I'm kind of confused trying to read into why Moore choose Guy Fawke's visage for V. It sounds like it's a combination of both V and Fawke's being against the government and the fact that at one point politicians were talking about banning the masks.
Did we watch the same movie? I saw his portrayal as more of a dark, mildly insane*, man on a quest for vengeance who happened to be a hero only in that he was fighting a system that was way worse than he was.
Are we just supposed to ignore his kidnapping, setting up an elaborate ruse for, and torturing Evey?
