miserably short life to an end after having done absolutely nothing for anyone, including himself.
A stockbroker that takes a few hours a week to help out in a soup kitchen is far more worthwhile.
Or the guy who got gobbled up by the bears; he died trying, no matter how miserably, to save those animals.
I'll go with an open mind to the work because I've surprised myself plenty, previously. One can, after all, appreciate a work of art and despise the protagonist: that's the difference between life and art, right?
