...brains are not as dramatic." Guns compensate for that, Dichter adds, by serving as "a virility source. Clyde [of Bonnie and Clyde] is impotent, and he is using his gun to balance that." Indeed, Freudians point out that the gun is an obvious phallic symbol, conferring on its owner a feeling of potency and masculinity.* In a talk with French Novelist Remain Gary two weeks before he died, Robert Kennedy perceptively touched on a related aspect of the gun mystique. "I like Hemingway very much as a writer," said Kennedy, "but he was the founder of a ridiculous and dangerous...
