Would Todd have gone nuts if he hadn't met Kurt Dussander?
I think one of the main themes of the movie is Human Evil. However, a really good question is "Whom influenced whom?"
Nevertheless, the combination of the two made for a powder keg of human evil. Kurt's inhumanity laid largely dormant until he met Todd, then it began to rise again. As for Todd I think the situation was similar with him.
However, people don't just BECOME sociopaths out of nowhere. It's usually due to some childhood abuse and other factors. But Todd had a good home life and had his every need catered too. Still, I think that he would have ended up the way he did had he not met Kurt. But it would have been a long while before he started acting evil.
But that's just my opinion and I could be totally wrong.
What do you guys think?
