Is the Commodore supposed to be a cross between Noah Cross (Chinatown) and Teddy Roosevelt?
It recently hit me how the Commodore's personality, outlook, and essence could be seen/described as being a cross between Noah Cross (super rich fellow who comes off like a lovable old west type grandpa who is eventually revealed to be pure evil) and Teddy Roosevelt (similar styles of appearance - the early 1900s mustache and glasses who has a love for the outdoors and hunting).
Is this a valid thought or am I overthinking it?
