Fictional Delta Characters In Movies and Literature

[Linalee]

Bud White and Lynn Bracken in L.A. Confidential.

Not sure, but they are very aloof and at the same time very intense.
I was wondering hard for Bud's type but Lynn is clearly xNFx, i would say... INFJ
She displays little Fe despite her "job".
She shows deep Ne insight (she knows what's going to happen if X goes like this or like that, is a good strategist).
She holds on strong values : no lies ever, concern for others, a need to return to her home despite all the glorious dreams of hollywood.
She's very private and does not trust easily, except for Bud.
She does not have lavish material tastes : it's only for her business, her chambers remain simple and modest with a souvenir from her home.
Only Bud has access to her sanctuary. She feels as a hole with him. No need for words, she knows what's going on inside the man.

As for the mentioned Bud... makes me wonder. If someone's watched the movie, a little help would be appreciated

For what i've observed, he is equally low on Fe, even when he uses physical violence.
He is concerned by his intellectual abilities (wants to demonstrate proper investigations/deductions).
He's annoyed by political manipulation. Has a thing against Exley because his behaviour does not seem trustworthy (low Ne ?)
He stubbornly punishes violent husbands.
He's more concerned by getting the right thing done than doing it in a proper way. It's very efficient, with no waste of time/energy (is that Si or Se ???)
He doesn't care too much about wealth (he happily gives any money he finds to the widow, or to the poor beaten woman).
He doesn't try to convince others. They are either cooperative, or reluctant. If they are reluctant, he does not use persuasion but basic violence.

They may be aloof LSE with confident EII it's a beautiful couple anyway.



That's an exercise i like !
If my little analyses annoy you, please feel free to say so, i don't want to impose myself. It's just that i've seen none of the movie/TV shows you mention, as i'm french, so it's frustrating. I love watching delta movies actually

I'd be more inclined to put Bud as some kind of Se ego, possibly gamma > beta? Lynn is at least conceivably EII. It's been forever and a day since I've seen the movie but I can't think of anything that is startlingly against that type except for the calculated fling with Exxel, though I forget the reason behind that.

To set up Bud, so he would go and kill Exxel. Photos have been done with her and Exxel and later Bud discovered those photos "by an accident".

[Linalee]

they were manipulated by the Capt.
Lynn states clearly she was persuaded to help Bud. She wouldn't have done it otherwise.
First time i saw the movie, i wasn't particurlaly fan of this couple, but i've watched it last sunday and this time, something in her demeanor reminded me of myself ! So i've paid very close attention.
As for Bud, i can't type him. All i can say is i appreciate his no fuss behaviour and his strong values.

i think of another movie right now, but maybe i'll be wrong again... it's "Dead Poets Society". it's about finding your own path Neil Perry sounds ENFP to me.

I'd be inclined to put almost every role Crow does as some kind of Se ego, or at least Se valuing.
